electrochemically generated iron can remove most contaminants present in water and wast water, by precipitation, adsorption, electrostatic interaction, and complex formation (generally called electrocoagulation-ec). in the present paper, pretreatment of brackish water having high total hardness (th), alkalinity (a),  and cl¯ ions, is studied by application of a dc-electrical current ot the iron...

nowadays, the environmental impact of transportation project and, especially air pollution impacts, are major concerns in evaluating transportation projects. based on this concern, beside definition of traditional objective functions like total travel time and total investment cost, different type of environmental related function is considered as objective function in urban network design. in ...

This paper considers the problem of scheduling n jobs in the generalized tardiness flow shop problem with m machines. Seven algorithms are developed for finding a schedule with minimum total tardiness of jobs in the generalized flow shop problem. Two simple rules, the shortest processing time (SPT), and the earliest due date (EDD) sequencing rules, are modified and employed as the core of seque...

The flow of a Bingham fluid with inertial terms is simplified into a nonlinear hyperbolic scalar conservation law, regularised by the total variation flow operator (or 1-Laplacian). We give an entropy weak formulation, for which we prove the existence and the uniqueness of the solution. The existence result is established using the convergence of a numerical approximation (a splitting scheme wh...

abstract background: transcranial doppler ultrasonography results have not been previously studied in among iranian sickle cell anemia patients. the present study was performed to evaluate the pattern of intracranial flow velocities among iranian children with sickle cell anemia and the hematological parameters that can affect the time-averaged mean of maximum velocity in major intracranial art...

the purpose of this research was to prepare a floating matrix tablet containing domperidone as a model drug. polyethylene oxide (peo) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (hpmc) were evaluated for matrix-forming properties. a simplex lattice design was applied to systemically optimize the drug release profile. the amounts of peo wsr 303, hpmc k15m and sodium bicarbonate were selected as independen...
