The analytical theory of one dimensional, dispersion free miscible displacement of oil by injection gas with nc component has shown that: the MMP is the lowest pressure at which any one of the initial oil, injection gas or crossover key tie lines becomes critical, which means that its length approaches to zero. In this paper, we propose a method for a solving multi component syst...

Multiplexed thermal desorption spectroscopy was used to study the influence of preadsorbed and postadsorbed deuterium on a methanol monolayer on Pd(111). In particular, the effect of atomic deuterium exposure on the reaction products was examined in detail. Preadsorbed deuterium hinders the formation of chemisorbed methanol and favors physisorption of methanol. This leads to a strong reduction ...

Methanol is a versatile chemical feedstock, fuel source, and energy storage material. Many reactions involving methanol are catalyzed by transition metal surfaces, on which hydrogen-bonded methanol overlayers form. As with water, the structure of these overlayers is expected to depend on a delicate balance of hydrogen bonding and adsorbate-substrate bonding. In contrast to water, however, relat...

background: public health burden from hazardous and harmful use of alcohol warrants drastic action throughout the world. although less alcohol related harm is anticipated in islamic countries, unrecorded alcohol remains a considerable concern which needs intelligent and realistic policy options. methods: in a descriptive study, records  of chemically analyzed samples of alcohol obtained from ma...

An aqueous methanol sensor for use in direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) applications is demonstrated; the methanol sensor is built using dispersed single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with Nafion117 solution to detect the methanol concentration in water. The study is aimed at the potential use of the carbon nanotubes array as a methanol sensor for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). The con...

The thermodynamic properties of fluids can be predicted using the global equations of state. Among these thermodynamic properties of fluids, we choose the densities of the liquid and vapor phases. This paper considers the application of the crossover model to the vapor-liquid rectilinear diameter of sulfurhexafluoride. We also present a comparison of the crossover model equation with ...

Recently, we demonstrated that leaf wounding results in the synthesis of pectin methylesterase (PME), which causes the plant to release methanol into the air. Methanol emitted by a wounded plant increases the accumulation of methanol-inducible gene mRNA and enhances antibacterial resistance as well as cell-to-cell communication, which facilitates virus spreading in neighboring plants. We conclu...
