The high price of different biodiesels and the need for many their raw ingredients as food materials are main constraints to be overcome when seeking best potential alternative fuels petro-diesel. Apart from that, some properties like density, viscosity acid value along with low cloud pour points preclude use in compression ignition (CI) engines these can cause serious damage parts engine reduce life. In this experiment, biodiesel was produced oil unused algae by a two-step 'acid...
Bacteria are capable of performing metabolic activities which thereby promote precipitation of calcium carbonate in the form calcite. In this study, it is shown that microbial mineral was a result some specific microorganisms. Concrete microorganisms were used to improve overall behavior concrete. It predicted bacterial (CaCO3) occurs as byproduct common processes such urea hydrolysis. this study, ureolytic bacteria precipitating isolated and further their urease activity...
Biodiesel from inedible sources has become prominent in last few decades. But it is economically incompatible with petroleum diesel. At the same time, both petro-diesel and biodiesels are concerned environmental pollution, global warming, etc. Algae, on other hand, utilize CO2 for their growth can minimize some sort of pollution level results carbon credit a country. In Punjab, India, algae seen to grow many water bodies. all those taken away dumped vats. Some this huge biomass was used...
Cement kiln dust (CKD), a waste by-product, is major problem at many cement manufacturing plants because of high alkalinity, metals, and sulfates. CKD possesses the same cementitious characteristics as those cement, but use high-alkaline reduces quality strength concrete. In this study, used contained alkali (1,467 mg/L) hardness (467 content in leachate, which on treatment with bacterium Bacillus halodurans strain KG1 showed decrease 67.3% 85.6% hardness, 46% K2O, 27% SO3 powdered after 20...
This research deals with the preparation of Prosopis juliflora activated carbon (PJAC) via pyrolysis and chemical activation wood evaluation its suitability as an adsorbent for uptake ofloxacin (OFX) antibiotic. The morphological properties PJAC were analyzed using different characterization techniques, effects experimental parameters related to OFX adsorption evaluated. Experiments OFL on designed by Central composite design (CCD) based response surface methodology (RSM) expert software...
Abstract Melt blending of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE) and polylactide (PLA) was performed in an extrusion mixer with post blown film attachment without compatibilizer‐grafted maleic anhydride. The blend compositions were optimized for tensile properties as per ASTM D 882‐91. On the basis this, LLDPE 80 [80 wt % 20 poly( L ‐lactic acid) (PLLA)] MA‐ g ‐low‐density 80/4 (80 LLDPE, PLLA, 4 phr compatibilizer) found to be optimum composition. blends characterized according their...
The photocatalytic mineralization of imidacloprid (IMI) in soil to inorganic ions and the formation various intermediates using TiO<sub>2</sub>as photocatalyst have been investigated under UV light.
