The dependences of pervaporation characteristics on coplymer composition,feed concentration and operating temperature have been studied.In order to improve the separation properties of the copolymeric membranes,the membranes were hydrolyzed with 10 wt% soldium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide aqueous solution.The hydrolyzed membranes containing more than 0.069MA mol fraction showed higher tensile strength and separation properties than the original membranes.展开更多

The total pressure of the correspondent data is 101.3 kPa. All models parameters are also identified. The study suggests that NRTL model fits the equilibrium data best with RMS = 0.4 %.展开更多

The PEGvlation of hirudin, the most promising anticoagulant drug, was performed in this paper. The optimal reaction conditions for PEG ylated hirudin were investigated, wh.en the PEGylation react, on.wasconducted under 4℃ after 10h, in the borate buffer at pH 8.5 .with the molar ratio 230 : 1 of PEG to hirudin, a higher modification extent was achieved. Finally, the bioactivity of PEGylated hirudin was measured in vitro.Compared with unmodified hirudin, 26% of anti-thrombin activity was retained.展开更多

This is done by analysis of the process through modelling and simulation. In literature, reported PCC models with a mixture of IL and MEA solvent were developed using equilibrium-based mass transfer approach. In contrast, the model in this study is developed using rate-based mass transfer approach in Aspen Plus. From the results, the mixed aqueous solvent with 5-30 wt% IL and 30 wt% MEA showed 7%-9% and 12%-27% less specific regeneration energy and solvent circulation rate respectively compared to commonly used 30 wt% MEA solvent. It is concluded that the |L concentration (wt%) in the solvent blend have significant impact on specific regeneration energy and solvent circulation rate. This study is a starting point for further research on technical and economic analysis of PCC process with aqueous blend of IL and MEA as solvent.展开更多
