摘要提案编号：9729849提案类型：研究者发起首席研究员：Anthony H. skelland所属机构：佐治亚理工学院该基金通过化学与运输系统部界面、传输与分离项目的分离与净化项目子项目授予。首席研究员是乔治亚理工学院的Anthony Skelland博士。该研究旨在开发具有高稳定性且不影响渗透特性的液体膜。聚合添加剂的掺入将膜转化为非牛顿形式是该研究的中心假设。液体膜在化学物质的选择性提取方面具有重要的连续分离潜力。不幸的是，由于与膜相稳定性相关的问题，该系统存在缺陷。目前的研究直接解决了运输率保持的稳定性问题。该项目涉及废水中有毒污染物的提取以及精细化学品和制药工业感兴趣的化合物的选择性提取。

AbstractProposal No: 9729849 Proposal Type: Investigator Initiated Principal Investigator: Anthony H. SkellandAffiliation: Georgia Institute of TechnologyThis grant is awarded through the Separations and Purification Program sub-element of the Interfacial, Transport and Separations Program of the Chemical and Transport Systems Division. The principal investigator is Dr. Anthony Skelland at the Georgia Institute of Technology. The research is directed towards the development of liquid membranes that exhibit a high level of stability without compromising permeability characteristics. The incorporation of polymeric additives to convert the membrane to non-Newtonian form is the central hypothesis of the research.Liquid membranes have a significant potential for continuous separations relating to the selective extraction of chemical species. Unfortunately, the system is flawed by problems associated with the stability of the membrane phase. The current research directly addresses the problem of stability with retention of transport rates. The project has relevance to the extraction of toxic contaminants in wastewater and to the selective extraction of compounds of interest to the fine chemicals and pharmaceutical industries.
