Washing of Brine From Ice Crystals (open access)

Washing of Brine From Ice Crystals

Report presenting experimental results for the washing of brine from beds of small plastic and glass beads, and from beds of ice particles prepared by partial freezing of brine. The data are analyzed in terms of a longitudinal-dispersion model which describes the blending of water and brine at the moving wash-water "front".

The Koppers Hydrate Process for Saline Water Conversion Experimental and Engineering Studies (open access)

The Koppers Hydrate Process for Saline Water Conversion Experimental and Engineering Studies

Report covering the research and development work on the Koppers Hydrate Process as a means of desalting sea water. The process is a chemical one, in which a hydrating agent, such as propane or dichlorodifluoromethane, and water combine to form insoluble crystals. Most of the work was carried out in bench-scale equipment or laboratory research.
