An exergy composite curves approach for the design of optimum multi-pressure organic Rankine cycle processes
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2014)
This work adopts the (ECCs) under bar (exergy composite curves) approach to explore the potential for ORC (organic Rankine cycle) process improvements. The method is used to explore different ORC configurations supported ...
Speciations of trace metals in the Danube alluvial sediments within an oil refinery
(Oxford : Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd., 2005)
A sequential extraction procedure was applied to identify forms of Ni, Zn, Ph and Cu with Fe- and Mn-oxides associated in alluvial sediments of the River Danube within Pancevo Oil Refinery (Serbia). The five steps of the ...
Supramolecular Route to Well-Ordered Metal Nanofoams
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2011)
Metal nanofoams with a porosity above 50% v/v have recently attracted great. Interest In materials science due to their interesting properties.. We.. demonstrate a new straightforward route to prepare such nanofoams using ...
A refined pharmacophore identifies potent 4-amino-7-chloroquinoline-based inhibitors of the botulinum neurotoxin serotype A metalloprotease
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2007)
We previously identified structurally diverse small molecule (non-peptidic) inhibitors (SMNPIs) of the botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT/A) light chain (LC). Of these, several (including antimalarial drugs) contained ...
Determination of glass temperature of polymers by inverse gas chromatography
(Elsevier, 2008)
Inverse gas chromatography (IGC) is an attractive technique for polymer characterization due to possible simultaneous determination of various physicochemical properties of polymer systems merely from retention times of ...
Removal of organically bound sulfur from oil shale by iron(III)-ion generated-regenerated from pyrite by the action of Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans - Research on a model system
(Elsevier, 2008)
Oil shale is one of the alternative sources of hydrocarbon fuels ("synthetic petroleum") but is characterized by increased sulfur and nitrogen contents, which represent even greater ecological problems in its use compared ...
Decrease of free fatty acid content in vegetable oil using silica supported ferric sulfate catalyst
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
A difficulty of biodiesel synthesis based on alkaline catalysts obviously exists if free fatty acids (FFAs) content in vegetable oil is above 0.5 wt.%. In this study, the ferric sulfate supported on silica (Fe-2(SO4)(3)/SiO2) ...
Far infrared properties of sintered NiO
(Elsevier, 2007)
Far infrared reflection spectra of NiO polycrystals sintered at 1100 °C for various times (30–240 min) were measured at room temperature using a FTIR Spectrometer—Brucker 113V. The measured spectra depended on the sintering ...
Structural, photoluminescent and photocatalytic properties of TiO2:Eu3+ coatings formed by plasma electrolytic oxidation
(Elsevier, 2016)
In this paper, we used plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) of titanium in water solution containing 10 g/L Na3PO4 center dot 12H(2)O + 2 g/L Eu2O3 powder for preparation of TiO2:Eu3+ coatings. The surfaces of obtained ...
Cell wall invertase immobilization within calcium alginate beads
(Elsevier, 2007)
Yeast cell wall invertase (CWI) was immobilized within calcium alginate beads. The result of entrapment was the complete immobilization of all the added CWI. Three types of biocatalysts were prepared: CWI-S, CWI-155 and ...
