Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Development through Waste Heat RecoveryP. S. Bundela, Vivek ChawlaProblem statement: Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) steam Technology is a proven Technology pioneered by Japanese for cement plant and it is economically viable. Electrical Power can be generated by adopting the latest technology in this field. It used a medium to low temperature (120-350°C) Turbine technology (standard thermal power plants run on steam temp-500°C). Approach: It requires treat exchangers (Hx) … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Mini Review: Cholera Outbreak via ShellfishR. Suzita, A. S. Abdulamir, Fatimah Abu Bakar, R. SonProblem statement: Food borne illness occurs all over the world. Vibrio cholerae is the etiological agent of cholera which is spread by contaminated food, water or direct fecal contact with food handlers. There are also examples of sporadic outbreaks of illness attributed to raw products eaten unprocessed. Consequently, there was a widespread concern that food in international trade carries pathogenic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImprovement on the Design of a Cabinet Grain DryerAdzimah K. Stephen, Seckley EmmanuelProblem statement: Grains are routinely seen dumped in villages and major cities during the peak of harvest. Therefore it is necessary that these grains are properly dried and stored to ensure availability and wholesomeness throughout the year. Advancements have taken place in the practice of drying since the first world war. Manufacturing methods have greatly improved production rate and the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,720 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Flow Structures of Circular Pulsating Air JetRozli Zulkifli, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Shahrir Abdullah, Mohd Sobri TakriffProblem Statement: Applications of impingement jets in industry for heating and cooling purposes requires a high convective heat transfer coefficient. Numerous studies have been conducted to improve the convective heat transfer coefficient for a steady impinging jet. A pulsating jet has a very high potential in replacing steady jet after it been found able to increase the heat transfer coefficients … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Performance of Uncoated Tungsten Carbide Insert in End Milling Titanium Alloy Ti-6Al 4V through Work Piece PreheatingL. Turnad Ginta, Mohd Amri Lajis, A.K.M. Nurul AminProblem statement: Titanium alloys have been used widely in the aerospace, chemical and petroleum industry because of their high specific strength, fracture resistance and superior resistance to corrosion. Titanium alloys have a very high strength-to-weight ratio making them very suitable for aircraft engines and airframe manufacture. Approach: The use of titanium alloys as engine component materials is due to their … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Fracture Toughness of the Concrete Mortars Exposed to Elevated TemperaturesS. Djaknoun, A. Ahmed Benyahia, E. OuedraogoThe main objective of this research was the characterisation of the fracture toughness of concrete mortars exposed to high temperatures by using notched specimens in three point bending tests. The specimens have different lengths and were heated at different temperatures ranging from room temperature up to 900°C. The experimental test results obtained are closed with those reported by the literature, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Molecular Chaperone, Alpha-Crystallin, on the Heat-Induced Aggregation of Beta-lactoglobulinArezou GhahghaeiAggregation of beta-lactoglobulin occurs mainly via intermolecular disulphide bond exchange. Upon heating, beta-lactoglobulin aggregated which increased with increasing pH. The presence of DTT led to more rapid aggregation and precipitation of beta-lactoglobulin. Alpha-Crystallin prevented the aggregation of heat-stressed beta-lactoglobulin and was a more efficient chaperone at higher pH values. In the presence of DTT, however, alpha-crystallin was a less efficient … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDensity Equation of Bio-Coal Briquettes and Quantity of Maize Cob in Phitsanulok, ThailandPatomsok WilaiponOne of the most important crops in Phitsanulok, a province in Northern Thailand, is maize. Base on the calculation, the quantity of maize cob produced in this region was approximately 220 kton year-1. The net heating value of maize cob was found to be 14.2 MJ kg-1. Therefore, the total energy over 874 TJ year-1 can be obtained from this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,891 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Energy Storage in the Ground of a Greenhouse by the Polypropylene Capillary Heat ExchangerM. Lazâar, S. Koôli, M. Hazami et al.The problem of temperature inversion is one of solar origin principal problems about which the cultures under shelters complain. Indeed, for the winter period, the temperature under greenhouse is very low at night and it is rather high during the day in summer. Consequently, the heating of the greenhouses is essential. In this work, we studied the advisability of using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContinuous Production of Lime Juice by Vacuum Freeze DryingWasan Theansuwan, Kitichai Triratanasirichai, Kiatfa TangchaichitAn experimental dryer was developed to determine the characteristics of lime juice powder that produced from freeze-drying processes on continuous production. The experimental process consists of two processes, freezing process (the air blast freezer type) and freeze-drying process (tray method with heating plate type). NaHCO3 (2% by weight of lime juice) was dissolved in lime juice as solid aid. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,179 accessesView PDFCite
