An amorphous silica- adsorbed phase to inert. alumina and a microporous zeolite were prepared by both techniques and then nitrogen isotherms were collected 2. Heat – increase the rate. for both materials. The resulting isotherms established equivalence between vacuum versus flow degas. Vacuum versus Flowing Degas Methods In the present study we accept that temperature may be controlled by various methods and that commercial temperature controllers provide repeatable performance. Rather than studying temperature control, this document will evaluate the topic of vacuum versus flowing degas. 1. Vacuum degas utilizes mass action as the only method for shifting the chemical equilibrium. An adsorbed molecule has a concentration on the surface, C and a negligible pressure, P=0 in the vapor phase. The pressure is maintained near zero since the sample is in a vacuum. Heating the sample increases the rate of transfer from the adsorbed molecules to the inert environment. 2. Flowing degas also utilizes mass action Theory by constant inert purge. The desorbed molecules are swept from the system Typical degas options include vacuum or flowing degas. The via the continuous inert gas flow and the basic concept of degas is quite simple. The sample material partial pressure of the desorbed molecules is placed in an inert environment. This inert environment in an inert stream approaches zero in a exploits chemical potential and creates a favorable state for manner similar to the vacuum technique.

  • Lateral Degassing Method for Disposable Film-Chip Microfluidic
    membranes Article Lateral Degassing Method for Disposable Film-Chip Microfluidic Devices Suhee Park, Hyungseok Cho, Junhyeong Kim and Ki-Ho Han * Center for Nano Manufacturing, Department of Nanoscience and Engineering, Inje University, Gimhae 50834, Gyongnam, Korea; [email protected] (S.P.); [email protected] (H.C.); [email protected] (J.K.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: It is critical to develop a fast and simple method to remove air bubbles inside microchan- nels for automated, reliable, and reproducible microfluidic devices. As an active degassing method, this study introduces a lateral degassing method that can be easily implemented in disposable film-chip microfluidic devices. This method uses a disposable film-chip microchannel superstrate and a reusable substrate, which can be assembled and disassembled simply by vacuum pressure. The disposable microchannel superstrate is readily fabricated by bonding a microstructured poly- dimethylsiloxane replica and a silicone-coated release polymeric thin film. The reusable substrate can be a plate that has no function or is equipped with the ability to actively manipulate and sense substances in the microchannel by an elaborately patterned energy field. The degassing rate of the lateral degassing method and the maximum available pressure in the microchannel equipped with lateral degassing were evaluated. The usefulness of this method was demonstrated using complex structured microfluidic devices, such as a meandering microchannel, a microvortex, a gradient micromixer, and a herringbone micromixer, which often suffer from bubble formation. In conclusion, as an easy-to-implement and easy-to-use technique, the lateral degassing method will be a key Citation: Park, S.; Cho, H.; Kim, J.; technique to address the bubble formation problem of microfluidic devices.

  • Liquid Sulfur Degassing: Fundamentals and New Technology Development
    LIQUID SULPHUR DEGASSING: FUNDAMENTALS AND NEW TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT IN SULPHUR RECOVERY P.D. Clark, Department of Chemistry, University of Calgary and Alberta Sulphur Research Ltd., M.A. Shields, M. Huang and N.I. Dowling, Alberta Sulphur Research Ltd. and D. Cicerone, Cicerone & Associates LLC. Contact: [email protected] Abstract Liquid sulphur degassing remains an important component of a Claus sulphur recovery system as a result of the need to produce high purity liquid and solid sulphur (< 10 ppmw residual H2S). Importantly, this process must be accomplished without increasing plant emissions. At present, several effective technologies exist for sulphur degassing, mostly based on air sparge of the liquid in a variety of contraptions. These processes produce large volumes of air contaminated with sulphur vapour, H2O, H2S and SO2 which, if compressed back into the air supply systems, cause plugging and corrosion problems. Formerly, the contaminated air was flowed to the incinerator but this practice is calculated to lower total sulphur recovery by as much as 0.1 %. One objective of this paper is to review the fundamentals of sulphur degassing with air explaining how H2Sx is decomposed and why SO2 is always produced when air is used. Secondly, new data on liquid sulphur degassing with solid catalysts will be discussed, and it will be explained how this information could be applied to liquid sulphur degassing both upstream and downstream of the sulphur locks. These adaptations will avoid use of air and should improve overall sulphur recovery as well as achieve sulphur degassing. Lastly, it will be shown that modifications to sulphur condensers throughout the plant may allow simultaneous degassing and, possibly, an increase in overall sulphur recovery.

  • The Origin of Titan's Atmosphere: Some Recent Advances
    The origin of Titan’s atmosphere: some recent advances By Tobias Owen1 & H. B. Niemann2 1University of Hawaii, Institute for Astronomy, 2680 Woodlawn Drive, Honolulu, HI 96822, USA 2Laboratory for Atmospheres, Goddard Space Fight Center, Greenbelt, MD 20771, USA It is possible to make a consistent story for the origin of Titan’s atmosphere starting with the birth of Titan in the Saturn subnebula. If we use comet nuclei as a model, Titan’s nitrogen and methane could easily have been delivered by the ice that makes up ∼50% of its mass. If Titan’s atmospheric hydrogen is derived from that ice, it is possible that Titan and comet nuclei are in fact made of the same protosolar ice. The noble gas abundances are consistent with relative abundances found in the atmospheres of Mars and Earth, the sun, and the meteorites. Keywords: Origin, atmosphere, composition, noble gases, deuterium 1. Introduction In this note, we will assume that Titan originated in Saturn’s subnebula as a result of the accretion of icy planetesimals: particles and larger lumps made of ice and rock. Alibert & Mousis (2007) reached this same point of view using an evolutionary, turbulent model of Saturn’s subnebula. They found that planetesimals made in the solar nebula according to their model led to a huge overabundance of CO on Titan. We obviously have no direct measurements of the composition of these planetes- imals. We can use comets as a guide, always remembering that comets formed in the solar nebula where conditions must have been different from those in Saturn’s subnebula, e.g., much colder.

  • Understanding the Formation of CO2 and Its Degassing Behaviours in Coffee
    Understanding the Formation of CO2 and Its Degassing Behaviours in Coffee by Xiuju Wang A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Food Science Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Xiuju Wang, May, 2014 ABSTRACT UNDERSTANDING THE FORMATION OF CO2 AND ITS DEGASSING BEHAVIOURS IN COFFEE Xiuju Wang Advisor: University of Guelph, 2014 Professor Loong-Tak Lim In the present study, the effect of roasting temperature-time conditions on residual CO2 content and its degassing behaviours in roasted coffee was investigated. The results show that the residual CO2 content in the roasted coffee beans was only dependent on the degree of roast and independent on the roasting temperature applied. However, CO2 degassing was shown significantly faster (p<0.05) in roasted coffee processed with high- temperature-short-time (HTST) than those roasted with low-temperature-long-time (LTLT) process. Moreover, the CO2 degassing rate increased with the degree of roast. CO2 degassing in ground coffee was significantly faster than in whole beans with the rate highly dependent on the grind size and roasting temperature, but less dependent on the degree of roast. CO2 degassing rate increased with the increasing of environmental temperature and relative humidity. Although CO2 degassing has been a challenging problem in the coffee industry for decades, there is still no clear understanding of precursors of CO2. In the present study, the hypothesis of “chlorogenic acid (CGA) is the principal precursor of CO2” was tested. Although strong negative linear correlation (R2>0.9) between total CGA and residual CO2 content during coffee roasting was detected, and vanishing of IR bands of the C=O group in caffeic acid and quinic acid moieties during heating of pure CGA at coffee roasting temperature was observed, the quantification analysis of CO2 generation from pure CGA heating indicated only ~ 8% yields at 230°C, which led us to conclude that CGA was one of the CO2 precursors but not the principal one.
