In this study we evaluate the effectiveness of to...

This work deals with kinetics and chemical equilibrium studies of esterification reaction of ethanol with acetic acid.  The esterification reaction was catalyzed by an acidic ion exchange resin (Amberlyst-15) using a batch stirred tank reactor. The pseudo-homogenous and Eley-Rideal models were successfully fitted with experimental data. At first, Eley-Rideal model was examined for heterogeneous...

indole acetic acid is an important hormone that improved the growth of different plant organs such as the root under normal and stress conditions. as various studies have shown, most of rhizobacteria produce indole acetic acid and thereby contribute to the growth of plants. in this study, different rhizobacteria were isolated from different regions of iran for the assessment of their ability to...
