Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized Biodiesel Production from jatropha curcas oilHaruna Musa, Daniel Eric, Alkhairu Hassan et al.In this study, a mathematical model for the trans-esterification reaction of jatropha curcas seed Oil (JCO) was developed using Response Surface Methodology(RSM) in terms of operational variables such as temperature (50 to 80°C), catalyst concentration (0.7 to 1% in relation to oil mass) and methanol/oil ratio (3:1-9:1), at fixed reaction time (90 min) and mixing intensity. Biodiesel was produced by … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2021 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation of Collagen Casings with High Mechanical Properties using Response Surface MethodologyZhike Xie, Ming He, Yuhan Zhai et al.Usages of plastic casing have a number of drawbacks like generation of waste associated with the materials used to package foods and the source of natural casings is limited. So, the interest in the development of biodegradable collagen casing is increasing. For this reason, the present study aimed at developing a new type of collagen casing sprayed with Tea Polyphenols … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2021 · 7,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Analysis of Six Pharmaceuticals using Online Solid Phase Extraction Liquid ChromatographySiti Norbayu Mohd Subari, Rozita Osman, Norashikin SaimIn this study, three parameters (sample volume, cleanup and elution step) in large volume injection online Solid Phase Extraction Liquid Chromatography with diode array detection (SPE-LC) were optimized for the determination of six pharmaceuticals in wastewater samples. Preconcentration and separation were carried out using 2 columns, Dionex Ion Pac AG14A and Acclaim Polar Advantage II. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 5 · 31 Mar 2017 · 7,513 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamics, Non-Linear Isotherms, Statistical Modeling and Optimization of Phosphorus Adsorption from WastewaterAkinpelu Kamoru BabayemiPalm Kernel Shell (PKN), an eco-friendly biomass, was carbonized and activated for the removal of phosphorus from wastewater through batch adsorption process. The studies evaluate the effects of pH, particle size, dosage and contact time on the adsorption capacity of the prepared adsorbent. The equilibrium concentration data and the amount of adsorption were described using non-linear regression analysis of the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 19 Nov 2016 · 7,512 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombination of Statistical Techniques for Submerged Fermentation for Extracellular Polysaccharide and Biomass of Ganoderma tsugaeNukrob Narkprasom, Jia-Hsin Guo, Tzou-Chi Huang, Yuan-Kuang GuuBiomass and extracellular polysaccharide of Ganoderma tsugae have various biological activity including anti-inflamatory activity, antioxidant activity and antitumor activity. However, the growth rate of G. tsugae in nature is very slow. Therefore, many studies have attempted to develop mass culture systems for G. tsugae using laboratory techniques. Many parameters of submerged fermentation for G. tsugae were studies to determine the … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2014 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
