in this research, kinetics of carbothermic reduction of molybdenite in the presence of different amounts of sodium carbonate has been studied. mixed powders consisting of molybdenite, graphite and sodium carbonate with three mole-ratios of 1:4:2,1:4:3 and 1:4:4 were mechanically activated for 40 hours. the results of x-ray diffraction on activated samples showed that no reaction occurrs in diff...

Model-free isoconversion methods are the most reliable methods for the calculation of activation energies of thermally activated reactions. A large number of these isoconversion methods have been proposed in the literature. A classification of these methods is proposed. Type A methods such as Friedman methods make no mathematical approximations, and Type B methods, such as the generalised Kissi...

Dynamic TG analysis under nitrogen was used to investigate the thermal decomposition processes of 10 types of natural fibers commonly used in the polymer composite industry. These fibers included wood, bamboo, agricultural residue, and bast fibers. Various degradation models including the Kissinger, Friedman, FlynneWalleOzawa, and modified CoatseRedfern methods were used to determine the appare...

A. Mitovski, N. Štrbac, D. Manasijević, D. Živković, Lj. Balanović, University of Belgrade, Technical Faculty in Bor, Serbia, M. Sokić, A. Daković, ITNMS, Belgrade, Serbia The paper presents the results of experimental investigation of the chalcopyrite-pyrite concentrate oxidation in the air. Characterisation of the initial sample and oxidation products was done by ICP-AES, XRD, EDXRF methods. ...

Purpose: In the present study the incompatibility of FLM (fluvoxamine) with lactose in solid state mixtures was investigated. The compatibility was evaluated using different physicochemical methods such as differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. Methods: Non-Isothermally stressed physical mixtures were used to calculate the ...

Exhausted coffee residue (ECR) and husk (CH) are potential feedstock for energy production through thermochemical biochemical conversion processes. Kinetic study of ECR CH is essential the design optimization different In this study, four iso-conversional methods were employed in estimation activation (EA) pre-exponential factor (A). The used includes Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO), Kissinger-Akahira-S...

In this study, the combustion of olive byproducts was investigated using TG-FTIR technique. Different types biomass were considered: twigs, leaves, olive-mill waste from two-phase decanting method, and wastewater three-phase system. The reaction regions, ignition, burnout temperatures at different heating rates determined TG/DTG analysis thermogravimetry results. Comprehensive combustion, burno...
