Journal ArticleDOI

Fermentation of Glucose to Lactic Acid Coupled with Reactive Extraction: A Review

TL;DR: In this article, a suitable extractant−diluent system for lactic acid extraction on the basis of distribution coefficient, toxicity, and feasibility for backextraction is suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reactive extraction of lactic acid using alamine 336 in MIBK: equilibria and kinetics

TL;DR: The theory of extraction accompanied by a chemical reaction has been used to obtain the kinetics of extraction of lactic acid by alamine 336 in MIBK and it is indicated that more lactic Acid is transferred to the organic phase than would be expected from the (1:1) stoichiometry of the reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of CuO nanoparticles in enhancing the thermal conductivity of water and monoethylene glycol based nanofluids

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of CuO nanoparticles on the thermal conductivity of base fluids like mono ethylene glycol and water was studied with regard to various factors; concentration of nanoparticles, types of base fluid, sonication time and settlement time.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of lead, zinc and iron by coagulation–flocculation

TL;DR: In this article, the coagulant dosage required to achieve more than 99% removal of heavy metals (Pb, Zn and Fe) increased with the initial concentrations of Zn(II), whereas, the presence of 25-45 µm/L of Fe(III) in the mixed solutions containing Pb(II) and Fe (III) reduced the dose required for more than 95% removal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oil field effluent water treatment for safe disposal by electroflotation

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of an electroflotation cell with perforated aluminium electrodes was examined and the effect of operating parameters such as pH, voltage, oil concentration, flotation time, and salinity.
