Abstract:
A process for reducing the fluorosurfactant content of an aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion by filling a container with fluoropolymer dispersion, inserting into the container a fabric pouch containing a fluorosurfactant sorbent so that the sorbent contacts the fluorosurfactant-containing aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion in the container and retains the fluorosurfactant to reduce fluorosurfactant content of said fluorosurfactant-containing aqueous fluoropolymer dispersion, and removing the fabric pouch from the container.
Abstract:
A method for reducing undesirable odor of an anion exchange resins by preparing a composition comprising an admixture comprising an anion exchange resin having an undesirable odor and a cation exchange resin; and converting the mixture to form the composition.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of iron oxide/iron oxyhydroxide-containing weakly basic anion exchangers prepared according to the phthalimide process and their use for removing oxo anions and their thio analogues, preferably of arsenic, from water and aqueous solutions and to a regeneration process.
Abstract:
An improved system of resins comprising a combination of a sulfate-specific strongly basic anion exchange resin and a heterogenous hybrid thermally regenerable salt sorbent (TRSS) resin is provided. The anion exchange resin contains triethylamine and/or tributylamine groups. The TRSS resin comprises a macroporous host copolymer and a crosslinked guest copolymer having, respectively, weak acid groups and weak base groups. The system is used to treat feed water containing dissolved ions, including sulfate ions, and is efficiently regenerated.
Abstract:
A continuous water treatment system comprising at least two stationary cylindrical vessels, wherein each vessel contains an ion exchange resin, and each vessel has at each end a flat head and a fractal liquid distributor.
Abstract:
In recovering hexavalent chromium from chrome plated steel strip which is wetted with plating solution as a result of dragout from the plating process, an aqueous solution containing hexavalent chromium in relatively low concentration is concentrated in a process comprising treating in a first cation exchange zone, treating in an anion exchange zone, regenerating the anion exchange zone and treating the effluent of regeneration in a cation exchange zone different from the first cation exchange zone. The concentrated solution is passed to a storage zone and recirculation is carried out between the storage zone and the plating zone and solution is passed from the storage zone to an evaporation zone and more concentrated solution is passed from the evaporation zone to the storage zone. In regenerating the anion exchange zone, only a portion of the hexavalent chromium is removed.
