chemical wastewater treatment is one of the attracting and common methods for wastewater treatment among the currently employed chemical unit processes. the use of coagulant-flocculant compound is one of the efficient methods for separating of paint and recovery of water. in this research, it was introduced and the effect of ph on removal of solid content from solution was studied experimentall...

BACKGROUND Continuous dialysis could provide benefit by constant removal of potassium and phosphate. This study investigates the suitability of specific potassium and phosphate sorbents for incorporation in an extracorporeal device by capacity and regenerability testing. METHODS Capacity testing was performed in uraemic plasma. Regenerability was tested for potassium sorbents, with adsorption...

In this method for determining fecal lipids, feces are saponified with ethanolic potassium hydroxide, the ethanol is evaporated, and the acidified residue extracted with hexane. An aliquot of the hexane solution is then titrated with ethanolic sodium hydroxide, the solvents are evaporated, and the residue (soaps and unsaponifiable matter) is weighed. The unsaponifiable matter is extracted with ...

Vinylbenzyl chloride was grafted onto PVDF and FEP polymer films using the radiation-grafting methodology. Subsequent reaction with trimethylamine and ion-exchange with potassium hydroxide yields alkaline anion-exchange membranes that are capable of conducting hydroxide ions; such membranes may be suitable for use in low temperature direct methanol fuel cells for portable devices. The PVDF base...

Microplastics (MPs) affect plankton (a basis of the trophic chain) and planktivorous fish can ingest them through food confusion or by transmission. Consensus to determine MPs in is lacking and, so, three digestion treatments were evaluated: Alkaline (potassium hydroxide) enzymatic (protease plus lipase) digestions, both combined with a hydrogen peroxide stage; an oxidative method using surfact...
