mobile carrier properties of two schiff base ligands, named bis(2-hydroxypropiophenone)-1,2-propanediimine (n2o2) and bis(1'-hydroxy-2'-acetonaphthone)-2,2'-diiminodiethylamine (n3o2), dissolved in dichloromethane for the extraction of copper(ii) ions from an ammonium buffer feed phase into a nitric acid solution (receiving phase) were investigated and compared. the parameters influencing the t...

Understanding the lateral organization in plasma membranes remains an open problem and is of great interest to many researchers. Model consisting coexisting domains are commonly used as simplified models membranes. The coarse-grained (CG) Martini force field has successfully captured spontaneous separation ternary into a liquid-disordered liquid-ordered domain. With all-atom (AA) models, howeve...

Since membrane separations, such as vapor permeation (VP) or pervaporation (PV), are not limited by vapor-liquid equilibrium, their coupling with distillation can exert a synergistic effect, overcome the thermodynamic limits of distillation, and improve energy efficiency, especially suitable for separation azeotropic mixtures that otherwise requires special processes. Therefore, there is an inc...

The reduction of fossil CO2 emissions from key relevant industrial processes represents an important environmental challenge to be considered. To enable large-scale deployment low carbon technologies, a significant research and development effort is required optimize the capture systems. This work assesses various hybrid solvent-membrane configurations for post-combustion decarbonization coal-b...

Hybrid processes have received more attention in pollutant removal due to the combination of advantages each process. A membrane combined with absorption was developed and studied for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from lab industrial scale. The ionic liquid containing 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethyl sulfonyl)imide ([Bmim][NTf2]) showed competitive on toluene. An industrial-l...

This research addresses the extraction and recovery of nickel ions from real electroplating wastewater using SLM process. The process involves three main phase system which are feed, organic and stripping phase. The feed phase containing the nickel electroplating wastewater whereas the organic phase containing the liquid membrane which was immobilized in the membrane support. The liquid membran...

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 ...

Membrane processes are used in various felds such as the environment, agriculture and different industrial sectors. These clean techniques are often adopted for directed processes such as treatment, recovery, valorization and separation. In this review article, the theoretical principles and the different classifcations of liquid membranes, such as supported liquid membra...
