Seawater contains high concentrations of sparingly soluble salts which can cause scaling the membrane surface, in turn limit productivity and water recovery potential seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO). Nanofiltration (NF) pre-treatment prevent via preferential removal scale-forming ions. Several studies have shown that rejection ions vary considerably depending on membrane. The main objective this study was to test a number commercially available NF membranes with synthetic order compare their...

Understanding the formation of alteration phases on surface spent nuclear fuel, such as those observed during leaching experiments, is necessary in order to predict concentration radionuclides near-field a final repository. Hydrogen peroxide has been identified one oxidants formed by radiolysis water presence fuel; especially due α activity. The this species solution can contribute uranium secondary phases. In work, we have studied oxidative dissolution synthetic UO2 disks hydrogen solutions...

With the current increasing interest in aquifer denitrification, recent attention has been given to cost‐effective in‐situ treatments such as Enhanced In‐Situ Biological Denitrification (EISBD), which intends stimulate indigenous bacterial activity by injecting an external organic substrate and/or nutrients matrix. Within this context, laboratory batch assays have conducted develop a strategy for denitrification of nitrate‐contaminated Argentona, Catalonia (Spain). The were run under aerobic...

ABSTRACT An aqueous solution of a nonionic surfactant, polyoxyethylene nonyl phenyl ether, having an average 7.5 oxyethylene units, provides two-phase system that is surfactant-rich and surfactant-lean at ambient temperature. The found use as separation field. Au(III) was effectively partitioned into the small phase from hydrochloric acid solutions; thus such operational factors concentrations HCl, NaCl were investigated. Partitioning other heavy metals depressed, selective extraction could...

A number of nano-filtration membranes exhibit quite high rejections sulfates (98–99%) accompanied by moderate (sometimes as low 10–20% and even less) chlorides from highly concentrated electrolyte solutions like sea water or various brines. In this communication, it is shown that phenomenon can hardly be explained within the scope commonly accepted model where barrier layer considered a nano-porous medium, and, accordingly, there considerable convective coupling between transfers solutes...
