Use of variable Pressure SEMs is spreading among electron microscopists The variable Pressure SEM does not necessarily require specimen Preparation such as fixation, dehydration, coating, etc which have been required for conventional scanning electron microscopy. The variable Pressure SEM allows operating Pressure of 1˜270 Pa in specimen chamber It does not allow microscopy of water-containing specimens under a saturated vapor Pressure of water. Therefore, it may cause shrink or deformation of water-containing soft specimens such as plant cells due to evaporation of water. A solution to this Problem is to lower the specimen temperature and maintain saturated vapor Pressures of water at low as shown in Fig. 1 On this technique, there is a Published report of experiment to have sufficient signal to noise ratio for scondary electron imaging at a relatively long working distance using an environmental SEM. We report here a new low temperature microscopy of soft Plant cells using a variable Pressure SEM (Hitachi S-225ON).

A theoretical post-dryout heat transfer model is developed for two-phase dispersed flow, one-dimensional vertical pipe in a post-CHF regime. Because of the presence of average droplet diameter lower bound in a two-phase sparse flow. Droplet diameter is also calculated. Obtained results are compared with experimental values. Experimental data is used two-phase flow steam-water in VVER-1200, reactor coolant system, reactor operating pressure is 16.2 MPa. On heater rod surface, dryout was detected as a result of jumping increase of the heater rod surface temperature. Results obtained display lower droplet dimensions than the experimentally obtained values.

Analysis and calculation have been conducted of the process of low-pressure reverse osmosis in the membrane apparatus of the system for recycling hygiene water for the space station. The paper describes the physics of the reverse osmosis treatment and determines the motive force of the process, which is the difference of effective pressures (operating pressure minus osmotic pressure) in the solution near the surface of the membrane and in the purified water. It is demonstrated that the membrane scrubbing action is accompanied by diffusion outflow of the cleaning agent components away from the membrane. The mass transfer coefficient and the difference of concentrations (and, accordingly, the difference of osmotic pressures) in the boundary layer of the pressure channel can be determined using an extended analogy between mass transfer and heat transfer. A procedure has been proposed and proven in an experiment for calculating the throughput of a reverse osmosis apparatus purifying the hygiene water obtained through the use of a cleaning agent used in sanitation and housekeeping procedures on Earth. Key words: life support system, hygiene water, water processing, low-pressure reverse osmosis, space station.

This paper illustrates the possibility of producing iono-molecular separations using ionic colloidal ultrafiltration membrane of polysulfone synthetic solutions of cupric ions and nitro phenols through ultrafiltration assisted by polymeric nanoparticle composites based on polysulfone. In the present work, in order to reduce the operating pressure and increase the flow of water we are using the process of ultrafiltration through a polysulfone membrane in N-methylpyrrolidone 10% prepared by coagulation in isopropanol. The nanoparticles needed in colloidal ultrafiltration had been obtained through the immersion technique of precipitation of a solution of 5% PSf in N-methyl pyrrolidone containing 3% aniline in lower alcohols: methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol, followed by the oxidation of the remaining aniline in a solution of 10% hydrochloric acid and ammonium persulfate. The Nanoparticles of polysulfone (NP-PSf) and The three obtained variants of nanoparticles composites (NP-PSf-PANI) were morphologically (SEM) and (AFM), structurally and compositionally (FTIR) characterized and the results show that nanoparticles polysulfone have a much lower range than the composites. The Possibility of copper complexation by both nitrophenols, and by nanoparticle surface probably lead to the formation of more stable aggregates in the supply, which can sufficiently justify the increased retention. The Retentions of the chemical species in question use in all the tests made the same series:R NP-PSf-PANI-M] R NP-PSf-PANI-E] R NP-PSf-PANI-P] R NP-PSf
