The electrical double layer surrounding solid particles suspended in water is assumed to be due to a difference in the concentration of the oppositely charged ions of an electrolyte in the enveloping film (i.e. the film of water which adheres to and moves with the particle in an electrical field) and the opposite film. This difference in concentration is generally ascribed to a preferential ads...

This paper presents the experimental as well as the simulated performance studies on the transcritical CO2 heat pumps for simultaneous water cooling and heating; effects of water mass flow rates and water inlet temperatures of both evaporator and gas cooler on the cooling and heating capacities, system COP and water outlets temperatures are investigated. Study shows that both the water mass flo...

This paper analyzes the dependence of properties turbid flow on dispersion composition and concentration solid particles. The article presents features transfer river suspended solids water in pressure stations, that is, effect distribution kinematic dynamic parameters particles hydraulic transport.

supersonic separators have found extensive applications in dehumidification of natural gases since 2003. unlike previous studies, which have investigated the inlet conditions and nozzle geometry of supersonic separators for pure fluids, the present study employed a combination of momentum, heat, and mass transfer equations along with virial equation of state (eos) to inspect the effect of inlet...

Terrigenous loading into enclosed water bodies has been blamed for eutrophic conditions marked by massive algal growth and subsequent hypoxia due to decomposition of dead algal cells. This study aims to describe the eutrophication and hypoxia processes in a semi-enclosed water body lying near a big metropolis. Phosphorus mass balance in a small inlet, Ohko Inlet, located at the head of Hiroshim...

We designed and fabricated a centrosymmetric material where one may be able to consider an efficient quadratic nonlinear interaction. We followed a solid phase-supported organic synthesis methodology to covalently bind a large number of highly nonlinear molecules to the surface of polystyrene nanospheres. Such chemically modified optically nonlinear latex spheres, when suspended in water, are s...

Pharmaceutical industry represents a range of industries with operation and processes as diverse as its product. Hence effluents coming from pharma industries vary from industry to industry. Thus it is almost impossible to describe a typical pharmaceutical effluent because of such diversity. Waste water is generally evaluated in terms of temp, pH, Total suspended solid (TSS), BOD, COD, Oil & gr...

The natural resources of Himalayas in terms of hydro power generation are not only crucial for the Himalayan states of India, but very important for the whole country. These states seem to be keen in exploiting their vast hydro electricity potential for net revenue earning. However, due to weak geological conditions and steep slopes these rivers carry a huge quantity of sediment with them. The ...

in order to understand the importance of particle size and agglomeration for nano-eco-toxicological studies in aquatic environments, the acute toxicity of two different types (suspended powder and colloidal) of silver nanoparticles (agnps) were studied in alevin and juvenilerainbow trout. fish were exposed to each type of agnps at nominal concentrations of 0.032, 0.1, 0.32, 1, 3.2, 10, 32, and ...

The Karnafully is one of the most important rivers due to its profound influence on water chemistry and sediment characteristics. The present study intended to assess the quality of water and sediment from intertidal zone of this river in respect to the pollution index. Seasonal water and sediment samples were collected during four seasons (Monsoon, post-monsoon, winter, and pre-monsoon) of 201...
