Membrane Seperation Processes, Supp. A
I PROCESS ECONOMICS PROGRAM SRI INTERNATIONAL Menlo Park, California 94025 Abstract Process Economics Program Report No. 190A MEMBRANE GAS SEPARATION PROCESSES (January 1990) Advances in membrane technology in areas such as reverse osmosis and ultrafiltration have led to the development and commercial introduction of membranes for large-scale in- dustrial gas separations. This report studies four major applications--nitrogen production from air, oxygen-enriched air, hydrogen recovery from ammonia purge gas, and carbon dioxide separation from methane. Process economics for each application is presented, based on a preliminary process design. Competing separation operations are reviewed and competitive economics are evaluated for air separation by pressure swing adsorption. A technical review presents the essential criteria for designing on-site systems and membrane system attributes that affect economic competitiveness. Process design features required for the different industrial gas separations are also summarized, and the types of procedures employed to determine membrane area requirements are briefly described. a Finally, gas membrane system development activity by major world regions is presented, along with a review of the main market segments and a listing of current and potential applica- tions for gas membrane separation technology. Also, a look at the major supplier’s technology and market position is presented along with an SRI estimate of the number of currently installed units.

SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN FRONTIERS PROGRAM #1503 "Going Deep" AIRDATE: February 2, 2005 ALAN ALDA Hello and welcome to Scientific American Frontiers. I'm Alan Alda. It's said that the oceans, which cover more than two thirds of the earth's surface, are less familiar to us than the surface of the moon. If you consider the volume of the oceans, it's actually more than ninety percent of the habitable part of the earth that we don't know too much about. The main reason for our relative ignorance is simply that the deep ocean is an absolutely forbidding environment. It's pitch dark, extremely cold and with pressures that are like having a 3,000-foot column of lead pressing down on every square inch -- which does sound pretty uncomfortable. In this program we're going to see how people finally made it to the ocean floor, and we'll find out about the scientific revolutions they brought back with them. We're going to go diving in the Alvin, the little submarine that did so much of the work. And we're going to glimpse the future, as Alvin's successor takes shape in a small seaside town on Cape Cod. That's coming up in tonight's episode, Going Deep. INTO THE DEEP ALAN ALDA (NARRATION) Woods Hole, Massachusetts. It's one of the picturesque seaside towns that draw the tourists to Cape Cod each year. But few seaside towns have what Woods Hole has. For 70 years it's been home to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution — an organization that does nothing but study the world's oceans. -

Curtis1,*, Kara R. Wall1, Mark A. Albins2, Christopher D. Stallings1 1College of Marine Science, University of South Florida, St. Petersburg, FL 33705, USA 2University of South Alabama, Mobile, AL 36608, USA ABSTRACT: In marine ecosystems, little is known about how competition with invasive fishes may affect the resource use of native predators. Throughout the western Atlantic, invasive Indo-Pacific lionfishes (Pterois spp.) are likely to compete with native mesopredators such as the graysby Cephalopholis cruentata, an ecologically similar serranid. In conjunction with a before-after- control- impact lionfish removal experiment, this study measured whether graysby population size, diet, and condition varied in relation to cohabitant lionfish biomass. Lionfish, graysby, and prey popu- lations were surveyed and sampled along a contiguous reef ledge in Biscayne National Park, south Florida. Mesopredator diet was measured with stable isotope (δ13C and δ15N) and gut con- tent analyses, and isotopic niches were used to compare patterns of inter- and intraspecific resource use diversity. The isotopic niches of graysby and lionfishes overlapped by 67%, suggest- ing similar population-level resource use. On sites with higher lionfish biomass, graysby isotopic niche was 34% smaller and overlapped 47% less with that of lionfishes, possibly indicating both a narrower breadth of resource use and associated interspecific niche segregation. -
