The effect of chemical reactions on the blast initiation of detonation in gaseous media has been investigated in this paper. Analytical method is based on the numerical solution of onedimensional reactive Euler equations. So far, analyses on the blast initiation of detonation have modeled the combustion process as a one-step chemical reaction, which follows the Arrhenius rate law. Previous stud...

this study was aimed at investigating the photocatalytic degradation of ciprofloxacin (cip) antibiotic in aqueous solution using immobilized zno nanoparticles on glass plate. x-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy were applied to characterize the nanoparticles. to do so, the zno nanoparticles were synthesized through the chemical precipitation method and we...

Chemical kinetics, also known as reaction kinetics, is the study of chemical processes’ rates. Chemical kinetics includes investigations into how different experimental conditions can influence the speed of a chemical reaction, and yield information about the reaction's mechanism and transitional states, as well as the construction of mathematical models that can describe the characteristics of...

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) causes many health issues related to Indoor Air Quality (IAQ). The indoor air quality improvement has been instituted by various organizations based on the concentration level of different pollutants. Though VOCs in indoor air has various adverse health effects and are primary reason for sick building syndrome, there are only few abatement technologies currentl...
