An experimental study of the phase inversion behavior of liquid-liquid dispersion has been conducted in a spray extraction column for systems of toluene / water, n-hexane/water, CCl4/water, toluene /water + glycerol (25 % wt), toluene + CCl4 (25 % wt) / water and toluene / acetic acid (5 % wt)/water. The effects of physical properties, mass transfer and column geometry...

the aim of this study was to establish and optimise a simplified method of halved grain culture, in order to utilise it to evaluate the ability of isolated sinks (developing wheat grains) in sucrose uptake and conversion (defined by sink strength) under unlimited source conditions. both sucrose uptake and starch synthesis increased linearly over the incubation periods used in this study. a ...

Gravity data inversion is one of the important steps in the interpretation of practical gravity data. The inversion result can be obtained by minimization of the Tikhonov objective function. The determination of an optimal regularization parameter is highly important in the gravity data inversion. In this work, an attempt was made to use the active constrain balancing (ACB) method to select the...

1. A high-protein yeast cake, based on ovalbumin and lactalbumin, and containing 200 g sucrose/kg was baked and toasted as previously described by Block, Cannon, Wissler, Steffe, Straube, Frazier & Woolridge (1946). This caused a severe reduction in its protein quality for rats, and in its fluorodinitrobenzene (FDNB)reactive lysine content. The damage appeared to be caused by inversion of sucro...

Inversion of magnetic data is an important step towards interpretation of the practical data. Smooth inversion is a common technique for the inversion of data. Physical bound constraint can improve the solution to the magnetic inverse problem. However, how to introduce the bound constraint into the inversion procedure is important. Imposing bound constraint makes the magnetic data inversion a n...
