HEAT AND MASS TRANSFER. Material and Energy Balances. Silica gel is to be used to separate a mixture of butane and butylene. The feed containing 55% butane and 45% butylene is fed at the bottom of the column. The silica gel is introduced at the top and travels from top to bottom. The adsorbed gases (the product) are stripped from the silica gel.

MASS BALANCE OF SILICA IN STRAW FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SILICA REDUCTION IN STRAW PULP Celil Atik, Saim Ates Abstract The high silica content of wheat straw is an important limiting factor for straw pulping. High silica content complicates processing and black liquor recovery, wears out factory installations, and lowers paper quality.

The goals of this study were to measure the quantity of high solubility soil silica available for plant uptake (plant-available silica, or PAS, operationally defined using a chemical extraction method); estimate gains and losses (mass balance) of PAS; and identify forms of PAS in soils. We used a coupled chemical extraction-spectrometry technique to measure PAS levels in soils. Gains and ...
