Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Fatty Acid Profile in Some Macroalgae in Relation to the Environmental Conditions for Biodiesel ProductionNayrah Abdel Naby Shaltout, Nihal Galal Shams El-DinIn this study, fatty acids profile was determined in four algal species; namely Ulva fasciata (Chlorophyta), Corallina mediterranea, Corallina officinalis and Pterocladiella capillacea (Rhodophyta) which were collected from two sites (Abu-Qir Bay and Eastern Harbor) located on the Egyptian Mediterranean Sea during the four seasons in the period (2011-2012). In addition, nutrient content in the algal species (total nitrogen and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 14 Dec 2015 · 7,334 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGaussian Dispersion Model to Estimate the Dispersion of Particulate Matters (Pm2.5) and Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Concentrations on Tribal Land, OklahomaDejene Alemayehu, Francine HackettAir quality in most parts of Kay County is good and unlikely to cause major health problems. However, Kaw Nation wants to know if the concentration of Particulate matters (PM2.5) and Sulfur dioxide (SO2) released from power plants, refinery and carbon black plant in Oklahoma reaches the Tribal land at Kanza Travel Plaza, Braman, Kay Co. Oklahoma. Kanza Travel Plaza … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 8 Dec 2015 · 7,964 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINCREASING ANAEROBIC DIGESTION PERFORMANCE OF WASTEWATER WITH CO-DIGESTION USING DECANTER CAKEThaniya Kaosol, Narumol SohgrathokLow biogas production in the frozen seafood wastewater anaerobic digestion is observed due to the low organic and Total Solids (TS) contents in the wastewater. In this research the decanter cake will be used in the anaerobic co-digestion process to improve the biogas production rate. The effect of co-digestion and Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) will be investigated using the continuously … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 22 Sep 2014 · 7,359 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGaseous Emissions and Combustion Efficiency Analysis of Hydrogen-Diesel Dual Fuel Engine under Fuel-Lean ConditionPrateep Chaisermtawan, Sompop Jarungthammachote, Sathaporn Chuepeng, Thanya KiatiwatExhaust gas emissions from diesel engine combustion using alternative fuel may change in their quantities that can affect exhaust gas after-treatment devices and environmental ambient. This study presents theoretical analysis of combustion generated emissions and efficiency of hydrogen-diesel duel fuel in fuel-lean condition. A chemical equilibrium method by minimizing Gibbs free energy is employed to estimate exhaust gas products from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 1 Sep 2012 · 7,509 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis and Components Irreversiblities of a (25 MW) Gas Turbine Power Plant Modeled with a Spray CoolerFidelis Ibiang Abam, Ikpi U. Ugot, Dodeye Ina IgbongIn this study the effect of inlet air cooling system and components irreversibilities on the performance of an active 25MW gas turbine power plant was investigated. The objective of this study was to establish the potential benefits of improving the performance of the current gas turbine plant into a more advanced cycle with high efficiency and power output through inlet … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 24 Feb 2012 · 9,379 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHot Resistance Estimation for Dry Type Transformer Using Multiple Variable Regression, Multiple Polynomial Regression and Soft Computing TechniquesM. Srinivasan, A. KrishnanProblem statement: This study presents a novel method for the determination of average winding temperature rise of transformers under its predetermined field operating conditions. Rise in the winding temperature was determined from the estimated values of winding resistance during the heat run test conducted as per IEC standard. Approach: The estimation of hot resistance was modeled using Multiple Variable Regression … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 22 Dec 2011 · 7,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Consortia from Taptapani Hot Water Springs for Mining Effluent TreatmentPoonam Nasipuri, Gauri G. Pandit, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriProblem statement: Soluble sulfate load in effluent is a crucial problem from mining industries. The study involved isolation of efficient Sulfate Reducing Bacterial (SRB) consortium from hot water spring for bioremediatrion of sulfate contaminated waste water. Approach: The enriched bacterial consortium was isolated in medium DSMZ 16695. The sulfate reduction efficiency was measured by turbidometric method. The Km and Rmax … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 May 2011 · 8,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Emissions from Power Stations on the Ambient Air Quality of Selected Urban Areas in KuwaitBader N. Al-Azmi, V. Nassehi, A.R. KhanIn Kuwait, two main power stations, one comprising of seven-300MW steam generators at Doha and other with eight-300MW steam generators at Subyia cover the major power requirement of Kuwait city. These stations used different types of fuel oil as the prime source of energy that has different sulpher contents (S%). Comprehensive emission inventories for year the 2001 were used to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of an Optimal Fuzzy Logic Controller Using Genetic AlgorithmS. Khan, S. F. Abdulazeez, L. W. Adetunji et al.All control systems suffer from problems related to undesirable overshoot, longer settling times and vibrations while going form one state to another state. Most of relevant techniques had been in the form of suggesting modification and improvement in the instrumentation or interfacing part of the control system and the results reported, remain suffering from shortcomings related to hardware parameter dependence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 8,049 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) Concentration Levels from the Mina Al-Fahal Refinery in Oman Using Artificial Neural NetworksSabah A. Abdul-Wahab, Saleh M. Al-AlawiIn this investigation, two Artificial Neural Network (ANN) models were applied for predicting ground-level sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the Sultanate of Oman in order to provide an early warning advisory for the protection of public health.
