The promise of solvent sublation
Article Abstract:
New or improved technologies for waste removal, recovery and recycling clearly need to be developed by the chemical process industries to comply with increasingly stringent environmental regulations. In the area of wastewater treatment, a hybrid liquid/liquid extraction technology called solvent sublation has been developed that may be a potential alternative for wastewater treatment. It is a nonfoaming, adsorptive bubble process combining the transport mechanisms found in liquid/liquid extraction and air stripping.

Identify appropriate water reclamation technologies
Article Abstract:
Waste reduction is one of the most formidable challenges confronting chemical process industry (CPI) companies. Water is one of the CPI's major waste products, and it would be a monumental achievement in overall waste reduction if the industry could somehow find a method to reclaim wastewater. A suggested systematic approach to water re-use is presented that involves understanding, evaluating, comparing and selecting suitable water reclamation technologies.
