In the present study, the permeation behavior of methanol and methyl acetate in the pervaporation (PV) experiments are compared with those in vapor permeation (VP) experiments using a PVA-based composite membrane. Experiments have been carried out to study the selectivity and mass transport flux of the systems under varying operations conditions of feed temperature (40–60 °C) and feed methanol concentrations (2–34 wt%). The selected membrane was found to be methanol selective. Results show higher permeation flux but a similar separation factor for methanol in PV than in VP. For PV operation, the resulting separation factor at 60 °C shows a monotonous decrease (6.4–4.1) as the alcohol concentration in the feed mixture increases (2.3–34 wt%), whereas the total flux increases from 0.97 to 7.9 kg m−2 h−1. Based on the solution-diffusion theory, a mathematical model that describes satisfactorily the permeation fluxes of methanol and methyl acetate in both the PV and VP processes has been applied. The fluxes of both permeants can be explained by the solution-diffusion model with variable diffusion coefficients dependent on MeOH concentration in the membrane. Both PV and VP processes can be described with the same model but using different fitting parameters. 相似文献
Three manganese oxalates have been hydrothermally synthesized, and their structures determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. MnC2O4·2H2O (I) is orthorhombic, P212121, , , , , Z=4, final R, Rw=0.0832, 0.1017 for 561 observed data (I>3σ(I)). The one-dimensional structure consists of chains of oxalate-bridged manganese centers. [C4H8(NH2)2][Mn2(C2O4)3] (II) is triclinic, , , , , α=81.489(2)°, β=81.045(2)°, γ=86.076(2)°, , Z=1, final R, Rw=0.0467, 0.0596 for 1773 observed data (I > 3σ (I)). The three-dimensional framework is constructed from seven coordinate manganese and oxalate anions. The material contains extra-framework diprotonated piperazine cations. Mn2(C2O4)(OH)2 (III) is monoclinic, P21/c, , , , β=91.10(3)°, , Z=1, final R1, wR2=0.0710, 0.1378 for 268 observed data (I>2σ (I)). The structure is also three dimensional, with layers of MnO6 octahedra pillared by oxalate anions. The hydroxide group is found bonded to three manganese centers resulting in a four coordinate oxygen. 相似文献
An investigation was carried out on the performances of hydroxylbenzylthioethers employed as organic thermal stabilizers for rigid poly(vinyl chloride). The efficiency of these compounds as thermal stabilizers was evaluated by using Haake polydrive mixer and TGA. The stabilizing efficiency was compared with Ca-Zn soap and methyltin stabilizer. Hydroxylbenzylthioethers exhibit greater efficiency than both of these stabilizers. This is attributed to the ability of these compounds to prevent the formation of polyene sequences. The hydroxylbenzylthioethers-stabilized PVC showed a slightly lower glass transition temperature (Tg) in comparison with the original PVC. Hydroxylbenzylthioethers and epoxidized soybean oil (ESBO) exhibit synergistic effect on the stabilizing effect, when the mass ratios of ESBO to hydroxylbenzylthioethers are less than 0.5. 相似文献
Dynamic control and indirect absorption detection have been combined for the separation of eight small aliphatic organic acids in less than 4 min. Electroosmotic flow (EOF) coefficients in 5 mM 8-hydroxyquinoline-5-sulfonic acid (8-HQSA) (pH 3.00) and 3 mM 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid (BTA) solutions are 4.35 and 1.65·10−4 cm2/V s, respectively. In the BTA system, relatively large amounts of sodium ions adsorbed into the capillary wall are the most probable reason for the small EOF, in turn causing problems for the separation of all acids. In contrast to BTA, 8-HQSA could be used for the separation of all eight organic acids. Limits of detection of analytes are at the level of several tens of μM at pH 3.00 in the 8-HQSA system. This new technique provides several features such as high speed, reasonable resolution and sensitivity, and ease of operation. 相似文献
A study has been carried out of the adsorption of benzoic acid from cyclohexane solution onto the hydrophilic surface of calcite.
We determined initially the chemical and mineral composition of the solid, its specific surface area and its granulometry. This was followed by the determination of the enthalpies of immersion of calcite in different solvents. These thermodynamic properties gave information on the energetics of calcite—solvent interactions. In this way, we could construct a scale of affinities of the different organic molecules and water for the calcite surface. It was noted that the enthalpies were higher in unsaturated than in saturated organic solvents, and higher in water than in the organic solvents.
The adsorption isotherms and the differential molar enthalpies of displacement were determined in the presence and the absence of water. The role played by water in the adsorption of polar organic molecules from the oil phase has not been clearly explained previously. In this paper, we indicate how the presence of water can modify the adsorption of aromatic compounds on the surface of calcite. As regards the adsorption isotherms, the presence of water essentially increases the amount of adsorption. The results of the calorimetric studies were found to be surprising; we observed that the differential molar enthalpies of displacement were endothermic.
Similar experiments were carried out with dolomite and n-heptane solution and the results compared with those obtained with calcite and cyclohexane, leading to the formulation of a general model concerning the adsorption of small polar organic molecules from organic solvents onto the surfaces of the carbonates. 相似文献
Negative effects on wine quality and productivity caused by stuck and sluggish fermentations can be reduced significantly, if such problems are detected early through periodic chemical analysis. Infrared spectroscopy (IR) has been used successfully for monitoring fermentations, since many compounds can be measured quickly from a single sample without prior treatment. Nevertheless, few applications of this technology in large scale winemaking have been reported, and these do not cover the entire fermentation from must to finished wine. In this work, we developed IR calibrations for analyzing the fermenting must at any stage of fermentation. The calibration model was obtained with multivariable partial least squares and proved effective for analyzing Cabernet Sauvignon fermentations for glucose, fructose, glycerol, ethanol, and the organic acids; malic, tartaric, succinic, lactic, acetic, and citric. Upon external validation we found an average relative predictive error of 4.8%. Malic acid showed the largest relative predictive error (8.7%). In addition, external validation found that insufficient data for these calibrations made the analysis of fermenting musts using other grape varieties less reliable. 相似文献
Summary Several types of membrane have been tested for use in organic solvent flow field-flow fractionation in an asymmetric channel. The practical problems most commonly encountered were leakage of air and solvent through the support layer on which the membranes are cast, and unequal swelling of the membrane and the support layer in the organic solvent, leading to ridging of the membrane in the channel. Three types of membrane were found suitable for the separation of polystyrene standards with tetrahydrofuran as solvent. The best results were obtained with a fluoropolymer membrane. Fair agreement was found between theory and practice for the dependence of retention times on the relative molecular mass of the standards and on the flow regime. Use of scanning electron microscopy revealed that for a number of the membrane materials some pores were much larger than expected on the basis of the indicated molecular weight cut-off. Whereas these materials could not be used for the fractionation of soluble polymers, they could be applied with some success to the separation of solid latex and silica particles. A PTFE membrane could be used for the separation of latexes and silica particles suspended in acetonitrile as carrier liquid. In general, however, the retention times of these particles were shorter than theoretically predicted. 相似文献
The estimation of uncertainty in organic elemental analysis for C, H, N and S is reported. Both “bottom up” and “top down”
strategies are used for uncertainty calculations. The bottom up approach used the results of C, H, N, and S obtained from
the homogeneity study of two pure chemicals (toluene-4-sulfonamide and 4(6)-methyl-2-thiouracil). Two calibration systems,
K factor and calibration curve, were applied in this study and no significant differences were obtained. For the “top down”
approach, we used the data obtained from a proficiency test on both pure chemicals from among 45 Spanish laboratories. Both
approaches are compared and discussed below. 相似文献
