The sources of occurrence of various pollutants from chemical process industries and there harmful effects have been highlighted. Typical composition of wastewater from various sources presented. The methods of treatment of wastewater briefly discussed. Special attention has been paid to the biological treatment mentioning the drawbacks of the traditional methods. The relative advantages of var...

It is widely believed that the chemical master equation has no rigorous microphysical basis, and hence no a priori claim to validity. This view is challenged here through arguments purporting to show that the chemical master equation is exact for any gas-phase chemical system that is kept well stirred and thermally equilibrated.

We present calculations of surface growth in laser-focused nanostructure fabrication. We show that theoretical predictions of the structure pro le's shape depend sensitively on the model used to describe the growth, and also on the parameters chosen within the model. This sensitivity illustrates that growth e ects can play a major role in laser-focused atomic deposition, and also suggests that ...

The objective of this research was to evaluate several different pressure probe techniques used to measure the pressure fluctuations in a fluidized bed, to determine the effect of bed parameters on the power spectrums from the corresponding pressure fluctuations, and to develop a second-order model that describes the power spectrums of these pressure fluctuations. The motivation for this work i...

This paper focuses on the determination of the solid circulation of a CFB gasification system with a dual fluidized bed concept and the distribution of the solid hold up at different fluidization conditions. A mathematical model of the riser was designed and implemented in a model of a dual fluidized bed system. This model contains routines for calculation of each section of the dual fluidized ...
