background and objectives: lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp bulgaricus is widely used in dairy industries as a starter for yogurt production. this study was designed using response surface methodology (rsm) in 12 batch ph-controlled cultures of lactobacillus delbrueckii sub-ssp. bulgaricus for determining the effect of temperature and ph on the biomass production of a native strain of l. bulgaricu...

In the last tenyears, the use andapplications ofmathematicalmodellinghave increased inchemistry and food science and technology. However, it is still common to find researchers using the ‘one at a time’ approach to test and select variables to develop and optimize products and processes. In this regard, the objectives of this review are to provide some statistical information related to mathema...

I. Six 45 kg pigs with re-entrant ileal cannulas were used in two 3 x 3 Latin-square design experiments to study the site of absorption of protein and amino acids. Semi-purified diets containing soya-bean meal (SBM), rapeseed meal (RSM) or no protein source (protein-free) were offered at the rate of I kg dry matter/d. 2. Flow-rates of ileal contents for 24 h collection periods, corrected for re...

background: application of potassium ferrate is a chemical oxidation approach used for water and wastewater treatment. the aim of this study is to apply central composite design (ccd) and response surface methodology (rsm) to optimize potassium ferrate consumption in the treatment of wastewater from carpet industries. methods: samples in this experimental study were collected from wastewater, o...

Alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetate is essentially an irreversible and second order reaction. Industrial importance of the reaction product, sodium acetate, necessitate for process improvement in terms of maximum conversion and economical usage of raw materials. Statistical design of experiments was utilized to enhance conversion in both batch and plug flow reactors.A full two level factor...

Response surface methods (RSM) provide superb statistical tools for design and analysis of experiments aimed at process optimization. At the final stages of process development, RSM illuminates the sweet spot where high yield of in-specification products can be achieved at lowest possible cost. It produces statistically-validated predictive models and, with the aid of specialized software, resp...

Many researchers have developed algorithms to predict welding parameters. The variety of welding types is broad because the confine mixture of pressure and temperature could be selected. This paper introduces a response surface methodology (RSM) for optimization and prediction of the influence of Ar and CO2 gases and electrical current on tensile strength of St52’s gas metal arc weld (GMAW) lin...

In presented paper a design model is developed which is used to find an optimal design space in order to improve precision and accuracy of reversed 3D models. Significant parameters and their mutual effects in scanning process are recognized with the help of Design of Experiments (DOE) principles, and in second step recognized significant parameters are also optimized using the RSM (Response Su...
