Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleDynamic Measurement of Copper (II) Ion Adsorption in Activated Carbon Fixed Bed ColumnsTanokkorn Banjonglaiad, Eric Croiset, Peter Silveston et al.Dynamic experiments were carried out on the adsorption of copper (II) ions in a laboratory packed bed of activated carbon. Both pulse and step change inputs were used. Measurements were reproducible and replicate measurements furnished nearly identical parameters for a heterogeneous model of the activated carbon bed assuming Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The initial concentration of copper (II) ion was 3 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAerobic Biodegradation of Per-Treated Methyl Tert-Butyl Ether By Ozonation in an Up-Flow-Fixed-Bed ReactorM. Sadeghi, M. Arbabi, A. Nikpey, G. MardaniProblem Statement: MTBE is a common pollution of environmental and has become an issue of considerable concern in recent years. It is not readily amenable to remove MTBE by conventional techniques in water treatment. In the present study, the feasibility of the continuous aerobic biodegradation of MTBE, was evaluated in an Up- Flow Fixed Bed Reactor (UFBR). Approach: The UFBR … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSustainable Management of Effluents from Small Piggery Farms in MexicoJ.L. de Victorica-Almeida, M. Galván-García, R. Ayala-RuizIn Mexico, pig farming is the third most important livestock activity due to its contribution to the total meat production. However, it is estimated that around 38% of pig farms dispose their wastewaters without any treatment directly into the nation’s water bodies, which in turn has a severe impact in the environment. One reason for not treating is the high … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsHeat Transfer Numerical Analysis of a Thermochemical Solar ReactorA. Vázquez-Rodríguez, J. R. Varela-Ham, R. Avalos-Zuñiga et al.In this study a 2D transient temperature distribution in a one-dimensional thermochemical solar reactor of gas-particles is presented. The gas-particles medium is contained in a reactor where an endothermic chemical reaction of some oxide-metal at high temperature is expected to be occurred. The reactor receives the concentrated solar power on the reactor walls, or directly to the gas-particles medium. As … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 6 Jan 2015 · 6,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe 2D Eulerian Approach of Entrained Flow and Temperature in a Biomass Stratified Downdraft GasifierA. Rogel, Jasni AguillónThis paper describes a “1-D+2-D” numerical model used to simulate the gasification of pine wood pellets in a stratified downdraft gasifier whereby Eulerian conservation equations are solved for particle and gas phase components, velocities and specific enthalpies. The model takes into account the biomass particle process such as heating up, drying, primary pyrolysis of biomass, secondary pyrolysis of tar, homogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 7,252 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInvestigation of Lignite and Firewood Co-combustion in a Furnace for Tobacco Curing ApplicationNakorn Tippayawong, Chutchawan Tantakitti, Satis ThavornunCo-combustion of lignite and firewood was investigated for an application in tobacco curing industry in Northern Thailand. Extensive experiments have been carried out in a newly developed furnace suitable for small curing unit, in place of locally made furnace. The aim of this investigation is to evaluate the performance of the combustion chamber in the required thermal output range for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of the Influence of Dust-Salt Aerosols of the Aral Sea on the Morphological Characteristics of the Tissue of the Epididymis of Rats in the ExperimentAssylgul Suleimen, Bibigul Rakhimova et al.Drying of the Aral Sea is a very significant environmental problem of modern times. Dust particles from the dried seabed are spread over long distances and negatively impact the quality of life of residents in nearby areas. One of the significant problems is the decrease in the fertility of residents of the Aral region, but there is insufficient data about … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 24 Jul 2024 · 4,809 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Comparisons of Anchovy Drying using Centrifugal and Gravitational Fluidized Bed TechniquesWatcharin Dongbang, Rungtawan WiwattanasirikulThe present study investigated experimental comparisons of anchovy drying using centrifugal and gravitational fluidized bed techniques; in addition, drying models and thermal efficiency were also investigated. In the first stage, fresh anchovy was dried with solar energy to reduce the initial moisture content from 81±1%wb to around 65%±1wb. In the second stage, the anchovy was dried with a dryer from … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 23 Apr 2015 · 7,349 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractINCREASING ADSORPTION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL FOR ADSORB H2S FROM BIOGAS PRODUCTION BY IMPREGNATIONWasan Phooratsamee, Kanokorn Hussaro, Sombat Teekasap, Jongjit HirunlabhBiogas is the combustible gas produced through a biological process, known as anaerobic digestion which is the process operated at low-temperature and without air. Biogas consists of 55-80% CH4, 20-45% CO2 with trace amount of H2S and other impurities. Common H2S removal technologies from biogas fall into one of adsorption on a solid such as iron oxide based materials, activated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 16 Aug 2014 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPREPARATION OF ACTIVATED CARBON FROM PALM OIL SHELL BY CHEMICAL ACTIVATION WITH Na2CO3 AND ZnCl2 AS IMPRENATED AGENTS FOR H2S ADSORPTIONKanokorn HussaroHydrogen Sulfide (H2S, rotten-egg) is one of the major environmental pollutants having its sources in natural and anthropogenic activities. It’s had smell gas produced by anaerobic digestion in acid condition from organic and inorganic compounds containing sulphur, presents dual problems of its toxicity and foul ordour. One of methods of its removal is adsorption. Activated carbon is a widely used … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jun 2014 · 8,480 accessesView PDFCite
