Abstract

The vapour pressures of saturated aqueous solutions of NaCl, NaBr, NaNO₃, NaNO₂, KIO₃, and RbCl were determined in the temperature rangeT=(278 to 323) K using an electronic hygrometer with an electrolyte sensor and compared with the literature data, which are available only for the first four salts. These vapour pressures serve to evaluate the water activities, osmotic coefficients, and molar enthalpies of vaporization and solution at saturation.

Structure, mechanical and physical properties of hordein/chitosan composite films
2022, LWT
Citation Excerpt :
The mold was placed in an oven at 37 ± 1 °C for 24 h to obtain hordein/chitosan 1:3 (HCH3), 1:5 (HCH5), 1:7 (HCH7) and 1:9 (HCH9) composite films. Finally, the film samples were peeled and incubated in a desiccator at 54 ± 2% relative humidity and 37 ± 1 °C for at least 72 h prior to testing (Apelblat & Korin, 1998). The individual CH film was prepared according to the same method.
In this study, edible films (HCHs) based on hordein/chitosan complexes were prepared by the drop cast method, and the effects of the composite packaging films on strawberry preservation were evaluated. The micrographs of hordein/chitosan composite films presented more compact structure than chitosan film. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results demonstrated that chitosan and hordein interacted with each other by hydrogen bonding in the composite films. The thermal stability and the tensile strength of hordein/chitosan films significantly increased with gradual addition of hordein(the ratio of hordein to chitosan, from 0:1 to 1:5). While elongation at break, water vapor permeability, water solubility and moisture content of the composite films obviously decreased with the increasing hordein content(the ratio of hordein to chitosan, from 0:1 to 1:5). The composite film HCH5 exhibited the best mechanical and water resistance properties. However, further addition of hordein (HCH3) led to the decrease of the mechanical and physical properties of the composite films. Additionally, the composite film HCH5 showed the most effective preservation on strawberry fruits during 72 h storage at room temperature.
Investigation of the performance of e-CPA for a wide range of properties for aqueous NaCl solutions
2021, Fluid Phase Equilibria
In the past years a number of parametrizations of the e-CPA model have been published. The e-CPA model has shown promising results for electrolyte solution properties. Several of these parametrizations have been investigated in this work for a wide range of properties for aqueous NaCl solutions. Previously published e-CPA parameter sets, which made use of a volume translation to be able to correlate the density, were found to show some inconsistencies, including a suboptimal temperature dependency of the density. A new parametrization is proposed, that is able to reproduce the density without the need of a volume translation, and without loss of accuracy of other properties. This parameter set, together with the previously published parameter sets were tested for their predictability of single ion activity coefficients, and it was found that all of them are incapable of getting the correct trend regarding which ion that is above the mean and which is below. An alternative parametrization has, however been shown to be able to change this without much loss of accuracy with respect to the other properties.
Structuring of reference data on the hygroscopic points of soluble substances
2021, Journal of Chemical Thermodynamics
The article considers a way to expand the capabilities of the dynamic method for measuring hygroscopic points (equilibrium water vapour pressure over saturated solutions of substances) of solubles by applying it to an ordered series of substances with their hygroscopic points in a narrow range of (68–76)% RH. The experimentally measured values of hygroscopic points are proposed as reference data on the hygroscopicity of such substances as carbamide, rubidium chloride, sodium nitrate, strontium chloride; the values for barium bromide and lithium perchlorate are clarified. The capability of the dynamic method to measure the difference between the hygroscopic points of substances enhances its consistency and reliability, makes it possible to present reference data in a structured form. Along with the simplicity of the procedure and the laboratory equipment used, this makes the proposed version of the dynamic method highly competitive among the other methods for determining water vapour pressure over saturated solutions of substances.
Coupled geochemical and compositional wellbore simulators: A case study on scaling tendencies under water evaporation and CO<inf>2</inf> dissolution
2021, Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering
Inorganic deposits are the result of mineral precipitation due to changes in pressure and temperature along water flow and one of the main causes of production decline in the Oil & Gas Industry, as water is usually inherent to any oil/gas production. These deposits may be present in the reservoir, wellbore, and processing facilities. Literature suggests that evaporation of water can significantly increase (if not be the main cause of) mineral precipitation and consequently scale deposition for a gas condensate well. This work aims to determine if evaporation can also play a similar role for an oil well. New achievements towards an integrated platform (called UTWELL, for wellbore simulation) are addressed; however, emphasis is given to the effects of a newly added evaporation model in the case of an offshore oil production well showing calcite precipitation. Results demonstrate that evaporation is only relevant for very small water cuts (<1%), which are characteristic of early stages of production, leading to increased ionic strength and mineral precipitation (calcite and halite). Since scale inhibitors might not be effective for this specific scenario, an alternative solution with dilution water injection is proposed and analyzed. It is estimated that, for 0.1% water cut, the injection of a dilution water flowrate triple that coming from the reservoir can practically eliminate any precipitation in the wellbore. It is also shown that UTWELL is able to match results from commercial multiphase-flow simulator OLGA with the advantage of more physically meaningful aqueous density calculation and the availability of mineral precipitation (absent in the commercial simulator). Although showing similar results for little water content (<1%), total liquid flowrate is 4% lower than when using OLGA for a 50% water cut due to its poor aqueous density calculation, and 8% lower compared with previous version of UTWELL after multiple improvements to the model.
Fate and transport of bromide and mononuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in aqueous solutions through Berea Sandstone
2021, Science of the Total Environment
A series of miscible displacement tests were performed on a 51 mm wide by 76 mm long well-laminated core of Berea Sandstone to determine the transport parameters of the anion bromide and a homologous series of seventeen mononuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (MAHs). In each test, a continuous input pulse of a single tracer was passed through the cylindrical core housed in a hydrostatic core holder at a confining pressure of 200 bar. The effluent concentration, as measured by in-line UV absorbance, versus time resulted in smooth high-resolution sinusoidal breakthrough curves (BTCs). In comparison to the near Gaussian BTCs of bromide, the transport of the MAHs was differentially retarded with minimal levels of delayed transport along the more rapid flow lines, but with progressively more along the slower flow paths. These results show that despite a lack of significant hydraulic heterogeneity, there is a high degree of heterogeneity among the sorption sites. The BTCs were aptly modeled with a one-dimensional flow model consisting of a mixture of instantaneous equilibrium and rate-limited reversible sorption sites. The relative fraction of instantaneous sites increased proportionately with the rate the subject MAH passed through the core. Potential quantitative structure-retention relationships (QSRR) between common chemical parameters of the MAHs and their overall retardation factors, sorption coefficients and the fraction of instantaneous equilibrium were evaluated. Among the compounds examined, relatively strong correlations were found with molecular weight, aqueous solubility, and octanol-water partitioning coefficient with which relative MAH transport retardation, the linear phase distribution coefficient, and the dimensionless partitioning coefficient between sorption sites.
Experimental investigation into the performance of novel SrCl<inf>2</inf>-based composite material for thermochemical energy storage
2021, Journal of Energy Storage
The aim of this research is to explore the potential of a new salt-based thermochemical composite material for long-term storage of heat. Thermal energy storage reduces the mismatch between the supply and demand of renewable energy sources. The salt, SrCl₂⋅6H₂O, and the porous host structure, cement was investigated and compared to the well-researched zeolite 13X. These materials were studied over several cycles using a lab-scale open packed bed reactor. The materials cycled well, with a dehydration temperature of 150 °C. Cement-SrCl₂⋅6H₂O (50 wt.%) and zeolite 13X proved promising candidates with energy densities of 136 kWh m⁻³ and 164 kWh m⁻³ respectively. A thermodynamic analysis has also been conducted for the system. Further research is needed to find strategies to improve the energy storage density or salt loading into porous materials in order for this technology to become commercially viable. This research demonstrates the process to achieve a high energy density over repeated cycles.
