'by decantation' is a perfectly correct and usable phrase in written English.
It is used to refer to a process in which a liquid is separated from a solid using a container with a narrow neck, such as a beaker or funnel. For example: "The powdered sugar was separated from the liquid by decantation."
The solvent was removed by decantation and dried to yield 2.93 g of product.
Separation and recycling can also be easily done by decantation of the n-heptane layer after reaction.
Crystalline riboflavin is isolated from the fermentation broth and purified to the specifications effective for the various product qualities by decantation, acidic washings, and recrystallization.
The technology consisted of the under-hot-water maceration followed by decantation and the double-screw-press to separate the most labile pools of carbon from the ballast organic matter.
NWs are then separated by decantation of the reaction solution.
The solids were filtered out first by decantation and then filtered by using glass filter.
The carefully designed solubility of ILs allowed a homogeneous DODH reaction to produce muconate 3 in excellent yields, a key intermediate for 1. Use of the IL also enabled an efficient separation of the DODH product 3 from the reaction mixture by simple decantation.
The obtained bare magnetic nanoparticles (bare MNPs) were isolated from the solvent by magnetic decantation.
The precipitate was washed with DW by magnetic decantation until the pH of the suspension was less than 7.5.
At this point, the solution was cooled at room temperature with an ice bath, and the solid was separated by magnetic decantation and washed several times with distilled water.
For example, Wang et al. introduced the superparamagnetic γ-Fe2O3 beads-CdSe@ZnS quantum dots NPs prepared by thiol metal bonds conjunction, and their average diameter of this luminescent/magnetic nanocomposite was ca. 20 nm, and it exhibited high emission quantum yield and, was easily separated from solution by magnetic decantation using a permanent magnet.
