The distribution kinetics of 35 2-furylethylene derivatives in two-phase system 1-octanol-water was investigated. The transport rate parameters in direction water-1-octanol (l1) and backwards (l2) are partition coefficient P = l1/l2 dependent according to equations l1 = logP - log(βP + 1) + const., l2 = -log(βP + 1) + const., const. = -5.600, β = 0.261. Importance of this finding for assesment of distribution of compounds under investigation in biosystems and also the suitability of the presented method for determination of partition coefficients are discussed.

Rejection thresholds of eight primary alcohols applied to the tarsal chemoreceptors of the blowfly Phormia regina Meigen and the ovipositor of Gryllus assimilis Fab. have been determined. Three different solvents for the alcohols have been used: water, ethylene glycol, and mineral oil. The comparative stimulating effectiveness of the alcohols assumes a different aspect with each different solvent. In oil the range of thresholds from methanol to octanol extends over less than one log unit as compared with the corresponding thresholds in water which extend over four log units. In glycol the thresholds extend over two and one half log units only. When water is employed as a solvent, the line which describes the relationship between threshold concentration and chain length of the compound exhibits a sharp break at or near butanol. No such discontinuity is evident when glycol or oil is employed as solvent. This is offered as evidence supporting the hypothesis that the limiting mechanism in tarsal chemoreception involves a two phase system whereby highly water-soluble compounds gain access to the receptor through an aqueous phase and the larger lipoid-soluble molecules chiefly through a lipoid phase. Additional facts which support this idea are gained from data which show that the inflection in the curve occurs at different points with different species of insects and is conspicuously absent in the case of man. When thresholds in aqueous solutions are converted from molar concentrations to activities, it is clear that the relation of equal physiological effect at equal thermodynamic activities does not apply here. The lower members of the series stimulate at progressively increasing activities up to pentanol and then at progressively decreasing activities. Furthermore, the ratio of water threshold to oil threshold exhibits no obvious agreement with the water/oil partition coefficients determined experimentally. These results indicate either that the limiting process of chemoreception in these insects does not depend upon the establishment of an equilibrium or that some kinetic effect is obscuring an underlying relationship which does so depend.

AbstractNowadays ionic liquids (ILs), because of their “green” characteristics, have been used for analytical and separation processes. Therefore the partitioning of lysozyme and α-lactalbumin using aqueous two-phase systems (ATPSs) composed of an ionic liquid (chloride 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium) and inorganic salts (K2HPO4, KH2PO4) was studied. Phase equilibrium diagrams were obtained to explore the effect of the different temperatures (293.15, 303.15, 313.15, and 323.15) K and pH (7.5, 8.0, and 8.5) used for the partitioning studies. For both proteins, partition coefficients decreased with increasing temperature. The pH influenced the partition coefficients of lysozyme and α-lactalbumin. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔH◦, ΔS◦, ΔG◦) indicate thermodynamic differences between the partitioning of lysozyme and α-lactalbumin in this system. The ΔH◦, ΔS◦, and ΔG◦values of the process studied showed that this process is spontaneous. This work demonstrates the possible use of ATPSs with ILs and inorganic salts as a methodology for the partitioning of lysozyme and α-lactalbumin.

Abstract The theory presented in a companion paper is illustrated for the case of three-component, two-phase (i.e., constant-salinity) surfactant flooding. The utility of this method is that, in addition to computation of specific cases, it provides a general qualitative understanding of the displacement behavior for different phase diagrams and different injection compositions. The phase behavior can be classified as to whether the partition coefficient is less than or greater than unity. The injection composition of the slug can be classified as to whether it is aqueous or oleic and whether it is inside or outside the region of tieline extensions.The theory provides an understanding of the displacement mechanisms for the three-component, two-phase system as a function of phase behavior and injection composition. This understanding aids the interpretation of phenomena such as the effects of dispersion, salinity gradient, chromatographic separation, and polymer/surfactant interaction. Introduction The phase behavior of surfactant with oil and brine is the underlying phenomenon of most surfactant-flood design philosophies. The surfactant slugs have been formulated either as (1) surfactant in water, (2) surfactant in oil, or (3) microemulsions containing both water and oil. Recovery of oil is thought to occur by solubilization, oil swelling, miscible displacement, and/or low interfacial tensions. The low interfacial tensions occur in a salinity environment such that three phases can coexist. At higher salinities the surfactant is in the oleic phase, and at lower salinities it is in the aqueous phase.Some recent investigators have preferred designing their process at a constant salinity even though their experiments indicated better oil recovery with a salinity contrast. Glover et al. point out that the optimal salinity is not constant in brines containing divalent ions and that phase trapping can result in large retention of surfactant in a system that was at optimal salinity at injected conditions. Nelson and Pope have demonstrated that good oil recovery is possible in systems containing formation brine with 120,000 ppm TDS and 3,000 ppm divalent cations if the drive salinity is sufficiently low such that the surfactant partitions into the aqueous phase. Moreover, the peak surfactant concentration in the effluent occurred in the three-phase environment where the lowest interfacial tension usually occurs.The purpose of this work is to understand better the mechanism of multiphase, multicomponent displacement so that the phase behavior can be used to advantage. The approach used is to examine in detail the displacement mechanism and behavior of a two-phase, three-component system. This understanding will build a foundation for examining more complex systems.Earlier, Larson and Hirasaki showed effects of oil swelling and the retardation of the surfactant front due to the surfactant partitioning into the oleic phase. Recently, Larson extended the work to finite slugs including oleic slugs. He showed the conditions necessary to have miscible or piston-like displacement. His work showed that systems with large partition coefficients are more tolerant to dispersive mixing. We show in this paper that his observation was probably the consequence of having a phase diagram with a constant partition coefficient. Todd et al. show the effect of the partition coefficients on the chromatographic separation and retention for a two-component surfactant system. Pope et al. evaluated the sensitivity of the performance of a surfactant flood to a number of factors. SPEJ P. 191^
