摘要:
An aqueous solution of hydroxylamine sulfate and a solution of nitric acid are each circulated from tanks (5, 6) through alternate adjacent chambers in an electrodialysis cell (2) or diffusion dialysis cell, the chambers being separated by cation exchange membrane (1); dialysis occurs so that NH₃OH⁺ and H⁺ ions pass through the membrane and the nitric acid is converted to hydroxylamine nitrate product. The solutions are recirculated by pumps (7, 8). In the hydroxylamine sulfate solution, the SO₄⁻⁻ anions remain, and since the H⁺ ions permeate thereinto, sulfuric acid is formed; and at a concentration of above 0.2 N the SO₄⁻ ion passes through the membrane and would contaminate the product. The NH₃OHNO₃ solution is therefore circulated simultaneously into a diffusion dialysis cell (22) having a number of anion exchange membranes (21); pure water is circulated countercurrently through alternate chambers in the cell (22) to remove the acid.

Ammonium metatungstate is produced by contacting the anolyte side of a cation exchange membrane with an aqueous solution of ammonium tungstate and applying an electrical potential across the membrane such as to effect the transport of ammonium ions from said solution through the membrane to lowerthe pH of the solution to a level at which ammonium metatungstate is formed.

摘要:
Chemical compounds can be dissociated by contacting the same with a p/n type semi-conductor diode having visible light as its sole source of energy. The diode consists of low cost, readily available materials, specifically polycrystalline iron oxide doped with silicon in the case of the n-type semi-conductor electrode, and polycrystalline iron oxide doped with magnesium in the case of the p-type electrode. So long as the light source has an energy greater than 2.2 electron volts, no added energy source is needed to achieve dissociation.

摘要:
A streamline flow of aqueous cobalt (II) sulphate solution passes through a platimum tube which, as an anode, electrolyses the solution to cobalt (III). The flow, with a high surface concentration of nascent cobalt (III), falls into a volume of 1-methylnaphthalene in an organic solvent, and is recovered from underneath for recycling to the platinum tube anode. The cobalt (III) reacts with the 1-methylnapthalene to form 1-naphthaldehyde. Other oxidations of organic reactants using nascent high-oxidation-state aqueous metal ions are also disclosed.
