The interfacial polymerization (IP) of piperazine (PIP) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) has been extensively utilized to synthesize the nanofiltration (NF) membrane. However, it is still a huge challenge to monitor the IP reaction, because of the fast reaction rate and the formed ultra-thin film. Herein, two effective strategies are applied to reduce the IP reaction rate: (1) the introduction of hydrophilic interlayers between the porous substrate and the formed polyamide layer; (2) the addition of macromolecular additives in the aqueous solution of PIP. As a result, in-situ FT-IR spectroscopy was firstly used to monitor the IP reaction of PIP/TMC reaction system, with hydrophilic interlayers or macromolecular additives. Moreover, we study the formed polyamide layer growth on the substrate, in a real-time manner. The in-situ FT-IR experimental results confirm that the IP reaction rates are effectively suppressed and the formed polyamide thickness reduces from 138±24 nm to 46±2 nm. Furthermore, the optimized NF membrane with excellent performance are consequently obtained, which include the boosted water permeation flux about 141~238 (L·m2·h/MPa) and superior salt rejection of Na2SO4 > 98.4%.

Abstract The study investigates the kinetics of free chlorine depletion in tap water from the Sofia distribution network. The overall decay rates, the bulk reaction rate coefficient, the wall reaction rate coefficient and the influence of mass transfer have been determined in a laboratory pipe section reactor (PSR), testing an old decommissioned metallic pipe. In total, 23 series of experiments were performed under different initial free chlorine concentrations and different hydraulic conditions. The applicability of different chlorine decay mathematical models has been investigated. A new model was proposed, combining zero order bulk reactions and first order wall reactions, describing the laboratory results with Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficients over 0.99. The obtained values for the wall reaction coefficient vary in the range 0.008–0.030 m/h, decreasing exponentially with increasing initial chlorine concentration.

We review recent developments in the study of the diffusion reaction system of the type A+B→C in which the reactants are initially separated. We consider the case where the A and B particles are initially placed uniformly in Euclidean space at x>0 and x<0 respectively. We find that whereas for d≥2 a single scaling exponent characterizes the width of the reaction zone, a multiscaling approach is needed to describe the one-dimensional system. We also present analytical and numerical results for the reaction rate on fractals and percolation systems.


The paper presents an analytical solution for the dispersion of a solute in a liquid flowing between two parallel plates in the presence of an irreversible first-order chemical reaction. The effects of both homogeneous and heterogeneous reactions on the dispersion are studied under isothermal conditions. It is found that for homogeneous reaction in the bulk of the liquid, the effective Taylor diffusion coefficient decreases with increase in the reaction rate constant. Further for heterogeneous reaction at the catalytic walls, Taylor diffusion coefficient is also found to decrease with increase in the wall catalytic parameter for fixed reaction rate constant corresponding to the bulk reaction.

Rates of isomerization, epimerization, and degradation reactions were measured for cellobiose (7), cellobiulose (8), and 4-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-D-mannose (9) at 0.001 M in 1 M NaOH under N2 in the dark at 22 °C. Reaction system resolution was by column chromatography on anion resins in the borate form. Assay for D-glucose (1), D-fructose (2), D-mannose (3), and 7,8, and 9 was by continuous automated colorimetry of column effluent with orcinol–sulfuric acid as reagent. Reaction rate constants (h−1) found: k78 0.078, k79 0.0005, k7,10 0.002, k87 0.022, k89 0.003 k81 0.065, k8,12 0.023, k97 0.002, k98 0.013, k9,11 0.006 where 10,11, and 12 are other products than 1,2,3,7,8, and 9. Details for preparation of 8 and 9 are given.

AbstractAcetates of glycerol have been produced in a heterogeneous reaction system using acidic ion-exchange resin catalysts; Amberlyst-15 (A-15), Amberlyst-16 (A-16), Amberlyst-36 (A-36), Amberlite-IR 120 (A-IR 120) and Relite-EXC8D (R-EXC8D). Effect of reaction temperature on glycerol conversion and product (mono, di and tri glycerol acetates) selectivities were investigated via reaction experiments conducted with glycerol to acetic acid initial molar ratio (G/Ac) of 1/6. Increase in glycerol conversion with an increase in temperature was observed for all catalysts. Among the catalysts investigated, R-EXC8D exhibited the highest activity in the temperature range of 95–150°C. Reaction was completed within a 25 minute short time period.
