Treatment of Cu-CMP Waste Streams Containing Copper(II) using Polyethyleneimine (PEI)Maketon, Worawan January 2007 (has links)
The semiconductor industry has been growing at a fast pace in the last several decades and this growth is expected to continue in the future. One process that is repeated several times in a microchip fabrication is the Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP). CMP is a critical process that must be employed after the metal deposition step to eliminate any topography over which the next layer must be processed. Today, copper interconnect is widely used. In addition to possess a high resistance to electro migration effects and low electrical resistivity, copper techniques require fewer (approximately 25%) processing steps. CMP and post-CMP cleaning processes are projected to account for 50 percent of the water consumed by fabrication's ultra pure water. While there are a variety of treatment schemes currently available for the removal of heavy metals from CMP wastewater streams, many introduce additional chemicals to the process, have large space requirement, or are not effective. Polyethyleneimine (PEI) is well known to use in the ion metal affinity chromatography (IMAC) due to the great metal ion binding abilities. While work has been conducted on the use of PEI on membrane filtration for binding metals from industrial wastewaters, the experiments performed in this research are novel with respect to the waste (Cu CMP) treated as well as the method of packed bed column treatment. This research focused primarily on the study of an alternative technique to remove both metal ions and metal-chelated complexes from Cu CMP wastewater streams. Not only copper, wastewater often contains chelating agents, surfactant, organic compounds, and inhibitors. Thus, most of the time copper ions form complexes with chelating agents, which made typical ion exchange resins ineffective. The work, then, explored the effect of components typically found in Cu CMP waste streams on the binding of copper ions to PEI. The competitive binding of copper between PEI and other complexing agents were also investigated. A secondary focus of this study was to fully develop and characterize the column performance and behavior. This includes the understanding of the chemistry of CMP waste characterization. This treatment technique using a PEI packed bed column showed great copper binding capacity. The column is capable of removing Cu CMP waste streams, which contain both copper ions and copper complexes, due to the unique ability of PEI that can play both cation and anion exchanger roles. This waste treatment technique is feasible for the semiconductor industry as large volumes of copper contaminated solutions from actual waste can be concentrated twelve-fold for metal recovery using hydrochloric acid. The adsorbent can be regenerated more than hundred of times with changing in the performance and the reproducibility.

Complexing of Sugars and Polyhydroxy Alcohols with Molybdenum (VI)Kiang, Su Chin 01 May 1962 (has links)
Molybdenum is very important in the life processes of both plants and animals. It acts as a catalyst in promoting and controlling many biological reactions in living cells, but exactly what it does and how it functions are not well understood. In the past because of the obvious complexity of the reactions concerned and the extremely minute quantities of molybdenum involved, its presence was long undetected. Lately, molybdenum has drawn special attention on account of its effects on metabolic processes, particularly of plants. In this regard, molybdenum has been shown to be present in four enzymes: nitrate reductase (JJ), xanthine oxidase (39), aldehyde oxidase (28), and hydrogenase (41).

Self-healing properties of mortar with crystalline admixture: experimental investigation and parameter optimizationLiu, B., Liang, Y., Jiang, J., Shi, J., Yalçınkaya, Ç., Ashour, Ashraf 26 July 2024 (has links)
Yes / The inclusion of crystalline admixture (CA) is a highly effective method for enhancing the self-repairing capabilities of mortar. This study examined the complexing abilities of different complexing agents under varying temperatures, pH levels, and ion species in order to select effective complexing agents for diverse environments, as complexing agents play a crucial role in CAs. After determining the type of complexing agent, an orthogonal array design was used to optimize the components of CA, and the strengthening mechanism of CA for mortar was discussed through microstructure analysis. The results showed that the complexation behavior of triethanolamine (TEA) and glycine performed better than sodium citrate (SC) for different pH, temperatures, and ion species. Meanwhile, TEA and glycine showed complementarity at different stages, so TEA and glycine were used as complexing agents in this study. Based on the orthogonal experiment, the optimal contents of Na2SiO3, Na2CO3, TEA, glycine, Ca(COOH)2, and nano-SiO2 in CA were determined to be 1.0%, 1.0%, 0.04%, 1.0%, 0.5%, and 1.0%, respectively. Under the synergistic effect of TEA and glycine, the hydration of aluminate and ferrialuminate was accelerated, and the hydration degree of cement paste was increased. At 28 d, the contents of CaCO3, C-S-H gel, and ettringite of cement paste with CA were higher than these of plain paste, but its Ca(OH)2 content was lower. Although the Ca(OH)2 content in the cement paste with CA was lower, the Ca(OH)2 crystal structure filled in the pores was larger. Therefore, the mortar mixed with CA exhibited higher compressive strength, water impermeability, and self-healing ability. / The full-text of this article will be released for public view at the end of the publisher embargo on 3 May 2025.

Synthèse et évaluation de complexants aqueux pour la séparation américium/curium / Synthesis and evaluation of aqueous complexing agents for the americium/curium separationChapron, Simon 21 November 2014 (has links)
Le combustible nucléaire usé, après avoir été débarrassé de l'uranium, du plutonium et potentiellement du neptunium par le procédé PUREX, est encore constitué d'environ la moitié des éléments du tableau périodique. Au sein de ceux-ci, l'américium est majoritairement responsable des émissions thermiques à long terme des colis de déchets. En le recyclant, la compacité des sites de stockage pourrait être significativement améliorée. Le procédé d'extraction liquide-liquide EXAm, dont l'étape clé est la séparation Am/Cm, a donc été développé afin de séparer l'Am seul. Pour ce faire, un mélange d'extractants est utilisé conjointement au TEDGA (N,N',N,N'-tétraéthyl-diglycolamide), un complexant aqueux. Ce dernier permet en effet d'améliorer la séparation Am/Cm en maintenant préférentiellement le curium en phase aqueuse, mais sa relation structure sélectivité est encore mal comprise. Ces travaux de thèse concernent donc la synthèse et l'évaluation d'analogues structuraux du TEDGA afin de mieux comprendre l'influence de sa structure sur la sélectivité Am/Cm dans le procédé EXAm. Durant cette étude, 14 analogues du TEDGA ont été synthétisés et 17 molécules ont été évaluées en extraction liquide-liquide. Plusieurs modifications structurales ont été étudiées : la longueur et l'encombrement stérique des chaines alkyle portées par les azotes, la taille de l'espaceur, ainsi que l'utilisation d'amides secondaires. Ainsi, ces travaux ont montré qu'à partir des chaines tétrabutyle, il n'est plus possible de maintenir les molécules en phase aqueuse et que l'ajout d'encombrement stérique sur les chaines alkyles ou la modification de la balance hydrophilie/lipophilie diminue systématiquement la sélectivité des ligands. L'introduction d'amides secondaires (-CONHR) donne des ligands extractibles par le solvant (formation de liaison hydrogène avec les extractants) ce qui les rend inutilisables dans le procédé EXAm. Quant à l'espaceur, il joue un rôle prépondérant sur la sélectivité : le raccourcir (malonamides) entraine la disparition du caractère complexant de la molécule à forte acidité, et l'allonger entraine une préférence du ligand pour l'Am au lieu du Cm (inversion de sélectivité). L'ensemble de l'étude met en lumière la particularité de la sélectivité apportée par le TEDGA face aux autres diglycolamides ainsi que la difficulté d'améliorer le procédé en utilisant cette famille de molécules. Néanmoins la meilleure compréhension de sa chimie a permis d'affiner sa modélisation dans le procédé et l'étude de sa relation structure sélectivité montre qu'une amélioration de la sélectivité des ligands pourrait encore être envisagée en rigidifiant l'espaceur. / After the reprocessing of uranium, plutonium and eventually neptunium by the PUREX process, the spent fuel is still composed of half of the periodic table. Among these elements, the main responsible for the heat of the wastes is americium. Its reprocessing could allow improving the compactness of deep geological storage of the wastes. Thus the liquid-liquid extraction process called EXAm was developed in order to recover the americium alone. The key step of the process is the Am/Cm separation. An extractant mixture is used with an aqueous complexing agent: TEDGA (N,N',N,N'-tetraethyl-diglycolamide). It allows to enhance the Am/Cm separation by keeping preferentially curium in the aqueous phase, but its structure selectivity relationship is not well known yet. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to synthesize and evaluate some structural analogues of TEDGA, in order to better understand the impact of its structure on the Am/Cm selectivity in the EXAm process.During this study, 14 analogues of TEDGA were synthesized and 17 molecules were evaluated in liquid-liquid extraction. Several structural modifications were studied: length and steric hindrance of the N-alkyl chains, size of the spacer, and the introduction of secondary amide functions. This work shows that it is not possible to maintain the ligand in the aqueous phase from tetrabutyl derivatives, and the addition of steric hindrance, or modification of hydrophilicity/lipophilicity balance, systematically decreases the selectivity of ligands. The addition of secondary amide functions (-CONHR) makes the molecules extractible by the solvent (formation of hydrogen bonds with the extractants), therefore they are unsuitable to be used in the EXAm process. The spacer has the main impact on the selectivity: the complexation capacity in high acid medium disappears when it is shortened (malonamide), whereas the ligand has a preference for Am instead of Cm (inversion of selectivity) when it is lengthen (TEDOODA and TETOUDA derivatives).This whole study shows the peculiar selectivity given by the TEDGA in comparison with other diglycolamides, and the difficulties to enhance the process using this family of ligands. Nevertheless, a better understanding of its chemistry has allowed to define more clearly its modeling in the process and the studying of its structure/selectivity relationship has shown that the enhancing of the ligands selectivity probably requires spacer preorganization.

A corpus-based study of conjunctive explicitation in Arabic translated and non-translated texts written by the same translators/authorsFattah, Ashraf January 2010 (has links)
This study investigates clause complexing and conjunctive explicitation in a speciallycompiled corpus consisting of two sets of Arabic translations and comparable non-translatedArabic texts both produced by the same translators/authors in the domainsof history and philosophy. Focusing on certain types of conjunctive markers, thisstudy seeks to find lexico-grammatical evidence of one of the translation-specificfeatures, i.e. features typical of translated language, in these selected target texts,using both parallel and comparable corpora.Adopting a Systemic Functional approach for analyzing logico-semantic relationsbetween clauses, clause complexes and sequences in Arabic, the study examinessome causal and concessive conjunctions and conjunctive Adjuncts in Arabictranslated and non-translated texts, and contrasts these with their English counterpartswith a view to identifying recurrent patterns or trends of 'explicitation', one of thefeatures that are arguably typical of translated texts.Baker (1996) suggests a number of translation-specific features, which manifestthemselves in translated texts on lexical and syntactic levels, and seem to be typicalof translated language in general. Evidence of one such posited feature, namelyexplicitation, is sought in the selected translators' handling of structural and textualconjunctive expressions in the English source texts. Thus, the primary aim of thepresent study is twofold: to examine from a systemic functional perspectivedifferences in the patterns of instantiation of clause complexing and conjunctiverelations in English source texts, their Arabic translations and Arabic non-translationsauthored by the same translators; and to investigate whether, and to what extent, thesedifferences are attributable to explicitation as a translation-specific feature.The originality of this study stems first from its focus on Arabic, thus addressing aconspicuous gap in corpus-based research on translation-specific features, which hasso far been largely confined to Indo-European languages. Secondly, being theorydriven,and specifically embedded in a systemic functional framework, the conceptionof explicitation adopted in this study constitutes a departure from the taxonomicapproach characteristic of a large body of literature on explicitation, which is neitherinformed nor motivated by a coherent theoretical framework, with the result that itoften engenders a flat model of description and classification, with vague overlappingcategories. Confirming the findings of earlier studies on explicitation, this study hasrevealed a tendency of explicitation features to cluster in various metafunctionalenvironments, with the overall effect of reducing vagueness or complexity, avoidingambiguity, and enhancing comprehensibility through enhanced conjunctivecohesiveness, reinforcement, expanded simplification or unpacking of complexconstructions.

Développement d’une méthode de criblage de molécules chélatantes de l’uranium : applications à l’extraction sélective de U(VI) en milieu sulfurique / Development of a method for screening uranyl chelates : applications for selective extraction of U(VI) in sulfuric mediaPasquier, Sacha 18 December 2013 (has links)
La recherche de molécules ayant une affinité spécifique pour un métal est à la base de nombreux procédés de récupération sélective. C’est le cas pour l’uranium extrait de site minier, et isolé à la suite de plusieurs étapes dont une extraction par solvant à partir d’un jus concentré d’acide sulfurique. Pour corriger certains inconvénients du procédé d’extraction actuel, le potentiel de nouvelles molécules chélatantes de l’uranium doit être déterminé. Ceci est possible par l’utilisation d’une méthode de criblage servant à comparer rapidement un grand nombre de molécules. A ce jour, aucune méthode n’existe pour tester efficacement le pouvoir complexant et la sélectivité de molécules vis-à-vis de l’uranium en milieux très acides. La méthode de criblage proposée dans ce travail est basée sur le suivi colorimétrique et spectrophotométrique de la réaction de compétition entre un complexe chromophore de référence Arsénazo III-UO₂²⁺ avec des ligands compétiteurs. Plusieurs ligands issus de 4 familles (hydrazides, di-hydrazones et (mono, bis)-phosphonates) ont été criblés. Ces tests, réalisés en mélange monophasique MeOH/H₂SO₄, ont permis de déterminer un ordre d’affinité des di-hydrazones selon la fonctionnalisation du « squelette di-hydrazones ». L’effet de substituants sur la coordination avec l’ion UO₂²⁺ a pu être reproduit par des calculs de modélisation moléculaire. D’autre part, une approche indépendante par spectrométrie de masse à ionisation électrospray a permis de retrouver cet ordre d’affinité et d’évaluer la sélectivité vis-à-vis du fer(III), élément souvent présent quantitativement dans les jus traités. La méthode de criblage, appliquée à des bis-phosphonates (en milieu aqueux H₂SO₄) déjà étudiés pour la décorporation de l’uranium en conditions biologiques, a mis en évidence des affinités remarquables, dont certaines inattendues. Ces résultats ont permis de montrer des relations entre les structures des molécules bis-phosphonates et leur efficacité de complexation. Avec cette nouvelle méthode de recherche, validée sur quelques familles moléculaires, de nouvelles pistes peuvent être envisagées pour le choix du design moléculaire, ou l’utilisation de molécules dans des procédés d’extraction innovants. / The search of molecules with a specific affinity for a metal is at the basis of many processes for selective recovery. This is the case for uranium that is extracted from mines, and isolated as a result of several steps among which a solvent extraction step from a concentrated juice of sulfuric acid. To overcome some drawbacks of the current extraction process, new chelating molecules of uranium must be determined. This is possible by using a screening method to quickly compare a large number of molecules. To date, there is no method to effectively test the complexing power and selectivity of molecules for uranium in highly acidic media. The screening method proposed in this work is based on ligand displacement reactions observed by UV-visible from the Arsenazo III-UO₂²⁺ reference complex where Arsenazo III is a chromogenic molecule displaying a strong affinity for uranium. Several ligands out of four molecular families (hydrazides, dihydrazones and (mono, bis)-phosphonates) were screened. These tests - carried out in monophasic MeOH/H₂SO₄ mixtures - provided an affinity order of di hydrazones related to the nature of functionalization of the "di-hydrazone skeleton". The effect of substituents on coordination with the UO₂²⁺ ion could be reproduced by DFT calculations (Density Functional Theory). Moreover, an independent approach by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry permitted to corroborate the affinity order and to evaluate the U(VI)/Fe(III) selectivity, as iron(III) is often found quantitatively in juices. The screening method applied to bis-phosphonate ligands (in H₂SO₄ aqueous medium), already studied for the in vivo removal of uranium in biological conditions, showed very strong uranophiles while some of them were unexpected. These results highlight relationships between the bis phosphonate structures and their complexation efficiency. With this new method of search, validated on some molecular families, new trails can be considered for the selection of molecular design or the use of innovative molecules in extraction processes.
