Separators removable tube section

The Loschmidt tube is simply a tube with an impermeable partition separating the two sections of the tube (Figure 8.3-1). Initially, the partition is in the position that gases in the two sections do not mix with each other. Here we shall assume that the total pressure is the same in both sections of the tube, and the initial compositions are different in the two parts of the tube. At time t = 0, the partition is removed and the diffusion process is started. 

Before the partition separating the two sections of the tube is removed, the mole fractions of the three components are ... 

The drying procedure for an ether layer requires the following additional step compared to the procedure for drying a methylene chloride layer (see Technique 12, Section 12.9, "Saturated Salt Solution"). To the ether layer in the centrifuge tube, add 2.0 mL of saturated aqueous sodium chloride. Shake for 30 seconds and let the layers separate. Remove and discard the aqueous layer. With a clean, dry Pasteur pipette, transfer the ether layer (without any water) to a clean, dry test tube. Now dry the ether layer over granular anhydrous sodium sulfate (see Technique 12,... 

Into a 500 ml. three-necked flask, provided with a mechanical stirrer, a gas inlet tube and a reflux condenser, place 57 g. of anhydrous stannous chloride (Section 11,50,11) and 200 ml. of anhydrous ether. Pass in dry hydrogen chloride gas (Section 11,48,1) until the mixture is saturated and separates into two layers the lower viscous layer consists of stannous chloride dissolved in ethereal hydrogen chloride. Set the stirrer in motion and add 19 5 g. of n-amyl cyanide (Sections III,112 and III,113) through the separatory funnel. Separation of the crystalline aldimine hydrochloride commences after a few minutes continue the stirring for 15 minutes. Filter oflF the crystalline solid, suspend it in about 50 ml. of water and heat under reflux until it is completely hydrolysed. Allow to cool and extract with ether dry the ethereal extract with anhydrous magnesium or calcium sulphate and remove the ether slowly (Fig. II, 13, 4, but with the distilling flask replaced by a Claisen flask with fractionating side arm). Finally, distil the residue and collect the n-hexaldehyde at 127-129°. The yield is 19 g. 

Effusion separator (or effusion enricher). An interface in which carrier gas is preferentially removed from the gas entering the mass spectrometer by effusive flow (e.g., through a porous tube or through a slit). This flow is usually molecular flow, such that the mean free path is much greater than the largest dimension of a traverse section of the channel. The flow characteristics are determined by collisions of the gas molecules with surfaces flow effects from molecular collisions are insignificant. 

After the waterwaH tubes deHver the saturated steam back into the top of the boHer dmm, moisture is separated out by a series ofbaffl.es, steam separators, and cormgated screens. The water removed drops down into the hot water contained in the steam dmm. The steam travels out through either a dry pipe, which leads to a superheater header, or a series of superheater tubes that connect directiy into the top of the steam dmm. The superheater tubes wind back into the top of the furnace and/or a hot flue-gas backpass section, next to the economizer, where heat from the combustion gases exiting the furnace superheats the steam traveling through the tubes. 

In some cases in which it is desirable to cool the product before removal to the outside atmosphere, the discharge end of the cyhnder is provided with an additional extension, the exterior of which is water-spray-cooled. In cocurrent-flow calciners, hot gases from the interior of the heated portion of the cylinder are withdrawn through a special extraction tube. This tube extends centrally through the cooled section to prevent flow of gas near the cooled-shell surfaces and possible condensation. Frequently a separate cooler is used, isolated from the calciner by an air lock. 

Charcoal Tubes Reference has been made earlier to adsorption, which is the property of some solid materials, such as activated charcoal, to physically retain solvent vapors on their surfaces. In environmental health testing, the adsorbed vapors are removed, generally with a solvent, in a laboratory. The solvent is then analyzed by physical methods (gas chromatography, etc.) to determine the individual compounds whose vapors, such as benzene, were present in the sampled air. Industrial atmospheric samples can be collected in small glass tubes (4 mm ID) packed with two sections of activated charcoal, separated and retained with fiberglass plugs. To obtain an air sample, the sealed ends of the tube are broken off, and air is drawn through the charcoal at the rate of 1 liter per minute by means...
