since treatment of landfill leachate is quite complicated, there is a need to develop a system thatis capable of providing high treatment efficiencies. in this study, the treatment performance of a jet - loopmembrane bioreactor (jlmb) operated at different organic loading rates was investigated by observing thechanges in chemical oxygen demand (cod), total kjehldahl nitrogen (tkn) and total amm...

excessive cutting depth during leveling of agricultural land increases power needed by the tractor drawbar and will result in undesirable slippage and excessive strain on the tractor engine.  the result of sustained excess will be the break-down of the tractor. an auxiliary blade depth controller to prevent overloading during leveling was designed, fabricated and evaluated in this study. the sy...

conclusions the analytical sensitivity of lamp and pcr methods, using the designed primers, was 8 times more than any other reported methods. the designed methods are specific and sensitive for detection of h. pylori in different clinical and environmental samples. results the detection limits of the lamp and pcr assay were similar and were 10 fg of pure dna of h. pylori, which is equal to 6 co...

the steps taken in designing a loop reactor for bulk propylene polymerization are discussed. the roles played by several parameters like particle growth factor, catalyst activity and solid fraction on reactor volume at different operating conditions are investigated. at first, based on a fixed production capacity and specific rate of catalyst, reactor volume is determined. next, the length and ...

the mitochondrial dna (mtdna) mutations in mitochondrial coding and non coding regions seem to be important in carcinogenesis. the aim of this investigation was to evaluate coding region (mt-trnaphe and trnapro) and non-coding sequence, mitochondrial displacement loop (mtdna d-loop), in the cancerous and non-cancerous lesions of iranian patients with breast cancer (bc). genomic dna was extracte...

in this paper a new method is introduced and investigated for removing the destabilizing effects of time-delay parameter in control loops. the concept of the method is taken from the knowledge concerning the dynamic behaviour of irrational transfer functions (ir-tf), which is discussed and investigated elswhere in frequency response domain and is explained briefly here. ir-tfs, which are well c...

to enhance the closed loop performance in presence of disturbance, uncertainties and delay a double loop mixture of mpc and robust controller is proposed. this double loop controller ensures smooth tracking for a 3-axis gyro-stabilized platform which has delay intrinsically. this control idea is suggested to eliminate high frequency disturbances and minimize steady state error with minimum powe...
