Reusing

Single-stage evaporators tend only to be used when the capacity needed is small. It is more usual to employ multistage systems which recover and reuse the latent heat of the vaporized material. Three... 

The use of excess reactants, diluents, or heat carriers in the reactor design has a significant effect on the flowsheet recycle structure. Sometimes the recycling of unwanted byproduct to the reactor can inhibit its formation at the source. If this can be achieved, it improves the overall use of raw materials and eliminates effluent disposal problems. Of course, the recycling does in itself reuse some of the other costs. The general tradeoffs are discussed in Chap. 8.

In a typical procedure, a solution of 0.175 mmol of L- -amino acid and 0.175 mmol of NaOH in 1 ml of water was added to a solution of 0.100 mmol of Cu(N03)2in 100 ml of water in a 100 ml flask. Tire pH was adjusted to 6.0-6.5. The catalyst solution was cooled to 0 C and a solution of 1.0 mmol of 3.8c in a minimal amount of ethanol was added, together with 2.4 mmol of 3.9. The flask was sealed carefully. After 48 hours of stirring at 0 C the reaction mixture was extracted with ether, affording 3.10c in quantitative yield After evaporation of the ether from the water layer (rotary evaporator) the catalyst solution can be reused without a significant decrease in enantioselectivity. 

If one is absolutely serious about ultra pure safrole then it can be separated from the eugenol-free sassafras oil by treatment with mercuric acetate [1,2,3,4] which likes that terminal double bond that only safrole has. The Hg(AcO)2 latches on to safrole at that double bond bringing it into solution as a solid sort of like the way that eugenol was. The safrole can then be separated from its still oily buddies by vacuum filtration. Safrole is then regenerated to its normal oily form by treatment with hydrochloric acid (HCI) which flicks the Hg(AcO)2 off the safrole and the safrole double bond reforms. As it so happens, the mercuric acetate also reforms intact so that it can be reused again such as in one of those... 

The solvent is then washed 3 x 50mL dH20 and, if desired, can be washed once with lOOmL saturated NaCI solution. Finally, the solvent is dried through Na2S04, removed by vacuum distillation, and the first 5 to 10mL of oil that distills over is saved because it is isomerized safrole (iososafrole), which is suitable for reuse. The rest of the oil that comes over will be the ever lovely MD-P2P, which is perfectly suitable for amination by any method given in this book. 

As the solution cools a big old mass of unreacted ammonium chloride will form. The chemist removes this by vacuum filtration and saves the crystals for reuse at another time. The golden colored filtrate is placed back in the flask and distilled (with vacuum now ) to reduce its volume by about a third. Temperature is not so much a problem now as the chemist will let the stuff distill over at whatever temperature is necessary. Sometimes the reducing solution is so concentrated that the remaining ammonium chloride crystals... 

Scrap and Recycle. Acetal resins can be processed with very Htde waste. Spmes, mimers, and out-of-tolerance parts can, in general, be ground and the resins reused. Up to about 25% of regrind can usually be safely recycled into virgin resin. However, the amount of regrind that can be used in a particular circumstance varies. The appropriate Hterature from the suppHer should be consulted. 

An adsorbent attracts molecules from the gas, the molecules become concentrated on the surface of the adsorbent, and are removed from the gas phase. Many process concepts have been developed to allow the efficient contact of feed gas mixtures with adsorbents to carry out desired separations and to allow efficient regeneration of the adsorbent for subsequent reuse. In nonregenerative appHcations, the adsorbent is used only once and is not regenerated.

The cobalt catalyst can be introduced into the reactor in any convenient form, such as the hydrocarbon-soluble cobalt naphthenate [61789-51 -3] as it is converted in the reaction to dicobalt octacarbonyl [15226-74-17, Co2(CO)g, the precursor to cobalt hydrocarbonyl [16842-03-8] HCo(CO)4, the active catalyst species. Some of the methods used to recover cobalt values for reuse are (11) conversion to an inorganic salt soluble ia water conversion to an organic salt soluble ia water or an organic solvent treatment with aqueous acid or alkah to recover part or all of the HCo(CO)4 ia the aqueous phase and conversion to metallic cobalt by thermal or chemical means. 

Picric acid may be made by gradually adding a mixture of phenol and sulfuric acid at 90—100°C to a nitration acid containing a small excess of nitric acid. The picric acid crystals are separated by centrifugiag, washed, and dried. The wash water is reused to decrease losses owiag to the water solubiUty of the picric acid. A yield of about 225% of the weight of phenol is commonly obtained. 

Pollution Prevention. Procedures haven been developed for recovery of composite ammonium perchlorate propellant from rocket motors, and the treatment of scrap and recovered propellant to reclaim ingredients. These include the use of high pressure water jets or compounds such as ammonia, which form fluids under pressure at elevated temperature, to remove the propellant from the motor, extraction of the ammonium perchlorate with solvents such as water or ammonia as a critical fluid, recrystalli2ation of the perchlorate and reuse in composite propellant or in slurry explosives or conversion to perchloric acid (166,167). 

The component C in the separated extract from the stage contact shown in Eigure 1 may be separated from the solvent B by distillation (qv), evaporation (qv), or other means, allowing solvent B to be reused for further extraction. Alternatively, the extract can be subjected to back-extraction (stripping) with solvent A under different conditions, eg, a different temperature again, the stripped solvent B can be reused for further extraction. Solvent recovery (qv) is an important factor in the economics of industrial extraction processes. 

Conditions of hydrogenation also determine the composition of the product. The rate of reaction is increased by increases in temperature, pressure, agitation, and catalyst concentration. Selectivity is increased by increasing temperature and negatively affected by increases in pressure, agitation, and catalyst. Double-bond isomerization is enhanced by a temperature increase but decreased with increasing pressure, agitation, and catalyst. Trans isomers may also be favored by use of reused (deactivated) catalyst or sulfur-poisoned catalyst. 

Secunda discharges no process water effluents. AU. water streams produced are cleaned and reused in the plant. The methane and light hydrocarbons in the product are reformed with steam to generate synthesis gas for recycle (14). Even at this large scale, the cost of producing fuels and chemicals by the Fischer-Tropsch process is dominated by the cost of synthesis gas production. Sasol has estimated that gas production accounts for 58% of total production costs (39). 

Water is continuously added to the last extraction bath and flows countercurrenfly to filament travel from bath to bath. Maximum solvent concentration of 15—30% is reached in the coagulation bath and maintained constant by continuously removing the solvent—water mixture for solvent recovery. Spinning solvent is generally recovered by a two-stage process in which the excess water is initially removed by distillation followed by transfer of cmde solvent to a second column where it is distilled and transferred for reuse in polymer manufacture.
