In industrial scale of Gas to Liquid (GTL) process in Fischer-Tropsch (FT) synthesis, a part of reactor outlet gases such as CO2 and CH4 as side reaction products, is usually recycled. In this study, the influence of CO2 and CH4 on the performance and selectivity of Co-Ru/Al2O3 catalyst is investigated by injection of these gases (0-20 vol. % of feed) to the feed stream. The effect of temperatu...

Laboratory facilities use many varieties of contact bedding, including wood chips, paper products, and corncob, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. Corncob bedding, for example, is often used because of its high absorbency, ability to minimize detectable ammonia, and low cost. However, observations that mice eat the corncob lead to concerns that its use can interfere with dietary st...

this study was carried out to evaluate the impacts of organic (sel-plex® selenium yeast) and inorganic (sodium selenite) selenium and vitamin e (d1-α-tocopheryl acetate) on performance and carcass characteristics in broiler chickens. the effect of two types of house temperature and six treatments of feed additives were investigated in a 2×6 factorial experiment at 56 days period with 960 commer...

This research aimed to determine the effect of dietary treatments and age on fattening process in cattle. Thirty-six Ongole crossbred cattles were allotted into two different three groups, with six replications for 24 weeks period, 4 preliminary followed by 20 data collection at Beef Cattle Research Station (BCRS). The experimental design was completely randomized a 2 x 3 factorial. cattle plac...

an experiment with 240 one-day-old lohman male broilers was conducted to investigate the effects of different levels of palm kernel meal supplemented diet with/without enzyme on performance and lactic acid bacteria population of ceca. birds were distributed in 20 experimental units and data were analyzed in a complete randomized design with 2x2 arrangement plus a control diet.the levels of palm...

Objective: The effect of xylanase and fructooligosaccharides on broiler chickens body weight, feed conversion (kg feed/kg weight), caecal volatile fatty acids (VFA) concentration and glycolytic enzymes activity was investigated. Methods: Six hundred birds were divided into three groups and for 35 days were fed basal diet (control) and diets contained 0.1% xylanase and 2% fructooligosaccharides ...

background: coccidiosis is recognized as the parasitic disease that has the greatest economic impact on poultry production. modern poultry production is largely dependent upon anticoccidials. objectives: the aim of the present study was to determine and compare the efficacy of two chemical anticoccidials (clopidol and diclazuril) on oocyst shedding and their probable effects on growth performan...

steam reforming integrated with oxidation of methanol was considered with numerical simulation. the parallel micro-channels with circular cross sections were used. because when the catalytic deposited inside the rectangular micro-channels, it fills up the edges. hence, the approximation of a cylindrical channel is appropriate. effect of this changing in cross section was considered and results ...

Diets containing low-quality durum wheat (716 g/kg) for production of pasta were used to feed male broiler chicks. The efficacy of xylanase supplementation and the impact of xylanase inhibitors on losses in exogenous enzyme activity were analyzed. Birds fed on the basal diet, not supplemented with recombinant xylanases or Roxazyme G, reached a BW of 1,509 g with a feed conversion ratio of 1.77 ...
