We determined the toxicity of mixtures of ethyl acetate (EA), isopropyl alcohol (IPA), methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), toluene (TOL) and xylene (XYL) with half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) values obtained using human hepatocytes cells. According to these data, quantitative property-activity relationships (QPAR) models were successfully proposed to predict the toxicity of mixtures by multip...

Henriques and Gjaldbaek,l in an article devoted chiefly to a study of the above subject with the form01 titration, find that, when proteins are hydrolyzed with acid, both amino nitrogen and ammonia increase up to a certain point, at which the amino nitrogen attains its maximum. When hydrolysis is continued beyond this point, a transformation of amino nitrogen into ammonia follows, indicating a ...

1,3-Butadiene, BD is produced from C4-cut by extractive distillation. The separation of 1,3-Butadiene from C4-cut is not possible through the conventional distillation processes, because several mixtures have consisted of close boiling points constituents and make azeotrope. The BASF extraction distillation process in BD unit of Jam and Amirkabir Petrochemical Company improves the relative vola...

Molecular dynamics simulations have been employed to investigate the boiling phenomena of thin liquid films adsorbed on a nanostructured solid surface. The molecular system was comprised of the following: solid platinum wall, liquid argon, and argon vapor. A few layers of the liquid argon were placed on the nanoposts decorated solid surface. The nanoposts height was varied keeping the liquid fi...

To achieve both high speed and separation efficiency in the separation of a mixture of nerve and blister agent simulants, a high-aspect-ratio micro-fabricated multi-capillary column (MCC, a 50-cm-long, 450-μm-deep, and 60-μm-wide four-capillary column) was fabricated by the application of the microelectromechanical system (MEMS) techniques. Mixtures of chemical warfare agent (CWA) simulants - d...

In spite of the advantages of zeotropic refrigerant mixtur~" [1], the industrial >tpplications of mixtures have been very limited up to now. The major problem is seen iu the leakages occuring in refrigeration plants and so a possible change in composition. Another disadvantage is that no simple methods for determination of the concentratiou insick the t:ydc i\rc available. This paper pre$ents t...

The accurate prediction of the so-called Departure from Nucleate Boiling is a crucial point in the safety analysis of nuclear reactor cores. Nowadays, the DNB evaluation is based on experimental correlations using numerical results of averaged two-phase flow models. A natural goal is therefore to replace this rough procedure by a direct numerical simulation of the boiling crisis. The physical m...
