Al-Masri et al.Olive oil quality is a term influenced by many factors. Δ7 Stigmastenol is a new criteria used to determine olive oil quality especially its purity from adulteration with other types of seeds oil. Δ7 Stigmastenol-acidity correlation were investigated through studying the effect of the literature’s highlighted factors, namely; Olive fly infection, the land topographic and the preservation of olive before … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 7 Nov 2012 · 7,337 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Compressed Natural Gas Engine for Nitrogen Oxides ReductionP. M. Diaz, B. Durga PrasadProblem statement: This study describes the use of Reformer Gas (RG) to alter NOx emission in a CNG-fueled HCCI engine. Comparison with diesel, natural gas has a very high octane number (≈120) and high auto-ignition temperature (≈600°C). Composed mostly of methane, natural gas is the only common fuel to manifest relatively pure, single-stage combustion. Other fuels have stronger low-temperature reaction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 15 May 2012 · 7,299 accessesView PDFCite
