Correlation And Prediction Of Vapor-Liquid Equilibrium In Electrolytic Solutions, Anil Krishna Rastogi

Dissertations

Two expressions for the excess Gibbs free energy are presented which correlate and predict vapor-liquid equilibrium and the mean molal activity coefficient of an electrolyte in a ternary mixture containing water and either MeOH or EtOH. The proposed equations take into account coulombic forces between ions and the physical interaction forces between ion-solvent and solvent-solvent molecules in a solution.

Model #1 is a combination of an extended Debye and Huckel equation and the local composition of non-random two liquid (NRTL) model. A ternary mixture requires six adjustable binary parameters to predict activity coefficients. These six parameters are evaluated from three …

Separation Of Proteins Via Continuous Ph Parametric Pumping, Steve Wu

Dissertations

This dissertation covers the separation of proteins via recuperative mode pH parametric pumping. Continuous pH parametric pumping separations using the model system haemoglobin and albumin on a CM-Sepharose cation exchanger have been experimentally and theoretically investigated.

The pH parametric pumping system has a feed containing the protein mixture to be separated, introduced alternately to the top and bottom of the column. The top and bottom products are withdrawn from the apparatus during the bottom and top feed, respectively. Both equilibrium and nonequilibrium cases were considered, and theoretical results agreed with the experimental data.

Buffer concentration, flow rate, reservoir displacement, and …

Separation Via Multi-Column Ph Parametric Pumping, Wei Tai Yang

Dissertations

This thesis presents the study of multi-column pH parametric pumping, a separation technique which applies the principle of parametric pumping and uses pH as control variable. Studies emphasize the mass transfer and the capability of separation by multi-column pH parametric pumping. Many operation modes of multi-column pH parapump are developed for varied objectives of separation. A Two-pH Levels Parapump is capable of enriching the product stream with solute components; a Three-pH Levels Parapump is capable of splitting components into two product streams. The separation capability of multi-column parapump is greatly superior to that of single-column parapump. As compared to cycling …

The Effects Of Rules And Videotape Training On Complex Observation Skills, Gerald L. Shook

Dissertations

The present study evaluated the effectiveness of rules and videotape training on the acquisition, maintenance, and generalization of complex behavioral observation skills. A multiple baseline design across two groups of subjects (N = 17) was used. An initial pretest probe measured subjects' ability to score adult and child behavior shown in a set of five, 15- to 20-second videotape episodes. Child behavior was rated as appropriate, inappropriate, or unacceptable. The subsequent adult behavior was rated as correct or incorrect, as a function of the child behavior, in five categories: vocalization, eye contact, facial expression, physical contact, and back-up consequence. Mean …

Developmental Counseling And Psychotherapy: Applying The Theories Of Piaget, Perry, Kohlberg And Erikson, Toni Perior Gross

Dissertations

While developmental theories have been used as a diagnostic tool in counseling adults, they do not seem to have been used as a basis for treatment. The author reviews the theories of Piaget, Kohlberg, Perry and Erikson and abstracts from them a series of basic statements and corollaries that form the core of a theory of developmental counseling and psychotherapy.

With these statements as a background, the author discusses the persons involved in therapy, the purposes of therapy, and the stages of therapy. In the considerations on the initial stage of therapy, emphasis is placed on the responsibility of the …

The Effects Of Accreditation By The North Central Association On The Organization, Administration And Programs Of Selected Accredited Michigan Public Community Colleges, Margaret A. Crishal

Dissertations

Purpose. The purpose of the study was to determine the impact the self-study and accreditation process had on the administration and management of selected accredited Michigan public community colleges. The study investigated the following questions: 1. Does accreditation bring about educational improvements? 2. Does accreditation protect the various publics which educational institutions serve? 3. Is accreditation a catalyst for educational change? 4. Does accreditation provide the spark which results in educational services of superior quality? Five categories of possible improvements and/or change which might result from an accreditation process were investigated: goals and objectives of the institution; curriculum, instruction and/or …
