Crystallizers spray

In the indoor environment, many types of products such as crystals, sprays and liquids are applied for active and preventative protection of insects. Insect sprays are particularly popular because they are easy to handle and can be combined with air fresheners. Commonly, the amount of active agents in these products is well below 2%. For example, a commercially available insecticide for indoor use may contain 0.25% tetramethrin, 0.05% D-phenothrin and 1% of the synergist pipero-nyl butoxide. Pyrethroids are also used as active agents in liquid products against furniture beetle. In addition, materials containing natural fibers are often equipped with synthetic pyrethroids as a precaution. Apart from the active ingredients, volatile components such as acetone, aliphatic hydrocarbons, cycloalkanes, branched alkanes C3-benzenes and dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether are usually present in insecticides. 

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000, when spray-dried with lactose, has been shown to accelerate the rate and extent of crystallization of lactose. It has also been shown that spray-dried lactose composite particles containing an ion complex of chitosan are suitable for the dry-coating of tablets. Spray-dried lactose and crystallized spray-dried lactose have been evaluated for dry powder inhalation.Amorphous spray-dried lactose has also been studied in composites with PVP. ...

Mixed with additives, urea is used in soHd fertilizers of various formulations, eg, urea—ammonium phosphate (UAP), urea—ammonium sulfate (UAS), and urea—phosphate (urea + phosphoric acid). Concentrated solutions of urea and ammonium nitrate (UAN) solutions (80—85 wt%) have a high nitrogen content but low crystallization point, suitable for easy transportation, pipeline distribution, and direct spray appHcation.

The ammonium perchlorate solution is spray-dried to the desired crystal size at air temperatures below 150°C and crystal temperatures of about 110°C. This procedure provides a pure product having a controlled grain size. Prior mechanical and thermal treatment affects the isothermal... 

Graining, flaking, and spraying have all been used to make soHd ammonium nitrate particles. Most plants have adopted various prilling or granulation processes. Crystallized ammonium nitrate has been produced occasionally in small quantities for use in specialty explosives. The Tennessee Valley Authority developed and operated a vacuum crystallization process (25), but the comparatively small crystals were not well received as a fertilizer. 

In the human market, oral and parenteral dosage forms are prepared from the crystal. However, because of the extremely high potency, more dilute (0.1—10%) forms are avabable. These include dilutions with mannitol, triturations on dicalcium phosphate or resins, and spray-dried forms. Prices for these forms are driven by that of the crystal, which in early 1996 was ca 9.50/gram (95). Prices for the vitamin have risen during the first half of the 1990s. However, Htde growth in price beyond inflation is anticipated. 

Monocalcium phosphate [10031-30-8] Ca(H2P0 2 H2O, used in baking powder (see Bakeryprocesses and leavening agents), is crystallized from a hot reaction mixture of concentrated (electric furnace) phosphoric acid and lime, or it is made by spray-drying a slurry of the product of reaction of lime and phosphoric acid (14). 

There are two commercial solvent crystaUi2ation processes. The Emersol Process, patented in 1942 by Emery Industries, uses methanol as solvent and the Armour-Texaco Process, patented in 1948, uses acetone as solvent. The fatty acids to be separated are dissolved in the solvent and cooled, usually in a double-pipe chiller. Internal scrapers rotating at low rpm remove the crystals from the chilled surface. The slurry is then separated by means of a rotary vacuum filter. The filter cake is sprayed with cold solvent to remove free Hquid acids, and the solvents are removed by flash evaporation and steam stripping and recovered for reuse (10). 

Sublimation of ice crystals to water vapor under a very high vacuum, about 67 Pa (0.5 mm Hg) or lower, removes the majority of the moisture from the granulated frozen extract particles. Heat input is controlled to assure a maximum product end point temperature below 49°C. Freeze drying takes significantly longer than spray drying and requires a greater capital investment.

Engelhard s in-situ FCC catalyst technology is mainly based on growing zeolite within the kaolin-based particles as shown in Figure 3-9A. The aqueous solution of various kaolins is spray dried to form micR)spheres. The microspheres are hardened in a high-temperature l,3f)(TF/704°C) calcination process. The NaY zeolite is produced by digestion of the microspheres, which contain metakaolin, and mullite with caustic or sodium silicate. Simultaneously, an active matrix is formed with the microspheres. The crystallized microspheres are filtered and washed prior to ion exchange and any final treatment. 

Good quality steel is used and electrozinc is preferred for washing machines. Steel is pretreated with iron phosphate for economy electrozinc with a fine crystal zinc phosphate. No primer is normally used 25-40/im of finish is applied direct to metal. The required properties are best obtained with a thermosetting acrylic or polyester/melamine-formaldehyde finish. Self-reactive acrylics are usually preferred these resins contain about 15 Vo 7V-butoxymethyl acrylamide (CH2=CH —CO —NH —CHj—O —C4H,) monomer and cure in a manner similar to butylated melamine-formaldehyde resins. Resistance or anti-corrosive properties may be upgraded by the inclusion of small amounts of epoxy resin. Application is usually by electrostatic spray application from disc or bell. Shapes are complex enough to require convected hot-air curing. Schedules of 20 min at 150-175°C are... 

To avoid this phase change, zirconia is stabilized in the cubic phase by the addition of a small amount of a divalent or trivalent oxide of cubic symmetry, such as MgO, CaO, or Y2O3. The additive oxide cation enters the crystal lattice and increases the ionic character of the metal-oxygen bonds. The cubic phase is not thermodynamically stable below approximately 1400°C for MgO additions, 1140°C for CaO additions, and below 750°C for Y2O3 additions. However, the diffusion rates for the cations are so low at Xhtstsubsolidus temperatures that the cubic phase can easily be quenched and retained as a metastable phase. Zirconia is commercially applied by thermal spray. It is also readily produced by CVD, mostly on an experimental basis. Its characteristics and properties are summarized in Table 11.8. 

Methyl parathion is a pesticide that is used to kill insects on crops. Usually, it is sprayed on the crops. Methyl parathion comes in two forms a pure form of white crystals and a technical-grade solution (brownish liquid), which contains methyl parathion (80%) and inactive ingredients in a solvent. The technical-grade methyl parathion smells like rotten eggs or garlic. Methyl parathion is a manufactured chemical, so it is found in the environment only as a result of its manufacture or use. Methyl parathion has been manufactured in the United States since 1952 and has been used to kill insects on many types of crops since this time. Because methyl...
