leaching of molybdenite concentrate with hydrogen peroxide in sulfuric acid solution was investigated to determine the effects of reaction time, reaction temperature, h2o2 concentration, h2so4 concentration, pulp density and rotation speed on molybdenum extraction and molybdenite dissolution kinetics, using the taguchi method. from analysis of variance (anova) for molybdenum extraction, the mos...

batch experiments were conducted to study the adsorption behaviors of lead ion (pb2+) onto ferrihydrites prepared using three different procedures which were characterized  by textural analysis (bet). the adsorption removal of pb2+ by the three ferrihydrites (called fh-1, fh-2 and fh-3, respectively) were compared, and fh-3 shows fast adsorption kinetics as well as high adsorption capacities, t...

synthetic dyes are among the most common contaminants of the environment. therefore, the aim of this study was investigation the removal of basic blue 41 (bb41) and methylene blue (mb) from industrial effluents by useing raw and modified rice stems. in this study raw and modified rice stems treated chemically with citric acid (ca) and were used to explore the potentiality of rice stems for remo...

in this work, experimental kinetics data of methane hydrate decomposition at temperatures ranging from 272.15 to 276.15 k and at pressures ranging from 10 to 30 bars were modeled by using chemical affinity. this model proposed a macroscopic model which is independent of any intermediate mechanism like heat or mass transfer. the results show there is good agreement with experimental data. also t...

afinite element model is developed for simulation of the curing process of a thick axisymmetric rubber article reinforced by metal plates during the molding and cooling stages. the model consists of the heat transfer equation and a newly developed kinetics model for the determination of the state of cure in the rubber. the latter is based on the modification of the well-known kamal-sourour mode...

In this paper, we review the construction of low-dimensional manifolds of reduced description for equations of chemical kinetics from the standpoint of the method of invariant manifold (MIM). MIM is based on a formulation of the condition of invariance as an equation, and its solution by Newton iterations. A review of existing alternative methods is extended by a thermodynamically consistent ve...

In the present study, the kinetics of biodiesel production through transesterification of Brassica carinata oil with methanol in the presence of Potassium Hydroxide is investigated by kinetic Monte Carlo simulation. The obtained results from simulation agree qualitatively with the existing experimental data. The kinetics data for each step of suggested mechanism are confirmed by simulation. By ...

An experimental method to follow the evolution of the precipitation phenomena in the metal-matrix composites using the thermoelectric power measurements is described. It is shown that one can follow the kinetics of the precipitation during aging. The influence of the reinforcement on the precipitation kinetics is studied in case of an aluminum 6061- SiC, composite (where SiC, represents SiC par...

To model the reactive solid phase contribution, knowledge of the solubility and mass transfer should be extracted from empirical measurements. Often unknown factors may complicate the interpretation of the data. In this paper we consider an example and present a practical procedure that allows one to avoid the difficulties. A simplified model is derived for the mass transfer and kinetics. This ...

This review traces the history and logical progression of methods for quantitative analysis of enzyme kinetics from the 1913 Michaelis and Menten paper to the application of modern computational methods today. Following a brief review of methods for fitting steady state kinetic data, modern methods are highlighted for fitting full progress curve kinetics based upon numerical integration of rate...
