Performance Evaluation Of Natural Iron-Rich Sandy Soil As A Low-Cost Adsorbent For Removal Of Lead From Water, Yee Sern Ng, Bhaskar Sen Gupta, Mohd Ali Hashim Jan 2015

Performance Evaluation Of Natural Iron-Rich Sandy Soil As A Low-Cost Adsorbent For Removal Of Lead From Water, Yee Sern Ng, Bhaskar Sen Gupta, Mohd Ali Hashim

Ng Yee-Sern

Technical feasibility of natural iron-rich sandy soil as a low-cost adsorbent for removal of lead from water was investigated . The soil, which had an iron content of 3,719 mg/kg, was collected from Hulu Langat, Malaysia, and was used for adsorption studies without any surface modification through chemical treatment. The effects of pH, solution: soil ratio and initial lead concentration on the adsorption efficiency were studied using response surface methodology based on Box–Behnken experimental design. The results showed that pH of the solution had the highest impact on the adsorption efficiency whereby adsorption efficiency of 97% could be achieved at …

A Comparative Study Of Biopolymers And Alum In The Separation And Recovery Of Pulp Fibres From Paper Mill Effluent By Flocculation, Sumona Mukherjee Ms, Soumyadeep Mukhopadhyay Dr, Agamuthu Pariatamby Dr, Mohd Ali Hashim Dr, Jaya N. Sahu Dr, Bhaskar Sen Gupta Dr Jan 2014

A Comparative Study Of Biopolymers And Alum In The Separation And Recovery Of Pulp Fibres From Paper Mill Effluent By Flocculation, Sumona Mukherjee Ms, Soumyadeep Mukhopadhyay Dr, Agamuthu Pariatamby Dr, Mohd Ali Hashim Dr, Jaya N. Sahu Dr, Bhaskar Sen Gupta Dr

Soumyadeep Mukhopadhyay Dr

Recovery of cellulose fibres from paper mill effluent has been studied using common polysaccharides or biopolymers such as Guar gum, Xanthan gum and Locust bean gum as flocculent. Guar gum is commonly used in sizing paper and routinely used in paper making. The results have been compared with the performance of alum, which is a common coagulant and a key ingredient of the paper industry. Guar gum recovered about 3.86 mg/L of fibre and was most effective among the biopolymers. Settling velocity distribution curves demonstrated that Guar gum was able to settle the fibres faster than the other biopolymers; however, …

Challenges And Prospects Of Processes Utilising Carbonic Anhydrase For Co2 Separation, Patrycja Szeligiewicz, Wojciech M. Budzianowski Jan 2013

Challenges And Prospects Of Processes Utilising Carbonic Anhydrase For Co2 Separation, Patrycja Szeligiewicz, Wojciech M. Budzianowski

Wojciech Budzianowski

This article provides an analysis of processes for separation CO2 by using carbonic anhydrase enzyme with particular emphasis on reactive-membrane solutions. Three available processes are characterised. Main challenges and prospects are given. It is found that in view of numerous challenges practical applications of these processes will be difficult in near future. Further research is therefore needed for improving existing processes through finding methods for eliminating their main drawbacks such as short lifetime of carbonic anhydrase or low resistance of reactive membrane systems to impurities contained in flue gases from power plants.


Applications Of Colloidal Gas Aphrons For Pollution Remediation, Mohd Ali Hashim Dr, Soumyadeep Mukhopadhyay Dr, Jaya Narayan Sahu Dr, Bhaskar Sen Gupta Dr Jan 2012

Applications Of Colloidal Gas Aphrons For Pollution Remediation, Mohd Ali Hashim Dr, Soumyadeep Mukhopadhyay Dr, Jaya Narayan Sahu Dr, Bhaskar Sen Gupta Dr

Soumyadeep Mukhopadhyay Dr

Colloidal gas aphrons (CGAs), first described by Felix Sebba in his book "Foams and Biliquid Foams - Aphrons" in 1987, consist of a system of spherical microbubbles with diameter mostly above 25 μm and classified as kugelschaums (ball foam). They possess some colloidal properties and can be pumped at uniform rate through pipes and channels, much like liquids. Also, they have high stability due to very small size and thick surfactant shells. Research works published over the period of the past two decades indicate effective applications of CGAs for clarification of particles and microorganisms, protein separation, gas and nutrient transfer …

Modelling Of The Adsorption‐Catalytic Processes In The Multi‐Dispersed Bed, Sergey V. Zazhigalov, Natali A. Chumakova, Andrey N. Zagoruiko Jun 2011

Modelling Of The Adsorption‐Catalytic Processes In The Multi‐Dispersed Bed, Sergey V. Zazhigalov, Natali A. Chumakova, Andrey N. Zagoruiko

Andrey N Zagoruiko

The simulation work is dedicated to the multidispersed adsorption-catalytic packing, consisting of comparatively large pellets (say, 5-10 mm) of the catalyst-adsorbent and of catalytically active micro-fibers with typical thickness of ~10 microns. During the heating at the regeneration stage the micro-fiber catalyst must be heated much more rapidly than adsorbent-catalyst, due to the much higher unit outer surface area improving the heat exchange. When the adsorbent-catalyst temperature is becoming high enough for partial desorption of chemisorbed VOC, the temperature of the micro-fibrous catalyst will be already as high as necessary one for complete oxidation of desorbed VOCs. This theoretical concept …


Process Of Combined Oxidation Of Co And So2 In Waste Gases Of Non‐Ferrous Smelters At Platinum Glass‐Fiber Catalyst, Sergey V. Vanag, Andrey N. Zagoruiko Jun 2011

Process Of Combined Oxidation Of Co And So2 In Waste Gases Of Non‐Ferrous Smelters At Platinum Glass‐Fiber Catalyst, Sergey V. Vanag, Andrey N. Zagoruiko

Andrey N Zagoruiko

The work is dedicated to the development of the efficient catalyst for the oxidation of CO in presence of significant amounts of SO2. It was experimentally shown that the Pt/Zr-Si glas-fiber-based catalyst is capable to provide complete CO conversion in SO2 presence at temperatures less 300 С, at the same time showing high resistance to deactivation. Application of such catalyst in the reverse-process will allow to raise essentially efficiency of purification of waste metallurgical gases from SO2 under presence of significant amounts (up to 1-2% vol.) of CO.

Influence Of Energy Policy On The Rate Of Implementation Of Biogas Power Plants In Germany During The 2001-2010 Decade, Izabela Chasiak, Wojciech M. Budzianowski Jan 2011

Influence Of Energy Policy On The Rate Of Implementation Of Biogas Power Plants In Germany During The 2001-2010 Decade, Izabela Chasiak, Wojciech M. Budzianowski

Wojciech Budzianowski

The current article describes energy policy tools, which caused intensive development of biogas-based power generation in Germany during the 2001-2010 decade. The German system of financial support to biogas power plants is presented in details. It is shown that in Germany, i.e. in a country characterised by similar climate and potentials to renewable energy to Poland, biogas power plants cover 10,7% of electricity demands in 2010, while all renewable energy sources cover only 5,4% of electricity demands. It is emphasised that under favourable Polish energy policy, the development of biogas energy can be very rapid.
