摘要:
The invention relates to a reactor for the treatment of wastewater solutions containing cyanide and other dissolved organic material, having an elongated tube having an entrance (28) and an exit (32), and an energy source (22) for the tube, preferably positioned adjacent the exit. The energy source generates intense energy such that a cyanide/organic material-containing solution can be treated by passing it through the tube to expose it to said energy so that the solution absorbs sufficient energy from the energy source to degrade the cyanide and/or dissolved organic material contained therein. The source of intense energy is preferably a plasma, e.g. a plasma generated by a plasma torch or a DC electric arc. The invention also relates to a process of treatment of such a wastewater solution by passing it through such a reactor.
摘要:
A process is described for the treatment of spent pot lining material from electrolyte reduction cells, this spent material having a substantial content of cryolite. The spent material is first leached with water at a dilution and a time sufficient to dissolve substantially all water soluble fluorides, after which the solid residue is separated from the liquid. The solid residue obtained is then subjected to a caustic leach with an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution containing about 20 to 50 g/L of NaOH and thereafter the solid residue is separated from the liquid.

The present invention is directed to the recovery of bacteria and microparasites, particularly Cryptosporidium and Giardia, from water samples by filtration through a mixed cellulose ester membrane, partial dissolution of said membrane with methanol followed by completion in the presence of acetone, and purification and concentration using glass beads as a secondary confinement matrix.
