Washing theory for nonequilibrium stages

1996-06-01
Tosun, I
A new approach for the determination of concentrations in the case of nonequilibrium washing stages is presented. Each washing stage is assumed to consist of series of mixing cells, and the conservation of solute mass is solved by Laplace transformation. The simplicity of the resulting equations makes this approach more practical than the existing one.

Pulse-response study for the humidity effect on sorption of ethyl bromide on clays
Yasyerli, N; Dogu, G; Doğu, Timur; McCoy, BJ (Wiley, 1999-02-01)
The effects of relative humidify on sorption and the diffusion of ethyl bromide in kaolinite and montmorillonite pellets were investigated by the one-sided single-pellet moment technique. Montmorillonite demonstrated a higher water affinity than kaolinite, causing a sharper decrease of the ethyl bromide adsorption equilibrium constant with an increase of relative humidity. For montmorillonite, most of the active sites are covered by water even at relative humidities of 8%, and adsorption of ethyl bromide on...
Dynamic analysis of changes in diffusion and sorption parameters in the reaction of SO2with activated soda ash
Doǧu, Gülsen; Keskin, Alne; Doǧu, Timur (Wiley, 1988-8)
Variations in pore structure cause significant changes in diffusion resistance and adsorption characteristics during the reaction of SO2 with activated soda. Breakthrough and moment analysis of the SO2‐activated soda ash reaction showed that the effective diffusion coefficient of SO2 in the solid product (mostly Na2SO3) was about three times smaller than its value in the original activated soda. About 30% of the diffusion flux of SO2 in the solid product was found to be due to surface diffusion. The adsorpt...
Flow sheet optimization by the concept of sustainable development: alumina industry
Kurucak, Abdurrahman; Gürüz, Güniz; Department of Chemical Engineering (2010)
In this study, effects of changes in various parameters of the Bayer process on the amount of “red mud”, which has many environmental drawbacks, were examined in accordance with the principles of “sustainable development”. The production process of Seydişehir Aluminum Plant is modeled as a case study. First a steady-state mass balance calculation is carried out by incorporating sequential modular approach. Then a model of the Bayer process digester is programmed and several simulations are carried out using...
Surfactant modified zinc borate synthesis and its effect on the properties of PET
Baltaci, Berk; ÇAKAL, GAYE ÖZGÜR; Bayram, Göknur; Eroglu, Inci; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2013-08-01)
Zinc borate was prepared from the reaction of zinc oxide and boric acid in the absence or presence of cumene terminated poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride), PSMA, added as a surfactant at varying concentrations (0.1-1 wt.% of water) to the reaction medium to investigate its effect on the growth and agglomeration of particles during reaction. Synthesized zinc borates were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in comparison to unmodifie...
Comparison of Fenitrothion and Trifluralin Adsorption on Organo-Zeolites and Activated Carbon. Part II: Thermodynamic Parameters and the Suitability of the Kinetic Models of Pesticide Adsorption
LÜLE ŞENÖZ, Güzide Meltem; Atalay, Mustafa Ümit (Informa UK Limited, 2014-07-04)
The suitability of two kinetic models and the thermodynamic parameters of pesticide adsorption were investigated based on obtained data of previous studies. Kinetic evaluation indicated that the pesticides adsorption on adsorbents followed the pseudo-second-order model. Gibbs free energy (Delta G degrees), enthalpy (Delta H degrees), and entropy (Delta S degrees) were calculated for thermodynamic parameters by using linearized Arrhenius equation. The results indicated that the sorption process of fenitrothi...
