In this article, denaturing with aniline and refining process of the oil responsible for toxic oil syndrome is briefly reviewed. The aspects considered include description of conditions of the main refining steps in relation to aniline derivatives formation, with special focus on the deodorization stage. In this last step of the refining process, an increase in the temperature, applied to such ...

The aim of this study was to determine the presence and nature of organic micropollutants in river overbank and floodplain sediments from the border between Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina following the catastrophic 2014 flood. The study involved ten sediment samples from the Sava and Bosna river floodplain. The volatile aromatic compounds, i.e. benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (BT...

the aim of this research was optimization of refining of raw sugarcane juice using bentonite for production of natural liquid sugar or cane honey. non-sugar substances of raw sugarcan juice contains: colorants, polysaccharides, gums, proteins, etc that affect on efficiency and quality of the final product and should remove from raw sugarcane juice. gelatin is a protein which is used as an aid c...

Environmental niche modeling outputs a biological species' potential distribution. Further work is needed to arrive at a species' realized distribution. The Biological Species Approximate Realized Niche (BioSARN) application provides the ecological modeler with a toolset to refine Environmental niche models (ENMs). These tools include soil and land class filtering, niche area quantification and...

Abstract A number of TxDOT-sponsored studies and research projects have been conducted over the years regarding shear strength and slope stability i...

rheological properties of chocolate are important in manufacturing process for obtaining high-quality products with well-defined texture and are directly influenced by composition and their refining time. soy protein benefits from nutritional and functional properties to be used in different foods. effects of different replacement levels of skim milk powder by soy flour, (from 0 to 100%) and ba...

The profiles of major volatile organic compound (VOC) sources in petrochemical industry of the Yangtze river delta, China, were experimentally determined. Source samples were taken using summa canister near the petrochemical units. The concentrations of 72 VOC species were quantified using canister sampling and a gas chromatography–mass spectrometry system, and VOC source profiles were develope...

The formation of chromophores and leucochromophores during the manufacturing of thermomechanical pulp (TMP) has been investigated. As analytical tools, advanced UV-VIS and NMR spectroscopy have been used. With the exception of some pilot plant scale refining experiments, that were carried out at Valmet Fibertech (Sundsvall), the work has been conducted at the Royal Institute of Technology (Stoc...
