Osmosis through the Skin
نویسنده
چکیده
V/ I do not know if there is any literature on the subject, and this is my excuse for publishing the results of a few observations made on the subject during the treatment of certain diseases. On the 2nd September, 1916, a patient was brought to the hospital 'with general anasarca. The case was diagnosed as one of Bright's disease. He was given the usual treatment of purgatives without effect. The, tension of the fluid in the skin was very great, so much so that fluid appeared to be on the point of bursting through the skin of some parts of the body, such

The Effect of Osmotic Dehydration on Reverse Osmosis Membrane Performance
Akin type (asymmetric) reverse osmosis membranes undergo an irreversible osmotic dehydration upon coming into contact (skin side) with salt solutions. The extent of consequent changes (in appearance; decrease in linear dimension, water flux and salt rejection) are dependent on the salt concentration. These observations are correlated with the expected morphological changes taking place duri...
متن کاملChromium removal and water recycling from electroplating wastewater through direct osmosis: Modeling and optimization by response surface methodology
Background: Considering the carcinogenic effects of heavy metals, such as chromium, it is essential to remove these elements from water and wastewater. Direct osmosis is a new membrane technology, which can be a proper alternative to conventional chromium removal processes. Methods: The wastewater samples were collected from an electroplating unit, located in Alborz industrial city, Qazvin, Ir...
متن کاملغلیظ آب Steep (خیسانده ذرت) با استفاده از غشاء اسمز معکوس
Corn steep water as effluent which arrives in environment from starch processing industry has adverse effects on the environment and also large volume of fresh water is wasted. Corn step water is composed of high concentration of proteins, sugar, starch, vitamin and minerals, so it can be used as substrate for production of biological products. Hence, corn steep water concentration is important...
متن کاملA numerical study of the effect of channel spacers on the performance of cross-flow forward osmosis membrane modules
In this paper, we perform two-dimensional simulations of cross-flow forward osmosis (FO) membrane modules in the presence of draw and feed channel spacers. For this purpose, the equations corresponding to the conservation of mass, momentum, and convection-diffusion for the mass fraction of solute are solved using a commercial finite volume flow solver. We consider six configurations of channel ...
متن کاملVarious Approaches to Thermodynamic Optimization of a Hybrid Multi-effect Evaporation with Thermal Vapour Compression and Reverse Osmosis Desalination System Integrated to a Gas Turbine Power Plant
This paper investigates the simulation of a hybrid desalination system composed of multi-effect evaporation with thermal vapour compression desalination (METVC) and reverse osmosis (RO) plant. The hybrid desalination system is also integrated with a gas turbine power plant through a heat recovery steam generator (HRSG). First, a comprehensive Thermodynamic model for HRSG, METVC, and RO are deve...
