The loss of fats in the hulls is one main obstacles limiting industrial implementation rapeseed dehulling. reason resides shape outer cotyledons which resemble to hulls’ and make it difficult separate. purpose this study propose a new method for purification hulls. After primary separation by aspiration, mixture kernels passed between pair flat rolls where are flattened stick metal while do not...

Volatile fatty acids (VFAs) are a group of carboxylic considered as building block chemicals. Nowadays, commercial production VFAs is performed using fossil fuel sources. As an alternative, acidogenic fermentation wastes by mixed microbial cultures (MMC) starting to be potential bioproduction process that would replace conventional processes and contribute the circular economy. Nevertheless, mo...

The standard formulation of General Relativity Theory, in the absence a cosmological constant, is unable to explain responsible mechanism for observed late-time cosmic acceleration. On other hand, by inserting constant Einstein's field equations it possible describe acceleration, but suffers from an unprecedented fine-tunning problem. This motivates one modify space-time geometry Relativity. $f...

Anisotropic gold nanoparticles, especially nanostars, are used in many fields of biomedical applications such as sensing, targeted drug delivery, and diagnostic photothermal therapy. In this study, we introduced a novel application nanostars an antimicrobial agent. While spherical nanoparticles have inappreciable effect, exhibit significant antibacterial activity. Besides, the seed-mediated met...

We discuss inflation in models with large extra dimensions, driven by a bulk scalar field. The zero mode of the bulk field plays the role of the inflaton in the brane. It avoids some of the naturalness problems of the usual brane inflation models. Extending the model to include two bulk scalar fields and a bulk potential similar to the hybrid inflation models helps to produce the right predicti...

Nitrite contaminants in freshwater streams, resulting from run-off of fertilizers and livestock farming, are a major ecological challenge. Here, we have developed new family catalysts based on Pd/Al2O3 coated with N-isopropylacrylamide polymer (p-NIPAM) brushes that increase N-N bond formation over N-H formation, promoting nitrogen selectivity by 3-fold, reaching >99% for the containing 20 wt% ...

Model predictive controller is widely used in industrial plants. Uncertainty is one of the critical issues in real systems. In this paper, the direct adaptive Simplified Model Predictive Control (SMPC) is proposed for unknown or time varying plants with uncertainties. By estimating the plant step response in each sample, the controller is designed and the controller coefficients are directly ca...

Invasive species represent unique opportunities to evaluate the role of local adaptation during colonization of new environments. Among these, the Asian tiger mosquito, Aedes albopictus, is a threatening vector of several human viral diseases, including dengue, chikungunya and the emerging Zika feverssometimes been considered as the reflect of a great "ecological plasticity". However, no study ...
