Microwave dyeing was carried out under a variety of conditions in terms of the power and time of a microwave to investigate the effects of microwaving on the dyeability of acrylic fibers. It was found that the dyeability of acrylic fibers were significantly improved under microwave irradiation caused by the increased adsorption of the dye into fibers due to the local over heating and an amplifi...

background: the biological solids produced during wastewater treatment processes are called sludge. as sludge contains various sickening microorganisms such as pathogens, organic and inorganic substances and has adverse effects on human and environment, therefore it should be treated and processed entirely prior to disposal and then disposed in line to the environmental regulations. thermal tre...

chest tube (ct) or tube thoracostomy placement is often indicated following traumatic injuries. premature movement of the chest tube leads to increased hospital complications and costs for patients. placement of a chest tube is indicated in drainage of blood, bile, pus, drain air, and other fluids. although there is a general agreement for the placement of a chest tube, there is little consensu...

in which 4o is the self power spectrum of the noise voltage, To is the self power 0 0 spectrum of the noise current, A is the imaginary part of the cross power spectrum 0 of the noise voltage and current, and H is the real part of the cross power spectrum; O0 the subscript o indicates that all noise power spectra are taken at a reference plane beyond the potential minimum in the electron gun. T...

Background and Objective: Hodgkin's lymphoma is a potentially curable hematologic malignancy with difficulty in its diagnosis especially in atypical cases even in expert hands. Today, immunohistochemistry plays a significant role in the diagnosis of it especially applying the anti-CD15 and anti-CD30 antibodies. The negativity of CD15 can be reduced by antigen retrieval for meth...

microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (mahd) method has been compared with hydrodistillation (hd) conventional technique for extraction of essential oil from achillea millefolium. microwave-assisted hydrodistillation were examined at three levels of microwave powers (300, 500, and 700 w) .   obtained results show that   mahd offers important advantages over hd in terms of energy savings and extr...

the genus haplophyllum, which belongs to the rutaceae family, includes 18 species in iran. in this study, after collecting plant material, botanical identification and suitable drying, the essential oils from aerial parts of haplophyllum robustum bge. were extracted by three different isolation techniques, conventional hydrodistillation (hd), microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (mahd) and solv...

Results are presented on the development of a two stage high-efficiency, high-power 8.76-GHz traveling-wave tube amplifier. The work presented augments previously reported data on a single stage amplifier and presents new data on the operational characteristics of two identical amplifiers operated in series and separated from each other by a sever. Peak powers of 410 MW have been obtained over ...
