platinum extraction from different secondary sources has been experimentally tested by many researchers. in this article, dissolution of platinum in aqua-regia solution from two types of spent catalysts (reforming and nitric acid production) was kinetically studied. a variety of kinetic models for heterogeneous solid-liquid reactions, including homogeneous diffusion model, shrinking core model,...

Aim: To enhance the aqueous solubility of olanzapine by using the Solid dispersion technique. Solid dispersions of Olanzapine were prepared by the dispersion method using using PGS and SSG as carriers. Drug:carrier ratios such as 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:6, 1:8 and 1:10 were tried for optimization. Characterization was done by phase solubility, in vitro release, saturation solubility, permeation, wetta...

DOI: 10.1002/adma.201400270 transfer was repeated several times (typically ∼3) in order to further improve the conductance of the electrodes, therefore forming a multilayer graphene (MLG) stack. An optical graph of the glass substrate with the MLG fi lm on top is displayed in Figure 1 b, showing high transparency. Subsequently, the MLG fi lm was patterned into bottom electrodes (BEs) with width...

background: solid waste management has emerged as an important human and environmental health issue. municipal solid waste workers (mswws) are potentially exposed to a variety of occupational biohazards and safety risks. the aim of this study was to describe health practices and safety measures adopted by workers in the main municipal company in alexandria (egypt) as well as the pattern of the ...

a key parameter for the application of polymer gels in water shut off treatment is the adsorption of polymer gel onto the rock surface. so, the adsorption properties of a nanocomposite hydrogel were discussed in this research by crosslinking of sulfonated polyacrylamide/sodium montmorillonite aqueous solutions with chromium triacetate. the x-ray diffraction patterns indicated that exfoliated ty...

many of insects have re-mating behavoiur during their reproductive period. the re-mating phenomenons have been observed in many ladybirds, too. in current study, the change of proportion of male to female (sex ratio) was used in order to changing of possibility and times of re-mating in hippodamia variegata. in previous studies it has been indicated that males make up about 50% of this predator...

osmotic dehydration, as a minimal processing method, has found increasingly wide prospects during the past few decades. this process involves mass transfer which is commonly modeled by applications of different procedures, mostly based on fick's law. in this research, we approached the modeling process by first obtaining experimental measurement of potato’s solid gain, water loss and moisture c...
