'Solids formed from coprocessing of 10% coal/90% resid were characterized by solvent extraction, elemental analyses, C'3/C'z isotope ratio, ESR, and GPC techniques. adsorbed petroleum-derived material (oil, resin, asphaltene). The THF insolubles in the product contained high oxygen, low vanadium and a higher level of polyaromatic radicals than the soluble fraction, indicating that these insolub...

The study was conducted in Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 7 treatments replicated thrice. were T1 (pomegranate juice 1ltr + 0.5 g yeast 500 sugar), T2 1g 500g T3 1.5g T4 2g T5 2.5g T6 3g T7 3.5g sugar). pomegranate fermented using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. cider assessed for the physico-chemical changes that occurred throughout its 90 days of storage, as well sensory quality a 9-point ...

background: considering the toxic effects of heavy metals and microbial pathogens in industrial wastewaters, it is necessary to treat metal and microbial contaminated wastewater prior to disposal in the environment. the purpose of this study is to assess the removal of heavy metals pollution and microbial contamination from a mixture of municipal and industrial wastewater using membrane bioreac...

A nondestructive optical method for determining the soluble solids content of fresh whole tomatoes was investigated. The method, based upon near infrared spectrophotometric techniques, could predict the soluble solids content of tomatoes (r 5 0.92, SEC 5 0.277Brix). Tomatoes from more than 30 popular fresh market cultivars at stages of maturity from mature green to ripe red fruit were studied.

The capacity of honey to break light is used for refractometric determination humidity. In the present work, a manual refractometer was measure total soluble solids (73% - 86%) which are corresponding values refractive indices stated in Chataway’s Table. relationship between solids, water content and index obtained graphics gave equations that could be directly calculate both from its solids. T...

The physicochemical characteristics of Libyan Eucalyptus honey were measured including: moisture with 18.00%, sugars (fructose; 40.00, glucose; 32.00%, sucrose; 1.50% & maltose; 4.70%), total proteins; 0.08%, total amino acids; 0.11%, total acidity; 25.00meq./gk, HMF; 4.60mg/kg, color; light amber, ash; 0.17%, total soluble solids; 82.00% and insoluble solids; 0.07%, and electrical conductivity...

the effects of salicylic acid (sa) and putrescine (put), on cut gladioluswas studied. sa (0, 150, 300 and 450 mg l-1) and put (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg l-1), their combinations were tested as preservative mixture. this study was conducted in a factorial experiment with complete randomized design on 192 gladioluscut flowers in horticulture laboratory of agriculture faculty of islamic azad universi...

A lab-scale SBR equipped with a flat sheet membrane in submerged configuration that is named MSBR was used for the treatment of composting leachate. It was fed by biologically treated leachate with overall 70-1360 mg/L Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). The values of pH, Electrical Conductivity (EC), and Dissolved Oxygen (DO) were monitored r...
