A simple and cost effective solid-phase microextraction device has been developed. Fused-silica capillaries were etched with ammonium hydrogen difluoride prior to coating with an ionic liquid. For comparison, both a bare fused-silica capillary and one pretreated with a Nafion membrane were coated with the ionic liquid. All three coated capillaries were employed for the head space microextractio...

Polyvinyl chloride supported silver molybdate composite material is used to develop by solution casting method. This membrane was characterized by various instrumental techniques such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses. These characterizations are used to understand the functional groups,thermal sta...

New polyoxadiazole-based supported ionic liquid membranes were designed and elaborated for the first time to be used as a middle- high-temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell application. The proposed molecular design combined hydroxyl-functionalized sulfonated polyoxadiazole, hydrophilic polyvinylpyrrolidone specific protic liquid, thus allowing elaboration of with remarkable physic...

The solubility ternary system was used to develop a hollow fiber-supported liquid membrane process for the extraction of gold (I) cyanide from electronics industry wastewater. Five kinds diluents (p-xylene, cyclohexene, 1-dodecanol, n-heptane, and n-dodecane) were applied systems (Aliquat336 + water diluents) at 303.2 K atmospheric pressure. p-xylene, cyclohexane selected because they are compl...

Numerous researches have been investigated on the mass transfer phenomena and hydrodynamics for the fluid in the vicinity of the membrane surface by the mathematical modelling and simulation. Due to complexities involved in solving transport phenomena within membranes, the application of CFD simulation study for determining the concentration polarization (CP) profile in the membrane channel is ...
