CuCl and Cu are active phases for CH 3 Cl cracking, a side reaction of the methylchlorosilanes direct synthesis. In presence black carbon simulating coke, is reduced leading to Cu, inactive synthesis, chlorinated coke.

The effects of coke mineralogy on reactivity under conditions representative the blast furnace were studied. Coke samples reacted index (CRI) like (1100°C, 100% CO2) and at higher temperatures atmospheres designed to replicate lower in furnace.

in this research, the effects of oxygen injection during the induration process were studied in order to improve the quality specifications and increase the rate of production of the iron oxide pellets. several experiments were carried out in palletizing pilot plant in different conditions of oxygen injection. the results suggested that if only the extra oxygen was injected into the furnace in ...

cost reduction is one of the methods applied for improving the productivity of organizations. in productivity literature, particularly in nonparametric methods, cost reduction related methods are regarded as input oriented models. this paper presents a supply chain management (scm) model in which purchasing iron ore and coke from different resources, along with production and distribution of st...

a study was made of the coking of a commercial fresh sulfide ni-mo/al2o3 catalyst in a fixed-bed reactor. the catalyst was coked using different coke precursors in the gas oil under accelerated conditions at temperatures of 400 to 450°c to yield different deactivated catalysts containing 2-20 wt% c. two cases were studied; crushed catalyst without diffusional resistance and extruded pellets wit...

The clonal selection mechanism and vaccination strategy of immune system are introduced into particle swarm optimization algorithm in this paper, in order to enhance the ability of global exploration of PSO, avoiding getting into local optimum and improving the accuracy and convergence speed of BP networks. The global Cauchy mutation operator and local Gauss mutation operator are used to improv...

Human decision-making is remarkably susceptible to commercial advertising, yet the neurobiological basis of this phenomenon remains largely unexplored. With a series of Coke and Pepsi taste tests we show that patients with damage specifically involving ventromedial prefrontal cortex (VMPC), an area important for emotion, did not demonstrate the normal preference bias when exposed to brand infor...
