G-100 is used for higher molecular mass proteins. The solutions of proteins are prepared in guanidine hydrochloride (10 mg mL ), and cytochromec (10 mg mL ) is used as an internal standard. Descending chromatography is carried out at room temperature under an inclination angle of 253 to the horizontal. After 3 h of development the quotient Rs protein/Rs cytochrome c is calculated for each prote...

This paper focuses on the effects of the addition of an ionic liquid, 1-Allyl-3-butylimidazilium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide ([ABIM]TFSI), which has a high affinity for benzene, into the poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membrane on the pervaporation characteristics of the removal of benzene from aqueous solutions of dilute benzene. When aqueous solutions of 100～500 ppm benzene were permeated ...

A pervaporation process was applied to the separation of different mixtures of aromatic Csisomers using a dense homogeneous polyethylene membrane. The influence of feed temperature and downstream pressure on the flux of pure components was investigated. For mixtures, the effect of feed composition on permeation rates and separation characteristics was determined. Molar fluxes and separation fac...

By using binary ethanol/water mixtures, the separation performance of two improved commercial pervaporation embranes (PERVAPTM) are presented. Separation performance data are analyzed and compared as a function of operating conditions. The effect of initial feed concentration on the separation performance and the effect of feed concentration on apparent activation energy are presented. For memb...

Within the prospect to develop a more sustainable solution for membrane fabrication sector, this work aims investigate new combination of bio-based materials, including polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) as polymer and Cyrene™ solvent, phase inversion process. The herein studied poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBHV) is microbial biopolymer with excellent biocompatible, biodegradable solvent ...

This study reports the analysis and design of a liquid phase esterification process to convert acetic acid with isoamyl alcohol into acetate via reactive pervaporation, in presence an Amberlite IR-120 ion exchange resin catalyst. To accomplish this, catalytic reactor is coupled separation membrane unit (Pervaporation Membrane Reactor (PVMR)). In proposed unit, chemical reaction equilibrium favo...

Lignin, a biomass material, is employed as the effective material for building up separative layer of thin-film composite membranes pervaporation desalination.

A graphene oxide (GO) membrane is supported on a ceramic hollow fiber prepared by a vacuum suction method. This GO membrane exhibited excellent water permeation for dimethyl carbonate/water mixtures through a pervaporation process. At 25 °C and 2.6 wt % feed water content, the permeate water content reached 95.2 wt% with a high permeation flux (1702 g m(-2) h(-1)).
