Technology audit process of nitro mixture preparing process for benzene and toluene nitration using non concentrated nitric acid

Detection of benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylenes (BTEX) using toluene dioxygenase-peroxidase coupling reactions.

We have developed a simple, whole-cell bioassay for the detection of bioavailable benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, and xylenes (BTEX) and similar compounds. A genetically engineered E. coli strain expressing toluene dioxygenase (TDO) and toluene dihydrodiol dehydrogenase (TodD) was constructed, enabling the conversion of BTEX into their respective catechols, which were quickly converted into co...

Ignition Process in a Non-Homogeneous Mixture

Development of an Information Technology Audit Process Quality Framework

The objective of this long term study will be to determine factors that may influence the IT audit process and develop a model that can be used to improve process quality. Using focus groups of internal auditors at one large, health care products and services company we identify factors rated as critical by one or more of these groups and develop a first draft of a quality model. This model cou...

Effect of Acid Treatment of Carbon Nanotubes on Their Adsorption Capacities of Benzene and Toluene

Toluene and benzene were eliminated using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). In order to investigate influence of acid treatment on the MWCNTs adsorption capacities, the MWCNTs were functionalized by nitric acid (10 M) under reflux conditions for 2 h. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy were employed to confirm the formation of functional groups on the nanotubes su...

Design Process of Traction Motor having Concentrated Non-overlapping Windings

This study deals with the demands of traction motor design process in where not only the application set some design limits but also the control method set its own boundaries. It is a demanding task to design a traction application in where the driving speed varies from low speed up to field weakening area. Permanent Magnet (PM) synchronous reluctance motors are often used in traction applicati...
