Koehler, G.D., Chipley, D. and Kyser, T.K., 1991. Measurement of the hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions of concentrated chloride brines and brines from fluid inclusions in halite. Chem. Geol. (Isot. Geosci. Sect.), 94: 45-54. Solutions of l-5 m NaCI, KCl, CaC12 and MgC12, and synthetic brines were analyzed for hydrogen and oxygen isotopic compositions by vacuum distillation-microequilibr...

In this critical review, the significance of the term 'activity' is examined in the context of the properties of aqueous solutions. The dependence of the activity of water(l) at ambient pressure and 298.15 K on solute molality is examined for aqueous solutions containing neutral solutes, mixtures of neutral solutes and salts. Addition of a solute to water(l) always lowers its thermodynamic acti...

in last decade it is almost impossible to not seen anything about water resource crisis and water shortage in natural resources exploitation and use reports. such information encourages decision makers and researchers to looking for solutions in relation to this problem and sustainable management of water resources. in this regard, first step towards sustainable management of water resources is...

This study presents the effects of storage duration and temperature of Moringa oleifera stock solution on its coagulation efficiency. Moringa oleifera stock solutions, which were kept at room temperature (28°C), were able to remove turbidity from medium, high and very high turbidity water samples and no coagulation activity was observed for low turbidity water and surface water tested. The high...

The effects of positively charged nylon and depth (cellulose-diatomaceous earth) filters on endotoxin removal from various solutions were evaluated. The charged filter media removed significant amounts of Escherichia coli and natural endotoxin from tap water, distilled water, sugars, and NaCl solutions; no significant removal of endotoxin was observed with negatively charged filter media. The e...

Rat renal cortical and medullary tissues show a marked elevation of relative water content when immersed in "physiological solutions" containing sodium and chloride ions, or in equally concentrated solutions of monosaccharides. In contrast to this, no increase in relative water content occurs in isosmotic solutions of three disaccharides studied. It appears to be unlikely that the fluid uptake ...

the traditional measurement methods of 3 kinds of aluminum species and the total aluminum content in polyaluminum solutions are al-ferron timed complex spectrophotometry and edta chelatometry respectively. but eachof these methods has different deficiencies. in this paper, microwave digesting technical had be coupled with the radiate ferron spectrophotometry to rapid mensurate the concentration...

Glass transition behavior of ternary disaccharide-ethylene glycol-water solutions, in reference to that of the binary combinations, has been investigated towards a better understanding of their cryoprotective ability. In water-deficient solutions, the disaccharides, including trehalose, sucrose and maltose, can associate with more than 100 ethylene glycol molecules to form amorphous complex, on...
