In this research, the thermodynamics and mass transfer of CO2 absorption has been studied in a mixture of MDEA-MEA amines. A relation is presented for mass transfer flux in the reactive-absorption process. For this purpose, the effective parameters on the mass transfer flux were investigated in both liquid and gas phases. Then, using dimensional analysis with the Pi-Buckingham theorem, the effe...

Membrane contactor using amine based absorbents is an efficient technology for CO2 separation from gaseous mixtures. A novel porous polysulfone (PSF) flat membrane was prepared via non-solvent phase inversion method. The PSF membrane was modified by adding polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) to the dope solution. The fabricated membrane was used in the serpentine flow field contactor module for CO2 abs...

despite being the member of the international disarmament and non-proliferation conventions i.e. non-proliferation treaty (npt), chemical weapons convention (cwc) and biological weapons convention (bwc) which include their own specific export control regimes, some developed countries established parallel export control regimes that are against their commitments under aforementioned internationa...

an investigation on the thermal performance of the soil as geothermal heat energy storage medium has been conducted. the thermal characteristics of the soil storage and the heat transfer from a heat exchanger in the soil, surrounding and bottom surface will be discussed. this investigation forms a contribution to a project to realize such storage to be charged from a solar heating system. this ...

liquid membrane processes have attracted many interests in recent years for removal of heavy metals such as cadmium from industrial wastewaters. in this study, a modified hybrid liquid membrane system is introduced. the setup is worked by applying the water-insoluble dioctyl phthalate as the organic solvent. n-octanol and tetra butyl ammonium bromide are added to the organic phase to increase t...

exact petrography and mineral chemistry investigations of pristine and altered rocks of the post-eocene panj-kuh pluton show thatsubsequent to emplacement and crystallization, rocks were subjected to two secondary composition equivalents, sodic-calcic andpotassic alterations, respectively. fresh rocks have syenitic composition and contain plagioclase (labradorite), k-feldspar, magmaticdiopside,...

this work concerns the peristaltic flow of a williamson fluid model in an inclined asymmetric channel under combined effects of heat and mass transfer. the governing nonlinear partial differential equations are simplified under the lubrication approach and then solved analytically and numerically. the analytical results are computed with the help of regular perturbation and the numerical result...

‎the problem of two-phase mhd boundary layer flow, heat and mass transfer over a stretching sheet with fluid-particle suspension and thermal radiation has been studied. the effect of mass transfer in dusty fluid over a stretching sheet is considered for the first time. the governing equations are reduced to a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations under suitable similarity transforma...

A bioreactor refers to any manufactured or engineered device that supports a biologically active environment. These kinds of reactors are designed to treat wastewater treatment. Volumetric mass transfer coefficient and the effect of superficial gas velocity, as the most important operational factor on hydrodynamics, in three-phase airlift reactors are investigated in this study. The experiments...
