Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Temperature Convective Drying of a Packed Bed with Humid Air at Different HumiditiesJ. Sghaier, S. Messai, D. Lecomte, A. BelghithProblem statement: Drying a packed bed of porous particle at high temperature with varying humidity of hot air is an attractive process. Many researches on experimental and simulation on a fixed bed drying at low and average temperature are proposed. Few studies showed drying at high temperature with humid air or using superheated steam. The latest is compared to dry … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,023 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Activated Sludge Floc CharacteristicsIbrahim H. Mustafa, G. Ibrahim, Ali Elkamel, A. H. ElahwanyProblem Statement: The activated sludge system needs to improve the operational performance and to achieve more effective control. To realize this, a better quantitative understanding of the biofloc characteristics is required. The objectives of this study were to: (i) Study the biofloc characteristics from kinetics-mass transfer interaction point of view by quantification of the weight of the aerobic portion of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of some by-Products using In situ and In vitro Gas Production TechniquesBesharati Maghsoud, Taghizadeh Akbar, Janmohammadi Hossein, Moghadam Gholam AliFood by-products in Iran are produced in high levels. In this study, in situ and in vitro gas production techniques were used to describe nutritive value of apple pomace, tomato pomace and noodle waste. For this purpose two ruminal fistulated sheep were used. Nylon bags which were approximately (6×12 cm) containing 5 g samples (2 mm screen) were incubated in … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutrient Digestibility and Gas Production of Some Tropical Feeds Used in Ruminant Diets Estimated by the in vivo and in vitro Gas Production TechniquesPaya Hamid, Taghizadeh Akbar, Janmohammadi Hossein, Moghadam Gholam AliSome feedstuffs which used in ruminants diet (corn grain, soybean meal, wheat bran and alfalfa) were analyzed for chemical composition, apparent in vivo nutrient digestibility, in vitro fermentation gas production and metabolizable energy. Chemical composition of test feeds differed in nutrient contents. Initially apparent in vivo digestibility of alfalfa nutrients were obtained then digestibility of nutrients for the other test … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioaccumulation of Cr(III) ions by Blue-Green alga Spirulina sp. Part I. A Comparison with BiosorptionKatarzyna ChojnackaThe paper presents the results of studies on kinetics and equilibrium of bioaccumulation process of Cr(III) ions by blue-green alga Spirulina sp. Bioaccumulation was described as the process that consists of two stages, passive (identical with biosorption) and active (accumulation inside the cells). The passive stage (similarly as biosorption itself) was found to be quick process and the subsequent active … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdsorption Kinetic of 8-Hydroxyquinoline on MalachiteGabriela OPREA, Angela MICHNEA, Cristina MIHALIInfluence of temperature and collector concentration on its adsorption rate on mineral surface was studied as regarding to the 8-hydroxyquinoline/malachite system. Theoretical equations as well as experimental data may be useful to estimate the adsorption rate and kinetics connected to the conditioning stage in mineral flotation in order to optimise the selectivity and the recovery of the desired mineral. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtein Molecular Structures, Protein SubFractions, and Protein Availability Affected by Heat Processing: A ReviewPeiqiang YuThe utilization and availability of protein depended on the types of protein and their specific susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis (inhibitory activities) in the gastrointestine and was highly associated with protein molecular structures. Studying internal protein structure and protein subfraction profiles leaded to an understanding of the components that make up a whole protein. An understanding of the molecular structure of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Properties of Copolyanhydrides Based on 2-Hexadecylsuccinic Acid and Sebacic AcidYousef Hamdan, Xiangmei Jiang, Kaixun Huang, Kaichao YuPoly(2-hexadecylsuccinic acid-sebacic acid) (P(HSA-SA)) copolymers have been prepared by melt polycondensation. The copolymers were characterized by FT-IR, 1HNMR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). In vitro studies showed that all our prepared copolymers are degradable in phosphate buffer at 37°C. The release profiles of hydrophilic model drug, ciprofloxcin hydrochloride, from the copolymers, follow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Elijah Johnson, Larry RobinsonKinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the oyster biological characteristics such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,474 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of the Application of Sewage Sludge and Presence of Pesticides on the Development of the Microbial Population of the Soil and on the Transformation of Organic Carbon and Nutrient ElementsM.E. Sánchez, I. B. Estrada, O. Martínez et al.The laboratory trial consisted in incubating samples of soil and soil treated with sewage sludge, with the application of organophosphate pesticides with different active ingredients under controlled conditions of temperature and moisture.
