The interfacial tension (IFT) between aluminium and cryolite melts containing different salt additions (AlF3, NaF, Na2SO4) has been measured during electrolysis by the capillary depression method. The technique is based on the measurement of the capillary depression occurring when a capillary, which is moved vertically down through the molten salt layer, passes through the metal/salt interface....

In this paper, the effect of NaCl and Na2SO4 on the biodecolourization of reactive brilliant red K-2BP by a Halomonas sp. GYW (EF188281) was investigated in details. The decolourisation efficiency and the oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) change were explored during the decolourization process. The results from sequencing batch tests showed that Na2SO4 influenced the decolourization efficienc...

We examined whether dietary acid that increases net acid excretion (NAE) without measurably decreasing plasma pH or total CO2(tCO2) causes net acid retention. Control rats drinking distilled H2O were compared with those drinking 40 mM (NH4)2SO4, 40 mM Na2SO4, or drinking Na2SO4and given aldosterone (Na2SO4+ Aldo) to increase NAE without dietary acid. Systemic plasma tCO2 increased in Na2SO4+ Al...

Nickel laterites cannot be effectively used in physical methods because of their poor crystallinity and fine grain size. Na2SO4 is the most efficient additive for grade enrichment and Ni recovery. However, how Na2SO4 affects the selective reduction of laterite ores has not been clearly investigated. This study investigated the decomposition of laterite with and without the addition of Na2SO4 in...

The studies include the results and discussion related with reaction of Fe2O3 with Na2SO4 in presence of SO2 (g) at 800 and 900 C. The iron oxides are produced by the oxidation of iron base alloys in many industrial operations. The metal oxide undergoes certain high temperature chemical reactions in presence of a gas (such as SO2) and molten salts (say Na2SO4). The thermo-gravimetric studies h...

Negative interactions of the acidity and S content of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) have not been quantified. The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of dietary S, dietary acidity, and their interactions on growth, feed efficiency, ruminal H2S concentration, and apparent nutrient digestibility in lambs fed DDGS-based diets. To neutralize acidity, the DDGS was u...

A basal diet (0.8 g/kg dNa) was formulated in which each of the two sources (NaHCO3 and Na2SO4) were supplemented in such a way to attain four levels (1.7, 2.6, 3.5, and 4.4 g/kg) of total dNa, respectively, under 4×2 factorial arrangement. Eight dietary treatments were replicated four times, with 40 birds in each replicate (n = 1,280). The diets supplemented with Na2SO4 to attain higher levels...

phenylalanine dehydrogenase (phedh; ec 1.4.1.20) is an important enzyme of amino acid dehydrogenases family that increasingly used as a valuable biocatalyst in neonatal screening kits and synthesis of l-phenylalanine. the goal of this literature was to find a suitable purification method for recombinant bacillus badius phedh by practical comparison between chromatographic and polyvinyl pyrrolid...

Quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa Willd.) is an Andean crop with an edible seed that both contains high protein content and provides high quality protein with a balanced amino acid profile in embryonic tissues. Quinoa is a halophyte adapted to harsh environments with highly saline soil. In this study, four quinoa varieties were grown under six salinity treatments and two levels of fertilization, and t...
