Literature data measured by the author have been processed to report on the effect of solute structure on gas liquid partition coefficients of eleven normal, branched and cyclic alkanes ranging in carbon number from five to nine in sixty nine low molecular weight liquids. The alkane solutes are n-pentane(p), n-hexane(hx), n-heptane(hp), n-octane(o), n-nonane(n), 2-methylpentane(mp), 2,5-dimethylpentane(dp), 2,5-dimethylhexane(dh), 2,3,4-trimethylpentane(tp), cyclohexane(ch), and ethylcyclohexane(ec). The solvent set encompasses most of those studied by Rohrschneider as well as three homologous series of solvents (n-alkanes, 1-alcohols and 1-nitriles) and several perfluorinated alkanes and highly fluorinated alcohols. An excellent linear relationship was observed between lnK and the carbon number of n-alkanes. The effective carbon numbers of branched and cyclic alkanes were determined in a similar fashion to the method of Kovats index. We found that the logarithm of solute vapor pressure multiplied by solute molar volume was a perfect descriptor for the linear relationship with the median effective carbon number.

Pressure-assisted forward osmosis (PAFO) process has recently been under spotlight for its potential to improve forward osmosis (FO) process performance by applying low hydraulic pressure on the feed side. Structure parameter, one of the governing factors in estimating water flux and solute flux across FO membranes in the solution-diffusion model (S-D model), determines solute resistivity in FO and PAFO processes. This study aims to estimate the trend of structure parameter change with respect to varying additional hydraulic pressure condition in PAFO.

Adsorption characteristics of chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, and crystal violet were investigated in single-and bi-solute systems. Single-solute adsorption for each solute was well described by Freundlich equation. Severe inhibition was recorded in bi-solute adsorption systems despite of low solute concentration of less than 1 mg/l. Inhibition of chloroform adsorption by carbon tetrachloride, similar compound in chemical structure, was much higher than by crystal violet of which chemical structure is quite different. Highest inhibition was observed at crystal violet adsorption by chloroform. While, inhibition caused by each other was almost equal between chloroform and carbon tetrachloride. Bi-solute adsorption was well described by Friz-Schl${\ddot{u}}$nder model and by much simpler 3 parameter Freundlich equation.

Bunker C fuel oil may be taken as a conc. solution of asphalt as a solute. It may be assumpt that there will be unalogical relationship between cone. solution and solute in regological behavior. Investigation was carried out to fiud out the -opitimum preheating temperature. The following results were obtained: the colloidal structure bunker C fuel oil undergoes a transition at around the softening point of the solute asphalt: and the flow charactor changes from non-Newtonian flow to Newtonian as well as its activation energy is memarkably reduced at around softening point of the solute asphalt for the purpose of the improvement of flow charater of Bunker C fuel oil, the preheating must be done above the softening point of a solute asphalt.

A rotating magnetic field (RMF) was applied in the solidification process of Cu-8Fe alloy. Focus on the mechanism of RMF on the solid solution Fe(Cu) atoms in Cu-8Fe alloy, the influences of RMF on solidification structure, solute distribution, and material properties were discussed. Results show that the solidification behavior of Cu-Fe alloy have influenced through the change of temperature and solute fields in the presence of an applied RMF. The Fe dendrites were refined and transformed to rosettes or spherical grains under forced convection. The solute distribution in Cu-rich phase and Fe-rich phase were changed because of the variation of the supercooling degree and the solidification rate. Further, the variation in solute distribution was impacted the strengthening mechanism and conductive mechanism of the material.

Studies of selectivity of hydrogen bond formation in chiral solute-solvent systems have been performed by $^1H\;and\;^{13}C$ nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. These data are correlated with the results of gas chromatographic investigations of the same systems. Interactions between the optically active solvent(N-(N-benzoyl-L-amino acid)-anilide) and optically active solute (N-trifluoroacetyl -L-alanyl isopropyl ester) were examined. NMR evidence indicated that hydrogen bonding interaction occurred between two N-H portion and on peptidyl carbonyl portion in stationary phase and solute molecule on three points. The association constants of solvent-solute interaction were calculated and the structure of the diastereomeric association complex between N-(N-benzoyl-L-valyl)-anilide and N-TFA-L-alanyl isopropyl ester was proposed.

The fluctuation integrals which give useful information in the structure of solution are associated with the mixed direct correlation integral ($C_{12}$) known. Using its weighted arithmetic mean of $C_{11}$ and $C_{22}$ and the activity coefficient model, the fluctuation integrals on solute-solute, solvent-solute, and solvent-solvent can be calculated in the function of mole fraction. In this work, several binary mixtures containing c-hexane were tested and the results on the fluctuation integrals were rather good.

An organic citrate series draw solute was synthesized using diethyl malonate for forward osmosis. The structure of the final compound potassium pentane-1,3,3,5-tetracarboxylate was confirmed by $^1H-NMR$ and $^{13}C-NMR$ analysis. Osmotic pressure, solubility, water permeability and reverse salt flux were measured for the properties of the draw solute. Forward osmosis results showed that the draw solute exhibited higher water flux than other draw solutes of trisodium citrate and tripotassium citrate. Reverse salt flux of all the organic daw solutes was much lower than that of NaCl. The osmotic pressure of the synthesized draw solute was 25% lower than that of NaCl. The solubility of the draw solute was 317 g/ 100 g water, which is 8.8 times higher than that of NaCl. A commercialized nanofiltration membrane was used for the recovery of the draw solute. The draw solute could be effectively recovered at low pressure.

Choline chloride-glycerol (1:2 mol), a natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) is examined as a draw solution in forward osmosis (FO) for dewatering application. The NADES is easy to prepare, low in toxicity and environmentally benign. A polyamide thin film composite membrane was used. Characterization of the membrane confirmed porous membrane structure with good hydrophilicity and a low structural parameter (722 ㎛) suitable for FO application. A dilute solution of 20% (v/v) NADES was enough to generate moderate water flux (14.98 L m^-2h^-1) with relatively low reverse solute flux (0.125 g m^-2h^-1) with deionized water feed. Application in dewatering industrial wastewater feed showed reasonably good water flux (11.9 L m^-2h^-1) which could be maintained by controlling the external concentration polarization and fouling/scaling mitigation via simple periodic deionized water wash. In another application, clarified sugarcane juice could be successfully concentrated. Recovery of the draw solute was accomplished easily by chilling utilizing thermo responsive phase transition property of NADES. This study established that low concentration NADES can be a viable alternative as a draw solute for dewatering of wastewater and other heat sensitive applications along with a simple recovery process.

Fundamental ideas of the free energy gradient method are briefly reviewed with three applications: the stable structures of glycine and ammonia-water molecule pair in aqueous solution and the transition state (TS) structure of a Menshutkin reaction $NH_3 + CH_3Cl → CH_3NH_3^+ + Cl^-$ in aqueous solution, which is the first example of full TS optimization of all internal degrees of freedom.
