The typical bathtub curve and its “standard”shape have been widely accepted as an engineering tool in reliability management and training. However, some recent researches reveal that the typical theory of ‘bathtub curve’is not so convincing in some situations. Therefore, a critical discussion is developed to research the bath-tub curve along three significant periods of bath-tub; i.e. infant mo...

The formation of highly active and stable acetylene hydrochlorination catalysts is great industrial importance. successful replacement the toxic mercuric chloride catalyst with gold has led to a flurry research in this area. One key aspect, which commercialization use thiosulphate as stabilizing ligand. This study investigates range sulfur containing compounds promoters for production Au/C cata...

The effluent treatment plant sludge is one of the major sources of contamination with toxic metals. Since the sludge contains heavy metals, it must be pretreated to reduce the contamination. The heavy metals from the sludge can be reduced/ separated by washing it with a suitable leaching solution. In the present study, the efficiencies of three leaching solutions to remove the contaminants from...

The aim of this study was to treat wastewater from washing, cutting or crushing intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), steel drums and plastic drums, using the sulfate radical-based oxidation method. In study, it planned make suitable for activated sludge treatment by applying neutralization after a process. Samples were taken industry three times these processes. To determine optimum conditions ...
