Role of Reactive Extraction in Removal of Phenol from Wastewater
Abstract: Phenol is one of the most common organic water pollutants as it is highly toxic even at low concentration. Also, its presence in natural water can lead to the formation of substituted compounds during disinfection and oxidation processes. Reactive extraction method is found to be a capable alternate for separation of medium (300–3000 mg/l) to high (3000–6000 mg/l) concentration of phenol. The degree of extraction depends on nature of extractant, …

Parametric Studies of In-house Resin for Hardness Removal
Abstract: Presence of high amount of calcium and/or magnesium makes the water hard as these ions in water react with other chemical agents and constituents of metallic plumbing etc. The process accelerates in the presence of heat. It decreases the efficiency of the unit operation due to the formation of scales. Hence, scaling is the main issue for which hard water is required to be treated or polished. De-mineralized water finds …

An Experimental Study of Spherical Agglomeration of Benzoic acid And Influence of Process Parameters
Abstract: Through the process of drowning-out crystallisation in three partly miscible solvent mixtures, sphere aggregates of benzoic crystal have been successfully created. The mixture of benzoic acid, isopropyl alcohol, and bridging liquid is supplied to an agitated crystallizer with water acting as the anti-solvent. When a substance crystallises, little crystals are formed, and the bridging liquid causes the crystals to group together. Different solvents are utilised because benzoic acid crystals wettably …
