  2. Potassium permanganate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_permanganate

    It is a purplish-black crystalline salt, which dissolves in water as K + and MnO − 4 ions to give an intensely pink to purple solution. Potassium permanganate is widely used in the chemical industry and laboratories as a strong oxidizing agent , and also as a medication for dermatitis , for cleaning wounds , and general disinfection .

  3. Aqueous two-phase system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqueous_two-phase_system

    Aqueous biphasic systems (ABS) or aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) are clean alternatives for traditional organic-water solvent extraction systems.. ABS are formed when either two polymers, one polymer and one kosmotropic salt, or two salts (one chaotropic salt and the other a kosmotropic salt) are mixed at appropriate concentrations or at a particular temperature.

  4. Salt water chlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_water_chlorination

    Salt water chlorination is a process that uses dissolved salt (1000–4000 ppm or 1–4 g/L) for the chlorination of swimming pools and hot tubs.The chlorine generator (also known as salt cell, salt generator, salt chlorinator, or SWG) uses electrolysis in the presence of dissolved salt to produce chlorine gas or its dissolved forms, hypochlorous acid and sodium hypochlorite, which are already ...

  5. Ultrafiltration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrafiltration

    The feed is passed through the system from which permeate is separated and collected from the edge of the plate. Channel length can range from 10–60 cm and channel heights from 0.5–1.0 mm. [ 8 ] This module provides low volume hold-up, relatively easy replacement of the membrane and the ability to feed viscous solutions because of the low ...

  6. Friedel's salt - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friedel's_salt

    Friedel's salt plays a main role in the binding and retention of chloride anions in cement and concrete. However, Friedel's salt remains a poorly understood phase in the CaO–Al 2 O 3 –CaCl 2 –H 2 O system. A sufficient understanding of the Friedel's salt system is essential to correctly model the reactive transport of chloride ions in ...

  7. Thermal energy storage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_energy_storage

    It is more economical by achieving 100% more heat storage per unit volume over the dual tanks system as the molten-salt storage tank is costly due to its complicated construction. Phase Change Material (PCMs) are also used in molten-salt energy storage, [ 16 ] while research on obtaining shape-stabilized PCMs using high porosity matrices is ...

  8. Nafion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nafion

    This form of Nafion, referred to as the neutral or salt form, is finally converted to the acid form containing the sulfonic acid (-SO 3 H) groups. Nafion can be dispersed into solution by heating in aqueous alcohol at 250 °C in an autoclave for subsequent casting into thin films or use as polymeric binder in electrodes.

  9. Osmoregulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmoregulation

    Osmoregulation is the active regulation of the osmotic pressure of an organism's body fluids, detected by osmoreceptors, to maintain the homeostasis of the organism's water content; that is, it maintains the fluid balance and the concentration of electrolytes (salts in solution which in this case is represented by body fluid) to keep the body fluids from becoming too diluted or concentrated.
