Selective operational

The ability of living organisms to differentiate between the chemically similar sodium and potassium ions must depend upon some difference between these two ions in aqueous solution. Essentially, this difference is one of size of the hydrated ions, which in turn means a difference in the force of electrostatic (coulombic) attraction between the hydrated cation and a negatively-charged site in the cell membrane thus a site may be able to accept the smaller ion Na (aq) and reject the larger K (aq). This same mechanism of selectivity operates in other ion-selection processes, notably in ion-exchange resins.

Again referring to the rules for Selecting Operations, the next separation should be Fractionator 9 which produces the 2-propanol product directly. 

Correlations of nucleation rates with crystallizer variables have been developed for a variety of systems. Although the correlations are empirical, a mechanistic hypothesis regarding nucleation can be helpful in selecting operating variables for inclusion in the model. Two examples are (/) the effect of slurry circulation rate on nucleation has been used to develop a correlation for nucleation rate based on the tip speed of the impeller (16) and (2) the scaleup of nucleation kinetics for sodium chloride crystalliza tion provided an analysis of the role of mixing and mixer characteristics in contact nucleation (17). Pubhshed kinetic correlations have been reviewed through about 1979 (18). In a later section on population balances, simple power-law expressions are used to correlate nucleation rate data and describe the effect of nucleation on crystal size distribution. 

The linear dynamic range of this method is 0.1 p.gl to 100 J.gl i The method detection limit (MDE) depends on selected operating conditions and a calibration range. It is important to use high purity reagents in all determinations.

In Table 1.4, the characteristic time-scales for selected operations are listed. The rate constants for surface and volume reactions are denoted by and respectively. Furthermore, the Sherwood number Sh, a dimensionless mass-transfer coefficient and the analogue of the Nusselt number, appears in one of the expressions for the reaction time-scale. The last column highlights the dependence of z p on the channel diameter d. Apparently, the scale dependence of different operations varies from dy f to (d ). Owing to these different dependences, some op-...

It is worth mentioning that in practice one often encounters situations when the benefits of meeting a specific requirement brings about a disadvantage in another area. The optimization problem often arises when it is necessary to match simultaneously several requirements sensitivity - selectivity, operational temperature - sensitivity, etc. For...
