A prediction method for rubber curing process has historically received considerable attention in manufacturing process for rubber article with relatively large size. In recent years, there exists increasing demand for simulation driven design which will cut down the cost and time required for product development. In case of the rubber with relatively large dimensions, low thermal conductivity ...

The present studies deals with the adsorption of SO2 by manganese oxide i.e., Pyrulusite ore. Pyrulusite is used as an adsorbent for the present studies. It is found that the percentage removal of SO2 increases with the increase in contact time, follows first order kinetics and a unimolecular layer is formed during the process. The percentage removal of SO2 increases with increase in dosages an...

The nanoparticles of templated crosslinked chitosan, was prepared through using ECH as a crosslinker. The nanoparticles exhibited significantly higher adsorption capacities from the congo red dye than other adsorbent formed without a crosslinker. The adsorption of the dyes on the nanoparticles was affected by the initial pH, dye concentration, and temperature. The results were in accordance wit...

Four cases are presented to illustrate cutaneous burns sustained with the use of zeolite in the treatment of major hemorrhage secondary to combat wounds. Zeolite, a microporous crystalline aluminosilicate granular hemostatic agent, can cause secondary thermal injuries through an exothermic reaction that is likely related to the absorption of free fluid at the hemorrhage site. Understanding of t...

Direct numerical simulations, (DNS), are used to simulate the decay of an isotopic, turbulent, chemically-reacting flow at high temperatures. The independent parameters that govern the physical process are introduced. The different effects from each of the parameters in the flow are explained by using the results from the DNS. It is found that there is a feedback mechanism between the chemical ...
