1. 1. Adsorption of Metallic Ions onto Chitosan : Equilibrium and Kinetic Studies

   Författare :Martha Benavente; Joaquín Martínez; Olle Wahlberg; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Adsorption; biosorption; chitin; heavy metals; isotherm; kinetic models; mining; speciation; water treatment; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : Equilibrium isotherms and the adsorption kinetics of heavy metals onto chitosan were studied experimentally. Chitosan, a biopolymer produced from crustacean shells, has applications in various areas, particularly in drinking water and wastewater treatment due to its ability to remove metallic ions from solutions.

3. 2. Transport Coefficients during Drying of Solids containing Multicomponent Mixtures

   Författare :Rafael Gamero; Joaquín Martínez; Evangelos Tsotsas; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; capillary; conduction; convection; diffusion; evaporation; heat transfer; hydraulic conductivity; liquid film; liquid transport; mass transfer; Maxwell-Stefan diffusion coefficients; molar fluxes; phase equilibrium; temperature gradient; ternary mixture; thermodynamic factors; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : This study investigated the transport coefficients involved in mass and heat transfer during the drying of a porous solid partially saturated with multicomponent mixtures.  It included the coefficients governing liquid transport through the solid, the matrix of multicomponent diffusion coefficients in the liquid phase, and the effective thermal conductivity.

   Sammanfattning : Volcanic ash and Moringa oleifera (M. oleifera) were investigated as indigenous materials for drinking water treatment based on problems identified at Kampala and Masaka water treatment plants in Uganda. LÄS MER

5. 4. Modeling Solute Transport in Fractured Rocks-Role of Heterogeneity, Stagnant Water Zone and Decay Chain

   Författare :Batoul Mahmoudzadeh; Longcheng Liu; Joaquin Martinez; Lanru Jing; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solute transport model; Fractured rock; Stagnant water zone; Rock matrix diffusion; Radionuclide decay chain; Geological layers; Laplace transform; Simulation;

   Sammanfattning : A model is developed to describe solute transport and retention in fractured rocks. It accounts for the fact that solutes not only can diffuse directly from the flowing channel into the adjacent rock matrix composed of different geological layers but can also at first diffuse into the stagnant water zone occupied in part of the fracture and then from there into the rock matrix adjacent to it.

7. 5. An Analytical Solution Applied to Heat and Mass Transfer in a Vibrated Fluidised Bed Dryer

   Författare :Apolinar Picado; Joaquín Martínez; Göran Lindbergh; Ivars Neretnieks; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Analytical solution; Heat and mass transfer; Temperature and moisture distribution; Drying modelling; Multicomponent drying; Drying selectivity; Volatile retention; Ternary mixture; Drying of particulate materials; Vibrated fluidised bed dryer; Chemical engineering; Kemiteknik;

   Sammanfattning : A mathematical model for the drying of particulate solids in a continuous vibrated fluidised bed dryer was developed and applied to the drying of grain wetted with a single liquid and porous particles containing multicomponent liquid mixtures. Simple equipment and material models were applied to describe the process. LÄS MER
