using low-cost feedstocks such as rendered animal fats in biodiesel production willreducebiodieselexpenditures. one of the low-cost feedstocksfor biodiesel production could be the fatextracted from poultry feathers producedin slaughterhouses abundantly. this paper describes a new andenvironmentally friendly process for developing biodiesel production technology from feather waste producedin pou...

In the current research, polyvinylchloride based mixed matrix heterogeneous anion exchange membranes were prepared by a solution casting technique. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles were also utilized as inorganic filler additive in the membrane fabrication. The effect of TiO2 nanoparticles concentration in the casting solution on the membrane physico-chemical properties was studied. Membrane wate...

Among enzymes, lipases have been widely investigated because of the numerous industrial applications. In this study, optimization of lipase production by Aspergillus niger in solid state fermentation from rice bran as solid substrate was investigated. The optimal conditions with the aid of central composite design (CCD) under response surface methodology (RSM) were obtained.  In the analysis of...

copolymerization of ethylene and propylene was investigated using a 4th generation phthalate ziegler-natta catalyst in normal hexane in a buchi reactor. the effects of different mole fractions of [al]/[ti], [si]/[al] and various amounts of hydrogen on productivity and weight percent of ethylene on the product, were studied. in the copolymerization reactions, tri-isobutyl aluminum (tibal) was us...
