Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of Microbial Biomasses C and N during the Composting of Municipal solid WastesOlfa Fourti, Naceur Jedidi, Abdennaceur HassenProblem statement: The aim of this study was mainly focused on the evolution of microbial biomasses C and N during the composting of municipal solid wastes. Approach: The carbon and the nitrogen of the microbial biomass (BC and BN) were studied using the fumigation-extraction method. Results: The dynamics of the BC/BN ratio, index of the chemical composition of the whole … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2011 · 6,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombined Partial Oxidation and Carbon Dioxide Reforming Process: A Thermodynamic StudySompop JarungthammachoteProblem statement: CO2 reforming is one of the methods to utilize a greenhouse gas to produce syngas, an important feed for methanol and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis. However, CO2 reforming is strong endothermic reaction requiring large amount of supplied energy. Partial oxidation, an exothermic reaction, is combined with CO2 reforming to serve the energy requirement. Thus, the optimum ranges of O2 and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,527 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Difference Electrode Materials in Electrical Discharge Machining of Tungsten CarbideP. Janmanee, A. MuttamaraProblem statement: Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) is now a well-established machining option in many industries. Tungsten carbide (WC-Co) is an important tool and die material mainly because of its high hardness, strength, wear resistance and high melting point. Normally, EDM is capable of machining geometrically complex or hard material component, that are precise and difficult to machine. The objective of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolid Waste Characterization and Recycling Potential for University Technology PETRONAS Academic BuildingsAmirhossein Malakahmad, Muhammad Za’im Zaki bin Che Mohd Nasir, Shamsul Rahman Mohammed Kutty, Mohammed Hasnain IsaProblem statement: In many countries such as Malaysia, it is increasingly more difficult to find suitable locations for landfills, which are accepted by the population. These circumstances are to be found all over the world and make new strategies for waste management necessary. Approach: Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) systems are one of the greatest challenges for sustainable development. But … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,867 accessesView PDFCite
