Electroflox® Pilot plant for primary wastewater treatment of leachate

Marriaga-Cabrales N., Machuca-Martinez F., Donneys-Victoria D., Alvarez-Pugliese C.E., UNIVERSIDAD DEL VALLE, CO

Landfill leachates are liquid effluents that contain a high pollutant load and represent a serious environmental challenge for the disposal sites; Even after the useful life of a landfill, leachates continue to be generated for [...]

Analysis and Measurement of Ink Media Interactions in Inkjet Printing

Sharma R., Bedford E., Brys B., Viswanath K.T., Furlani E.P., Cabot Corporation, US

The development of modern inkjet printing systems is a complex process that requires an interdisciplinary team to address numerous critical and fundamental issues encountered throughout the commercialization cycle. An inkjet development effort spans a broad [...]

Using Zeta Potential to Optimize the Water Clarification Process in a Full-Scale Water Production Facility

Nobbmann U., Gertig K.R., Billica J.A., Morfesis A., Malvern Instruments, Inc., US

Zeta potential provides a measurable value to monitor optimal water clarification capabilities. The magnitude of the zeta potential value indicates the repulsive interaction between particles; a zero zeta potential means that the conditions for the [...]

Influence of structural forces and contact hysteresis on flow-induced aggregation and breakage of polymer nanoparticles

Moussa A.S., Ehrl L., Soos M., Lattuada M., Morbidelli M., ETH Zürich, CH

Static light scattering was used on-line to monitor the flow-induced aggregation of surfactant-free polystyrene latexes in a stirred tank. Various latexes with primary particles diameters ranging between 100 and 300 nm, different charge groups, different [...]
