Separation of hypohalous acids from aqueous solutions thereof containing halide ions.

摘要

A process for the separation of a hypohalous acid from an aqueous solution of a hypohalous acid containing halide ions by contacting the aqueous solution of the hypohalous acid containing halide ions with a first face of a porous membrane of a hydrophobic material and contacting an aqueous liquid with a second face of the membrane. The hypohalous acid is preferably hypochlorous acid and the aqueous liquid is preferably sodium hydroxide. <IMAGE>
