In the production process of titanium dioxide with sulfuric acid, the contamination of the titanium sulfate solution (the ilmenite leaching solution) in the Fe3+ reduction stage by iron scraps is a practical problem because it is difficult to guarantee the quality of the iron scraps. In this research, a new method, called the ion-exchange membrane primary cell method, for reduction of Fe3+ in the titanium sulfate solution has been advanced. The positive compartment of the primary cell consists of lead (copper) electrode and the titanium sulfate solution, and the negative compartment consists of iron electrode and acidic FeSO4 solution. The anion ion-exchange membrane is used as the diaphragm between two compartments. Fe3+ in the titanium sulfate solution is reduced by the electric discharge of the primary cell. The effects of temperature, stirring strength of the solution and membrane area on the reduction rate have been investigated. The experimental result shows that the optimum current density can be higher than 100 A/m2.
concentrating sulfuric acid by membrane distillation in a flat-sheet direct-contact membrane distillation device with a self-made metal-PTFE composite membrane has been studied. The effect of sulfuric acid concentration of feed, the flowrate and liquor temperature in high-temperature side and low-temperature side on the flux and separation efficiency is investigated. The stability of this composite membrane is also inspected. The experimental results show that the metal-PTFE composite membrane can be used in membrane distillation, and its properties are very stable. It is feasible to concentrate sulfuric acid by membrane distillation with this membrane.
Concentrating sulfuric acid solution by vacuum membrane distillation with flat PEFE membrane is explored. The effects of sulfuric acid concentration, temperature of the feed, the vacuum degree of the vacuum side on the flux of membrane distillation and the separation efficiency of acid are investigated. The results illustrate that the flux of the membrane distillation increases with the rise of feed temperature and the vacuum degree of the vacuum side, but it decreases with the rise of the sulfuric acid concentration of the feed. The separation efficiency of acid is correlated with the flux of membrane distillation; the separation efficiency of the acid can amount to 100% in the process, when operative conditions are properly controlled. It can also been obtained from the experiment that, compared with other methods of membrane distillation, the vacuum membrane distillation can obtain greater distillation flux.
In the process of sulfuric acid production from pyrite, there is a lot of waste acid produced in fume washing with dilute acid. Acid recovery from this sort of waste sulfuric acid by diffusion dialysis is studied in the paper. The mass transfer dialysis coefficient of sulfuric acid of the membrane AFX is measured, the effect of the flowrate of the feed and ratio of feed to water is investigated, and the two kinds of membrane (AFX and S203) are compared. The results show that diffusion dialysis process can separate the metal cation from sulfuric acid effectively, but it is difficult to separate non-cation impurities as As− and F−. The contrast tests of the two membranes show that the dialysis mass transfer coefficient of the membrane AFX is larger, while capacity of the removing impurities of membrane S203 is somewhat better.

Redefines the mean Cook distance under the contaminated error model. With the help of the mean Cook distance, the paper discusses the relationship between local influence of small perturbations and high leverage case. A new robust method for the adjustment of geodetic networks is proposed. The suggested method, a generalization of the robust method with the minimum mean Cook distance, is more efficient than the others. The basic feature of the method is that the equivalent weight functions of the robust estimates are determined according to the principle of statistics.

Preheated mixtures and the decrease of W powder size can accelerate the formation of (W, Ti) C powders.

The doping reaction of polyaniline with camphor sulfonic acid (CSAH) in different organic solvents was studied by UV-Vis spectroscopy. The experimental results show that the polaron band of the species was shifted to shorter wavelength when polyaniline was doped with CSAH in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidione (NMP) solvent, while the red shift of polaron band was observed when it was in N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF). It indicates that the influence of different processing solvents on the doping property of polyaniline is greatly different. N-methyl-2-pyrrolidione is a good solvent for polyaniline, polyaniline chain is unfolded in it. The interaction of NMP with CSAH is so strong that the resulting product is apt to dedoping, while the solubility of polyaniline in DMF is relatively low and polyaniline chain is in partly folded state. Thus the doping reaction is kinetically disadvantageous but thermodynamically advantageous.
