Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAN IN-HOUSE COMPUTER-BASED DATA ACQUISITION AND CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ANAEROBIC FERMENTATION PROCESSESE. A. Echiegu, A. E. GhalyA computer-based Data Acquisition and Control System (DACS) capable of monitoring the temperature, pH and gas production as well as maintaining a pre-determined temperature profile and feeding regime in anaerobic reactors was developed and tested. The hardware for the DACS was a series-based system consisting of a host processor which drives three modules-a digital input mode (MODULE 255), an analog … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Nov 2014 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesKINETIC MODELLING OF CONTINUOUS-MIX ANAEROBIC REACTORS OPERATING UNDER DIURNALLY CYCLIC TEMPERATURE ENVIRONMENTE. A. Echiegu, A. E. GhalyA two-culture dynamic model which incorporated the effects of diurnally cyclic temperature was developed and used to predict the dynamic response of anaerobic reactors operated on dairy manure under two diurnally cyclic temperature ranges of 20-40°C and 15-25°C which represent the summer and winter in Nigeria. The digesters were operated at various hydraulic retention times and solid concentrations and some … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 29 Aug 2014 · 7,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesA HIGH B1 FIELD HOMOGENEITY GENERATION USING FREE ELEMENT ELLIPTICAL FOUR-COIL SYSTEMSidi M. Ahmed Ghaly, Sulaiman S. Al-SowayanDesign and testing of a prototype probe with high B1 magnetic field homogeneity that can be used for MRI is presented. It consists of four coaxial separately tuned rings of wire in a symmetric arrangement on an ellipsoidal surface. Compared to Helmholtz pair, which presents 2nd-order homogeneity, an improvement in field homogeneity is achieved, while preserving the simplicity of implementation. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Jan 2014 · 7,025 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDevelopment and Evaluation of a Low-Density Biomass Feeding System for Fluidized Bed GasifiersA. E. Ghaly, A. Ergudenler, S. Alsuhaibani, V. V. RamakrishnanFor efficient operation of a biomass gasifier, the biomass material must be fed continuously to the system. A feeding system for chopped straw and rice husk was designed, constructed and evaluated. It consisted of: a frame, a hopper, an auger, two agitators, a drive system and a power unit. Initial testing showed that wheat straw and rice husk, being highly … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 7 Nov 2013 · 8,045 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNitrification of Urea and Assimilation of Nitrate in Saturated Soils Under Aerobic ConditionsV. V. Ramakrishnan, A. E. GhalyThe aim of this study was to investigate nitrification activity of urea and the assimilation of nitrate in a well aerated soil using perfusion technique with addition of glucose as an energy and carbon source. In this study, urea was rapidly nitrified by the bacteria in the saturated soil but its course of transformation to NO3 was not linear. There … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 6 Nov 2013 · 8,417 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDetermination of the Exergy of Four Wheat StrawsYaning Zhang, A. E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiExergy is a measurement of how far a certain material deviates from a state of equilibrium with the environment. It is a useful tool for improving the efficiency of energy-resource use. The exergy values of four wheat straws (Absolvant, Max, Monopol and Vuka) were determined in this study. The effects of physical and chemical properties (moisture content, ash content, LHV … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,494 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesEffectiveness of Photocatalytic Decolourization of Reactive Red 120 Dye in Textile Effluent Using UV/H2O2Rishi Ananthashankar, Abdel GhalyThe effectiveness of Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) for degradation of reactive red 120 dye in aqueous solutions was tested in this present study. Ten different concentrations of the reactive red 120 dye were exposed to UV alone and a combination of UV with two different concentrations (10 ml/L and 20 ml/L) of H2O2 for 10 different retention times at the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,413 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesPhotocatalytic Decolourization of Textile Effluent Containing Reactive Red 120 Dye With UV/TiO2Rishi Ananthashankar, Abdel GhalyThe efficiency of degradation of an aqueous solution of reactive red 120 dye using Advanced Oxidation Process (AOP) was evaluated. A low pressure UV lamp and a combination of UV/TiO2 were tested using ten different dye concentrations (50 - 500 mg/L) at several retention times (5.2-60 min) a pH of 10.5. The effect of acidic pH (pH = 3) on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2013 · 8,357 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesComprehensive Investigation into the Exergy Values of Six Rice HusksYaning Zhang, A.E. Ghaly, Bingxi LiExergy is a measurement of how far a certain system or material deviates from a state of equilibrium with the environment and it is a useful tool for improving the efficiency of energy-resource use. Based on the previous work, the exergy values of six rice husks were investigated in this study. The effects of physical and chemical properties were also … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 10 Jun 2013 · 7,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesDrying Poultry Manure for Pollution Potential Reduction and Production of Organic FertilizerA. E. Ghaly, M. AlhattabDisposal and storage of raw poultry manure has become an environmental problem because of the associated air, water and soil pollution. Poultry manure begins to decompose immediately after excretion giving off ammonia which, in high concentrations, can have adverse effects on the health and productivity of birds as well as the health of the farm workers. Application to land is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Mar 2013 · 9,731 accessesView PDFCite
