The data includes the membrane properties and specifications used for multi-configuration membrane distillation desalination. In this study, membranes from CLARCOR, 3M, and Aquastill are tested in counter-current, co-current and air-gap configurations at Colorado School of Mines (CSM), Advanced Water technology Center ( Aqwatech) laboratories.

In the data sheets: The "theoretical" worksheet, contains steady-state values of the experimental runs and also provides several calculated values. The "Specifications" worksheet contains the inputs to the experiment. The "Data" spreadsheet contains the entire set of data and the rest of the sheets "20-40", "20-45", ...etc., contain individual portions of the data with variation of feed temperatures.

The shale oil analyzed in this report and designated as Parry Shale Oil was produced by the Parry retort at Golden, Colorado in a test run made January 16-18, 1945. The shale used was a rich mahogany shale, from Parachute Creek area, Colorado, which has heavy-caking characteristics. A Fischer assay on this material gave an oil yield of 19.5 percent which is equivalent to 50.6 gallons per ton.

"Oil fields in the Powder River Basin of Wyoming have produced 731 million barrels of petroleum through 1959. Production in 1959 was 32 million barrels, the highest production since 1924 . The record production was in 1923, when the Basin produced 38 million barrels of oil and the Salt Creek field, then at its peak , produced 35 million barrels. In this report, the characteristics of crude oils found in the Basin are used as a basis for determining the best refining uses for the oils and for predicting the characteristics of oils that may be discovered in the Basin in the future. Analyses of 108 oils sampled over a period of 30 years are presented."

Human habitation of space hinges on the creation of a safe and healthy environment to support life. Water, along with oxygen and food, is a critical life sustaining factor. Shipping of water from earth for extended space missions is impossible because of the unwieldy nature of transport, both in terms of costs and logistics involved. Thus recycling and reclamation is the only way to ensure that every drop of water counts. MMI will develop a photocatalytic capillary membrane distillation system for the reclamation of water from urine and other forms of impure water that are produced by human life in space. When installed in a spacecraft/space station, this will reduce or eliminate the need to transport water from earth. The incorporation of the photocatalytic unit to decompose the organic impurities in water will prevent fouling of the capillary membrane, thus enabling long term use of the reclamation unit during space travel.

The global distilled spirits market is anticipated to exhibit a healthy CAGR of XX% over the forecast period of 2023-2033, reaching a valuation of XXX million by 2033. The market expansion is driven by rising disposable income, growing urbanization, and evolving consumer preferences towards premium spirits. Additionally, the increasing popularity of cocktails and craft spirits has contributed to the market growth. Leading companies in the market include Remy Cointreau, Constellation Brands, Diageo, Brown-Forman Corporation, and Pernod Ricard. Key trends in the market include the rising popularity of flavored spirits, increasing demand for artisanal products, and the growth of e-commerce platforms for spirit sales. Spirits are segmented based on application and type. Key applications include social events, home consumption, and restaurants. Types of spirits include whiskey, vodka, brandy, and rum. In terms of geographical distribution, the market is segmented into North America, South America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and the Asia Pacific. The Asia Pacific region is expected to witness the fastest growth due to the presence of populous countries like China and India and a growing youth population with disposable income. North America is another significant market, driven by high levels of disposable income and a large consumer base.

A new nonlinear optimization control strategy is developed for multivariable control of an ill-conditioned, high-purity distillation column. A high-gain directional effect resulting from the ill-conditioned nature of the system causes difficulty in controllability and requires a higher performance control system. The developed optimal controller applies a minimization of energy consumption as the optimal objective function to treat the ill-conditioning effect, while wavelet neural network input/output linearizing constraints force the outputs to reach the desired set points. In this paper, ethylene dichloride purification is used as a case study. The process dynamics are evaluated based on relevant thermodynamic properties in Aspen Plus Dynamics and are controlled by the proposed controller in the MATLAB/Simulink platform. Control performances are investigated in this cosimulation environment for set point tracking and regulatory problems. The simulation results demonstrate that robust tracking is attained, while compensation of the input disturbances is effectively improved compared with a model predictive controller.

This project aims to develop an innovative Geothermal ThermoElectric Generation (G-TEG) system specially designed to both generate electricity and extract high-value lithium (Li) from low-temperature geothermal brines. The process combined five modular technologies including silica removal, nanofiltration (NF), membrane distillation (MD), Mn-oxide sorbent for Li recovery, and TEG. This project provides a proof of concept for each of these technologies.

This is the final report from the project. It includes corrections and the final data. The final report supersedes all previous submissions.
