Download or read book Handbook on Particle Separation Processes written by Arjen van Nieuwenhuijzen and published by IWA Publishing. This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Particles in water play an important role in all kinds of water quality and treatment issues. Since the early beginnings of centralised water production and treatment, the main goal of water purification was primarily the removal of water turbidity in order to produce clear water free from visible particles. The Handbook on Particle Separation Processes provides knowledge and expertise from a selected group of international experts with a wealth of experience in the field of particles and particle separation in water and wastewater treatment. The Handbook on Particle Separation Processes includes an edited selection of presentations and workshops held at the academic summer school Particle Separation in Water and Wastewater Treatment, organised under the supervision of the IWA Specialist Group Particle Separation.

Download or read book Quantitative Understanding of Nanoparticle Flocculation in Water Treatment written by Sungmin Youn and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flocculation is critical in drinking water treatment; in flocculation, the particle size distribution changes from a large number of small particles to a small number of larger particles. Larger particles are effectively removed by settling and filtration processes that follow flocculation. In recent years, manufacturing of engineered nanoparticles has skyrocketed, and these nanoparticles can enter our water supplies, but knowledge of their fate in water treatment is limited. The objective of this research was to update knowledge of flocculation by extending previous work at the microscale to the nanoscale. Flocculation involves transport of particles to the vicinity of one another and subsequent attachment if interactions at close distances are favorable. Transport and possible collisions are brought about by Brownian motion, differential sedimentation, and fluid shear; these processes, even at the nanoscale, are well understood. Whether collisions and attachment actually occur, however, depend on a balance of hydrodynamic interactions, van der Waals attraction, and electrostatic repulsion; this research quantitatively assessed, for the first time, this balance for collisions of nanoparticles by all three collision mechanisms using a well-established trajectory analysis approach. The collision efficiency ([alpha]) is the ratio of the number of successful collisions (attachment) to the number of collisions predicted by the transport equations. The analysis was performed with and without electrostatic repulsion, which occurs if particles are charged. In all cases, Brownian motion was the dominant flocculation mechanism. However, without electrostatic repulsion, differential sedimentation and fluid shear were found to be far more important than heretofore expected because the [alpha] value can be substantially higher than one, contrary to all previous understanding. With electrostatic repulsion, collisions by these two mechanisms were found to occur only if the particles are substantially different in size. Experiments in which the changes in particle size distributions of nanoparticles were carefully monitored were also performed, and the results compared to the mathematical predictions. Although not perfect, excellent agreement between the measured and predicted particle size distributions was found. The conclusion is optimistic: if nanoparticles are properly destabilized to reduce or eliminate surface charge, they will be well removed in conventional water treatment plants.
Download or read book Handbook on Characterization of Biomass Biowaste and Related By products written by Ange Nzihou and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 1394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides authoritative information, techniques and data necessary for the appropriate understanding of biomass and biowaste (understood as contaminated biomass) composition and behaviour while processed in various conditions and technologies. Numerous techniques for characterizing biomass, biowaste and by-product streams exist in literature. However, there lacks a reference book where these techniques are gathered in a single book, although such information is in increasingly high demand. This handbook provides a wealth of characterization methods, protocols, standards, databases and references relevant to various biomass, biowaste materials and by-products. It specifically addresses sampling and preconditioning methods, extraction techniques of elements and molecules, as well as biochemical, mechanical and thermal characterization methods. Furthermore, advanced and innovative methods under development are highlighted. The characterization will allow the analysis, identification and quantification of molecules and species including biomass feedstocks and related conversion products. The characterization will also provide insight into physical, mechanical and thermal properties of biomass and biowaste as well as the resulting by-products.
