Optimal design of water utilization systems in refineries and process plants.
(1999)
The intensive use of water in refineries and process plants was the object of several studies starting in the early eighties. All these Studies have aimed at the reduction of the water consumption as well as the allocation ...
The synthesis and characterization of chlorinated polyethylene-g-styrene and its application as a blend modifier.
(1980)
The graft products were purified by solvent extraction followed by selective precipitation to remove the styrene homopolymer and unreacted chlorinated polyethylene. Solubility behavior of CPE and polystyrene in various ...
Use of micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration and ligand-modified micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration processes to remove dissolved metals and organic solutes from aqueous streams.
(1997)
The effectiveness of micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (MEUF) and ligand-modified micellar-enhanced ultrafiltration (LM-MEUF) techniques for removal of heavy metal ions and/or organic pollutants from aqueous streams are ...
A global optimization framework for stochastic integrated refinery planning with nonlinear unit models under demand and price uncertainties
(2020-09-11)
The refining industry is facing increased volatility in the global market such as lower economic margins. In this situation, refinery production planning becomes a substantial tool to utilize all potentials to extend the ...
Mechanical properties of human middle ear tissues.
(2007)
Mechanical properties of four middle ear tissues were then employed in a published 3-dimensional finite element model of human ear with an accurate geometric configuration to investigate the transfer function of human ...
THE EFFECTS OF RANDOM AND CONTROLLED LATERAL CONFINEMENT ON SURFACTANT ADSORPTION
(2018-07-31)
Abstract
The effects of temperature and surface roughness on the mass and viscoelasticity of an adsorbed surfactant layer were monitored using the quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D). Adsorption isotherms ...
CARBON-BASED COMPLEX STRUCTURE AND MODEL DEVELOPMENT
(2020)
Growing concerns about the environment and energy crisis prompt a search for effective carbon-based materials due to their low cost, renewability, sustainability, easy accessibility and excellent properties. We study the ...
Molecular theoretical equation of state for applications to selected pure liquids and dense fluids of natural gas, petroleum hydrocarbons and coal chemicals /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1984)
A new equation of state applicable to both polar and nonpolar compounds has been developed. It is modeled after the nonspherical square-well potential. The repulsive pressure is approximated by contributions from the ...
FORMULATION DEVELOPMENT TO OBTAIN THIN FILM COATINGS ON SOLID SURFACES USING ADMICELLAR POLYMERIZATION
(2015-05-08)
Hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties are imparted on solid surfaces to enhance the properties of surfaces. From over a decade several methods have been employed to impart thin film coatings onto surfaces. Apart from ...
Synergistic and Competitive Behavior of Anisotropic Particles and Surfactant Molecules at Fluid Interfaces
(2023-08-04)
Colloidal systems are a common feature in different application domains, from complex underground frameworks such as petroleum recovery and water remediation to industrialized consumer products such as cosmetics and paint. ...
