LIME is a middleware supporting the development of applications that exhibit physical mobility of hosts, logical mobility of agents, or both. LIME adopts a coordination perspective inspired by work on the Linda model. The context for computation, represented in Linda by a globally accessible, persistent tuple space, is represented in LIME by transient sharing of the tuple spaces carried by each...

A method for the direct assessment of the dissolved CO2 concentration in supersaturated water is presented that is based on changes to the physical chemistry of soda lime due to uptake of CO2. The approach is an adaptation of a standard method used for the quantifi cation of soil respiration, and was found to agree with pCO2 measurements made using infrared gas analysis. In this method, the sod...

1. introduction adding lime to increase the geotechnical characteristics of fine-grained soils, to achieve different goals always been done from ancient time. there are many techniques for stabilizing unstable slopes, among them lime treatment is a quick, simple and cost-effective operation that can be incorporated into any unstable slopes. some scientific techniques of soil treatment have been...

This article studies the transient heat conduction in a slab when passing through various sections of the furnace, and focuses on the thickness of the scale layer formed on the slab. The transient heat conduction behavior of a slab in various sections of the heating furnace is analyzed using the Laplace transformation method, including the pre-heating zone, the first heating zone, the second he...

An explicit equation leading to a method for improving furnace efficiency is presented. This equation is dimensionless and can be applied to furnaces of any size and fuel type for the purposes of comparison. The implications for current furnace design are discussed. Currently the technique most commonly used to reduce energy consumption in galvanizing furnaces is to increase burner turndown. Th...

In this paper the influence of the moisture content on the flow characteristics of blast furnace dust is investigated. The flowability of granular material is essential for the design and operation of dust separators, transport equipment and storage silos. Two blast furnace dust samples from different blast furnaces were investigated. The moisture content was adapted for measurement with the sh...

Materials and Methods PG, obtained from TÜGSA^ Fertilizer Plant in Samsun, Turkey, was sieved (particle size, 65 mesh) and then preconditioned with lime milk. Physical and chemical characteristics of raw and lime-preconditioned PG have been published. Aqueous solutions (100 ml) containing Zn ions (50 mg/l) were taken in Erlenmeyer flasks (250 ml) containing lime-preconditioned PG (1 g). These f...

A study was conducted to evaluate the leaching potential of unpaved road materials (URM) mixed with lime activated high carbon fly ashes and to evaluate groundwater impacts of barium, boron, copper, and zinc leaching. This objective was met by a combination of batch water leach tests, column leach tests, and computer modeling. The laboratory tests were conducted on soil alone, fly ash alone, an...

This research has produced foamed glass-ceramics from coal fired power station furnace bottom ash (FBA) and soda-lime-silica glass. The as-received FBA was wet milled with different additions of resultant slurry dried formed into a powder. powder pressed sintered at range temperatures fluxing agent (sodium tetraborate decahydrate), bubble stabilising additive (tri-sodium phosphate) bloating (ca...

a mathematical model of a continuous reheating furnace has been developed to identify the design and operating parameters that significantly affect furnace performance. in this study, the furnace is modeled 3 dimensionally and themonte carlomethod is used to find the overall absorption factor. the overall absorption factor is then used to calculate the energy balance for furnace walls, the gas,...
