Water hyacinth is a rapidly growing troublesome aquatic weed plant, which causes eutrophication in water bodies and irreversible damage to the ecological system. In this work, we have investigated biomass (WHB) hydrolysis efficacy of dilute alkaline (DA) pretreatment followed by biological with white-rot fungus Alternaria alternata strain AKJK-2. The effectiveness process on WHB was confirmed using X-ray Diffraction (XRD) Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer (FTIR), further...
In this research, vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data were determined at 318.15 K for the mixtures propan-1-ol + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane and butan-1-ol in an isothermic Othmer still with recirculation, where temperature was kept constant by means of a proportional-integral (PI) cascade control vapor phase. The concentration each phase gas chromatography, considered as nonideal. consistency verified Van Ness direct test thermodynamic consistency, supported several methods based on Gibbs–Duhem...
Simulation and rigorous design of industrial dryers combine a large number models, which feed three fundamental balances: (1) mass; (2) energy; (3) quantity movement the material through dryer. Many these models represent physical phenomena affecting balances at same time, makes calculations extremely complex, hence, accurate are essential. The hypothesis that drying kinetics any culminates in thermodynamic moisture equilibrium between solid gas has been effect for many years. However,...
The fruits of Prosopis juliflora have the potential to be raw material in production bioethanol due its high carbohydrate and fiber content, productivity arid localities. P. were characterized chemically, sun drying kinetics was modeled 2 physicochemical pretreatments evaluated. showed a moisture content 12.51% on wet basis (wb), 14.84% protein, 2.27% fat, 20.15% fiber, 58.49% Nitrogen Free Extract (NFE) 4.25% ash, dry (db). prediction Faneite-Suárez model best, within range prevailing...
