membrane technology is used to separate water or solvents from salts or pollutants. this technique could be used for water treatment. for using of polyether sulfone (pes) hollow fiber membranes in water treatment processes, the pes hollow fiber membranes were prepared by dry-wet spinning method and heated in an oven at: 120°c, 150°c and 180°c. the effect of heating on performance of membranes w...

large unilamellar liposomes and multilamellar vesicles consisting of dmpc interacted with cationic phosphorus-containing dendrimers cpds g3 and g4. dsc and ζ -potential measurements have shown that liposomal-dendrimeric molecular recognition occurs due to the interaction between the complementary surface groups. calorimetric studies indicate that the enthalpy of the transition of the lipids tha...

the reported work is on the preparation and characterization of polyvinyl alcohol -g- polyacrylic acid (pva-g-paa)/ polybenzimidazole sulfone (pbis) cation exchange membrane used for the electro dialysis of sodium chloride solution. the polymer syrup has been prepared using the grafting method with the help of polyvinyl alcohol and polyacrylic acid in the presence of water solvent. the polymer ...

a membrane bioreactor (mbr) system based on a dead-end immersed hollow fiber membrane and filamentous fungus aspergillus oryzae were used for treatment of baker’s yeast wastewater. the fungus was adapted to the wastewater in the bioreactor for two weeks before starting the continuous process. average organic loading rate of 4.2 kg cod/m3.d was entered the bioreactor. mbr system was able to redu...

a pvc-based membrane containing cerium phosphate was developed. unlike the cerium phosphate itself that acts as a cation exchanger, the membrane exhibited anion-exchange properties. therefore, the utility of this compound as a sensory element for detection of molybdate ions was pursued. the response of molybdate selective electrode based on this membrane was perfectly linear in the concentratio...

Introduction: Sharp et al. [1] determined that the δCl value of carbonaceous chondrites, mantle samples and crustal materials are all close to 0‰ (Fig. 1). There are some small but significant variations. For example, sodalite inclusions in CAIs from Allende are distinctly negative. These samples were measured with an ion probe, as opposed to gas source mass spectrometry, nevertheless they were...

the polysulfone-based membrane has been used in hemodialysis (hd) and it is continuously developed to maintain its sustainability on the subject of biocompatibility. during the polysulfone-based membrane development, several parameters should be considered to improve the membrane performances, such as excellent biocompatibility, appropriate ultrafiltration rate, and effective clearance of the t...

The strong interest in the coherent generation and guiding of x rays is well known. Many papers have recently appeared treating different concepts of stimulated x-ray emissions, 1-3 and x-ray guiding in thin films was achieved. 4 Crystals were suggested as end reflectors to generate feedback.' Here we suggest a different type of cavity using zeolite crystals that would guide the emitted x-rays ...
