Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Seven-Lump Kinetic Model in the Fluid Catalytic Cracking UnitMehran Heydari, Habib AleEbrahim, Bahram DabirProblem statement: The effective simulation of the Fluid Catalytic Cracking (FCC) operation requires a good understanding of many factors such as, reaction kinetic, fluid dynamics and feed and catalyst effects. Approach: In this model the reactor has been considered as an isothermal riser. The reactions in the riser occur with the fluid and the solids in ideal plug flow. Because … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of the Adsorption of the Lead (II) by the Nonliving Biomass Spirogyra neglecta (Hasall) KutzingModher A. Hussain, Aishah Salleh, Pozi MilowProblem statement: Conventional techniques for removing dissolved heavy metals are only practical and cost-effective when applied to high strength wastes with heavy metal ion concentrations greater than 100 ppm. The possibility of using a nonliving algal biomass to solve this problem was carried in this study. Lead (II) was used in this study because it had been reported to cause … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,802 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Heat Transport in a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) Fuel CellE. Afshari, S.A. JazayeriIn this study a two-phases, single-domain and non-isothermal model of a Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cell has been studied to investigate thermal management effects on fuel cell performance. A set of governing equations, conservation of mass, momentum, species, energy and charge for gas diffusion layers, catalyst layers and the membrane regions are considered. These equations are solved numerically in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,342 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHomotopy Perturbation Method and Variational Iteration Method for Solving Zakharov-Kuznetsov EquationB. Ganjavi, H. Mohammadi, D.D. Ganji, A. BarariThis article investigates a nonlinear dispersive Zakharov-Kuznetsov ZK (3, 3, 3) equation. This equation governs the behavior of weakly nonlinear ion-acoustic waves in plasma comprising cold ions and hot isothermal electrons in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. Homotopy Perturbation Method (HPM) and Variational Iteration Method (VIM) are implemented for solving the ZK equation. Homotopy results were compared with … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,798 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEquilibrium Adsorption of Hydrogen and Methane on 5A Molecular SieveHayder A. Abdul Bari, Abdul Halim A.K. Mohammed, Abbas K.M. Shua'ab, Rosli Bin Mohd. YunusAdsorption equilibrium isotherms of hydrogen and methane are reported for the temperature range 303-333 K and pressure up to 4 MPa. The adsorbent was 5A molecular sieve (supplied by Rhone Poulenc industries Ltd.). Experimental data were obtained using a static system for gas-solid adsorption. The Langmuir adsorption equilibrium equation gave excellent predictions. Adsorption of hydrogen and methane on 5A molecular … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrosion of Copper Metal in Presence of Binary MixturesMedhat A. Shaker, Hanaa H. Abdel-RahmanThe rates of copper corrosion were determined in presence and in absence of different compositions of water-ethanol, -ethylene glycol, -glycerol, -dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and -dioxane binary mixtures. The rates of corrosion were found to decrease by increasing the concentration of solvents. The percent inhibition range from 10.9 to 78.2% depends on the nature of solvent and its concentration. The calculated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 8,230 accessesView PDFCite
