fertilizer plant waste carbon slurry has been investigated after some processing as an adsorbent for the removal of dyes and phenols using columns. the results show that the carbonaceous adsorbent prepared from carbon slurry being porous and having appreciable surface area (380 m2/g) can remove dyes both cationic (meldola blue, methylene blue, chrysoidine g, crystal violet) as well as anionic (...

Recovery of sugars from cane molasses (i.e. the by-product of sugar industries) is of great interest to industry and academia. The prerequisite for refning cane molasses is removal of pigments and suspended solids present in the molasses. In this work, the utilization of membrane separation for clarifcation and decoloration of cane molasses has been examined. Three oper...

We have not found in the computer graphics literature what we believe may be the simplest algorithm for implementing a 3D rotation with a mouse. We present this algorithm, and observe that it leads to new mathematical realizations of the 3D rotation group and its double-cover, the unit quaternions. We use this to obtain an algorithm for interpolating rotations of a 3D scene that is more efficie...

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES Inflammation is associated with various types of acute and chronic alcohol liver diseases. In this study, we examined whether umbelliferone (7-hydroxycoumarin, UF) ameliorates chronic alcohol-induced liver damage by modulating inflammatory response and the antioxidant system. METHODS Rats were fed a Liber-Decarli liquid diet containing 5% alcohol with or without UF (0.05...

Uron resin, a kind of urea-formaldehyde (UF) resin containing much more uron structure, were prepared. Several modi ed UF resins were obtained from mixing uron resins with normal UF resins as well as synthesizing UF resin with uron resin as raw material. is work demonstrated that the introducing of the uron structure reduced free formaldehyde content of UF resin and formaldehyde emission levels...

Double-walled polyurethane/poly(urea-formaldehyde) microcapsules (PU/UF) are prepared for use in self-healing materials. This modified encapsulation procedure combines two chemistries to form more robust capsule shell walls in a single operation. Robust capsules are formed by this procedure as long as the aromatic polyisocyanate prepolymer is soluble in the core liquid and the core liquid is co...

• Initial release of the MSTDB-TC for thermodynamic modeling molten salt reactor coolant/fuel systems. Available with no-cost license through Oak Ridge National Laboratory's code.ornl GitLab repository. Additional systems and improvements continue to be added future database versions. The Molten Salt Thermal Properties Database − Thermochemical ( MSTDB−TC ) has been developed support fluoride- ...

The typical smelting wastewater is with characteristics of high concentration TDS, conductivity, heavy metal ions, and low COD. ultrafiltration (UF) reverse osmosis (RO) an attractive technology to reclaim reuse this kind wastewater. In work, Coagulation-flocculation-sedimentation (CFS) multi-media filter (MMF) was used as the pretreatment processes. UF, RO (CRO) processes applied advanced trea...

BACKGROUND Uterine fibroids (UF) affect 77% of women by menopause, and account for $9.4 billion in annual healthcare costs. Type-2-diabetes (T2D) has inconsistently associated with protection from UFs in prior studies. To further evaluate the relationship between T2D and UFs we tested for association between T2D and UF risk in a large clinical population as well as the potential differences due...

adsorption is a fundamental process in the physicochemical treatment of wastewaters which industries employ to reduce hazardous organic and inorganic wastes in effluents. in recent years the use of low-cost adsorbents has been widely investigated as a replacement for the currently costly methods of removing heavy metal ions from wastewater. it is well-known that cellulosic waste materials can b...
