The purpose of this work was to study the effect of initial pH and yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae on biogas production from tofu wastewater (TW). The initial pH was varied in ranging of 5 – 9 in substrate without yeast (T5-T9) and with yeast (TY5-TY9). The results showed that optimum initial pH was 8. The maximum biogas was resulted in T8 (275 mL) and TY8 (421 mL). Yeast addition increased tota...

IIn this study, the Electro Coagulation (EC) was used for the removal of acid orange 5 from synthetic wastewater in a batch electrochemical reactor. The impact of the operational variables such as current density, initial pH, time of electrolysis, and initial concentration of the dye was investigated. The results showed that the optimum conditions were obtained at initial pH of 7, curre...

the thermally stimulated discharge (tsdc) current is studied for acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (nbr) loaded with different high abrasion furnace carbon black (haf). tsdc peak appears only for higher haf contents > 60phr (70 and 80phr of haf contents), the tsdc spectra consist of a sharp peak corresponding to a peak temperature tm which is slightly shifted to higher temperature for 70phr ...

in the present paper, an analysis was carried out to investigate effects of radiation on a free convection flow bounded by a vertical surface embedded in a porous medium with constant suction velocity. it was under the influence of uniform magnetic field in the presence of a homogenous chemical reaction and viscous dissipation with constant heat and mass flux. the non-dimensional governing equa...

the relationship between initial population density of rice white tip nematode (aphelenchoides besseyi) and yield was examined on oryzae sativa cv. alikazemi. experiments were conducted in greenhouse, micro-plot and field conditions. seinhorst’s model was used to describe the relationship between nematode population density and crop yield. the parameters of the model, minimum yield (m), constan...

in this research, effect of using hornbeam and beech branch woods in admixture with birch stem wood on their cmp pulp properties. using percentage of branch woods, with 20% constant content for birch stem wood, were 0, 16, 40, 56 and 80 in final mixture of hardwoods. the results indicated that cooking time, to reach 85% yield and under same cooking condition, and also refining quantity, to reac...

water stress decrease water content and water potential between soil and root. therefore, water potential  of plant declines and plant faces with water stress. water stress in different stages of growth can be useful in different aspects. water stress can be practiced from two point of view, increasing water use efficiency (wue) and improving cultural practices. no irrigation in insensitive sta...
