Carbon dioxide bubbles produced in the methanol oxidation reaction enter the anode channel and disturb the flow of the methanol-water solution. The direct effect of gaseous bubbles is a dramatic acceleration of the flow experiments show that in typical situations the outlet flow velocity exceeds the inlet velocity by an order of magnitude (Yang et al., 2005). This is easy to understand gas density is much lower than the density of liquid and simple mass conservation prescribes that due to an increasing concentration of gaseous bubbles, the two-phase flow must accelerate.

Properties including freezing point, boiling point, and flash point of methanol-water solutions of different methanol contents have been given by Flick [14]. Data for density [14,29], viscosity [14], vapor pressure [14,29], thermal conductivity [14], specific heat [14,29], surface tension [30], and refractive index [31] at selected temperatures have also been tabulated. Heat of mixing can be found in Reference 32. Diffusion coefficients of methanol and water in methanol-water solutions have been evaluated in detail by Derlacki et al. [33]. 

Fuel cells using directly liquid fuels are advantageous in this aspect. Methanol, formaldehyde (water solution), formic acid (water solution) and hydrazine are among fuels relatively easy to oxidize electrochemically. Alcohol and hydrocarbon with larger molecular weight are much harder to oxidize completely to C02- Other qualifications to be considered are price, availability, safety, energy density and ease of handling. 

Crystallographic quality ciystals of indinavir sulfate salt were grown hy slow diffusion of methanol into an ethanol/water solution. As confirmed by TG/IR results, the crystals obtained were a mixed mono-methanol / mono-ethanol solvate. The compound crystallized in the P2, space group, (monoclinic crystal system) with 2 molecules per unit cell. The cell constants were found to be a= 14.321(1)A, 6 = 10.091(1)A, c = 15.192(1)A, P = 95.50(1)°, andV=2185.5A. The calculated density was 1.200 g/cm. A view of the crystallographic unit cell packing is shown in Figure 4, with the solvent molecules omitted [7]. 

Based on the above mentioned, the programme of theoretical and experimental investigation of the main parameters of coal-methanol (or its water solution) mixture pipeline transport should be opened. As the first step of the programme the comparison of power consumption (dependency of hydraulic gradient I on slurry flow velocity V and solid concentration Cs) for the pipeline transport of coal-water mixture and coal-methanol solution mixture was realised. The special laboratory measurements were made to define unknown input data of semi-empirical relationships, i.e. the limit volumetric concentration Cm and the coefficient of mechanical friction of coal in the water or water-methanol solution ka. The resultant comparison of the hydraulic gradient I of the coal-water and coal-methanol solution mixture flow is presented in Figure 2, where density of coal was pc = 1480 kg/m3, diameter of the pipe was D = 0.103 mm, the maximal grain size of coal dmax was less than 0.25 mm, volumetric concentration - C = 20 %. 

Torii has reported the electrochemical oxyselenation-deselenation of alkenes to give allylically rearranged allyloxy products. A typical example is given below (equation 23).Benzyl- or acetyl-(S)-citronellol was mixed in acetonitrile/water solution with diphenyl diselenide (0.5 mol equiv.) and a catalytic amount of tetraethylammonium bromide, and was electrolyzed at room temperature in an undivided cell using platinum electrodes and a constant current density of 10 mA cm. The corresponding allylic alcohols were isolated in excellent yields. In methanolic solution, using a reduced amount of diphenyl diselenide (20 mol %), the methoxy compounds were obtained in slightly reduced yields.

The density measurements of aldol and triol solutions in methanol-water and water solutions showed that the density is linearly dependent on temperature p = A- B(t(°C), but changes very little as a function of the actual composition, i.e. the reaction time. The viscosity data followed Andrade s equation for the temperature dependence. Since the viscosity changed very little as a... 

For many purposes it is simpler to use the flotation procedure in which the sample is made to float in a liquid of the same density. The density of the liquid may then be determined according to known methods with an aerometer. One can use aqueous zinc chloride or magnesium chloride solutions as the liquids. With densities below 1 g/cm, methanol-water mixtures are useful. 

It should be pointed out, that although the relationship between distribution coefficient and methanol concentration is not linear, neither is it logarithmic a graph of log (distribution coefficient) against methanol concentration gives a shallow curve. In order to obtain an explicit function for the retention of a solute in terms of the original methanol concentration, it is necessary to determine the equilibrium constant for the association of water and methanol. This was carried out by Katz et al [7] using refractive index and density data for different methanol/water mixtures and an expression for the retention of the solute was proposed. 

TLC of HBsAG segments (HBsAG = hepatitis B-virus) was done on sihca with solvent systems obtained by mixing ethyl acetate with a stock solution of pyridine-acetic acid-water (20 6 11, v/v). TLC separation of high-density lipoprotein and oxidized high-density lipoprotein were performed on silica gel with chloroform-NHa-methanol-water (180 11 108 11, v/v) systems.
