The purpose of this paper was to review and report the recent advances and progress that have been achieved on the fourteen year old PFGC equation of state. This paper will also discuss the good (pros) and the bad (cons) of this equation of state. Emphasis will be made on the following categories:A. Prediction of the pure component PVT properties1. Hydrocarbons in particular n-alkanes2. Selecte...

In this paper, at first we have formulated the lowest order constrained variational method for the relativistic case of an interacting fermion system at finite temperature. Then we have used this formalism to calculate some thermodynamic properties of liquid in the relativistic regime. The results show that the difference between total energies of relativistic and non-relativistic cases of liqu...

the efficacy of activation methods and coupling were studied in the context of performance in batch and fixed bed binding experiments utilizing cell culture fluids or blood plasma as feedstock. conclusions were drawn regarding selection of solid phase according to pore size, rigidity, ph stability, chemistry of derivation and activation, and gross concentration of immobilized ligand required fo...

this paper deals with the extraction of l-theanine containing aliquat 336 as a carrier and cyclohexane as solvent across bulk liquid membrane. the optimum operation condition are as follows: extraction time of 150 min, initial concentration of theanine in the feed phase is 1.8 g/l, the carrier concentration is 0.5 m, the ion of the receiving phase is 0.2 m nacl of na2hpo4-nah2po4 buffer solutio...

the anticoagulant racemic warfarin is synthesized by the michael addition of 4-hydroxycoumarin with benzalacetone in the present of equimolar amounts of imidazolium based ionic liquids [bmim] bf4 and [bmim] br and other reaction solvents such as h2o, pyridine and ammonia in five different tests. also synthesis of a derivative of warfarin (2-methyl-4-phenyl pyrano [3, 2-c] chromen-5(4h)-one) und...

in this research, production possibility and shelf life of frying margarine had analyzed. in order, the test was done in factorial form and totally random method. tested factors were different kinds of margarine (counteractive effect between type of oil in oil phase (canola) and different moisture (16-8-4%) as the first factor and time of keeping margarine as the second factor. in this margarin...

background: a simple and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry method has been evaluated for the assignment of clonidine hydrochloride in human plasma. methods: the mobile phase composed of acetonitrile-water 60:40 (v/v) and 0.2% formic acid 20 µl of sample was chromatographically analyzed using a repacked zorbax-xdb-ods c18 column (2.1 mmx30...

An apparatus is described that is capable of determining high-pressure vapor-liquid equilibrium, liquid-liquid equilibrium, solid-liquid-vapor equilibrium, vapor-liquid-liquid equilibrium, and mixture critical points and transitions. The device is capable of temperatures to 150 degrees C and pressures to 300 bars (higher with slight modifications). The construction and operation are described i...
