Microchannel extraction of Te⁴⁺ from a stream of CdTe via MIBK in supported liquid membrane

Creator:

Liburdy, Heather Johnson

Abstract:

A new technique is developed to recover elemental tellurium (Te) from cadmium telluride (CdTe) which is abundantly available in photovoltaic semiconductor waste. The method is based on microchannel fluid flow with the use of a supported liquid membrane (SLM) between the donor (feed) and acceptor (strip) channels. A predictive theoretical...

Extending the applicability of implicit Monte Carlo Diffusion : frequency dependence and variance reduction using the difference formulation

Creator:

Cleveland, Mathew A.

Abstract:

The intent of this work is to extend Implicit Monte Carlo Diffusion (IMD)[Gen. 2001] to account for frequency dependence and to incorporate the difference formulation[Szo. 2005] as a source manipulation variance reduction technique. This work shows the derivation of the probabilities and the associated proofs which govern the frequency dependent...
