Water Splitting A modified electrodi ysis arrangement is used as a means of regenerating an acid and a base from a corresponding salt. For instance, NaCl may be used to produce NaOH and HCl. Water sphtting is a viable alternative to disposal where a salt is produced by neutralization of an acid or base. Other potential applications include the recovery of organic acids from their salts and the treating of effluents from stack gas scrubbers. The new component required is a bipolar membrane, a membrane that sphts water into H and OH". At its simplest, a bipolar membrane may be prepared by... [Pg.2032]

Other potential applications are ceramic powders coated with their sintering aids, zirconia coated withyttria stabilizer, tungsten carbide coated with cobalt, or nickel, alumina abrasive powders coated with a relatively brittle second phase such as MgAl204 and plasma spray powders without the segregation of alloying elements. [Pg.478]

Fuel cells can be used to power a variety of portable devices, from handheld electronics such as cell phones and radios to larger equipment such as portable generators. Other potential applications include laptop computers, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and handheld video cameras—almost any application that has traditionally used batteries. These fuel cells have the potential to last more than three times as long as batteries between refueling. [Pg.184]

Other potential applications of PTT are in monofilaments, non-wovens, films, engineering thermoplastics and molded goods. Hsu [80] has patented paper forming fabrics made with PTT monofilaments for use in papermaking machines because this combines the chemical resistance of a polyester and the resiliency... [Pg.385]

Performance trials and evaluation tests on the technique indicate that it is both rehable and accurate, and, in addition, that the specificity is sufficient to cope with most chnical requirements. An evaluation was made by Haeckel et al. [19]. If this approach is successful, the dispensers and tubes in laboratories will become redundant. It may well become possible for a clinical test to be undertaken close to the patient rather than in the laboratory. Whilst the techniques have as yet been used only for clinical analyses, there are many other potential applications, for example in the water industry. However, the very nature of the technique necessitates development by Eastman Kodak. Very few users will be able to influence the choice of analytical problems to be tackled by this unique approach. [Pg.46]

Now we come to the other potential application of allelochemicals the development of new, safer and effective agrochemicals as pesticides and growth promoters. However, we restrict the discussion of pesticides to herbicides, fungicides, and broad-spectrum pesticides. [Pg.70]

The isotope cahfomium-252 undergoes spontaneous fission generating neutrons. It serves as a convenient source of neutrons for neutron activation analysis, neutron moisture gages, and in the determination of water and oilbearing layers in well-logging. It is expected to have many other potential applications, including synthesis of other heavy isotopes. [Pg.179]

The process can be used to treat dissolved metals and is commonly used in groundwater treatment for the reduction and precipitation of hexavalent chromium, as well as in the oxidation of cyanide wastes (at concentrations up to 10%). Other potential applications of electrochemical treatment include remediation of arsenic, cadmium, molybdenum, aluminum, zinc,... [Pg.529]

Other potential applications of photonic crystals include crystals with rows of holes to guide radiation around sharp bends (something that cannot be attained with conventional optical fibres), nanoscopic lasers formed from thin films, ultrawhite pigment formed from a regular array of submicron titanium dioxide particles, radio frequency reflectors for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and LEDs. [Pg.362]

Other potential applications for CD films have been suggested and studied. [Pg.91]

The use of a dissolved salt in place of a liquid component as the separating agent in extractive distillation has strong advantages in certain systems with respect to both increased separation efficiency and reduced energy requirements. A principal reason why such a technique has not undergone more intensive development or seen more than specialized industrial use is that the solution thermodynamics of salt effect in vapor-liquid equilibrium are complex, and are still not well understood. However, even small amounts of certain salts present in the liquid phase of certain systems can exert profound effects on equilibrium vapor composition, hence on relative volatility, and on azeotropic behavior. Also extractive and azeotropic distillation is not the only important application for the effects of salts on vapor-liquid equilibrium while used as examples, other potential applications of equal importance exist as well. [Pg.32]

Goals in the development of a recombinant laccase are to obtain a laccase variant with increased reduction potential, thermal stability, and pH range and to identify new mediators and processes that improve the effectiveness of laccase in the degradation of lignin. Also, improved recombinant laccases and improved laccase mediators should result in higher strength fiber compared to conventional bleaching. Other potential applications of laccase include treatment of fabrics and catalysis of polymer synthesis. [Pg.151]

Probably the most obvious application for superconductors is in the transmission of electrical power and it seems that that this is close to being a reality. There are many other potential applications in the power electrical engineering field, for example power generators, motors, transformers, leads and fault current-limiters. [Pg.218]

Economic data for the production and utilization of Jerusalem artichoke are relatively scarce, because the crop is not currently grown on a large commercial scale. However, there are some economic analyses for crop production and the use of Jerusalem artichoke for bioethanol and inulin production that highlight its potential. Bioethanol is in demand as a gasoline additive and biofuel, while inulin is increasingly used as a food ingredient. The tops and tubers of Jerusalem artichoke also have many other potential applications. [Pg.407]

Potassium titanate has a high refractive index and a low thermal conductivity. Moreover, its size is in the right range to scatter infrared radiation. Thus it has potential use as an insulating and ir-reflective material. Other potential applications of potassium titanate include its use as a filtration medium, a reinforcement material for organic polymers, and an asbestos replacement in friction brakes. Between 1965 and 1972, pigmentary potassium titanate was manufactured in the United States (108). [Pg.127]

The activity of this enzyme suggests other potential applications including flavor modification of other food products and as a bioreactor in the downstream processing of recombinant proteins. [Pg.251]
