Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Energy Aspects of Apple Drying in the Hot-Air and Infrared DryersSeyed Hashem Samadi, Issa LoghmaniehDrying is an energy-intensive process. In general, heating and evaporation require large quantities of energy. This study has been conducted to evaluate analysis for dying apple slices in two drying systems including hot-air convection and infrared drying. The apple samples were dried at temperatures of 90, 120 and 150°C and radiation intensity of 0.22, 0.31 and 0.49 W/cm2 in the … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 26 Aug 2013 · 8,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE PROPERTIES OF NUCLEAR MATTERKhaled Hassaneen, Hesham MansourThe microscopic and bulk properties of nuclear matter at zero and finite temperatures are studied in the frame of the Brueckner theory. The results for the symmetry energy are also obtained using different potentials. The calculations are based on realistic nucleon-nucleon interactions which reproduce the nucleon-nucleon phase shifts. These microscopic approaches are supplemented by a density-dependent contact interaction to achieve … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 17 Jul 2013 · 7,235 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Use of Silver Vine (Actinidia Polygama Maxim, Family Actinidiaceae) as an Enrichment Aid for Felines: Issues and ProspectsCharles I. Abramson, Angela Lay, Timothy J. Bowser, Christopher A. VarnonProblem statement: This study highlights the potential of using silver vine as an enrichment additive for felines. Approach: A literature review was conducted on the use of silver vine since 1973. The articles were categorized into studies concerned with behavior, biological effects, beneficial uses, plant and chemical studies. Results: We found surprisingly few studies that utilized silver vine. There were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 10 Mar 2012 · 18,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Eco friendly Refrigerants Usage in Air-ConditionerC. Chinnaraj, R. Vijayan, P. GovindarajanProblem statement: There are two types of global warming contributions through refrigeration and air conditioning systems. The first one is the Direct Global Warming Potential (DGWP) due to the emission of refrigerants and their interaction with heat radiation. The second one is the Indirect Global Warming Potential (IDGWP) due to the emission of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) by consuming the energy … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 27 Dec 2011 · 8,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation-Properties Relation of Mn-Cu Hopcalite CatalystArdita Mele, Ilo Mele, Altin MeleProblem statement: The Mn-Cu hopcalite catalyst was used for the conversion of CO to CO2 at low temperatures. It was the catalyst of choice in the gas masks for respiratory protection in mines, aircrafts, military, spatial laboratories. Approach: The efficiency of hopcalite catalyst depends on its surface parameters. Its surface characteristics can be influenced from the chosen way of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Dec 2011 · 7,895 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Simulation of DENV RNA-Dependent RNA-Polymerase with Potential Inhibitor of Disulfide Cyclic PeptideUsman Sumo Friend Tambunan, Raima Syahidah Noors, Arli Aditya Parikesit et al.Problem statement: Our researches have proposed two ligands of disulfide cyclic polypeptide, which are CDEEC and CDGSC as potential inhibitor of DENV RNA-dependent RNApolymerase by molecular docking. Approach: Methodological approach was conducted to determine the best ligand to act as inhibitor. Molecular docking simulation was conducted without a solvent in which enzyme was made rigid and ligand was left free … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 Sep 2011 · 8,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiodegradation of Phenolic Compounds in Creosote Treated Wood Waste by a Composting Microbial Culture Augmented with the Fungus Thermoascus aurantiacusAbdel E. Ghaly, Bopeng Zhang, Deepika DaveProblem statement: Creosote is used as a wood preservative and water proof agent in railway sleepers, utility poles, buildings foundations and fences and garden furniture. It is a mixture of over 300 hydrocarbons which include 75% polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, 2-17% phenolic compounds and 10-18% heterocyclic organic compounds. Exposure to creosote may result in several health problems including damage to kidney, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 Aug 2011 · 9,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Evaporation in Degrading the "Oil Lakes"Al Rashed Ahamad, Colin BarkerProblem statement: Oil Spills are degraded by aerobic bacteria, water washing, evaporation and oxidation. In the absence of water the first two of these processes cannot operate. This is the situation in the low rainfall environment of the Kuwaiti desert where oil lakes still persist 20 years after the initial spills. The oils contain longer chain n-alkanes but have lost … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Diffusion Coefficient using Reversed-Flow Gas Chromatography-A ReviewKhalisanni Khalid, Rashid Atta Khan, Sharifuddin Mohd. ZainProblem statement: Since the earliest publication on the technique, Reversed-Flow Gas Chromatography (RF-GC) has been used to determine physicochemical properties by measuring the value of one in the presence of another. The method is precise, accurate and simple compared to other conventional techniques. Approach: The experimental setup consists of a small modification of a commercial gas chromatograph, so that it … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,227 accessesView PDFCite
