It is a long time that the Simulated Annealing (SA) procedure is introduced as a model-free optimization for solving NP-hard problems. Improvements from the standard SA in the recent decade mostly concentrate on combining its original algorithm with some heuristic methods. These modifications are rarely happened to the initial condition selection methods from which the annealing schedules start...

the reaction of ch3o2 radicals with acetaldehyde on the solid surface of nh4no3 has been studied in a flow capillary reactor at low pressure and room temperature. the experiments were performed using epr spectrometer combined with the kinetic method of radicals freezing. peroxy radicals revealed an oscillation complex behavior during the process regarding to the phenomenon of radicals multiplic...

traditional systems for olefin/paraffin separation, like low-temperature distillation, are expensive and very energy consuming, and therefore, alternative separation methods are desired. facilitated transport membranes are new tools for this separation to be substituted in large scale separation of olefin-paraffin mixtures. to design a membrane process for olefin-paraffin separation, equilibriu...

the aim of this study was to determine the optimum mixture ratios for composting separated cattle manure and pepper plant residues. five 127 liter laboratory-scale bioreactor were used to investigate of separated dairy manure addition on the composting process of greenhouse pepper plant residues. cattle manure is considerably rich in nitrogen. however, composting with cattle manure alone is not...

production of thermostable alkaline protease in tray bioreactor for solid state fermentation is a unique process which may lead to an economical approach for production of enzyme from agricultural waste or low cost substrate. in solid state fermentation using tray bioreactor, several agricultural residues such as rice bran, sugarcane bagasse, wheat bran, barely bran, corn meal and corn husk wer...

.hot metal gas forming of tubes can be used in various industries such as automotive and aerospace industries. in this process tube is formed at elevated temperatures, by using gas instead of fluid pressure. lower required pressure and low power are its advantages in comparison to hydroforming process. in this paper, a hot metal gas bulging process of an aluminum alloy tube has been investigate...
