Fermentation coupled with pervaporation : a kinetic study
(North-West University, 2011)Ethanol production through biomass fermentation is one of the major technologies available to produce liquid fuel from renewable energy sources. A major problem associated with the production of ethanol through fermentation ... -
Fractionation of an acidic hydrolysate from steam-treated wood using pervaporation
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2017)In this study, commercially available pervaporation membranes were evaluated for the recovery of organic acids and furfural from an acidic hydrolysate stream from steam treated wood. Membranes that did not comply with the ... -
Recuperation of H2SO4 in the hybrid sulphur process using pervaporation
(North-West University, 2012)In this experimental study the sorption and pervaporation characteristics of commercial Nafion–117 and Nafion–212 membranes with mixtures of water (H2O) and sulfuric acid (H2SO4) were investigated. During experimentation ... -
Separation by pervaporation of methanol from tertiary amyl methyl ether using a polymeric membrane
(Potchefstroom University for Christian Higher Education, 2003)In this study, the sorption and pervaporation characteristics of the commercial PERVAP2256® membrane with methanol and tert-amyt methyl ether (TAME) mixtures were investigated. The feed concentration and the feed temperature ...
