Removal of chloride impurities from titanium sponge by vacuum distillation

Boron removal from aqueous solution by direct contact membrane distillation.

The removal of boron from aqueous solution by direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) was studied with self-prepared polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber membranes in the present work. The effect of pH, boron concentration, temperature and salt concentration of the feed solution on the boron rejection was investigated. The experimental results indicated that boron rejection was less ...

Evaluating the Products Quality of the Vacuum Distillation Unit by Using MFCA Method

The distillation unit is one of the main units in refning companies, and it serves as the mother unit in any refnery with any degree of complexity. The optimization of this unit can increase productivity. In this study, the vacuum distillation unit of a refnery was selected as the case study. The shares of different expenses of this unit were clarifed using a novel material flow cost accoun...

Vacuum Booster for Distillation Process

Relative volatilities of ionic liquids by vacuum distillation of mixtures.

The relative volatilities of a variety of common ionic liquids have been determined for the first time. Equimolar mixtures of ionic liquids were vacuum-distilled in a glass sublimation apparatus at approximately 473 K. The composition of the initial distillate, determined by NMR spectroscopy, was used to establish the relative volatility of each ionic liquid in the mixture. The effect of alkyl ...

Removal of Impurities fromWaste Oil by Combination of Eggshell and Eggshell's active Carbon for Biodiesel Production

Waste oil is an inexpensive source for biodiesel production, but the high amount of impurities present (free fatty acids, oxidation products) impedes its practical application. The aim of this work is to assess the purification efficiency of the adsorption process with eggshell and its active carbon. Carbonization of eggshell was done at 200 ºC for 4 hours. For activation of the resultant carbo...
