Electro-osmotic pumping of sodium chloride solutions

چکیده
Electro-osmotic pumping (EOP) theory and its characteristics (transport numbers, brine concentration, current density, current efficiency, electro-osmotic coefficients, etc.) of Selemion AMV and CMV ion-exchange membranes were studied. The brine concentration increased with increase in current density and feed water concentration. Current efficiency was nearly constant in a wide range of current densities and feed water concentrations. The water flow through the membranes also increased with increasing current density and feed water concentration. The increase in water flow increased the current efficiency significantly. Consequently, water flow through electrodialysis (ED) membranes had a positive effect on ED. Electro-osmotic coefficients decreased with increasing feed water concentration. Osmotic flow in EOP-ED decreased relative to the total flow with increasing current density while the electro-osmotic flow increased relative to the osmotic flow. Osmotic flow significantly contributes to the total water flow in EOP. Selemion AMV and CMV membranes performed well for salt concentration. A simple membrane potential measurement has been demonstrated to function reasonably satisfactorily to predict membrane performance for salt concentration.

Haemolytic effects of hypo-osmotic salt solutions on human erythrocytes.
BACKGROUND While it is well known that hypotonic solutions of sodium chloride induce hemolysis, the effects of other salt solutions on human erythrocytes have not been well documented. OBJECTIVE The study is to compare the effects of other salt solutions on human red cells. METHODS Iso-osmotic and hypo-osmotic solutions of various salts were prepared after taking into account their molecula...
متن کاملElectrolyte Depedence of Ac Electro-osmosis
This paper reports the first investigation of the dependence of AC electro-osmosis (ACEO) on the solution chemistry. It is argued that classical dilute-solution theory breaks down in ACEO, since the large applied voltage leads to ion crowding near the electrode surfaces. A modified theory is proposed with steric effects (finite ion sizes) and a charge-dependent viscoelectric effect, which predi...
متن کاملNovel two-step release system for the traditional Chinese medicine compound Danshen.
A novel two-step release system for the traditional Chinese medicine compound Danshen was developed by combining an effervescent osmotic pump tablet (EOPT) and a pulsed-released tablet (PT) of compound Danshen into one hard capsule. The EOPT of Danshen was prepared with sodium chloride, mannitol, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), and sodium bicarbonate as osmotic agents. The osmotic pressure...

In this article, the electro-osmotic flow of Oldroyd-B fluid in a circular micro-channel with slip boundary condition is considered. The corresponding fractional system is represented by using a newly defined time-fractional Caputo-Fabrizio derivative without singular kernel. Closed form solutions for the velocity field are acquired by means of Laplace and finite Hankel transforms. Additionally...

The understanding of electrokinetic transport of fluid or particles in microchannel plays an important role in the design and the optimization of microand nanofluidic devices. Two important electrokinetic phenomena are electro-osmosis and electrophoresis. In order to study these phenomena, the lattice Boltzmann solver is coupled with the iteration solver for the Poisson equation. Using these nu...
