Turbidity reduced

Silica. The siUca content of natural waters is usually 10 to (5 x lO " ) M. Its presence is considered undesirable for some industrial purposes because of the formation of siUca and siUcate scales. The heteropoly-blue method is used for the measurement of siUca. The sample reacts with ammonium molybdate at pH 1.2, and oxaUc acid is added to reduce any molybdophosphoric acid produced. The yellow molybdosiUcic acid is then reduced with l-amino-2-naphthol-4-sulfoiiic acid and sodium sulfite to heteropoly blue. Color, turbidity, sulfide, and large amounts of iron are possible interferences. A digestion step involving NaHCO can be used to convert any molybdate-unreactive siUca to the reactive form. SiUca can also be deterrnined by atomic... 

Diethyl ether (about 1.41.) is added to a warm filtered solution of 100 g. of the crude nitroso compound in ca. 0.7 1. of dichloromethane until the solution becomes slightly turbid. The nitrosocarbamate is collected after cooling overnight at — 20°, and is dried under reduced pressure at 0°, providing 88-93 g. of yellow crystals with a pink luster, m.p. 87-89. 

A suspension of 37.3 g (0.1 mol) of 7/3-amino-3-methoxy-3-cephem-4-carboxylic acid hydrochloride dioxanate in 500 ml methylene chloride is stirred for 15 minutes at room temperature under an argon atmosphere and treated with 57.2 ml (0.23 mol) of bis-(trimethylsilyl)-acetamide. After 45 minutes the faintly yellow slightly turbid solution is cooled to 0°C and treated within 10 minutes with 31.2 g (0.15 mol) of D-Ct-amino-Ct-d, 4-cyclohexadienyl (acetyl chloride hydrochloride. Thirty minutes thereafter 15 ml (about 0.21 mol) of propylene oxide is added and the mixture is further stirred for 1 hour at 0°C. A cooled mixture of 20 ml of absolute methanol in 200 ml of methylene chloride is added within 30 minutes, after another 30 minutes the precipitate is filtered off under exclusion of moisture, washed with methylene chloride and dried under reduced pressure at room temperature. The obtained hygroscopic crystals of the hydrochloride of 7j3-[D-a-(1,4-cyclohexadienyl)acetylamino] -... 

A solution of 2,4-dichloro-2,.3-dihydro-1-benzothiepin (0.5 g, 2.16 mmol) in f-BuOH (14 mL) was added in one portion to a solution of f-BuOK (246 mg, 2.20 mmol) in t-BuOH (24 mL). After stirring for 50 min, the turbid orange solution was poured into H20 (150mL) and extracted with CHCl3. The extract was washed with H20 and dried (MgS04). The solvent was removed under reduced pressure to give a yellow oil [yield 330 mg (79%)] which was further purified by chromatography (alumina, petroleum ether). 

MM pressure filtration has tended to become standard practice in many parts of the world as RO pretreatment and is designed to reduce the maximum RW turbidity below 1 NTU and the SDI below 5. 

In this context it is the separation of solids from water by forcing the water through a porous filter media. The objective is typically to reduce the level of TDS in the water and often to reduce both the size of the particle remaining and the turbidity of the water. Filtration efficiency and quality is a function of many variable factors, although filtration is usually carried out at relatively low velocities, where velocity and pressure drop are directly related to each other. Typically a sand filter will remove a high percentage of particles above a diameter of 20 to 30 pm, whereas dual or multimedia filtration is required to remove particles down to a diameter of 10 to 20... 

The solubility of numerous ionic surfactants in water is strongly reduced in the presence of divalent cations. Stability in hard water is thus an important fact for surfactants used as detergents. Their stability can be measured as the amount of divalent cations at which the formation of a poorly soluble surfactant salt leads to permanent turbidity. The values given in the literature can only be... 

Table 4 summarizes the efficiency of this hybrid MFAJV/NF process. Reduction of conductivity, turbidity, suspended solids and TDS was close to 100%. Conductivity values were reduced down to average values of 200 pS cm while turbidity and TDS reached 1.2 NTU and 102 mg 1 respectively. Thus, regenerated water could meet the standards for cooling and boiler feedwater [11]. 

A. trans-l,2-Cyclohexanediol. In a 100-ml., round-bottomed flask equipped with a reflux condenser protected with a drying tube are placed a magnetic stirring bar, 17.56 g. (0.0667 mole) of thallium (I) acetate (Note 1), and 40 ml. of dried acetic acid (Note 2). The mixture is stirred and heated at reflux for 1 hour. To the cooled mixture are added 2.84 g. (3.5 ml., 0.0346 mole) of cyclohexene (Note 3) and 8.46 g. (0.0333 mole) of iodine (Note 4). The resulting suspension is stirred and heated at reflux for 9 hours (Note 5), and then cooled to room temperature. The yellow precipitate of thallium(I) iodide is filtered and washed thoroughly with ethyl ether. The filtrates are comhined, the solvents are removed under reduced pressure with a rotary evaporator (Note 6), and the residual liquid is dissolved in dry ethyl ether. The turbid solution is dried with anhydrous potassium carbonate, and the solvent is again removed by rotary evaporation (Note 6), affording 5.4-6.3 g. of trans-1,2-cyclohexanediol diacetate as a mobile, brown liquid (Note 7). 

Dichlorodibenzo- -dioxin. 2-Bromo-4-chlorophenol (31 grams, 0.15 mole) and solid potassium hydroxide (8.4 grams, 0.13 mole) were dissolved in methanol and evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was mixed with 50 ml of bEEE, 0.5 ml of ethylene diacetate, and 200 mg of copper catalyst. The turbid mixture was stirred and heated at 200°C for 15 hours. Cooling produced a thick slurry which was transferred into the 500-ml reservoir of a liquid chromatographic column (1.5 X 25 cm) packed with acetate ion exchange resin (Bio-Rad, AG1-X2, 200-400 mesh). The product was eluted from the column with 3 liters of chloroform. After evaporation, the residue was heated at 170°C/2 mm for 14 hours in a 300-cc Nestor-Faust sublimer. The identity of the sublimed product (14 grams, 74% yield) was confirmed by mass spectrometry and x-ray diffraction. Product purity was estimated at 99- -% by GLC (electron capture detector). 

It is sometimes preferred to consider the fraction of the light scattered in all directions from the primary beam per cm. of path. Thus a beam of intensity I decreases, as a result of scattering, by the amount ridx in traveling the distance dx through the solution of turbidity r.f After traversing a distance x, the incident beam will have been reduced from the initial intensity 7o to /, where... 

Alternatively, the hypothetical turbidity which would obtain in the absence of interference may be calculated from Eq. (24), which at 0 = 0 reduces to...
