five-zone simulating moving bed (smb) system, designed for ternary separation, is a modified form of standard four-zone smb which is only effective in binary separation. it was reported in literature that the five-zone smb separates the extract-ii stream with a lower purity value than that of raffinate and extract-i streams. to address this issue, five zone smb was designed, using safety margin...

This paper presents the results of an investigation on the effects of concentration of cations on activated sludge properties and membrane fouling in submerge membrane bioreactors. The working volume of the experimental setup was two liters. The cellulose acetate membrane was immersed in the bioreactor. The flocculability, settling properties and fouling propensity of activated sludge was measu...

The role of Vi-capsular polysaccharide (Vi-CPS) in human immunity against infection caused by Salmonella typhi is well known. The downstream process of purification generally causes depolymerization of Vi-CPS to a nonimmunogenic low molecular weight form. In the present study, a standard strain of Sal. typhi Ty6s was grown under submerge cultural conditions in a pilot-plant scale of 90 Liter fe...

Application programmers increasingly prefer distributed stor-age systems with strong consistency and distributed transac-tions (e.g., Google’s Spanner) for their strong guarantees andease of use. Unfortunately, existing transactional storage sys-tems are expensive to use – in part because they require costlyreplication protocols, like Paxos, for fault tolerance. In thisp...

in advance longwall mining, the safety of mine network, production rate, and consequently, economic conditions of a mine are dependent on the stability conditions of gate roadways. the gate roadway stability is a function of two important factors: 1) characteristics of the excavation damaged zone (edz) above the gate roadway and 2) loading effect due to the caving zone (cz) above the longwall w...

Background: The archaeological and ethnographic heritages of Mongolia reflect a multi-millennial continuity typically mobile-pastoral occupations across sparsely populated, environmentally diverse landscapes, but the threats modernisation industrialisation to those are nevertheless present substantial. construction Erdeneburen Hydroelectric Dam on Khovd River in west...
