An analysis has been performed of the continuous precipitation reactor - rotary vacuum filter system (operating at the selected negative pressure drop) on the basis of the unit output. Filtration area necessary for separation of the product from the precipitation reactor is a function of the mean residence time of suspension in the reactor, concentration of the precipitating solutions, porosity of the filtration cake and the filtration negative pressure drop. Application of the derived relations is demonstrated on the continuous precipitation of Mg(OH)2.

The Relationship

Compound hydrocyclone is an important separation equipment in oilfield waste water treatment. In order to grasp the equipment separation characteristics, its pressure field and production ability research is becoming more and more important. In the process of pressure or pressure drop deduced, the hydrocyclone’s vortex field is divided into two parts: semi-free vortex area and compulsive vortex area. In the free vortex area, the pressure and the pressure drop are all deduced by the tangential equation, the pressure gradient equation and the relationship equation of tangential velocity in the hydrocyclone body and the velocity of the rotary crib. In the compulsive vortex area, the pressure and the pressure drop are deduced by the velocity equation and the hydrocyclone’s separation equation. As to the respect of the production ability, it is fixed on the relationship of the inlet flow-rate, overflow pipe diameter, the main diameter of the compound hydrocyclone, pressure drop and the inlet liquid density. The research indicates that the pressure or the pressure drop are all connected with compound hydrocyclone’s diameter, rotary crib’s running velocity and diameter of the maximum tangential velocity track face. As the results of the research, the ascertained key operators, pressure and the pressure drop, the hydrocyclone’s production ability can provide designing consult for the hydrocyclone designers.

Differential Solubility

Single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) have drawn considerable attention from the scientific community based on their potentially unique 1-D electronic and optical properties as well as mechanical properties. These characteristics result from the one dimensional quantum wire structure of CNTs, which have the spike-like van Hove singularities (vHs) in the electronic density of states. The detailed shape of the density of states function depends sensitively on CNT type semiconducting (sem-) versus metallic (met-)), diameter and chirality. Using the preferential affinity of amines towards sem -SWNTs, our group has been able to attain bulk separation by type based on a differential solubility of SWNTs according to the amine organization interaction on the nanotube surface. It has been argued that stable dispersions of sem -SWNTs with surfactant-amines originate from the organization of the aliphatic chain along the nanotube sidewalls, along with a small amount of zwitterions. The separation of sem-enriched SWNTs assisted by octadecylamine (ODA) had been depicted in the form of either small amount of zwitterionic interaction between carboxylic acid groups of acid-purified SWNTs or the physisorption on the SWNTs sidewall, leaving met -SWNTs in the precipitate.

AbstractInfluence of model complexity on the separation equipment performance was investigated. As an example, separation of azeotrope formed by 2-methoxy-2-methylpropane and methanol was considered using butan-1-ol as an extractive solvent. Non-equilibrium model of a column for extractive distillation accounting for the mass and heat transfer rates was composed according to the rigorous Maxwell-Stefan theory. An empirical AICHE correlation was adopted for the calculation of binary mass transfer coefficients at column trays. Results of the column steady-state operation were compared with those obtained assuming different equilibrium models. Effect of the quality of the vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) description on the results of the separation simulation considering real behavior of either liquid or both equilibrium phases was tested. Real behavior of the liquid phase was computed according to the NRTL equation taking into account binary and, in some cases, also ternary equilibrium data. In case of real behavior of the vapor phase, the equation of state in the form of virial expansion was employed. Qualitative agreement was found comparing the simulation results calculated by equilibrium and non-equilibrium models of the extractive distillation column while using the same description of ternary VLE.
