Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMixed Nickel Cobalt Manganese Oxide Nanorods for supercapacitor applicationRajat Mondal, Surjit Sahoo, Chandra Sekhar RoutMixed Nickel Cobalt Manganese oxide (NiCoMn-Oxide) is a new class of excellent material for supercapacitor application. Here, hydrothermal synthesis technique has been employed to prepare mixed NiCoMn-Oxide nanorods. The elemental composition and morphology of this material were validated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and EDX techniques. To analyze the capacitive performance of this material, cyclic voltammetry and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 22 Jun 2016 · 9,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAdsorption of Nickel and Zinc by Residual SoilsNur ’Aishah Zarime, W. Y. Wan Zuhairi, Sivarama KrishnaSoil has long been utilized as low cost liner material to prevent contamination from leachate to groundwater media. To find a suitable soil material for this purpose is a great challenge. This study describes the potential use of residual soil to functions as engineered clay liner for waste disposal landfill in Malaysia.

Fayose et al.Problem statement: The concentration of Arsenic, Nickel and Iron from twenty water samples from Ugbe Akoko in Ondo state, Nigeria was determined with atomic absorption spectrometer and conductivity meter. Approach: The aims are to determine the level of concentration of the three heavy metals in the well water, the relationship between the WHO reference standard for pure water and the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleModification Approach of Fuzzy Logic Model for Predicting of Cutting Force When Machining Nickel Based Hastelloy C-276Basim A. Khidhir, Bashir Mohamed, Mahmoud A.A. YounisProblem statement: Most Nickel based Hastelloy C-276 is a difficult-to-machine material because of its low thermal diffusive property and high strength at high temperature. Machinability consideration of nickel based Hastelloy C-276 in turning operations has been carried out using ceramic inserts under dry conditions. Approach: This study described a modification approach applied to a fuzzy logic based model for predicting … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,456 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePromotion of Coconut Shell Gasification by Steam Reforming on Nickel-DolomitePattaraporn Chaiprasert, Tharapong VitidsantBiomass gasification by the use of metallic nickel as active metal on dolomite support has been chosen as catalyst because of its activity in biomass steam gasification and tar reduction. The purpose of this study is to study the effects of critical parameters on product gas compositions such as temperature, steam to carbon ratio (S/C) and oxygen input. The results … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 8,410 accessesView PDFCite

ThakurProblem statement: In the megacity Kolkata, the need for space to accomodate the ever increasing population is increasing day by day. As a result the encoarchment of the large wetland on the eastern frindge of the city is increasing and so is the threat of its loosing the status of Ramsar Status. Approach: Proper documentation of the existing traditional practice … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 9,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNice CV! You Will Hear From Us: Canadian Labor Market and the Phenomenology of the Marginalized Ethnic Professional MigrantBuster C. OgbuaguProblem statement: In the last several decades, the quest for human capital has meant that Canada’s consideration of potential migrants hinged largely on the needs of its labor market. Applying the human capital theory espoused by Schultz (1961) Canada, like other industrialized countries shows interests only in those migrants who it strongly believes will make exemplary contributions to the economy. … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Oct 2011 · 8,822 accessesView PDFCite
