Osmosis
After our papers on seed storage were rejected several times, we found that our design approach for seed storage warehouses was different from published works on the theory of osmosis. We had several warehouses installed around the country. All installations are still working. They are maintaining temperature and relative humidity at design conditions. Either the …. Read More
Water Purification
Water Purification Osmosis, the simple experiment of a column of wine capped at the bottom with a membrane from a pig’s bladder and immersed into a vessel of pure water has intrigued many for 200 years. Although Priest Nollett expected that the column of wine would force flow downward through the membrane into the water, …. Read More
Reverse Osmosis
REVERSE OSMOSIS The Osmosis experiment has intrigued many people for years. Water flowed uphill through a membrane into wine. Water flow stops when a high pressure (osmotic pressure) is applied to the wine. Further increases in pressure on the wine will cause pure water to flow from the wine to the water. This is known ….
