The sweet water from continuous and batch autoclave processes for splitting fats contains tittle or no mineral acids and salts and requires very tittle in the way of purification, as compared to spent lye from kettle soapmaking (9). The sweet water should be processed promptly after splitting to avoid degradation and loss of glycerol by fermentation. Any fatty acids that rise to the top of the sweet water are skimmed. A small amount of alkali is added to precipitate the dissolved fatty acids and neutralize the liquor. The alkaline liquor is then filtered and evaporated to an 88% cmde glycerol. Sweet water from modem noncatalytic, continuous hydrolysis may be evaporated to ca 88% without chemical treatment. 

Improvements to the methanol reductant processes may be found in the patent Hterature. These include methods of operation to reduce acidity in the crystallisation 2one of the generator to promote crystallisation of sodium sulfate and to reduce sulfuric acid consumption (48). Other improvements sought are the elimination of formic acid and chlorine impurities from the chlorine dioxide, as weU as methods of recovering acid and sodium hydroxide, or acid and neutral sodium sulfate from the soHd sodium sesquisulfate salt waste stream (48—52). 

The possibility of preconcentration of selenium in form of SeO by evaporation of low alkali water solution (for 20-1000 J.g/L) has been investigated. Considerable losses of selenium have been observed during evaporation of acidic and neutral solutions owing to volatility of selenium compounds. During evaporation of low alkali solutions at ph 9-10 there are no losses of selenium. Relative error of selenium determination is 1-2% for 1000 P-g/L solution and 3-5% for 20-100 p.g/L. Concentration factor is 10. 

It has been established, that both DN and Ibp form complex compounds with ions Eu(III), Sm(III), Tb(III) and Dy(III), possessing luminescent properties. The most intensive luminescence is observed for complex compounds with ion Tb(III). It has been shown, that complexation has place in low acidic and neutral water solutions at pH 6,4-7,0. From the data of luminescence intensity for the complex the ratio of component Tb Fig was established equal to 1 2 by the continuous variations method. Presence at a solution of organic bases 2,2 -bipyridil, (Bipy) and 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) causes the analytical signal amplification up to 250 (75) times as a result of the Bipy (Phen) inclusion in inner coordination sphere and formation of different ligands complexes with component ratio Tb Fig Bipy (Phen) = 1 2 1.

The purity of (/-a-phenylethylamine-/-malate is not readily determined by its melting point or specific rotation, but rather by its massive crystalline form and solubility. The acid and neutral /-base-/-acid salts are much more soluble, and usually do not crystallize at all. 

It is also of interest to note that Wranglen considers that the decrease in the corrosion rate of steel in the atmosphere and the pitting rate in acid and neutral solution brought about by small alloying additions of copper is due to the formation of CU2S, which reduces the activity of the HS and Scions to a very low value so that they do not catalyse anodic dissolution, and a similar mechanism was put forward by Fyfe etal. to explain the corrosion resistance of copper-containing steels when exposed to industrial atmospheres. 

The influence of temperature on the anodic behaviour of nickel has been studied, and in acidic and neutral solutions the active-passive transition is not observed at temperatures greater than about 100°C (Fig. 4.21). 

In many aqueous solutions nickel has the ability to become passive over a wide range of pH values. The mechanism of passivation of nickel and the properties of passive nickel have been studied extensively—perhaps more widely than for any other element, except possibly iron. In recent years the use of optical and surface analytical techniques has done much to clarify the situation . Early studies on the passivation of nickel were stimulated by the use of nickel anodes in alkaline batteries and in consequence were conducted in the main in alkaline media. More recently, however, attention has been directed to the passivation of nickel in acidic and neutral as well as alkaline solutions. 

Turning now to the acidic situation, a report on the electrochemical behaviour of platinum exposed to 0-1m sodium bicarbonate containing oxygen up to 3970 kPa and at temperatures of 162 and 238°C is available. Anodic and cathodic polarisation curves and Tafel slopes are presented whilst limiting current densities, exchange current densities and reversible electrode potentials are tabulated. In weak acid and neutral solutions containing chloride ions, the passivity of platinum is always associated with the presence of adsorbed oxygen or oxide layer on the surface In concentrated hydrochloric acid solutions, the possible retardation of dissolution is more likely because of an adsorbed layer of atomic chlorine ... 

The mechanisms of corrosion inhibition will be described separately for acid and neutral solutions, since there are considerable differences in mechanisms between these two media. Definitions and classifications of inhibitors are given in Section 17.2 and by Fischer. ... 

Typically the formulation may contain up to 60% active with builder salts and a water level of about 30-40% [52]. The weight ratio of LAS/AE may range from 1.5 1 up to 4 1. The combination of LAS and AE is especially effective for two reasons. First, LAS and AE interact strongly to form the lamellar phase liquid crystals. Second, both ingredients can be introduced into the liquid formulation as a 95 + % active liquid to control the amount of water going into the formulation. LAS can be introduced into the formulation as sulfonic acid and neutralized in situ. 

The specific adsorption of OH" ions depends on the electrode surface structure increasing in the order Au(l 11) < Au(100) < Au(311).391 The similarity of the results obtained in alkaline solutions and those observed in acid and neutral media have led the authors of many papers to conclude that surface reconstruction occurs at a < 0 and is removed at 0. 

The analysis of a pharmaceutical tablet (6) requires sample preparation that is little more complex as most tablets contain excipients (a solid diluent) that may be starch, chalk, silica gel, cellulose or some other physiologically inert material. This sample preparation procedure depends on the insolubility of the excipient in methanol. As the components of interest are both acidic and neutral, the separation was achieved by exploiting both the ionic interactions between the organic acids and the adsorbed ion exchanger and the dispersive interactions with the remaining exposed reverse phase.

Separation of fatty acids (Ruthven, 1997). Tall oil from the pulp and paper industry is subjected to separation of rosin acid, linoleic acid, oleic acid, and neutral compounds. Distillation at reduced pressure is u.sed, but this leads to degradation of products. A Sorbex process eliminates this problem.
