Treatment of waters colored with methylene blue dye by vacuum membrane distillation
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
Textile industries consume large amounts of water and generate highly dye-contaminated effluents. Textile wastewaters have to be treated in order to be recycled in the process or to meet legislative requirements before ...
Neural network model-based predictive control of liquid–liquid extraction contactors
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2004 , Article)
The inherent complex nonlinear dynamic characteristics and time varying transients of the liquid–liquid extraction process draw the attention to the application of nonlinear control techniques. In this work, neural ...
Modeling, simulation and control of a scheibel liquid–liquid contactor: Part 1. Dynamic analysis and system identification
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
The liquid–liquid extraction process is well-known for its complexity and often entails intensive modeling and computational efforts to simulate its dynamic behaviour. However, rigorous mathematical models are usually ...
A novel algorithm for molecular synthesis using enhanced property operators
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2008 , Article)
Traditionally process design and molecular design have been treated as two separate problems, with little or no feedback between the two approaches. Introduction of the property integration framework has allowed for ...
A simplified method for calculating saturated liquid densities
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
A simplification for the Nasrifar–Moshfeghian (NM) liquid density correlation has been developed. A replacement for the Mathias and Copeman temperature-dependent term with the original Soave–Redlich–Kwong equation of state ...
A systematic visual approach to molecular design via property clusters and group contribution methods
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2008 , Article)
In this work, a new simple yet effective, systematic method to synthesize and design molecules is presented. Visualization of the problem is achieved by employing an annex to the recently developed property clustering ...
Review on the Use of Ionic Liquids (ILs) as Alternative Fluids for CO2 Capture and Natural Gas Sweetening
(
American Chemical Society
, 2010 , Article)
The capture of CO2 from flue gases derived from fossil-fueled power plants and the absorption of CO2/H2S for natural gas sweetening purposes are two relevant industrial problems closely related to very important environmental, ...
Structure-thermal expansivity relation for isotropic polyoxymethylene sheets
(
John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
, 1994 , Article)
A detailed parametric mapping analysis of the thermal expansion coefficient for isotropic polyoxymethylene is presented. The molecular composite model has been computerized to investigate the variation of the thermal ...
Bench-scale and packed bed sorption of methylene blue using treated olive pomace and charcoal
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2006 , Article)
A combination of olive pomace after solvent extraction and charcoal produced from the solid waste of olive oil press industry was used as an adsorbent for the removal of methylene blue (MB) dye from aqueous solutions. Batch ...
Simulation of large capacity MSF brine circulation plants
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2006 , Article)
New multistage flashing desalination units (MSF) are being constructed with large capacity that may vary from 50,000 to 75,000 m3/d. This is almost 2–3 times the conventional unit capacity of 27,000–32,000 m3/d, which were ...
