The effect of prior exercise on pulmonary O2 uptake (VO2p) and estimated muscle capillary blood flow (Qm) kinetics during moderate-intensity, field-based running was examined in 14 young adult men, presenting with either moderately fast (16 s<tauVO2p<30 s; MFK) or very fast VO2p kinetics (tauVO2p<16 s; VFK) (i.e., primary time constant, tauVO2p). On four occasions, participants completed a squa...

background: investigating the performance of naturally operated treatment plants may be due to the fact that they cannot be operated as desired, or that they should be modified to achieve good performance e.g. for nutrients removal. the advantage of kinetic coefficient determination is that the model can be adjusted to fit data and then used for analyzing alternatives to improve the process. th...

The objective of this study was to determine the performance of modified commercial powdered activated carbon (MCPAC) in removal of ammonia from aqueous solution. The effects of adsorbent dosage (0.5–1.5 g/L), ammonia concentration (100–200 mg/L), pH (3 to 9) and contact time (2 to 120 min) were examined. In this study, experiments were performed based on Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The...

Kinetic models are the most important tools for the prediction and evaluation of the flotation circuits performance. In order to determine the kinetic order and rate of flotation of a Gilsonite sample, flotation experiments were conducted using the combination of Gasoline-Pine Oil, and one test without any collector and frother. The pulp density was 10% and the experiments were carried out in b...

background: the efficacy of nh4cl-induced activated carbon (nac) was examined in order to adsorb rr198, an azo reactive model dye, from an aqueous solution. methods: the effects of ph (3 to 10), adsorbent dose (0.1 to 1.2 g/l), dye concentration and contact time on the adsorption efficiency were investigated. results: the results showed that the removal of dye was highest at a solution ph of 7 ...

Objective(s): The quantitative calculation of release data is more facil when mathematics come to help. mathematically modeling could aid optimizing and amending the delivery systems design. Aim of this study is to find out the isoniazid release kinetic. Methods: In this work degradable temperature sensitive dextran-hydroxy ethyl me...

The kinetic of photo oxidative decolorization of C.I. Acid yellow 23 (AY23) was investigated in UV/ process. The semi-logarithmic of the concentrations of AY23 versus irradiation time were linear, suggesting pseudo-first order reaction. A simple kinetic model is proposed which confirms pseudo- first order reaction. The results indicate that the apparent reaction rate constant is a function of l...
