Inorganic impurities are described in ICH Q3A(R) as reagents, ligands, and catalysts, heavy metals, inorganic salts, and other materials (e.g., filter aids, charcoal). Few of these impurities lend themselves to evaluation using liquid chromatography and as such will not be discussed further in this chapter.

Reverse osmosis is a high-pressure membrane separation process (20 to 100 bar) which can be used to reject dissolved inorganic salt or heavy metals. The concentrated waste material produced by membrane process should be recycled if possible but might require further treatment or disposal. 

Complexes of DMAC and many inorganic haHdes have been reported (20). These complexes are of iaterest because they catalyze a number of organic reactions. Complexes of DMAC and such heavy metal salts as NiBr2 exert a greater catalytic activity than the simple salts (21). The crystalline complex of SO and dimethylacetamide has been suggested for moderating the reaction conditions ia sulfation of leuco vat dyestuffs (22). 

Alcohols react with boric acid with elimination of water to form borate esters, B(OR)3. A wide variety of borate salts and complexes have been prepared by the reaction of boric acid and inorganic bases, amines, and heavy-metal cations or oxyanions (44,45). Fusion with metal oxides yields... 

Applicability/Limitations Most t qjes of solid, liquid, and gaseous organic waste or a mixture of these wastes can be treated with this technology. Explosive wastes and wastes with high inorganic salt content and/or heavy metals require special evaluation. This operation can create high particulate emissions which require post-combustion control. 

Such inorganic compounds as sulphates of heavy metals and calcium [27], sulphites of calcium and potassium, salts of nickel [28] have been reported as thermostabilizers of polyolefins. 

Most simple inorganic salt solutions cause virtually no attack on aluminium-base alloys, unless they possess the qualities required for pitting corrosion, which have been considered previously, or hydrolyse in solution to give acid or alkaline reactions, as do, for example, aluminium, ferric and zinc chlorides. With salts of heavy metals —notably copper, silver, and gold —the heavy metal deposits on to the aluminium, where it subsequently causes serious bimetallic corrosion.

The unique characteristic of the HAZCON process is the use of the proprietary ingredient Chloranan. The wastes most effectively solidified by the process are aqueous solutions, suspensions, or solids containing appreciable amounts of heavy metals and inorganic salts. The claimed characteristic of the Chloranan to inhibit the effects of organics on the crystallization of the cement is unique to the HAZCON process. 

Aqueous systems have been used in separations, coatings, and synthesis. Aqueous biphasic systems have been developed for hquid-liquid extractions using water-soluble polymers such as polyethylene glycol, and inorganic salts such as ammonium chloride or potassium phosphate (Rogers et al., 1998), (Sherman et al., 1998). These systems have been investigated for use in the separation and recovery of heavy metals from mixed wastes and in the recovery of colored impurities from textile waste streams (Sherman et al., 1998). 

Addition of aqueous barium chloride to the potassium salt yields the bluish insoluble barium trioxalatochromate (III). Many other heavy metal ions and coordination cations give insoluble chromioxalates which are interesting from the standpoint of inorganic isomerism. 

The EMEP monitoring network of precipitation chemistry consists of about a hundred stations distributed in almost 30 countries across Europe.1 All of these measure inorganic ions as well as pH and conductivity. Figure 17.1 illustrates the concentration levels of sulfate (corrected for sea salt), nitrate, and ammonium in 2006. The monitoring sites of heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are less densely distributed 2 in 2006, there were around 50 for heavy metals such as lead...
