  • Appendix A: Distillation and Reverse Osmosis Brine NOD, Phase I
    This document is part of Appendix A and includes Distillation and Reverse Osmosis Brine: Nature of Discharge for the “Phase I Final Rule and Technical Development Document of Uniform National Discharge Standards (UNDS),” published in April 1999. The reference number is EPA-842-R-99-001. Phase I Final Rule and Technical Development Document of Uniform National Discharge Standards (UNDS) Distillation and Reverse Osmosis Brine: Nature of Discharge April 1999 NATURE OF DISCHARGE REPORT Distillation and Reverse Osmosis Brine 1.0 INTRODUCTION The National Defense Authorization Act of 1996 amended Section 312 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA)) to require that the Secretary of Defense and the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) develop uniform national discharge standards (UNDS) for vessels of the Armed Forces for “...discharges, other than sewage, incidental to normal operation of a vessel of the Armed Forces, ...” [Section 312(n)(1)]. UNDS is being developed in three phases. The first phase (which this report supports), will determine which discharges will be required to be controlled by marine pollution control devices (MPCDs)—either equipment or management practices. The second phase will develop MPCD performance standards. The final phase will determine the design, construction, installation, and use of MPCDs. A nature of discharge (NOD) report has been prepared for each of the discharges that has been identified as a candidate for regulation under UNDS. The NOD reports were developed based on information obtained from the technical community within the Navy and other branches of the Armed Forces with vessels potentially subject to UNDS, from information available in existing technical reports and documentation, and, when required, from data obtained from discharge samples that were collected under the UNDS program.

  • Ph Measurements in Salt Solutions Using Differential Technique
    pH Measurements in Salt Solutions Using Differential Technique Industry: Brine Soultions Product: PH450, PH202, SC24V, SM23-AN4, SM23-AN6 3. High Currents Application and Associated pH Chlorinated Brine is measured often close to the electrolysis Problems Cells, where very high currents are present. These currents will easily cause Ground Loop Currents in the pH sensor circuit, which again shortens the lifetime. pH measurement in brine solutions (for example NaCl solutions as found in electrolysis processes or cheese manufacturing) are difficult and inaccuracy and short sensor Alternative Solutions life are the key problems in these applications. These troubles are caused by: Evidently the problems are not related to the pH measuring cell, but almost exclusively to the reference cell. 1. Potential difference Therefore the solution of the problem must be sought in The brine ions tend to create large diffusion potentials in the alternative ways of generating a reference voltage, that is reference junction. The equivalent conductance of a stable over time and is independent on the pH value. Potassium ion (K+) and a Chloride ion (Cl-) are almost the same: ( 75 Scm2equiv-1). That is why KCl is used normally We have found that an excellent solution is to use a for electrolyte solution in reference cells.

  • Ion Exchange Brine Treatment: Closing the Loop of Nacl Use and Reducing Disposal Towards a Zero Liquid Discharge
    Ion exchange brine treatment: closing the loop of NaCl use and reducing disposal towards a zero liquid discharge. E.Vaudevire, E.Koreman PWN Technologies, Dijkweg 1, 1619 HA, ANDIJK (Netherlands) E-mail: [email protected] +31 6 23 41 2923 Abstract Minimizing the volume of waste streams for disposal and avoiding regulatory and environmental issues while recovering the maximum amount of by products is the main purpose of brine treatment. At PWN (Water Supply Company North Holland), where a full scale ion exchange pretreatment plant for drinking water is being built with a capacity of 4000m3/h, brine treatment options are considered to handle the very saline and NOM rich regenerant solution arising from the process. The two equally important challenges are to reduce volume of waste to be transported to the North Sea and to recover NaCl in a pure form to be reused for regeneration of ion exchange resin. In this regard the implementation of nanofiltration aiming at ion separation (monovalent/bivalent) investigated on a pilot scale has proved a good retention of DOC (87%) and sulphate (85%) while allowing sodium and chloride ions passage of respectively 80% and 100%. The ambition is to recover 80% of the ion exchange regenerant brine under a NaCl solution for reuse while the remaining concentrate would be further concentrated 10 times through Dynamic Vapour Recompression: an energy efficient evaporation technic with as a unique benefit its ability to process very high TDS solutions. Keywords Brine treatment, nanofiltration, evaporation, controlled precipitation, NaCl reuse, dynamic vapor recompression Introduction The various applications of ion exchange processes in water treatment: softening, deionization or color and DOC removal lead to the production of saline brines that usually varies between 1,5 and 7% of the total amount of water treated [14].

  • Cheese Brining Instructions
    BRINING DIRECTIONS Brining cheese is the process of floating a cheese in salt water for a period of time to flavor and preserve the cheese. The process is very simple, but to make the brine recipe, you will want to have a Specific Gravity Hydrometer or a Baumè Hydrometer and a Test Jar and pH papers or a pH meter. Ingredients for Light Brine (See table below for making other brine recipes.) 1 gallon Water 14 oz. Kosher or Coarse Salt (See table below for making other brine recipes.) 2 cups Whey collected from making any mild cheese, ripened for 24 hours 10 ml. Calcium Chloride Equipment 2 -4 quart Saucepan Hydrometer Test Jar pH Papers Range 4-5 Plastic or Glass Container large enough to hold the brine and the cheese. Plastic wrap or a lid for this container Method 1. Mix a quart of water in a saucepan and add the salt. Mix and heat until all the salt is dissolved. Note: for strong brine solutions, you may need to add all the water. Add the salt water to the remaining water in a container large enough to hold the brine and the cheese. 2. Allow to cool to room temperature. 3. Add enough ripened Whey to lower the pH to below 5, preferably 4.7. 4. Refrigerate and use for brining in your recipe. Will keep for months. 5. Follow your recipe directions for using the brine. Sometimes you only hold the cheese in the brine overnight, other recipes have you store the cheese in the brine.

  • The Filtration of Bacon Brine

The slice cure process used by my Company sat baC0n Production employs a relatively weak brine (approximately 2/3 Ura-ted) and organisms that can eventually spoil bacon will survive, if ihe aCtually nnritipiy, in it.

  • Ion Exchange for Dummies
    Rohm and Haas Ion Exchange ION EXCHANGE FOR DUMMIES An introduction Water Water is a liquid. Water is made of water molecules (formula H2O). All natural waters contain some foreign substances, usually in small amounts. The water in the river, in a well or from your tap at home is not just H2O, it contains a little of: • Solid, insoluble substances, such as sand or vegetal debris. You can in principle filter these solid substances out. • Soluble substances, that you most often cannot see and that cannot be filtered out. These substances can be inorganic or organic, they can be ionised (electrically charged) or not. The soluble, non-ionised substances are present in the water in form of molecules of various sizes and formulas, for instance: • Carbon dioxide is a small molecule with a simple formula: CO2. • Sugar is a larger molecule with a complicated formula abbreviated as C12H22O11. You may want to remove these foreign substances from the water. You can remove the ionised substances by ion exchange. Ions The soluble, ionised substances are present in water as ions, which are electrically charged atoms or molecules. The positively charged ions are called cations, and the negatively charged ions are called anions. Because water is globally neutral electrically (otherwise you would get an electric shock when you put your hand in water) the number of positive charges is identical to the number of negative charges. Ions can have one charge or more, the most usual range being 1 to 3. Ions can be made of one atom only, or several atoms linked permanently together, like molecules.
