The effect of the pore size distribution on size-resolved filtration efficiency was investigated for two ceramic particulate filters using matter (PM) generated by a spark-ignition direct-injection engine fueled with gasoline. cordierite filter tested had porosity 43%, median diameter 12 ?m, and wide lognormal standard deviation (??) 0.4. aluminum titanate very similar porosity, diameter, thick...

Biomass gasification is increasingly attracting interest in the research of biorenewable energy all over world, as a carbon-neutral supplement to conventional fossil energy. It can convert biomass burnable producer gas for heat and power production or synthesis fuels chemicals. However, its commercial applications are seriously interfered by minor but unavoidable contaminants impurities raw pro...

This paper investigates the knowledge regarding how user-centred design can be built in ceramic consumer products. The paper gives the general overview of ceramics, computer-aided design and its application in ceramic product development. It also illuminates on product emotion, its influence on consumers’ behaviour and how it can be integrated into new product conceptualization. Furthermore, th...
