  1. 1. Techno-Economic Analysis of Dye Separation in Textile Recycling

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Teknisk vattenresurslära

    Author : David Lundberg; [2024]
    Keywords : Dye; Membrane filtration; Electrocoagulation; Techno-economic analysis; Pre-feasibility study; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This study determines the technical and economic feasibility of separating dye from a process filtrate in industrial textile recycling using electrocoagulation or sequences of membrane filtration with microfiltration, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration and reverse osmosis. The lower requirements for treating this stream, compared to previously researched dyehouse effluents, left treatments not good enough for dyehouses viable for this process filtrate. READ MORE

  2. 2. Recovery of Dialcohol Cellulose using Micro- and Ultrafiltration Processes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Lina Näslund; Gabriella Petersson; [2023]
    Keywords : Membrane filtration; Ultrafiltration; Microfiltration; Dialcohol cellulose; DAC; Bioplastics; Chemical engineering; Process design; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The waste management and production of plastic play a concerning part in global warming and continues to have a negative effect on the environment. A promising strategy to address this challenge is to develop new sustainable materials, to replace current fossil-based plastics. READ MORE

  3. 3. Concentration of Proteins and Decrease of Salt Content in a Hydrolyzed Fermentation Broth Using Membrane Filtration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Linnea Sjökvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Membrane filtration; ultrafiltration; PHA; polyhydroxyalkanoates; chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Membrane filtration was used to concentrate proteins and decrease the salt concentration in a hydrolyzed fermentation broth. The broth was a by-product from the bacterial production and extraction of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA), that can be used to produce biobased plastics. READ MORE

  4. 4. Investigation of flux dependence on viscosity in ultrafiltration

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

    Author : Peter Bourghardt; [2023]
    Keywords : ultrafiltration; viscosity; molasess; konjac glucomannan; comsol; LabStak M39; membrane; filtration; chemical engineering; Chemistry;

    Abstract : This project aims to compare the effect of viscosity on flux for high viscosity liquids. The performance of two different viscous solutions was studied in a plate-and-frame membrane module. READ MORE

  5. 5. Evaluation of The Viral Reduction Potential using Ultrafiltration Membranes in the Drinking Water Treatment Process at Norrvatten

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Emma Eriksson; [2023]
    Keywords : Microbiological barrier; Ultrafiltration; NanoCeram filter; Drinking Water; Raw Water; Mikrobiologisk barriär; Ultrafiltering; NanoCeram filter; Dricksvatten; Råvatten;

    Abstract : En pilotanläggning för ultrafiltering testas nu i Norrvattens reningsprocess för att undersöka ifall den kan användas som en tredje mikrobiologisk barriär i reningsprocessen. Målet med detta projekt är att testa membranets kapacitet att filtrera bort viruspartiklar men även membranet generella reduktionsförmåga för andra mikrobiologiska och kemiska kontamineringar.
