Due to the complexity of fermentation mixtures, separation of solutes and secondary substrates has a special importance. Membrane processes such as nanofiltration may offer good alternatives for the separation of fermentation products or recovery of substrates. For an efficient separation, the membrane type and operating parameters such as feed flow rate, operating pressure, and feed should be optimized. In this study the separation and recovery of sugars were targeted. It was found that with an increase of the feed flow rate, permeate flux increased since the effect of concentration polarization was minimized. As a result, experiments were carried out at the highest possible flow rate. The effect of pressure was studied at five pressures (10-50 bar). It was found that there is a linear relationship between the pressure and permeate flux up to 30 bars. Beyond 30 bars the effect of pressure became less significant. Thus, 30 bars was chosen as the operating pressure. To investigate the effect of concentration, 1 to 10 weight percentage sucrose and glucose solutions were utilized. It was observed that with an increase in concentration, permeate flux decreased and rejections increased, finally reaching a limiting value. Binary solutions of sucrose and glucose were also studied. It was seen that the separation factor slightly decreased, probably due to a glucose-sucrose interaction. Experimental data were used with a mathematical model to predict the permeate flux and rejection. Good agreement of the predicted results was obtained with the experimental data for a 500 MWCO membrane.

Estimation of Binding Constants of Cd(II), Ni(II) and Zn(II) with Polyethyleneimine (PEI) by Polymer Enhanced Ultrafiltration (PEUF) Technique
Kadioglu, Sezin Islamoglu; Yılmaz, Levent; Ozbelge, H. Onder (Informa UK Limited, 2009-01-01)
Continuous and batch processes of polymer enhanced ultrafiltration for the estimation of binding constants of divalent cadmium, nickel, and zinc ions have been elaborated. Polyethyleneimine was used as a complexation agent. Effect of pH and ionic strength on the binding ability of target metal ions to polyethyleneimine were estimated by continuous mode PEUF system. A mathematical model was developed to estimate apparent complexation constants of metal ions with PEI. The development of this model, which is i...
Effect of Feed Concentration in Equilibrium Parametric Pumps
Ghasem, Nayef; Orbey, H (Informa UK Limited, 1987-12)
The effect of high initial feed concentration in batch equilibrium parametric pumping was experimentally investigated at different bed temperatures and cycle times. The system studied was benzene-n-hexane over a silica gel bed. It was observed that the initial feed concentration which leads to the best separation is dictated by the shape of the equilibrium isotherms of the system. An increase in the temperature difference between hot and cold cycles was shown to improve the separation because it led to a mo...
EFFECT OF FEED COMPOSITION ON THE PERFORMANCE OF POLYMER-ZEOLITE MIXED MATRIX GAS SEPARATION MEMBRANES
BATTAL, T; BAC, N; Yılmaz, Levent (Informa UK Limited, 1995-01-01)
An emerging membrane morphology with future potential is mixed matrix membranes composed of two interpenetrating matrices of different materials. In this study, mixed matrix membranes of an amorphous glassy polymer(polyethersulfone) and hydrophilic zeolite (4A) were prepared. An elaborate membrane preparation technique that enables incorporation of high zeolite loading into the membrane was developed. Performance of membranes was tested by using a laboratory-scale gas separation apparatus. The permeation ra...
Use of Specifically Tailored Chelating Polymers for Boron Removal from Aqueous Solutions by Polymer Enhanced Ultrafiltration
Doganay, Ceren Oktar; Ozbelge, H. Onder; Bicak, Niyazi; AYDOĞAN, NİHAL; Yılmaz, Levent (Informa UK Limited, 2011-01-01)
Two selective functional polychelatogens, namely hydroxyethylaminoglycerol functioned poly(glycidylmethacrylate (PNS) and Poly(4-Vinyl-1,3-dioxalan-2-one-co-vinyl acetate) (COP) were synthesized and utilized in polymer-enhanced ultrafiltration (PEUF) to remove boron from the aqueous solution. The effect of operating parameters on boron retention was investigated. PNS was synthesized in three molecular weights to observe the effect of molecular weight in borate retention. Increase in pH increased boron reten...
Effect of Feed Composition on the Gas Separation Performance of Binary and Ternary Mixed Matrix Membranes
Sen, Deger; Yılmaz, Levent; Kalıpçılar, Halil (Informa UK Limited, 2013-03-01)
Binary and ternary component mixed matrix membranes comprised of zeolite 4A and p-nitroaniline (pNA) in the polycarbonate (PC) matrix were prepared and appraised in gas separation. For comparison, homogenous membranes of PC and PC/pNA membranes were also investigated. The membranes were utilized to separate binary mixtures of CO2/CH4, H2/CH4, and CO2/N2. The effect of feed composition on the separation performance of membranes was investigated. Separation factors and ideal selectivities were similar for the...
