Haya Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) if i burn organic matters in a closed system, it produces carbon dioxide, water steam, a lot of heat, and other minor gases. my question is : how to separate these gases from each other ? i have heard about an electronic device used for this mission according to densities differences. what is this technique called ?and i need a good,easy-to-understand book about it. thanks in advance...

Sensei Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) if i burn organic matters in a closed system, it produces carbon dioxide, water steam, a lot of heat, and other minor gases. my question is : how to separate these gases from each other ?Water steam you could condense using f.e. Graham condenser https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condenser_(laboratory) Carbon Dioxide gas you could pass through solution of Sodium Hydroxide, and get Sodium Carbonate and Sodium Bicarbonate. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_bicarbonate Edited September 30, 2016 by Sensei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cuthber Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Do you mean something like this?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumas_method or something like this?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_chromatography Or this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion_analysis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haya Posted October 1, 2016 Author Share Posted October 1, 2016 thank you so much but this is not what i need to know, what i need is : there is a cheap electronic device separates gases according to their different densities, what is this method/technique called ? what are good,easy-to-understand books talk about it?

John Cuthber Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Separating gases by density is very difficult. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_centrifuge What are you trying to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haya Posted October 2, 2016 Author Share Posted October 2, 2016 Separating gases by density is very difficult. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_centrifuge What are you trying to do? i am trying to separate these gases to benefit from each one of them, but when is searched about gases separation techniques and i found them expensive and complex and i lately heard about an electronic device does this mission according to densities differences , it is fairly cheap and simple and i need to read more about is : what is this method/technique called ?what good books talk about them?
