Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) Profile at Different Calcination Conditions for Synthesis of PTES-SBA-15Norhasyimi Rahmat, Nurjihan Sadon, Muhammad Abeed YusofThe aim of this work is to study the effects of calcination condition on the properties of mesoporous silica, SBA-15 modified with phenyl group of organosilane. Functional group SBA-15 were synthesized and hydrothermally aged. The surfactant template was conventionally removed by calcination at varied temperature and duration. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) was employed to characterize the pure and modified SBA-15. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 10 · 7 Apr 2017 · 8,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of Maturity Level in Laying Hen Manure by Chemical and Thermogravimetric AnalysisAlice Dall’Ara, Francesco Antolini, Laura Billi et al.This study aims at investigating maturity levels in manure from laying hens in order to encourage its agronomic re-utilization. In fact the use of unstable/insufficiently mature manure could potentially damage both soils and crops. Effective, easy to reproduce methods are needed in order to assess bio-stabilisation and maturity levels, particularly for biomass that has not undergone conventional composting. This study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDURABILITY OF MIXED MORTAR LINING CONTAINING DREGS-GRITSB. P. Zanella, E. B. Sá, N. O. Acorinti et al.The improper disposal of industrial waste and exploitation of natural resources has resulted in the scarcity of river sand and environmental degradation, such as river erosions and pollution. This study aimed to assess the durability of mixed mortar lining walls and ceilings, containing 0 (default), 10 and 20% of dregs-grits compounds-waste of the pulp industry-in substitution with river sand. This … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 26 Feb 2014 · 7,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAnalysis of Combustion Curve for Biomass Co-combustion with CoalRong Li, Li Li et al.Biofuel-coal co-combustion represents an innovative approach tocombustion that optimally harnesses biomass energy alongside coalresources, resulting in a significant reduction in pollutant emissions. Thisstudy investigates the combustion characteristics of peanut shell biomass,coal, and their blends at varying heating rates (5, 10, 20, and 40℃/min) anddifferent blending ratios. The effects of these parameters on the combustionprocess were systematically analyzed. The results indicate … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 13 May 2025 · 4,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImmunomodulatory and Antioxidant Activities of Selenium-Enriched Polysaccharides from Epimedium and Isatis IndigoticaRui Zhang, Jin Li, Jiajia ZhouThis study aims to investigate the effects of selenium modification on polysaccharides derived from two traditional Chinese medicinal herbs-Epimedium (Yinyanghuo) and Isatis root (Banlangen)-in enhancing immune function and antioxidant activity. The purpose is to explore the relationship between structure and function, providing a theoretical basis for the development of efficient plant-based functional antioxidants. Polysaccharides were extracted using an optimized enzymatic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2026 · 1,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterizations of MmtO-Copolymer (St-THF) NanocompositeHattab Youcef, Hakiki WahibaNanocomposites are synthesized by one or two polymers and optimized organophilic clay proportions. The aim of Synthesis of the Organophilic clay (montmorillonite) with a two monomers to get a copolytetrahydrofuran- styrene nanocomposite by insitu polymerization. Organophilic montmorillonite (MmtO) was synthesized by ion exchange between Na+ ions in the clay and HDTMAB alkylammonium cations in an aqueous medium. The MmtO were … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 10 · 19 Dec 2019 · 7,116 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControlled Release Behaviors of Tribenuron Methyl Herbicide and Potassium Nitrate Fertilizer from Natural Polymer Blended Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) Hydrogel MicrospheresFawzi Habeeb Jabrail, Wajeeh Mohammed Jamil, Maher Zeki Elsabee, Kailash Chandra GuptaPolyvinyl Alcohol (PVA) hydrogel microspheres for controlled release of fertilizer (KNO3) and Tribenuron Methyl Herbicide (TBM) were prepared by blending the naturally occurring Alginate (AL) and Pectin (PE). The cross-linking in PVA hydrogel microspheres was carried out by varying the amount of glutaraldehyde from 0.5-1.0 wt%. To control the loading and release properties of PVA hydrogel microspheres, a small amount … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 13 Jul 2019 · 7,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Solid Residues Obtained from Supercritical Ethanol Liquefaction of Swine ManureRui Li, Bo Zhang, Shuangning Xiu et al.Animal wastes are considered as renewable energy resources, which contain a great energy potential. For this study, swine manure was treated with supercritical ethanol within the reaction temperature range of 240-360°C to produce bio-oil, resulting in a significant amount of solid residues. Solid residues were characterized by using Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM), surface area, elemental and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 15 Jul 2015 · 7,687 accessesView PDFCite
