The Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is a heterogeneously catalyzed surface polymerization reaction with wide spectrum of hydrocarbons as products, following the Anderson-Schulz-Flory distribution. Subsequent cracking unwanted long-chain products can increase desired product fraction shorter (HCs). In this work, Co/Mn-catalyzed FTS additional by Pt/H-ZSM-5 zeolite was investigated to selectivity...

Also determine whether LPG molecule and the sand fly the gut lysates have shared epitopes. DESIGN A laboratory based study. SETTING Colony bred P. duboscqi sand flies and all other experiments were done under laboratory c...

The present study investigates three different fuels such as gasoline, liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), and syngas in spark-ignition Honda GX270 Genset engine under wide-open throttle position on its performance, combustion characteristic well availability analysis. results showed that when the operated with gasoline fuel, brake thermal efficiency was higher than of LPG by 6.2% 7.4%, respectively...

Globally, around three billion people depend upon solid fuels such as firewood, dry animal dung, crop residues, or coal, and use traditional stoves for cooking heating purposes. This fuel combustion causes indoor air pollution (IAP) severely impairs health the environment, especially in developing countries like Pakistan. A number of alternative household energy strategies can be adopted to mit...
