By : James W Zubrick Email: j.zubrick@hvcc.edu This is, as you may have guessed, chromatography carried out on a column of adsorbent, rather than a layer. Not only is it cheap, easy, and carried out at room temperature but you can separate large amounts, gram quantities, of mixtures. In column chromatography, the adsorbent is […]
By : James W Zubrick Email: j.zubrick@hvcc.edu Dry-column chromatography is another approach to the separation of large quantities of a mixture of products. I think it’s easier than wet-column chromatography, though more limited. 1. Weigh about 80 g of the adsorbant (alumina, silica gel, etc.) for a typical 15 X %-in. column, into either […]
