Removal of iron-cyanide complexes using micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration
نویسندگان
چکیده
Micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF)-based separation of iron-cyanide complexes, ferriccyanide and ferrocyanide, was investigated in order to assess the potential of MEUF for the removal of ferriccyanide and ferrocyanide with a cationic surfactant, cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC). The removals of ferriccyanide and ferrocyanide were >99% and 99%, respectively, with the molar ratio of CPC to ferriccyanide/ferrocyanide of 3 and 4, respectively. Both the rejection and the concentration of CPC in the permeate were low enough to meet effluent standard. The MEUF process can be a good alternative to reverse osmosis or ion exchange for removal of iron-cyanide complexes. © 2004 SDU. All rights reserved.

Removal of Manganese from an Aqueous Solution Using Micellar-Enhanced Ultrafiltration (MEUF) with SDS Surfactants
In the present study, micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) was used to remove manganese (Mn) (II) from synthetic wastewater. The effects of different operational conditions on the filtration performance of MEUF or the membrane were studied. It was found that the transmembrane pressure has a major influence on the permeate flux and an insignificant effect on the rejection coefficient. The pe...

Separation performances of micellar enhanced ultrafiltration process in Cr(III) and Cr(VI) removal has been evaluated. The neat as well as sulfonated and aminated derivatives of polyethersulfone were tested as the material for membrane preparation while hexadecylpyridine chloride and sodium dodecyl sulfate served as surfactant. It was shown that modified membranes can better reject both forms o...

Iron, cobalt and copper are metals, which appear together in many real samples, both natural and artificial. Recently a classical univariate micellar colorimetric method has been developed for determination of these metal ions. The organized molecular assemblies such as micelles are used in spectroscopic measurements due to their possible effects on the systems of interest. The ability of mi...
