Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhotocatalytic Activity and Antibacterial Behavior of Fe3+-Doped TiO2/SnO2 NanoparticlesLek Sikong, Budsabakorn Kongreong, Duangporn Kantachote, Weerawan SutthisripokProblem statement: Since bacteria mainly causes damage on fresh vegetables and fruits during transportation to market, anti-bacterial TiO2 photocatalyst was applied for their packaging films. However, it has been known that pure TiO2 exhibits low photocatalytic property due to rapid recombination of photo-activated electrons and holes. Doping with metal or metal oxide shows the improvement of photocatalytic activity and disinfection … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 15,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Affecting the Synthesis and Formation of Single-Phase Barium Hexaferrite by a Technique of Oxalate PrecursorQ. MohsenProblem statement: Barium hexaferrite (BaFe12O19), is of great importance as permanent magnets, particularly for magnetic recording as well as in microwave devices. Approach: The aim of this study was to synthesize Stoichiometric and single-phase barium hexaferrite through a technique of oxalate precursor. Effects of different Fe3+/Ba2+ mole ratio and annealing temperature on the particle size, microstructure and magnetic properties of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,922 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Bioactivity of Sol Gel Derived 3Y-TZP Bioinert Ceramic through Hydroxylation Technique Using 5M H3PO4R. Velmurugan, S. Kanagesan, S. Jesurani, T. KalaivaniProblem statement: This study presented bone like apatite formation on yttria stabilized zirconia in Simulated Body Fluid (SBF) through hydroxylation technique. Approach: Sol gel route was used to prepare yttria stabilized zirconia. Then it was hydroxylated with 5M H3PO4 for formation of Zr-OH group. Moreover, the growth rate of calcium and phosphate on zirconia substrate was examined using simulated body … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRocks with Asbestos: Risk Evaluation by Means of an Abrasion TestBellopede Rossana, Clerici Carlo, Marini Paola, Zanetti GiovannaNaturally occurring asbestos and asbestiform minerals can be found in metamorphic rocks and in the soil of the alluvial plains. Problem statement: The definition of the "free-asbestos rock" and the limit to consider a rock or a soil safe is still a controversial issue. American and European laws did not present any method to define the hazard of the green … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,667 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorption of Phenols: Influence of Groundwater pH and of Soil Organic Carbon ContentSilvia Fiore, Maria Chiara ZanettiProblem statement: Physical and chemical properties of soil, groundwater and pollutants deeply influenced the type and the strength of sorption phenomena involving hydrophobic organic contaminants: Soil fraction of organic carbon (foc) and cation exchange capacity, groundwater pH and pollutants hydrophobicity were with undoubtedly the predominant issues. Approach: In this study an experimental study of the sorption of phenol and 2-nitrophenol … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScale Formation Due to Water Injection in Malaysian Sandstone CoresAmer Badr Bin Merdhah, Abu Azam Mohd YassinProblem statement: Scale deposition is one of the most serious oil field problems that inflict water injection systems primarily when two incompatible waters are involved. Approach: This study was conducted to investigate the permeability reduction caused by deposition of calcium, strontium and barium sulphates in sandstone cores from mixing of injected Malaysian sea waters (Angsi and Barton) and formation water … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Cadmium (II) Ions Biosorption onto Pretreated Dried Activated SludgeR. Darvishi Cheshmeh Soltani, A. Jonidi Jafari, Gh. Shams KhorramabadiProblem statement: Heavy metals have been one of hazardous components in industrial effluents that can be damaged on the environment by discharging uncontrolled wastewater. The aims of this investigation were biosorption of Cd (II) ions onto pretreated dried activated sludge and determination of kinetic and isotherm of biosorption. Approach: Activated sludge was obtained from Tehran municipal wastewater treatment plant. Activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Partial Orientation in [100] Direction on the Magnetic Properties of Co-Ferrite Prepared from Nano ParticlesH. M. El-SayedChemical co-precipitation method was used for the preparation of Co-ferrite nano particles. The particle size was about 18 nm. A magnetic anisotropy of Co-ferrite could be increased by applying an external magnetic field during the pressing of the nano particles before the final sintering. This anisotropy enhanced the squareness and the coercivity of investigated samples. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,220 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombustion of Bimodal Nano/Micro Aluminum Suspension with New Reaction Rate ModelM. Bidabadi, N. Moallemi, I. Shafieenejad, M. JadidiIn this study a mathematical model for combustion of bimodal particle in lean flow was developed. The difference between structure of flame in this work and previous ones was that, in those flame was divided by five zones and reaction rate was considered to be constant in reaction zones and also zero in post flame zone. In reality it was … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Frequency Mode inside an Open Cavity for Different Shape RatioHallek Khouloud, Mourad Bouterra, Afif El Cafsi et al.A number of studies have referred to the existence of a vortex cell within an urban street canyon. The understanding of vortex dynamics or vorticity distribution is a such configuration is of great interest. This configuration was simulated by the interaction between a boundary layer and a cavity. Experimental characterization of the vortex structures evolution was developed by the technique … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,843 accessesView PDFCite
