Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUpgrading of Light Dewaxed Oil through Hydrofinishing and Additives Blending for Producing Automatic Transmission FluidGamal Abdel-Nasser Gohar, Mohamed Sherif El-Gayar, Abd El-Moneim Ibrahim et al.Light dewaxed oil was produced through dewaxing process of the light waxy distillate raffinate of crude oil from Western Desert of Egypt using methyl ethyl ketone/toluene mixed solvent. Hydrofinishing process was used to remove the non-hydrocarbon constituents and to improve the physicochemical properties of the produced oils such as color, viscosity index, inhibition responses, oxidation and thermal stability. The operating … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,982 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe 2D Eulerian Approach of Entrained Flow and Temperature in a Biomass Stratified Downdraft GasifierA. Rogel, Jasni AguillónThis paper describes a “1-D+2-D” numerical model used to simulate the gasification of pine wood pellets in a stratified downdraft gasifier whereby Eulerian conservation equations are solved for particle and gas phase components, velocities and specific enthalpies. The model takes into account the biomass particle process such as heating up, drying, primary pyrolysis of biomass, secondary pyrolysis of tar, homogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,257 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethyltert-butyl Ether (MTBE) Degradation by a Microbial ConsortiumS. B. Mortazavi, A. Nikpey, A. Rezaee et al.Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is added to reformulated gasoline to meet the 1990 Clean Air Act directives. Widespread use of MTBE in gasoline has resulted in groundwater contamination. Because of its undesirable effects on drinking water and ecologically harmful effects, MTBE removal has become a public health and environmental concern. In this study, we have isolated a mixed bacterial culture … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCreation of a New Highly Productive Parent Material of Sweet Clover (Melilotus Adans.) based on Varietal and Microbial SystemsN.I. Filippova, I.V. Rukavitsina, E.I. Parsayev et al.The paper presents the results of studies carried out on the experimental field of Research and Production Center of Grain Farming named after A.I. Barayev Limited Liability Partnership for the creation of new parent material for yellow sweet clover (Melilotus officinalis (L.) Pall.) and Volga sweet clover (Melilotus wolgicus Poir.) based on varietal and microbial systems. The studies were carried … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 13 Apr 2022 · 5,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Evidence for the Role of Natural Radioactivity in Influencing Viability of Commensal MicroorganismsMarco RuggieroTo investigate the feasibility of culturing edible microbes, classified as probiotics for human consumption, in commercially available, naturally radioactive, mineral water; to compare their viability with that of the same microbes cultured in deuterium-depleted water. A diversified array of probiotics was cultured in two different naturally radioactive mineral waters, or in deuterium-depleted water in order to assess the effects of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 26 May 2021 · 8,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Simulation and Analysis of Crystallization System in PVC Tunnel Drain-Pipe at Different TemperaturesZhongwei Hou, Xuefu Zhang, Yuanjiang ZhouAiming at the problem that carbonate and calcium ions are easy to crystallize and precipitate in the drain-pipes of limestone tunnels and then adsorb on PVC pipes in Western China, a "solid-liquid interface model" for the interaction between PVC materials and ions in aqueous solution is established by using the molecular dynamics simulation software materials studio and the microscopic mechanism … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2021 · 6,283 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisinfection of Water using Supported Titanium Dioxide PhotocatalystsShamkumar Pandurang Deshmukh, Dattatray Krishna Dalavi, Yuvaraj Mohan HungeTiO2 based photocatalyst has potential material for disinfection of harmful pathogens as well as removal of organic compounds. The formation of reactive oxygen species is a key part for overall process but aggregation and band gap constraint explore a new dimension to use of support for propounding its physicochemical properties. Therefore, the modification of TiO2 using various support alters photocatalytic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2020 · 7,266 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractβ-Naphthalene Incorporated Thiazole-5-Carboxamides/Thiazole -5- Ketones: Design, Synthesis and Anticonvulsant Screening against Two Seizure ModelsMohammed Faiz Arshad, Faisal Al-Otaibi, Gulam Mustafa et al.A bunch of β-naphthalene incorporated thiazole-5-carboxamides/thiazole -5- ketones (7a-7o& 8a-8e) were prepared by reacting 4-methyl-2-(naphthalen-2-yl)thiazole-5-carbonyl chloride with appropriate amines. Structures of all the compounds were explained by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H NMR and mass spectral data. The compounds were evaluated for their anticonvulsant activity employing MES and chemoshock (scPTZ) seizure tests. Neurotoxicity was also assessed. Majority of these compounds exhibited … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Aug 2019 · 7,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of Intelligent Household Fruit Vinegar Fermentation Device and Optimization of Key ParametersXinpeng Dai, Xiaoxue Xing, Lin Liu et al.Compared with carbonated beverages, fruit vinegar was gradually becoming more favored by consumers, because of their higher nutritional functions. But its popularization was limited by higher selling price. This article described a fruit vinegar fermentation device that can be used at home and also introduced the design principles, composition and operation methods. Furthermore, taking apple vinegar as an example, the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 24 Aug 2018 · 10,840 accessesView PDFCite
