We report a case of traumatic optic neuropathy accompanying a grease gun injury to the orbit. A 48-year-old man with a grease gun injury visited our clinic with decreased visual acuity, proptosis and limited extraocular movement (EOM). Orbital CT revealed a crescent mass of fat in the medial intraconal space. The grease was exuded from a lacerated conjunctival wound. The visual evoked potential...

This paper presents an economic study of a novel thermal fry-drying technology which transforms sewage sludge and recycled cooking oil (RCO) into a solid fuel. The process is shown to have significant potential advantage in terms of capital costs (by factors of several times) and comparable operating costs. Three potential variants of the process have been simulated and costed in terms of both ...

Public concern towards solidification of fat, oil, and grease (FOG) through disposed wastes into the drainage system is an unresolved issue to this day. The use skimmer separate oil water form their mixture a less comprehensive solution. This paper aimed design concept fabricate oil-water separation medium, as well analyse effect different pore sizes wire mesh coating respectively. Water design...

In this paper the authors theoretically evaluated film thickness in a miniature angular contact ball bearing grease and oil lubricated conditions correlated with variation of electrical resistance experimentally determined by using tribometer CETR UMT-2. For considering base viscosity. The rotational speed inner race varied between 1 500 rpm axial load applied on 7000C was 8.1 N. IVR EHD lubric...

Batch scale activated sludge kinetic studies were undertaken for the treatment of pet food wastewater characterized by oil and grease concentrations of up to 21,500 mg/L, COD and BOD concentrations of 75,000 and 60,000 mg/L, respectively as well as effluent from the batch dissolved air flotation (DAF) system. The conducted kinetics studies showed that Haldane Model fit the substrates and biomas...

Smoldering combustion, the slow burning process associated typically with porous solids (e.g., charcoal), is here proposed as a novel remediation approach for nonaqueous phase liquids (NAPLs) embedded in porous media. Several one-dimensional vertical smoldering experiments are conducted on quartz sand containing fresh coal tar at an initial concentration of 71 000 mg/kg (approximately 25% satur...

Five experiments were conducted to determine the effect of fat addition to dry-rolled corn (DRC) finishing diets on subacute acidosis. In Exp. 1, five ruminally fistulated steers (410 +/- 12 kg BW) were used in a 5 x 5 Latin square design. Treatments consisted of 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8% tallow added to a 50% fine-ground corn: 50% dry-rolled wheat basal challenge diet and dosed intraruminally as an ac...

There is no wear and no friction with non-contacting sealing systems. Because of this, there is in principle no lifetime-limit. However, this does not apply for grease-filled labyrinth seals. To seal against particles, the grease inside the gaps of the seal has to bind pollution particles and the grease-filled gap must be opened. If the surfaces of the grease layers in the gaps are saturated wi...
