Hydrodynamic Mode

A simple non-steady state mathematical model is proposed for the process of purification of an amino acid solution from mineral salts by the method of neutralization dialysis (ND), carried out in a circulating hydrodynamic mode. The model takes into account the characteristics of membranes (thickness, exchange capacity and electric conductivity) and solution (concentration and components nature) as well as the solution flow rate in dialyzer compartments. In contrast to the known models, the new model considers a local change in the ion concentration in membranes and the adjacent diffusion layers. In addition, the model takes into consideration the ability of the amino acid to enter the protonation/deprotonation reactions. A comparison of the results of simulations with experimental data allows us to conclude that the model adequately describes the ND of a strong electrolyte (NaCl) and amino acid (phenylalanine) mixture solutions in the case where the diffusion ability of amino acids in membranes is much less, than mineral salts. An example shows the application of the model to predict the fluxes of salt ions through ion exchange membranes as well as pH of the desalination solution at a higher than in experiments flow rate of solutions in ND dialyzer compartments.

Abstract The removal performance of nitrate using capacitive deionization (CDI) of activated carbon (AC)-based electrodes were studied. The AC electrode was prepared and the effect of cell voltage, flow rate and initial solution concentration on ion removal were investigated. Furthermore, the AC was modified with phosphoric acid (ACP) and the surface structure of AC and ACP were analyzed. The results showed that the specific surface area of AC increased by 10.71% after the modification. The mesopore ratio and micropore ratio increased by 14.69% and 24.06%, respectively. The optimal conditions of AC electrode was a voltage of 1.4 V and flow rate of 20 mL/min while the ACP electrode was a voltage of 1.4 V and flow rate of 10 mL/min. The electrosorption capacity of ACP electrode was improved and the unit of electrosorption load was high to 19.28 mg/L. For the AC or ACP electrode, the nitrate removal efficiency decreases with the increase in the initial feed solutions, but the unit electrosorption load gradually increased with the improvement of initial feed solutions' concentration and the ACP electrode was superior to the AC electrode. Therefore, the ACP electrode would be suitable for the application of CDI on the nitrate removal.

Abstract The filtration layer in a medical protective mask can effectively prevent aerosol particles that might carry viruses from air. A nanofiber/microfiber composite membrane (NMCM) was successfully fabricated by electrospinning polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibers collected on the electrified and melt-blown polypropylene (PP) nonwovens, aiming to improve the filtration efficiency and reduce the resistance of respiration of mask. A four-factor and three-level orthogonal experiment was designed to study the effect of electrospinning parameters such as spinning solution concentration, voltage, tip-collect distance (TCD), and flow rate of solution on the filtration efficiency, resistance of respiration as well as quality factor of NMC developed to predict the resistance of respiration. Experimental results demonstrated that the filtration efficiency of NMCM≥95% in comparison to that of electrified and melt-blown PP nonwovens 79.38%, which increases by 19.68%. Additionally, the average resistance of respiration is 94.78 Pa, which meets the protection requirements. Multivariate analysis of variance indicated that the resistance of respiration of the NMCM has significantly dependent on the concentration, voltage, TCD, and flow rate of the spinning solution and the quality factor of the NMCM has dependent on the resistance of respiration. The air permeability ranges from 166.23 to 314.35mm/s, which is inversely proportional to the filtration resistance. As far as the filtration resistance is concerned, the optimal spinning parameters were obtained as follows. The concentration of spinning solution is 15%, the voltage is 27 kV, the TCD is 22 cm, and the flow rate is 2.5 mL/h. The relative error of the BP neural network varies from 0.49505% to 1.49217%, i.e. the error value varies from 0.17 to1.33 Pa. The predicted resistance of respiration corresponding to the optimal process is 68.1374 Pa.

The present work aims to study forward osmosis process using different kinds of draw solutions and membranes. Three types of draw solutions (sodium chloride, sodium formate, and sodium acetate) were used in forward osmosis process to evaluate their effectiveness with respect to water flux and reverse salt flux. Experiments conducted in a laboratory-scale forward osmosis (FO) unit in cross flow flat sheet membrane cell.  Three types of membranes (Thin film composite (TFC), Cellulose acetate (CA), and Cellulose triacetate (CTA)) were used to determine the water flux under osmotic pressure as a driving force. The effect of temperature, draw solution concentration, feed and draw solution flow rate, and membrane types, were studied with respect to water flux. The results showed an increase in water flux with increasing feed temperature and draw solution concentrations In addition, the flux increased with increasing feed flow rate while the flux was inversely proportional with the draw solution flow rate. The results showed that reverse osmosis membranes (TFC and CA) are not suitable for using in FO process due to the relatively obtained low water flux when compared with the flux obtained by forward osmosis membrane (CTA). NaCl draw solution gave higher water flux than other draw solutions and at the same time, revealed higher reverse salt flux.
