  2. Alginic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alginic_acid

    Alginate was discovered by British chemical scientist E. C. C. Stanford in 1881, and he patented an extraction process for it in the same year. [4] The alginate was extracted, in the original patent, by first soaking the algae in water or diluted acid, then extracting the alginate by soaking it in sodium carbonate , and finally precipitating ...

  3. Syneresis (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syneresis_(chemistry)

    Syneresis (also spelled 'synæresis' or 'synaeresis'), in chemistry, is the extraction or expulsion of a liquid from a gel, such as when serum drains from a contracting clot of blood. Another example of syneresis is the collection of whey on the surface of yogurt .

  4. Calcium alginate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium_alginate

    Calcium alginate is a water-insoluble, gelatinous, cream-coloured substance that can be created through the addition of aqueous calcium chloride to aqueous sodium alginate. Calcium alginate is also used for entrapment of enzymes and forming artificial seeds in plant tissue culture.

Photograph of a separatory funnel in a laboratory scale extraction of 2 immiscible liquids: liquids are a diethyl ether upper phase, and a lower aqueous phase. Soxhlet extractor. Extraction in chemistry is a separation process consisting of the separation of a substance from a matrix. The distribution ...

  7. Micro-encapsulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro-encapsulation

    The problem may be as simple as masking the taste or odor of the core, or as complex as increasing the selectivity of an adsorption or extraction process. In environmental science, a pesticide may be microencapsulated to minimize leaching or volatilization risks. [12] DNA protection from degradation for product tracing [13] and data storage [14]

  8. Mixer-settler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mixer-settler

    Mixer-settler scheme. Mixer settlers are a class of mineral process equipment used in the solvent extraction process. A mixer settler consists of a first stage that mixes the phases together followed by a quiescent settling stage that allows the phases to separate by gravity.

  9. Elution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elution

    Elution then is the process of removing analytes from the adsorbent by running a solvent, called an "eluent", past the adsorbent–analyte complex. As the solvent molecules "elute", or travel down through the chromatography column, they can either pass by the adsorbent–analyte complex or displace the analyte by binding to the adsorbent in its ...
