background and aim: 2,4-dichlorophenol (dcp) is a compound  generated in a variety of industrial processes and also by chlorine disinfection of water polluted with phenolic compounds . dumping of dcp into the environment and water resources is of great concern because of the compound's intense odor and toxicity. dcp is very soluble and resistant to biodegradability so it cannot be removed ...

Each day, CSX Railway allocates hundreds of empty railcars among hundreds of customer car orders. In 1997, it implemented the US rail industry’s first real-time, fully integrated equipment-distribution optimization system, the dynamic car-planning system (DCP). DCP seamlessly integrates operations research modeling into CSX’s process that assigns empty cars to customer car orders. CSX estimates...

Mineralization of 2,4-dichlorophenol (DCP) was studied by ozone with Mn(2+) as an ozonation catalyst. Laboratory scale semi-batch ozonation experiments were conducted at room temperature. The results showed that trace amount of Mn(2+) accelerated the mineralization of DCP. Total organic carbon removal rate was independent on Mn(2+) dosage at its range of 0.1-0.5 mgL(-1). Dissolved ozone concent...

English × Continental heifers ( = 180) were sourced in 2 loads (219.3 ± 16.0 and 221.4 ± 16.4 kg, respectively) from commercial auction barns to study the effects of feeding dehydrated citrus pulp (DCP) on feedlot performance of newly received heifers. A completely randomized block design was used with BW nested within arrival load and blocked by BW into 3 dietary treatments (36 pens, 5 heifers...

Dried carrot pomace (DCP) may be used as a thickening, coloring agent and also a carotenoid-fiber enriched component in food products formulations. The main objective of this study to investigate the effect of DCP from juice industries waste material on the physicochemical, rheological, nutritional properties of ketchup by partial replacement (0.7-3.5%) of tomato paste and the carboxy methyl ce...

Activated carbon prepared from coir pith (ZnCPC) using ZnCl2 was investigated to find the feasibility of its application for removal of 2,4–dichlorophenol (2,4-DCP) in aqueous solution through adsorption process. Batch mode kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out to evaluate the effects of contact time, initial concentration, adsorbent dose, pH, and temperature. Lagergren, Second order, ...
