Pistachio green kernel, is obtained by removing the red testa of around the whole kernel. In this study, the suitable peeling conditions for removing the testa of the kernel were determined using hot water in five termperature levels of 75, 80, 85, 90, and 95°C and diffetent hot water immersion times of 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 minutes in riped and unripe samples. Quality factors including the number...

in this work, we studied the effect of carboxylic acid on the rheological properties of a high-alumina cement mortar (ch45) produced by the algerian firm refractal.the investigated properties are setting time, water consumption, electrical conductivity, ph, density and the compressive strength. the results show a setting time of about 200 min for the acid free, 180 min with 0.1 % of carboxylic ...

the aim of this study was to determine the concentration of free residual chlorine in the effluent at different concentrations of chlorine injection, between 50 to 350 ppm, at the ph levels of 6, 6.5 and 7 and the effect of chlorination on ph, electrical conductivity and the concentration of total dissolved solids in drinking water and effluent. the results showed that the concentration of free...

We study simply laminated microstructures of a martensitic crystal capable of undergoing a cubic to orthorhombic transformation of type P ! P 0 . The free energy density modeling such a crystal is minimized on six energy wells that are pairwise rank-one connected. We consider the energy minimization problem with Dirichlet boundary data compatible with an arbitrary but xed simple laminate. We rs...

The one-dimensional free energy model for ferroelectric materials developed by Smith et al. [28—30] is generalized to two dimensions. The two-dimensional free energy potential proposed in this paper consists of four energy wells that correspond to four variants of the material. The wells are separated by four saddle points, representing the barriers for 90◦-switching processes, and a local maxi...

Constructed wetlands have not been commonly used in Vietnam due to the lack of information in the selection of proper types of constructed wetlands, type of reeds, design parameters and performance efficiency, in tropical climates. This paper focuses on Canna generalis, which is a common reed and easy to grow both in water and wet land conditions. Two kinds of hybrid constructed wetlan...
