Abstract
An effective oil separating technique from water-oil mixture can be used in various industrial fields such as environmental purification and resource recycling. In this study, a vitreous carbon (VC) grid structure was fabricated by carbonization of digital light processing (DLP) 3D (3-dimensional) printed parts, and its oil separation performance was evaluated. A planner DVC grid structure with pore sizes of ∼200, ∼430 and ∼520 µm was fabricated and its water-oil separation performance werewas evaluated. Despite theoretical calculations suggesting adequate water repelling pressures for pores around ∼300 and ∼360 µm, actual performance fell short due to defects from 3D printing and carbonization processes. A more robust design approach involves fabricating a cuboid shell-shaped VC grid structure with smaller pores (∼150 µm), demonstrating continuous water-oil separation capabilities.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the Journal of Mechanical Science and Technology is to provide an international forum for the publication and dissemination of original work that contributes to the understanding of the main and related disciplines of mechanical engineering, either empirical or theoretical. The Journal covers the whole spectrum of mechanical engineering, which includes, but is not limited to, Materials and Design Engineering, Production Engineering and Fusion Technology, Dynamics, Vibration and Control, Thermal Engineering and Fluids Engineering.
Manuscripts may fall into several categories including full articles, solicited reviews or commentary, and unsolicited reviews or commentary related to the core of mechanical engineering.
