The influence of Mo particle size on the catalytic activity and product selectivity of alkalized MoS2 nanocatalysts has been investigated. Nanocatalysts are prepared using a microemulsion technique with water-to-surfactant ratios of 1-12. Three different techniques, including XRD, TEM, and hydrogen chemisorption were used to determine the molybdenum average particle size and their activity and ...

background and objectives: lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus is widely used in dairy industries as a starter for yogurt production. this study was designed using response surface methodology (rsm) in 12 batch ph-controlled cultures of lactobacillus delbrueckii sub-ssp. bulgaricus for determining the effect of temperature and ph on the biomass production of a native strain of l. bulgaricu...

using the mixed solvents, (water +ethanol + propanol), the solubility of cdf2 was determined byevaporating method at 25° c. the results showed that the sollbility, s, of cdf2 decreases bydecreasing the dielectric constant of the mixed solvent .once the solubility of cdf2 was determined,the concentration solubility product, ksp(c)=4s3, was calculated .furthermore ,by estimating the meanactivity ...

cell formation problem mainly address how machines should be grouped and parts be processed in cells. in dynamic environments, product mix and demand change in each period of the planning horizon. incorporating such assumption in the model increases flexibility of the system to meet customer’s requirements. in this model, to ensure the reliability of the system in presence of unreliable machine...

in this study, the effect of environmental concern, attitudes and behaviors of the university students on the environmentally conscious purchasing behavior was investigated with the help of structural equation model (sem). sem is an effective data analysis tool that expresses the complicated causative relations between the latent variables. in this study, we collected the data from 400 univers...

(In the 3rd of April 2008) and in the morning of (16 April 2008), the temperature reached - 6 ο C in some pistachio gardens of Kerman County especially in Sirjan. The coldness was so high that affected not only on the open flowers but also on bud endings and lop growth, So that the next year product was endangered, as well. In order to study the effect of some treatments and decrease the damage...

the solubility of kno3 in the mixed solvent (water 85%+methanol 15%) were determined by using solvent evaporating method at different temperatures (25, 30, 40, 50, 60 ;c). in addition the equilibrium constant of ion pair formation, kip, for k+no3 – ion-pair on the basis of fuoss contact ion pair model was calculated. upon choosing the extended debye-hückel model for estimating the mean activity...

The cell growth and product formation kinetics of anaerobic biohydrogen production by mixed anaerobic cultures was investigated using unstructured models in the present study. They described the realtionship between biomass growth and product formation in the hydrogen production process. Experimental results show that the Logistic model and LeudekingPiret model could be adopted to describe the ...

background : the aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of water ozonation on disinfection by-product formation. methods : experiments were carried out on samples taken from tajan river, mazandaran province, iran. samples of the pre-filtered raw water and from the 3.5-l water tank reservoir (wt) were analyzed for uv-254 absorbance, dissolved organic carbon (doc), hs and non-hs, chlor...
