Rejection of ions by NF membranes for binary electrolyte solutions of NaCl, NaNO"3, CaCl"2 and Ca(NO"3)"2 [An article from: Desalination] Feature

This digital document is a journal article from Desalination, published by Elsevier in 2006. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
Permeation experiments of binary electrolyte solutions of NaCl, NaNO"3, CaCl"2 and Ca(NO"3)"2 through three kinds of NF membranes (ESNA 1-LF, ESNA 1 and LES 90) were carried out to investigate the effects of the ionic species and their interactions on the rejections of the NF membranes. The experimental results indicate that the observed rejections of Ca^2^+ by NF membranes all slightly increased with the growth of the concentration of Na^+ and the observed rejection of Na^+ decreased with the growth of the concentration of Ca^2^+. The repulsion force of the membrane negative charges on the cation with lower charge density are weaker, thus it presents higher permeability and lower rejection. The observed rejections of Cl^- and NO"3^- by NF membranes were almost constant and hardly changed with the equivalent fractions of Cl^- and NO"3^- in binary electrolyte solutions. For charged species, the electrostatic mechanisms play a more important role in NF separation.

Defects in HIgh-k Gate Dielectric Stacks: Nano-Electronic Semiconductor Devices (NATO Science Series II: Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry) Feature

The main goal of this book is to review at the nano and atomic scale the very complex scientific issues that pertain to the use of advanced high dielectric constant (high-k) materials in next generation semiconductor devices. One of the key obstacles to integrate this novel class of materials into Si nano-technology are the electronic defects in high-k dielectrics. It has been established that defects do exist in high-k dielectrics and they play an important role in device operation. The unique feature of this book is a special focus on the important issue of defects. The subject is covered from various angles, including silicon technology, processing aspects, materials properties, electrical defects, microstructural studies, and theory. The authors who have contributed to the book represents a diverse group of leading scientists from academic, industrial and governmental labs worldwide who bring a broad array of backgrounds (basic and applied physics, chemistry, electrical engineering, surface science, and materials science). The contributions to this book are accessible to both expert scientists and engineers who need to keep up with leading edge research, and newcomers to the field who wish to learn more about the exciting basic and applied research issues relevant to next generation device technology.

This digital document is a journal article from Analytica Chimica Acta, published by Elsevier in 2004. The article is delivered in HTML format and is available in your Amazon.com Media Library immediately after purchase. You can view it with any web browser.

Description:
A photocatalytic method for the determination of chemical oxygen demand (COD) using a nano-TiO"2-K"2Cr"2O"7 system is described. The measuring principle is based on direct determination of the change of Cr(III) concentration resulting from photocatalytic oxidation of organic compounds and simultaneous photocatalytic reduction of stoichiometrically involved K"2Cr"2O"7 in the solution. The operation conditions were optimized. The determinative COD value using this method was calculated from the absorbance of Cr(III). The operational characteristics of this method were demonstrated by use of a standard glucose solution as substrate. This method was also applied to the determination of the COD of wastewater samples. The results were in good agreement with those from the conventional (i.e., dichromate) COD methods.
