Solvent adsorption toluene

The observation (Figure 11D) that weakly interacting solvents like toluene or pentane do not perturb the spectrum shown in Figure 11A is in line with the hypothesis of a strong interaction between the zeolite and (n6 C6H6)2V. It might be expected that adsorption of toluene or pentane would serve to solvate the (n6 C6H6)2V and release it from interaction with the walls of the zeolite. 

Early PG analysis using HPLC techniques was carried out as adsorption chromatography on normal-phase (NP) columns packed with silica or alumina. The nonpolar mobile phase comprizing of organic solvents (hexane, toluene, ethyl acetate, and HOAc) allows separation of PGs which are unstable in aqueous media (e.g., PGH2 on cyano- or phenyl-bonded phases). Usually, the injection medium must be fairly polar to dissolve the PGs. This is achieved by the addition of... 

As an alternative technique to adsorption experiments, the behaviour at the liquid-solid interface can be advantageously studied by dipping supports (thin carbon layer, mica sheet) into a low concentration dispersion of micelles or encapsulated nano-sized particles in pentane or other light solvent (hexane, toluene, etc.). After removing the solvent, ATEM or AFM can be used to study the films deposited on the chosen surfaces. 

Benzene, toluene, and a mixed xylene stream are subsequently recovered by extractive distillation using a solvent. Recovery ofA-xylene from a mixed xylene stream requires a further process step of either crystallization and filtration or adsorption on molecular sieves. o-Xylene can be recovered from the raffinate by fractionation. In A" xylene production it is common to isomerize the / -xylene in order to maximize the production of A xylene and o-xylene. Additional benzene is commonly produced by the hydrodealkylation of toluene to benzene to balance supply and demand. Less common is the hydrodealkylation of xylenes to produce benzene and the disproportionation of toluene to produce xylenes and benzene.

SO as to end the air mixture to adsorber No. 2. The system is then fully automatic. Solvents which have been successfully recovered by the activated carbon adsorption method include methanol, ethanol, butanol, chlorinated hydrocarbons including perchlorethylene, which boils at 121 C (250 °F), ethyl ether, isopropyl ether, the acetates up to amyl acetate, benzene, toluene, xylene, mineral spirits, naphtha, gasoline, acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, hexane, carbon disulfide, and others. 

Adsorption, which utilizes the ability of a solid adsorbent to adsorb specific components from a gaseous or a liquid solution onto its surface. Examples of adsorption include the use of granular activated carbon for the removal of ben-zene/toluene/xylene mixtures from underground water, the separation of ketones from aqueous wastes of an oil refinery, aad the recovery of organic solvents from the exhaust gases of polymer manufacturing facilities. Other examples include the use of activated alumina to adsorb fluorides and arsenic from metal-finishing emissions. 

Toluene is to be removed from a wastewater stream. The flowrate of the waste stream is 10 kg/s and its inlet composition of toluene is 5(X) ppmw. It is desired to reduced the toluene composition in water to 20 ppmw. Three external MSAs are considered air (S2) for stripping, activated carbon (S2) for adsorption, and a solvent extractant (S3). The data for the candidate MSAs are given in Table 3.6. The equilibrium data for the transfer of the pollutant from the waste stream to the yth MSA is given by... 

It is evident from these results that the interactive properties of the investigated SEC PS/DVB or DVB gels are very different. Because polar electroneutral macromolecules of PMMA were more retained from a nonpolar solvent (toluene) than from polar ones (THF, chloroform), we conclude that the dipol-dipol interactions were operative. Columns No. 1 and No. 2 were very interactive and can be applied successfully to LC techniques that combine exclusion and interaction (adsorption) mechanisms. These emerging techniques are LC at the critical adsorption point (18), the already mentioned LC under limiting conditions of adsorption (15,18), and LC under limiting conditions of desorption (16). In these cases, the adsorptivity of the SEC columns may even be advantageous. In most conventional SEC applications, however, the interactive properties of columns may cause important problems. In any case, interactive properties of SEC columns should be considered when applying the universal calibration, especially for medium polar and polar polymers. It is therefore advisable to check the elution properties of SEC columns before use with the... 

When a heptane solution of 5-Br-PADAP and an aqueous solution of Ni " " were stirred, the ligand in the organic phase was continuously consumed according to the complexation, but there was no extraction of the complex. The complex formed was completely adsorbed at the interface. On the other hand, in a toluene system the complex was extracted very slowly (Fig. 6). The complexation mechanism in the two solvent systems could be analyzed by taking into account the interfacial adsorption of the ligand. The next equation was derived for the initial rate of the consumption of HLq in the heptane system ... 

The single most important consideration in nonaqueous GPC is sample solubility. Although adsorption is not an infrequent problem, finding a solvent for a polymer is usually the hard step in analysis. The most common solvents for nonaqueous GPC are toluene, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, and DMF. A number of potentially useful solvents are toxic, corrosive, or expensive,... 

Adsorption of corrosion inhibitors or cationic surfactants can reduce sandstone formation permeability. Alcohols can be used to remove corrosion inhibitors from rock surfaces. Oil-soluble corrosion inhibitors may be dissolved by organic solvents such as xylene or toluene containing a mutual solvent, most often ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, EGMBE (167). Aqueous fluids containing 5-10% EGMBE can be used to dissolve cationic surfactants. 

Smooth and uniform polymer surface after vacuum plays a key role to ensure good OFRR sensing performance. We have observed in experiments that toluene after vacuum is prone to leave a number of cavities of a few micrometers in diameter on the surface. These cavities will induce additional scattering loss for the WGMs in the OFRR, which greatly degrade the g-factor, and hence the detection limit of the OFRR vapor sensor. Moreover, these small cavities have different adsorption characteristics compared to smooth polymer surface. Vapor molecules may be retained for a longer time at the cavity, which increases the response time and recovery time. Acetone and methanol are found to be better candidates for solvents because they usually leave uniform and smooth surface after vacuum. 

The opposing theories were reviewed in detail by Garten and Weiss (73, 111). To summarize the facts acid is adsorbed only in the presence of oxygen (16), the adsorption is dependent on oxygen pressure, at least at low pressures (22,112), and a part of the adsorbed acid can be removed by solvents such as toluene (109, 111). According to Burstein and Frumkin (113), hydrogen peroxide is liberated when acid is ad.sorbed in the presence of oxygen ...
