First, around 10 g of each oil was treated with 400 mL of n-heptane in a reflux setup at 98˚C for three hours. The collected mixture was kept to settle for 24 h, and then solids were separated by filtration (Whatman grade 42) and washed with additional n-heptane until the eluent...
Water will at the same time provide shielding and trap released radionuclides which can be later removed by filtration. While water can be somewhat corrosive, careful control of water chemistry means that corrosion can be held in check for significant lengths of time with some AGR fuel having ...
Vacuum-suction filtration, a simple and established method of membrane preparation, has been used to deposit nanomaterials dispersions into the porous substrate surface [29,30]. From the perspective of fabricating TFC or thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes, it can be utilized not only to effect...
Hence, PVDF has been treated to improve the hydrophobicity for membrane distillation and CO2 absorption [24,39,62] or to induce hydrophilicity for filtration processes and enhance the fouling resistance [42,61,63]. The effects of membrane modifications with plasma treatments have mostly been ...
