Electrospinning of nanofibers with cyclodextrin (CD) is attractive because the produced fibers can potentially increase the efficiency of nanofibrous membranes by facilitating the complex formation with organic compounds and high surface area of the nanofibers. In this work, polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanofibers functionalized with β– cyclodextrin (βCD) during an electrospinning process were used ...

Capture of suspended particles by cylindrical collectors is an important mechanism in many aquatic processes, such as larval settlement, suspension feeding, and vegetative filtration. The collector Reynolds number (Rec), based on the collector diameter, typically ranges from 1-1000 in aquatic environments. No analytical solutions exist to describe capture efficiency in this range. Laboratory ex...

Internal combustion in transport vehicles is still one of the biggest contributors to ultrafine particle emissions which have been proven many adverse effects on human health and environment general. To mitigate this problem a variety filters developed along with these whole range models aiming optimise filter performance. This paper reviews wide particulate for vehicular emission control prese...

A high performance clarification system has been discussed for advanced aqueous reprocessing of FBR spent fuel. Dissolver residue gives the cause of troubles on the plant operation of reprocessing. In this study, the new clarification system based on the hybrid of centrifuge and filtration was proposed to get the high separation ability of the component of whole insoluble sludge. The clarificat...
