The effect of solid content (2.5-10%, w/v) and temperature (30-70°C) on the viscosity of tapioca meal from three cassava varieties was investigated in this study. Viscosity measurements were conducted using a digital rotational Brookfield viscometer. The viscosity of tapioca meal increased with increasing solid content and decreasing viscometer speeds. An empirical power-law equation fitted the...

One of the most important and toxic heavy metals in wastewater is chromium. Cr (VI) is released from different industrial operations, including metallurgy, leather tanning, paint, textile industries, chemical manufacturing, pulp production, ore and petroleum refining, metal corrosion, electroplating products etc. Hexavalent chromium is toxic, carcinogenic, probably mutagenic and highly soluble....

Abstract Water treatment of tapioka and tofu wastewater was studied. conducted by coagulation process winged bean ( Psophocarpus tetragonolobus ) seed powder which followed adsorbstion natural active zeolite. The changing turbidity, DO pH during water were investigated. Turbidity tapioca initially 798 FNU, decreased to 57 FNU. Increasing value obtained from 1.20 5.92 ppm. also observed 5.8 6.7....

Dans cet article, nous détaillons et étudions TAPIOCA (distribuTed and AdaPtive IntersectiOns Control Algorithm), un algorithme distribué qui défini les séquences et durées des feux verts dans un système de transport intelligent. TAPIOCA s’appuie sur les données recueillies par un réseau de capteurs sans fil déployé aux intersections afin de décider localement de son programme. TAPIOCA ne se re...

Abstract Cyanide is one of the toxic materials in environment and included as a hazardous waste. One agro-industrial wastewater containing cyanide from tapioca industry. Various methods, including constructed wetlands, can reduce compounds wastewater. Some plants used wetlands technology include Pistia stratiotes C. zizanioides , L. This study aimed to analyse effect L media height on reduction...

Kinetic study for different start up conditions of the anaerobic digestion of wastewater derived from the sago processing from tubers of tapioca (Mannihot utillisema) is discussed. The experiment is carried out with synthetic waste water using a tapered fluidized bed reactor. Mesoporous granulated activated carbon is used as a bacterial support. The kinetic model follows half order kinetics for...

The effects of zinc oxide nanorod on the barrier, sorption isotherm and antibacterial properties of tapioca starch/bovine gelatin Bionanocomposite films were investigated. The nanorod-rich ZnO (ZnO-N) was homogenized by sonication and incorporated into tapioca starch/bovine gelatin solutions at different concentrations (e.g. 0.5, 2, and 3.5% w/w dried solid). Incorporation of 3.5% of nanopartic...

The impact of a tapioca-based artificial diet on the developmental rate, life history parameters, and fertility was examined over five consecutive generations for the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera Hubner (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), a highly polyphagous pest of many agricultural crops. The study showed that when fed the tapioca-based artificial diet during larval stage, larval and pupal de...

The carbon biomass has extensively been used for water/wastewater purification systems. However, pristine matters have less efficiency in practical applications. Conversely, tuning of with biomaterials widely employed. Herein, a sulfur tethered adsorbent chitosan-tapioca peel biochar ([email protected]) composite was successfully fabricated. tapioca as precursor the fabrication matrix. organic ...
