Most of the slaughterhouses in the state of Kerala (India) do not have proper and effective effluent treatment facilities. Collection of blood and separation of manure to reduce the very high organic load of the effluent are also not practiced. As a result, large volumes of extremely complex effluents with high content of fat, grease, and protein are discharged into land or water bodies causing...

This paper deals with the coefficient of determination screw connection friction between thread and matrix. The was measured using a laboratory device an M20 without any grease and, subsequently, plastic added (CX80 silicone, lithium, copper grease). When is added, in threads heads limited consistently retained. tightening by torque, which represents prevailing assembly method standard screwing...

This work studies the performance of three phosphonium-based ionic liquids ([P6,6,6,14][BEHP], [P6,6,6,14][TCM] and [P6,6,6,14][DEC]) when used separately as additives on thermal conductivity, stability tribological properties two non-additised greases (a lithium-based a calcium-based grease). The main results confirmed that improved both greases. Only mixtures G1 + 5%[P6,6,6,14][BEHP] G2 5%[P6...

This work aimed to produce hydrogen (H₂) simultaneously with pollutant removal from biodiesel wastewater by photocatalytic oxidation using a thermally-treated commercial titanium dioxide (TiO₂) photocatalyst at room temperature (~30 °C) and ambient pressure. The effects of the operating conditions, including the catalyst loading level (1-6 g/L), UV light intensity (3.52-6.64 mW/cm²), initial pH...

The energy of a radio wave is reduced through the dispersion, the refraction and the absorption because the medium transferring the vibration of a radio wave is the seawater. In the end the reduced energy of a radio wave causes the reduced transmitting length for communication, the long postponed communication and the frequent error. The subsea communication for the marine environment monitorin...

This article investigates the influence of frequency on field-dependent non-linear rheology magnetorheological (MR) grease under large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS). First, LAOS tests with different driving frequencies were conducted MR at four magnetic fields, and storage loss moduli 0.1, 0.5, 1, 5 Hz compared to obtain an overall understanding frequency-dependent viscoelastic behavior gr...

Field-scale bioremediation of oily sludge in prepared beds was studied at Shengli oilfield in northern China. The influence of manure, coarse sand, sawdust, a specialized microbial preparation and greenhouse conditions on the efficiency of removal of oil and grease was evaluated. After bioremediation for 230d, oil and grease content fell by 32-42gkg(-1)dry sludge in treated plots, indicating re...
