Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHospital Wastewater Treatment Using an Integrated Anaerobic Aerobic Fixed Film BioreactorA. Rezaee, M. Ansari, A. Khavanin et al.The design and operation of wastewater treatment systems for hospital is a challenge for wastewater engineers. In this study, a pilot-scale system integrated anaerobic-aerobic fixed film reactor for hospital wastewater treatment was constructed and its performance was evaluated. The aim of the study was the elimination of organic compounds and a significant reduction of bacteria. The system had been operated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Absorption Coefficients and Thermal Diffusivity of Modulated Doped GaAlAs/GaAs Heterostructure by Photothermal Deflection SpectroscopyS. Aloulou, M. Fathallah, M. Oueslati, A. SfaxiWe report in this study theoretical and experimental studies of photothermal deflection spectroscopy (PDS) for planar doped heterostructures AlGaAs/GaAs. The PDS spectra at T=300K are recorded by varying the wavelength of the excited radiation for different modulation frequencies. They show two different regions related to the fundamental electronic transitions from GaAs and Si doped AlGaAs. The DX levels have been … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhotocurrent and Photoluminescence Investigations of GaInNAs and GaInNAs(Sb) Quantum Wells Grown by Molecular Beam EpitaxyS. Ben Bouzid, F. Bousbih, A Hamdouni et al.We have investigated photocurrent (PC) and photoluminescence (PL) in sequentially grown GaInNAs/GaAs and GaInNAs(Sb)/GaAsSbN quantum wells. Photocurrent transitions are analyzed by theoretical calculations using envelope function formalism taking into account the strain effect and the strong coupling between nitrogen localized state and the GaInAs band gap. The results are consistent with a type I band alignment and a conduction band … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,475 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPressure-sensitivity Effects on Toughness Measurements of Compact Tension Specimens for Strain-hardening SolidsAbdulhamid A. Al-AbduljabbarThe path-independent J-integral is used as a fracture prediction criterion for loading beyond the elastic limit as Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) cannot be applied. While J was originally defined from an energy perspective, it was demonstrated that it could be inferred from load-displacement diagrams. Therefore, the Compact Tension (CT) specimen testing is used to compute J for materials. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,657 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConservation of “Partial Vorticity” with Application on Hydraulic JumpsHarald NaeserIn two preceding works, the idea of partial conservation theorems was introduced and conservation equations for partial energy and partial angular momentum were established. A similar conservation theorem for partial vorticity of incompressible fluids is established here. The vorticity vector is divided into two elements (both denoted “partial vorticity”) and their conservation equations established separately. They show that, in addition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 6,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferent Methods for Pion-nucleus Optical PotentialS. A.E. Khallaf, A. A. IbrahimElastic and inelastic cross-sections for pion scattering on 12C at pion kinetic energy ranging from 50 to 260 MeV are computed using three independent methods of π± -nucleus optical potential, the 3α-particle model of the nucleus, the equivalent local Kisslinger potential and the Laplacian one. Reasonable fits to the measured values are obtained for 12C without adjusting free parameters. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisplacement of Boron from the Silicon Crystal Nodes by Interstitial Si Atoms During Implantation and AnnealingM. Jadan, A. R. Chelyadinskii, V. Y. YavidThe process of boron displacement from the nodes into interstitial positions of interstitial Si atoms in silicon (Watkins effect) on the conditions of implantation and annealing has been investigated with the help of X-ray diffraction and electrical methods. It was revealed that the efficiency of the Watkins substitution is determined by the ion current density (level of ionization). With increasing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Industrial Development Policies, Plans and Programs of Strategic Environmental Assessment in the Industrial Sector of IranJ. Nouri, B. Maghsoudlou KamaliThe present investigation deals with the quality of capacity building and institutional strengthening of Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) in the industrial sector as well as determining the environmental strategies for industrial sustainable development in Iran. The leading aim of this paper has been to systematize the environmental considerations in industrial development strategies, policies, plans and programs in the highest strategic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBinding of the scutellarin to albumin using tryptophan fluorescence quenching, CD and FT-IR spectraJianniao Tian, Jiaqin Liu, Zhide Hu, Xingguo ChenThe binding of scutellarin with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated at three temperatures, 296k, 310K, and 318K, by the fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) at pH 7.40. The binding parameters were determined by Stern-Volmer equation. The thermodynamic parameters were calculated according to the dependence of enthalpy change on the temperature as follows:ΔH0 and ΔS0 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 13,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethyltert-butyl Ether (MTBE) Degradation by a Microbial ConsortiumS. B. Mortazavi, A. Nikpey, A. Rezaee et al.Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is added to reformulated gasoline to meet the 1990 Clean Air Act directives. Widespread use of MTBE in gasoline has resulted in groundwater contamination. Because of its undesirable effects on drinking water and ecologically harmful effects, MTBE removal has become a public health and environmental concern. In this study, we have isolated a mixed bacterial culture … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
