Lakes, films

On the environmental side, it turns out that the surfaces of oceans and lakes are usually coated with natural films, mainly glycoproteins [8]. As they are biological in origin, the extent of such films seems to be seasonal. Pollutant slicks, especially from oil spills, are of increasing importance, and their cleanup can present interesting surface chemical problems. [Pg.104]

Siace there are ao solveat-soluble FD C colors, FD C lakes have provea particularly valuable for coloring water-repelliag foods such as fats, gums, waxes, and oils, and for coloring food-packagiag materials including lacquers, containers, plastic films, and inks from which soluble dyes would be quickly leached. Similarly useful appHcations have been found for D C and Ext. D C lakes ia their respective areas of appHcatioa. [Pg.444]

Ammonia is absorbed in a falling film of water in an absorption apparatus and the film is disrupted and mixed at regular intervals as it flows down the column. The mass transfer rate is calculated from the penetration theory on the assumption that all the relevant conditions apply. It is found from measurements that the muss transfer rate immediately before mixing is only 16 pet cent of that calculated from the theory anil the difference has been attributed to the existence of a surface film which remains intact and unaffected by the mixing process. If the liquid mixing process lakes place every second, what thickness of surface film would account for the discrepancy, ... [Pg.857]

Volatilization. Transfer of chemicals across the air/water interface can result in either a net gain or loss of chemical, although in many cases the bulk concentration in the air above a contaminated water body is low enough to be neglected (20). When the atmosphere is the primary source of the contaminant, as for example polychlorinated biphenyls in some parts of the Laurentian Great Lakes, atmospheric concentrations obviously cannot be neglected. The Whitman two-film or two-resistance approach (21) has been applied to a number of environmental situations (20, 22, 23). Transport across the air/water interface is viewed as a two-stage process, in which both phases of the interface can offer resistance to transport of the chemical. The rate of transfer depends on turbulence in the water body and in the atmosphere, the... [Pg.28]

At the air-water interface, water molecules are constantly evaporating and condensing in a closed container. In an open container, water molecules at the surface will desorb and diffuse into the gas phase. It is therefore important to determine the effect of a monomolecular film of amphiphiles at the interface. The measurement of the evaporation of water through monolayer films was found to be of considerable interest in the study of methods for controlling evaporation from great lakes. Many important atmospheric reactions involve interfacial interactions of gas molecules (oxygen and different pollutants) with aqueous droplets of clouds and fog as well as ocean surfaces. The presence of monolayer films would thus have an appreciable effect on such mass transfer reactions. [Pg.87]

The influence of wind is predominant in determining the liquid film coefficient for lakes, reservoirs, oceans, and many estuaries. Wind creates a shear on the water surface and generates turbulence below and on the water surface. Thus, this section deals with the measurement and prediction of the wind influence on liquid film coefficient. [Pg.247]

Batch Technique. As with river reaeration measurements, tracers can also be put into lakes, estuaries, and oceans to measure the influence of wind on liquid film coefficient. If we have a volatile tracer in a lake with a well-established mixed layer, for example, we can apply the same batch reactor equation from Section 6.A, as though we had a well-mixed tank ... [Pg.248]

This is generally seen as an indication that wind is an important driving factor for lakes, estuaries, and oceans, ft has been shown that breaking waves and water surface slicks are important (Asher and Wanninkhof, 1998), and there are other parameters -such as mean square water surface slope - that have been proposed as better indicators (Jahne, 1991). The problem is that our ability to predict these indicators from wind velocity measurements have not been developed and tested for liquid film coefficient. [Pg.254]

A 10-km-long lake is exposed to various wind speeds. On a cold day in the fall, the water temperature at 10°C has not cooled yet, but the air temperature is at -5 °C. The relative humidity is 100%. Compute the gas film coefficient for water vapor at various wind fetch lengths for wind speeds at 2 m height and at 2,6,10, and 16 m/s. Compare your results with those of Example 8.6. [Pg.263]

Tablets coated with the Eudragit-PEG 400 mixture were made with three different polymer film thicknesses 6, 10 and 15 mg (KET-R, 10 and 15 tablets). For these tablets it was not possible to obtain swelling measurements because this was prevented by the lake coating.
