Effects of water on the catalytic performances of MoVTeNbO catalyst in the oxidation of propane to acrylic acid have been investigated at different reaction temperatures and different steam contents. Obtained results show that both catalytic performances and catalyst structure are very sensitive to the presence of water vapor in the reaction feed. Presence of water induces some structural modif...

dissolution of phosphate by p solubilizing microorganisms is dependent on the environmental conditions and the composition of the medium culture. present study conducted to investigate the effect of two fungal species, moisture content and rock phosphate content on water soluble phosphate (wsp), ph and changes of medium weight with time. two fungi aspergillus niger and one isolate from rock pho...

an essential characteristic for high performance inherently hydrophobic membranes such as microporous high density polyethylene (hdpe) membranes is to have a hydrophilic surface. in this project, wet chemical functionalization as a facile and effective method was developed to give a hydrophilic property to hdpe membranes using polar functional groups. kclo3, k2cr2o7 and kmno4 were selected as o...

barbus sublimus, described by coad and najafpour (1997) as a new species, was retrieved first from the aala rood, a river in khuzestan province, southwestern iran. in our latest sampling a population of this species was found, for the first time, in fahlian rood, a river in a different water basin, in fars province, southwest of iran, where no specimen of the species was collected in previous s...

Inadequate hole cleaning can lead to many problems in horizontal and directional wells. In this work, we tried to investigate the cutting transport phenomenon by an experimental directional drilling simulator, considering the differences between the operational and experimental conditions. The inclination, fluid type (water, foam, viscous, and dense), rotary speed (0 and 110 rpm), nozzle bit si...
