Stage 7 Solution generation

The Electro-Coatings case study describes how the above principles were applied to a focal firm that produces electroplated parts for the automotive industry. 

An initial analysis of value-adding and non-value-adding time was undertaken. This is shown in Table 5.3, which summarises the total time, wasted time and value-adding

After a single-stage liquid-liquid contact the phase remaining from the feed sohition (raffinate) can be contacted with another quantity of fresh extraction solvent. This crosscurrent extraction scVieme (Fig. 15-4) is an excellent laboratoiy procedure because the extrac t and raffinate phases can be analyzed after each stage to generate equihbrium data. Also, the feasibility of solute removal to lowTevels can be demonstrated. 

Electron transfer reduction of pyridines in both acid and alkaline solution generates the protonated radical-anion. This rapidly accepts a further electron and a proton to give a mixture of dihydropyridines. Enamine structures in these dihydro-pyridines can tautomerise to the imine, which is more readily reduced than the original pyridine molecule. Further reaction of the 1,4-dihydropyridine leads to piperidine while reduction of the t, 2-dihydropyridine leads to a tetrahydropyridine in which the alkene group cannot tautomerise to the imine and which is not therefore reduced to the piperidine stage. The reaction sequence is illustrated for 2,6-dimethyl-pyridine 18 which yields the thermodynamically favoured cis-2,6-dimethylpiperidine in which the two alkyl substituents occupy equatorial conformations. 

Solution heat exchanger. This H/Ex, transfers heat from hot, concentrated refrigerant (as it passes from the first stage vapor generation process to the absorber), to the dilute refrigerant solution (which is returned from the absorber to the generators). This H/Ex, is a process-to-process vessel, and is not normally inspected by the water treatment service company. 

The cross-current extraction process is an ideal laboratory procedure since the extract and raffinate phases can be analyzed after each stage to generate equilibrium data as well as to achieve high solute removal. If the distribution coefficient, as well as the ratio of extraction solvent to feed solvent (S IF ), are constant and the fresh... 

At this stage the fonnulated Galerkin-weighted residual Equation (2.52) contains second-order derivatives. Therefore elements cannot generate an acceptable solution for this equation (using C elements the first derivative of... 

A schematic illustration of a typical inlet apparatus for separating volatile hydrides from the analyte solution, in which they are generated upon reduction with sodium tetrahydroborate. When the mixed analyte solution containing volatile hydrides enters the main part of the gas/liquid separator, the volatiles are released and mix with argon sweep and makeup gas, with which they are transported to the center of the plasma. The unwanted analyte solution drains from the end of the gas/liquid separator. The actual construction details of these gas/liquid separators can vary considerably, but all serve the same purpose. In some of them, there can be an intermediate stage for removal of air and hydrogen from the hydrides before the latter are sent to the plasma. 

During Stages II and III the average concentration of radicals within the particle determines the rate of polymerization. To solve for n, the fate of a given radical was balanced across the possible adsorption, desorption, and termination events. Initially a solution was provided for three physically limiting cases. Subsequentiy, n was solved for expHcitiy without limitation using a generating function to solve the Smith-Ewart recursion formula (29). This analysis for the case of very slow rates of radical desorption was improved on (30), and later radical readsorption was accounted for and the Smith-Ewart recursion formula solved via the method of continuous fractions (31).
