Fine grain products are harvested in two manual and mechanized forms. Nowadays, common combine harvesters are used, but fine grain products such as Rapeseed, Sesame and Sorghum cannot be harvested with conventional heads of combine harvesters due to the excessive grain loss in the head of the combine. Therefore, the necessity of design and fabricating machines and heads of combine harvesters be...

background and objectives: thyroid gland because of its superficial location is amenable to direct physical examination. clinical assessment of thyroid lesions by means of physical examination, thyroid scans and ultrasonography is not completely reliable. fine needle aspiration cytology (fnac) is the most cost-effective, safe and an initial diagnostic test in the pre-operative evaluation of thy...

The role of fine needle biopsy and cytological diagnosis in the preoperative evaluation of thyroid nodules is reviewed on the basis of the current literature as well as the authors' personal experience. Technical aspects and guidelines for reporting thyroid samples are discussed in some detail. The main emphasis is on diagnostic pitfalls, those which may lead to a false-negative diagnosis, to a...

Oxidative scrubbing is used to remove H2S from gas streams. A key problem in regeneration of the absorbent is the removal of fine particles of sulphur from the suspension of the scrubbing liquid. Dispersions of ultra-fine bubbles have been called "colloidal gas aphrons" or aphrons for short. These dispersions have interesting properties and it was found that they have particular advantages in t...
