Titrimetric methods were not well received by the analytical chemists of that era because they could not duplicate the accuracy and precision of a gravimetric analysis. Not surprisingly, few standard texts from the 1700s and 1800s include titrimetric methods of analysis. Precipitation gravimetry developed as an analytical method without a general theory of precipitation. An empirical relationship between a precipitate’s mass and the mass of analyte— what analytical chemists call a gravimetric factor—was determined experimentally by taking a known mass of analyte through the procedure. Today, we recognize this as an early example of an external standardization. Gravimetric factors were not calculated using the stoichiometry of a precipitation reaction because chemical formulas and atomic weights were not yet available! Unlike gravimetry, the development and acceptance of titrimetry required a deeper understanding of stoichiometry, of thermodynamics, and of chemical equilibria. By the 1900s, the accuracy and precision of titrimetric methods were comparable to that of gravimetric methods, establishing titrimetry as an accepted analytical technique. 411 412 Analytical Chemistry 2.0 9A Overview of Titrimetry We are deliberately avoiding the term In titrimetry we add a reagent, called the titrant, to a solution contain- analyte at this point in our introduction ing another reagent, called the titrand, and allow them to react.

  • Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy
    Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy Introduction Gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) is one of the so-called hyphenated analytical techniques. As the name implies, it is actually two techniques that are combined to form a single method of analyzing mixtures of chemicals. Gas chromatography separates the components of a mixture and mass spectroscopy characterizes each of the components individually. By combining the two techniques, an analytical chemist can both qualitatively and quantitatively evaluate a solution containing a number of chemicals. Gas Chromatography In general, chromatography is used to separate mixtures of chemicals into individual components. Once isolated, the components can be evaluated individually. In all chromatography, separation occurs when the sample mixture is introduced (injected) into a mobile phase. In liquid chromatography (LC), the mobile phase is a solvent. In gas chromatography (GC), the mobile phase is an inert gas such as helium. The mobile phase carries the sample mixture through what is referred to as a stationary phase. The stationary phase is usually a chemical that can selectively attract components in a sample mixture. The stationary phase is usually contained in a tube of some sort called a column. Columns can be glass or stainless steel of various dimensions. The mixture of compounds in the mobile phase interacts with the stationary phase. Each compound in the mixture interacts at a different rate. Those that interact the fastest will exit (elute from) the column first. Those that interact slowest will exit the column last. By changing characteristics of the mobile phase and the stationary phase, different mixtures of chemicals can be separated.

  • Ultracentrifugation Techniques for the Ordering of Nanoparticles
    nanomaterials Review Ultracentrifugation Techniques for the Ordering of Nanoparticles Xufeng Xu 1,† and Helmut Cölfen 2,* 1 Laboratory of Physical Chemistry, Department of Chemical Engineering and Chemistry, Eindhoven University of Technology, 5612AE Eindhoven, The Netherlands; [email protected] 2 Physical Chemistry, University of Konstanz, Universitätsstraße 10, Box 714, 78457 Konstanz, Germany * Correspondence: [email protected] † Present address: Institute of Materials, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne, 1015 Lausanne, Switzerland. Abstract: A centrifugal field can provide an external force for the ordering of nanoparticles. Especially with the knowledge from in-situ characterization by analytical (ultra)centrifugation, nanoparticle ordering can be rationally realized in preparative (ultra)centrifugation. This review summarizes the work back to the 1990s, where intuitive use of centrifugation was achieved for the fabrication of colloidal crystals to the very recent work where analytical (ultra)centrifugation is employed to tailor-make concentration gradients for advanced materials. This review is divided into three main parts. In the introduction part, the history of ordering microbeads in gravity is discussed and with the size of particles reduced to nanometers, a centrifugal field is necessary. In the next part, the research on the ordering of nanoparticles in analytical and preparative centrifugation in recent decades is described. In the last part, the applications of the functional materials, fabricated from centrifugation-induced nanoparticle superstructures are briefly discussed.

  • Troubleshooting Activated Sludge Processes Introduction
    Troubleshooting Activated Sludge Processes Introduction Excess Foam High Effluent Suspended Solids High Effluent Soluble BOD or Ammonia Low effluent pH Introduction Review of the literature shows that the activated sludge process has experienced operational problems since its inception. Although they did not experience settling problems with their activated sludge, Ardern and Lockett (Ardern and Lockett, 1914a) did note increased turbidity and reduced nitrification with reduced temperatures. By the early 1920s continuous-flow systems were having to deal with the scourge of activated sludge, bulking (Ardem and Lockett, 1914b, Martin 1927) and effluent suspended solids problems. Martin (1927) also describes effluent quality problems due to toxic and/or high-organic- strength industrial wastes. Oxygen demanding materials would bleedthrough the process. More recently, Jenkins, Richard and Daigger (1993) discussed severe foaming problems in activated sludge systems. Experience shows that controlling the activated sludge process is still difficult for many plants in the United States. However, improved process control can be obtained by systematically looking at the problems and their potential causes. Once the cause is defined, control actions can be initiated to eliminate the problem. Problems associated with the activated sludge process can usually be related to four conditions (Schuyler, 1995). Any of these can occur by themselves or with any of the other conditions. The first is foam. So much foam can accumulate that it becomes a safety problem by spilling out onto walkways. It becomes a regulatory problem as it spills from clarifier surfaces into the effluent. The second, high effluent suspended solids, can be caused by many things. It is the most common problem found in activated sludge systems.

  • Chemical Industry Wastewater Treatment
    CHEMICAL INDUSTRY WASTEWATER TREATMENT Fayza A. Nasr\ Hala S. Doma\ Hisham S Abdel-Halim", Saber A. El-Shafai* * Water Pollution Research department, National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt "Faculty of Engineering, Cairo University, Cairo, Egypt Abstract Treatment of chemical industrial wastewater from building and construction chemicals factory and plastic shoes manufacturing factory was investigated. The two factories discharge their wastewater into the public sewerage network. The results showed the wastewater discharged from the building and construction chemicals factory was highly contaminated with organic compounds. The average values of COD and BOD were 2912 and 150 mg02/l. Phenol concentration up to 0.3 mg/l was detected. Chemical treatment using lime aided with ferric chloride proved to be effective and produced an effluent characteristics in compliance with Egyptian permissible limits. With respect to the other factory, industrial wastewater was mixed with domestic wastewater in order to lower the organic load. The COD, BOD values after mixing reached 5239 and 2615 mg02/l. The average concentration of phenol was 0.5 mg/l. Biological treatment using activated sludge or rotating biological contactor (RBC) proved to be an effective treatment system in terms of producing an effluent characteristic within the permissible limits set by the law. Therefore, the characteristics of chemical industrial wastewater determine which treatment system to utilize. Based on laboratory results TESCE, Vol. 30, No.2 <@> December 2004 engineering design of each treatment system was developed and cost estimate prepared.

  • Review of the Ion Exchange Filtration Process and Materials Used August 4, 2020
    National Organic Standards Board Handli ng Subcommittee Proposal Review of the Ion Exchange Filtration Process and Materials Used August 4, 2020 Background: In an August 27, 2019, memo the National Organic Program requested the NOSB provide recommendations related to the process of ion exchange filtration in the handling of organic products. It has become clear that there is inconsistency between certifiers in how they approve or disapprove this type of process. Some certifiers require only the solutions that are used to recharge the ion exchange membranes be on the National List at § 205.605. Others require that all materials, including ion exchange membranes and resins be on the National List. The National Organic Program provided clarification to certifying agents in an email sent on May 7, 2019, that nonagricultural substances used in the ion-exchange process must be present on the National List. This would include, but is not limited to, resins, membranes and recharge materials. Originally, the NOP asked all operations to come into compliance with the statement above by May 1, 2020. However, in response to requests for clarification of NOP’s rationale, as well as requests to extend the timeline for implementation, the NOP delayed the implementation date in order to gather more information and requested that NOSB review the issue. Manufacturers and certifiers who wish to continue allowance of the ion exchange process disagree with some of the findings of the NOP on this complex issue. The different opinions of the need for resins, recharge materials and membranes to be present on the National List, as well as how they interact with each other and the liquid run through the process, is complicated and the NOP therefore asked the NOSB to take on this issue.
