Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAerosol Filtration Using Quartz Sand FilterAbbas H. Sulaymon, Yasmen A. MustafaThe cement industry is the major source of cement dust which contains heavy metals like nickel, cobalt, lead, chromium, arsenic and hazardous substances like dioxins and furans. Exposure to these substances can cause health problems to human, animals and vegetation. A continuous pilot scale quartz sand filter was constructed and uses to study the effect of important design parameters (temperature, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 20 Jun 2012 · 7,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEstimation of Pathogenic Microorganisms during Atmospheric Tempestat North AfricaU. Ali RahomaProblem statement: Dust continued to blow across northern Africa and the Mediterranean Sea on March 3, 2005. Many sources are associated with areas where human impacts are well documented. Approach: Nonetheless, the largest and most active sources are located in truly remote areas where there is little or no human activity. Dust activity is extremely sensitive to many environmental parameters. … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 29 Mar 2011 · 7,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCombustion of Bimodal Nano/Micro Aluminum Suspension with New Reaction Rate ModelM. Bidabadi, N. Moallemi, I. Shafieenejad, M. JadidiIn this study a mathematical model for combustion of bimodal particle in lean flow was developed. The difference between structure of flame in this work and previous ones was that, in those flame was divided by five zones and reaction rate was considered to be constant in reaction zones and also zero in post flame zone. In reality it was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSugarcane Phenological Date Estimation Using Broad-Band Digital CamerasMobasheri, M. Chahardoli, J. Jokar, M. FarajzadehIn the agricultural industry, precision farming is the most important task that attracts lots of attentions. The health of the plant depends mostly on the amount of water in its access that can be estimated through vegetation indices. These indices can be extracted from satellite images through Image processing algorithms. The objective of this research was to provide an equation … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsChemical and Physical Characteristics of Cocopeat-Based Media Mixtures and Their Effects on the Growth and Development of Celosia cristataYahya Awang, Anieza Shazmi Shaharom, Rosli B. Mohamad, Ahmad SelamatProblem statement: Cocopeat is considered as a good growing media component with acceptable pH, electrical conductivity and other chemical attributes but it has been recognized to have high water holding capacity which causes poor air-water relationship, leading to low aeration within the medium, thus affecting the oxygen diffusion to the roots. Incorporation of coarser materials into cocopeat could improve the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 19,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Developed Version of Conjugate Gradient Method With a New Parameter for Dai-Liao Conjugacy Condition With an Application to Solar PanelAhmad Alhawarat, Ramadan Sabra, Mehiddin Al-Baali et al.Conjugate Gradient (CG) methods are broadly employed in solving bigger-scale unconstrained optimization problems. Two famous methods are the Hestenes–Stiefel (HS) as well as Polak–Ribière–Polyak (PRP) CG methods, which usually work well in practice. However, they cannot satisfy the Global Convergence (GC) property. To retain and enhance the previous practical behavior as well as rectify the latter difficulty, this paper constructs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 7 · 15 Jul 2025 · 3,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Method for the Non-Destructive Assessment of Strength Degradation and Re-Use Potential of Weathered Float Glass From Facades: A Proof of Concept StudyFred Veer, Mauro Overend, Irene Sofokleous, Chris NoteboomLack of knowledge about the properties of weathered (used) glass is currently a major barrier to glass reuse. This results in probably unnecessary recycling or down-cycling of architectural glass at the end of life. Avoiding this creates a significant opportunity to reduce resource depletion and decarbonize the built environment. This can be done by developing an optical non-destructive test method … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 19 Oct 2023 · 9,292 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime FactoryRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuHave you asked yourself how you will look over 15 years? At the Bosch factory in Jucu, we saw a time machine that can help you to travel for 15 years in the future. And the technologies used seem to have come from the reality of the next decades. This "time machine" is, in fact, part of Bosch's Engineering, Quality … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2019 · 6,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhytoremediation and Adsorption of Heavy Industry Emitted from Cement Industry through Plant Leaves, Case Study: Golestan Peivand Cement FactorySoleyman Ghorbanzadeh, Meysam Madadi, Sara Abdollahi, Kaveh Ostad-Ali-AskariCement factories are found to be one of the major causes of pollution. Cement mist and dusts depositions affect the photosynthesis, secretion and fertility of the plant. Increasing the concentration of airborne dust reduces photosynthetic potential in leaves, closes leaf stomatals and, in general, reduces the growth and fertility of plants. The purpose of this study is to determine the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2020 · 6,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Various Combustible Materials on Insulating Properties of Refractory BricksIsiaka Olajide Odewale, Ebere Monica Ameh, Victor Tyonenge Dhave Amaakaven et al.The effect of various combustible materials on insulating properties of refractory bricks produced from Enugu fire clay and Ekebedi clay has been studied. This is aimed at determining the most favourable combustible material for different composition(s). The clays with combustible materials were used to compose different samples labeled A-G with varying percentages of combustible materials at reducing rate of 5% … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 22 Jul 2020 · 6,046 accessesView PDFCite
