Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDensification Behaviour of a Red Firing Tunisian Triassic ClayHajer Baccour, Mounir Medhioub, Fakher Jamoussi, Taher. MhiriInvestigations were undertaken to assess the thermal modification in clay products from Triassic sedimentary deposits. This study deals with the mineralogical, physico-chemical, thermal analysis and faience making attributes of representative Triassic clay in the south-Eastern Tunisia. The data collected from these techniques show that illite and kaolinite are the major clay phases. The accessory minerals detected in powdered rock are; … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRemoval of Copper from Aqueous Solution using Tunisian ClayN. Boujelben, S. Gharab, F. Bouhamed et al.Natural adsorbents such as clay was used to replace expensive imported synthetic adsorbents. In this study, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to characterize the used sorbent (clays C). Batch experiments were performed to evaluate the effects of contact time, solution pH and temperature on copper removal onto used sorbent from aqueous solution. Equilibrium … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 15 Jun 2015 · 7,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Transport Phenomena on Pollutants Concentration in Mediterranean Tunisian RegionsKarim Bouchlaghem, Blaise Nsom, Jean-Francois DorvilleThe objective of this study is to investigate the origin of the polluted air masses in the Tunisian Mediterranean regions and to characterize the atmospheric conditions and the transport and dispersion mechanisms that give rise to pollution events. For this end, we conducted continuous measurements campaigns of surface ozone concentration and meteorological parameters during summer 2011 using mobile and fixed … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 23 Jan 2014 · 6,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Response Surface Methodology for Optimization of Nickel Adsorption in an Aqueous Solution by ClayNesrine Turki, Nesrine Boujelben, Zaineb Bakari, Jalel BouzidIn this study, Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction and BET surface area (SBET) methods were employed to characterize the adsorbent. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was consider as a good method to assess Ni adsorption treatment and Box-Behnken design was used to examine simultaneous the effects of different experimental variables (pH, adsorbent dosage, contact time). Experimental results showed high adsorption … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 5 · 24 Nov 2021 · 6,292 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractValuation of Biomaterial: Phragmites australis in the Retention of Metal-Complexed DyesAida Kesraoui, Asma Mabrouk, Mongi SeffenThe purpose of this research was to estimate the potential of cellulosic fibers of highly available and renewable Tunisian biomass Phragmites australis for the biosorption of an anionic metal complexed dye: Alpacide blue. The present study shows that the Phragmite australis were used successfully for the adsorption of Alpcide blue from aqueous solution. Equilibrium was reached after 5 h at … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 5 Jun 2017 · 7,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLICENSE PLATE LOCALIZATION USING GABOR FILTERS AND NEURAL NETWORKSSami Ktata, Faouzi Benzarti, Hamid AmiriVehicle License Plate Detection (LPD) is an important step for the vehicle plate recognition which can be used in the intelligent transport systems. Many methods have been proposed for the detection of license plates based on: Mathematical morphology, Discrete Wavelet Transform, Hough Transform and others. In general, an LPR system includes four main parts: Vehicle image acquisition, license plate detection, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 5 Sep 2013 · 6,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysicochemical and Microbial Caracteristics Performency in Wastewater Treated Under Aerobic ReactorAsma Ben Rajeb, Hamadi Kallali, Neila Saidi et al.Problem statement: The current work study the efficiency of biological wastewater treatment by an aerobic reactor which could be used in small agglomerations. RBC reduced physicochemical and microbiological load of wastewater but values remain above Tunisian standard. Approach: Experiments were conducted on a sand filled PVC column fed with wastewater treated by Rotating Biological Contactor (RBC) at a pulsed rhythm … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2011 · 6,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContribution to the Study of the Origin of Salinity in Alluvial Aquifer System in the Ain chabro-Hammamet (North-East ALGERIA)K. Seghir, N. KhériciTebessa is located in the Algerian North East. It is characterized by a semi-arid continental climate with an average interannual precipitation of less than 400 mm. It belongs to the Eastern Saharian Atlas field along the Tunisian borders. It is drained by a certain number of the wouady of which Chabro and Bouakous are the most important. The surface area … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamic Investigation of Two-Stage Absorption Refrigeration System Connected by a CompressorL. Kairouani, E. Nehdi, R. B. IffaThe present work is to analyze a two-stage cycle based on the ammonia-water absorption system, with intermediate compression. The two generators of the system are heated by geothermal energy at low temperature. The study shows that this system makes it possible at lower generator temperature, under the limits permitted by the systems suggested up to now. For Tg = 335 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,737 accessesView PDFCite
