Numerical studies have been conducted to predict the solid-liquid separation efficiency of turbulent flow in a hydrocyclone using a commercial CFD code. To validate the CFD code, several preliminary numerical calculations are carried out to determine the influence of parameters such as grid systems, numerical schemes, and turbulence models. The numerical studies have been performed on the hydrocyclones with the different vortex finder geometries by changing the mass flow rate, and the results were compared with the experimental data. The results show that the CFD code can be used as a design tool to improve the performance of hydrocyclones.

In the present study the effect of cooling rate during solidification on the microstructural characteristics of Al-xAg (x = 31, 33, 35 at.%) in-situ binary eutectic composites has been investigated. To provide a wide range of cooling rate three different casting techniques, i.e. conventional casting, injection casting, and melt spinning have been used. The observed microstructure is very much dependent on the cooling rate. The fcc ${\alpha}$-Al and hcp $Ag_2Al$ phases exhibits an orientation of (111)Al//(0001)$Ag_2Al$, [1-10]Al//[11- 20]$Ag_2Al$. The microstructure of the melt-spun samples contains Widmanstatten structure resulting from solid-state transformation and nano scale two-phase structure resulting from solid-state phase separation. The microstructure of injection-cast samples contains eutectic structure and solid state phase-separated structure. On the other hand, conventional-cast samples exhibit a microstructure consisted of plate-type eutectic structure.

Vanadium slags is a kind of vanadiferous solid waste from steelmaking process. It not only occupies land, pollutes environment, but also leads to waste of resources. Based on the difference of magnetic susceptibility of different particles caused by their chemical and physical properties from vanadium slag, a new technology, superconducting high gradient magnetic separation was investigated for separation and extraction of valuable substances from vanadium slag. The magnetic concentrate was obtained under optimal parameters, i.e., a particle size -200 mesh, a magnetic flux density of 0.8 T, a slurry concentration of 5 g/L, an amount of steel wools of 25 g and a slurry flow velocity of 2 L/min. The content of $Fe_2O_3$ in concentrate could be increased from 39.6% to 55.0% and $V_2O_5$ from 2.5% to 4.0%, respectively. The recovery rate is up to 42.9%, and the vanadium slag has been effectively reused.

A bench-scale submerged-type membrane filtration system (SMFS) was constructed to study a feasibility of membrane filtration for solid-liquid separation in water and wastewater treatment processes. In the case of applying the SMFS to a biological wastewater treatment process, so-called membrane bioreactor, aeration underneath membrane modules is usually employed in order to provide oxygen demand for microbial growth as well as to control membrane fouling. A study was investigated the effects of operation parameters by aeration intensity, feed concentration, foulant type and airlift pore size on critical flux. Critical flux tends to increase with aeration rate. Optimal aeration flow rate was found to be 10 L/min/module. Feed concentration and foulant type has a significant effect on membrane fouling and filtration performance. But downward position and pore size of airlift has no a significant effects on membrane fouling and filtration performance.

In this work, caffeine and some catechin compounds such as +C, EGC and EGCG were extracted from green tea using quercetin molecular imprinted polymers in solid-phase extraction. For synthesis of MIP, quercetin as the templates, MAA as the monomer, EGDMA as the crosslinker and AIBN as the initiator were used. For extraction of caffeine and catechin compounds from green tea, the solid-phase extractions of a load followed by wash and elution procedures were done with water, methanol and methanol:acetic acid=90:10 (vol.%) as the solvents, respectively. HPLC analysis (C18 column, 5 μm, 250×4.6 mm) with the mobile phase of methanol:water=40:60 (vol.%) at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min was adopted for the quantitative determination. By solid-phase extraction, the resolutions of caffeine and some catechin compounds from green tea were increased. The quercetin-MIP had higher selectivity to +C compounds.

An effective technique of sludge separation is required for concentrated activated sludge process. The dissolved-air flotation (DAF) has been shown to be efficient process for sludge separation. The factors affecting DAF process for activated sludge separation are type and concentration of sludge, air/solid ratio, ratio of pressurized water flow, pressure, sludge detention time, temperature, sludge and hydraulic loading rate, recycle flow rate of sludge and type and quantity of chemical aid. In order to study the optimal operation condition for sludge separation, the influence factors such as type and concentration of sludge, ratio of pressurized water flow and pressure are investigated by the batch and continuous reactor experiments of DAF and sedimentation test. By the experimental investigation, the results are as follows; 1. For the bulking and concentrated sludge, DAF is more effective than sedimentation for the sludge separation. 2. In DAF, the critical ratio of pressurized water flow exist. The critical value varies with the pressure in the tank. That is, according to the pressure changes from 3 to $5kg/cm^2$, the critical value varies from 0.25 to 0.67 accordingly. 3. Pressure affects the ratio of pressurized water flow, but it does not show any influence upon the DAF efficiency directly. 4. Continuous experimental results was not better than those of batch.
