EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFuel Crisis vis-à-vis Green FuelSusmita KamilaThe real sense of crisis often leads to bring some changes for betterment of society. We are in an age, where every day we are facing the crisis of energy. Decisions on current energy as well as fuel crisis in right direction can bring about a better, more sustainable future for our planet. We have huge opportunities and scope for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 4 Mar 2019 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMars Could have Enough Molecular Oxygen to Support LifeRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuThere is a recently introduced study that proposes the idea of the possibility of salty water somewhere on the surface of the planet Mars or immediately near the surface but in the basement of the planet at a relatively small depth. The study illustrates the possibility of O2 oxygen dissolved in salt water, oxygen needed to support breathing oxygen, microbes … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2019 · 7,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Planning and Design of an Environmentally Friendly Hybrid Energy System for Rural Electrification in IraqAli Saleh Aziz, Sara Ahmed KhudhierCurrent power systems create environmental effects because of the using of fossil fuels, specially coal, since CO2 is released to the atmosphere. Contrary to conventional energy sources, renewable energy sources produce a clean energy which is in general free of pollution, environmentally sustainable and technologically efficient. There is an increased interest in solar energy that can generate electricity with no … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2017 · 7,807 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRice Starch as Coating Materials for Microencapsulation of Gamma Oryzanol to Improve its StabilityAnuchita Moongngarm, Jeerasupa Amornpan, Amaraphon Homduang et al.Gamma Oryzanol (GO) is a phytochemical with the ability to prevent oxidation. GO is normally degraded through oxidation by oxygen and sunlight. Microencapsulation is an important technique used to retard oxidation. This study compared rice starch and Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) as coating materials and investigated the stability of encapsulated GO during storage under activated oxidation conditions. The GO was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 8 · 27 Aug 2016 · 7,795 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) on Photovoltaic Panels using Fuzzy Logic MethodAhmad Faizal, Sutoyo, Mulyono et al.Solar energy is a clean energy, renewable, and available for the long term. The tool used to convert the energy generated from the intensity of sunlight into electricity is photovoltaic panels. However, due to the high cost and low efficiency, the use of the energy is still kind small compared to other types of energy sources. Thus, the need for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 10 Aug 2016 · 8,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDYNAMIC DAYLIGHT AND SOLAR CONTROL IN TROPICAL CLIMATEYaik-Wah LimDaylight is dynamic, thus there is no one common solution for all scenarios. It is more critical in tropical climate where the sky is predominantly intermediate; with inconsistent clouds formations which will influence the presence of direct sunlight and daylight availability. In this study, the potential of dynamic internal shading devices for improving daylighting performances in tropical climate was investigated. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA STOCHASTIC FRONTIER APPROACH FOR MEASURING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF SMALL-SCALE IMPROVED SALT PRODUCTION IN GUINEABoubacar Siddighi Balde, Hajime Kobayashi, Makoto Nohmi et al.Salt production is a major driving force behind the loss of mangrove in Guinea. As the traditional salt production causes increasing deforestation, the intensive exploitation of mangrove resources has now reached a critical threshold. Therefore, improved techniques using sunlight as the source of energy has been introduced as an alternative to the traditional salt production techniques which consumes a significant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 14 May 2014 · 7,647 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A PROXIMAL MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR OFF-SEASON WEED MAPPING IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE FALLOWSH. Liu, C. Saunders, S. H. LeeWeeds are among the most significant and costly environmental threats in Australian agriculture. Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients and sunlight and can have a detrimental impact on crop yields and quality if uncontrolled. The distribution, size, density and species of the weeds are often heterogeneous in the cropping land. Instead of uniformly spray the same type of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTiO2 Nanoparticles-Coated Polypropylene Copolymer as Photocatalyst on Methylene Blue Photodegradation under Solar ExposureHasniah Aliah, Mahardika Prasetya Aji, Masturi et al.Problem statement: Pollutions of water bodies by dye wastes from textile industries and other sources have become critical consideration. A photocatalytic technique using semiconductor materials such as Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) activated by lights has been considered as one economical method to solve this problem. Approach: We attached titanium dioxide on the surface of polymer grains as photocatalyc agents using a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 29 May 2012 · 7,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Modeling of Drying Characteristics of Chilies in a Rotating Fluidized Bed TechniqueKittichai Triratanasirichai, Watcharin Dongbang, Worachest PirompugdProblem statements: The present study investigates experimentally the thin layer drying of chilies in the Rotating Fluidized Bed (RFB) technique and its mathematical modeling. Approach: The layer’s height was fixed at 4±0.5 cm. In addition, the drying air velocity and the centrifugal acceleration ratio were fixed at 2 m sec-1 and G = 2.5 (106 rpm), respectively. With 6 data … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 6,970 accessesView PDFCite
