oxidative stability of walnut (juglansregia l.) was evaluated over a period of 1 year storage in various conditions. the whole walnuts, walnut kernels, walnut chopped kernels, walnut kernels packaged in polyethylene (pet) under vacuum and poly propylene (pp) contain of co2 were kept in a normal condition (temperature, 19-30˚с and relative humidity (rh), 35-45%). the whole walnuts and walnut ker...

Removing the green husk and drying walnut are one of the most important steps in post-harvest processing of walnut. Therefore, it is need to precisely identify a walnut’s shell. Physical and mechanical properties of shell in the four Persian walnut cultivars/genotypes were studied. This study investigated the mechanical properties of a walnut’s husk and calculated the required energy in the pro...

The mechanical and physical characteristics have great impact on the shell shucking of walnut. Taking the shucking force as the evaluation indicator, the effects of mechanical and physical characteristics, which include the loading orientation, loading rate, moisture content and walnut partical size, on walnut shucking were investigated by means of single factor test. The results show that: 1) ...

A series of activated carbons were prepared by physical steam gasification under identical experimental conditions to compare the pore development from almond tree pruning chars and walnut shell activated carbons. The results obtained showed that steam gasification yields microporous carbons in both cases, and the rise in temperature causes an increase of the pore volumes of the activated carbo...

polyvinyl ester green composites were synthesized with walnut shell powder (wsp) by in-situ polymerization technique. the green composites have been evaluated for mechanical properties such as tensile strength, tensile modulus and hardness. sliding wear loss, specific wear rate and coefficient of friction were investigated by using computerized pin-on–disc machine at normal applied loads of 20,...

An agricultural waste (walnut shell) was undertaken to remove Cu(II) from aqueous solutions in batch and continuous fluidized bed processes. Walnut shell found be effective reaching 75.55% at 20 200 rpm, when pH of the solution adjusted 7. The equilibrium achieved after 6 h contacting time. maximum uptake 11.94mg/g. isotherm models indicated that highest determination coefficient belongs Langmu...

this study was carried out to investigate the important characteristics in some cultivars/genotypes of persianwalnut (juglans regia l.), black walnut (j. nigra l.), and walnut inter-specific hybrids: paradox (j. hindsii × j.regia) and royal (j. hindsii × j. nigra) in kamalshahr research station in karaj in 2011-2012. in the study,vegetative vigor was evaluated based on trunk cross-sectional are...
