Sea Water Demineralization by Means of an Osmotic Membrane

LOEB, SIDNEY, SOURIRAJAN, SRINIVASA·1963·Advances in Chemistry

Abstract

An osmotic membrane has been developed for demineralizing saline brines such as sea water. The major attractions of the process from an economic standpoint are its simplicity and relatively low energy consumption. The membrane is capable of producing a flux of 5 to 11 gallons of 0.05% NaCl water per sq. foot per day from a brine containing 5.25% NaCl, under a pressure of 1500 to 2000 p.s.i.g. The membrane is fabricated from a casting solution of cellulose acetate and acetone, to which is added an aqueous magnesium perchlorate solution. Key operations in the membrane fabrication process include immersion of the membrane in ice water within a prescribed period after casting, and subsequent heating of the membrane.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
