an artificial neural network has been used to determine the volume flux and rejections of ca2+ , na+ and cl¯, as a function of transmembrane pressure and concentrations of ca2+, polyethyleneimine, and polyacrylic acid in water softening by nanofiltration process in presence of polyelectrolytes. the feed-forward multi-layer perceptron artificial neural network including an eight-neuron hidden la...

in this study, a mixed matrix polyethersulfone/iron-nickel oxide nanoparticle nanofiltration membrane was prepared by the solution casting technique. polyvinylpyrrolidone was also used as a membrane pore former in membrane fabrication. the effect of iron-nickel oxide nanoparticles concentration in the casting solution on the membrane structure and performance was investigated. scanning optical ...

background and objective: lactic acid is widely used in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. the major problems associated with lactic acid production are substrate and end-product inhibition, and by-product formation. membrane technology represents one of the most effective processes for lactic acid production. the aim of this work is to increase cell density and lactic acid produ...

This study considers two-stage bilateral matching of teams and scientific technological talents in new R&D organizations proposes a dual-objective method based on prospect theory. The talent institutions is divided into two stages: elimination the first stage selection second stage. In stage, evaluation index team to cost are constructed, dual reference points peer expectation set for evalu...

in this note we consider the notion of intuitionistic fuzzy (weak) dual hyper k-ideals and obtain related results. then we classify this notion according to level sets. after that we determine the relationships between intuitionistic fuzzy (weak) dual hyper k-ideals and intuitionistic fuzzy (weak) hyper k-ideals. finally, we define the notion of the product of two intuitionistic fuzzy (weak) du...

this paper aim to study effect of women's employment on family stability, compare dual-worker family with single-worker family. statistical population of quantitative cross-sectional survey was married in tehran. selected 1736 samples and was analyzed. multi-stage cluster sampling method was used and due to the different economic and social classes of people, selected 50 domains in tehran....

Membrane technology for water treatment is growing due to the increased demand clean and stringent standard quality. Nanofiltration (NF) widely used in membranes lower energy consumption higher flux rates. The application was not limited only treatment, yet NF showed excellent potential solvent nanofiltration application. utilization of MOF materials preparation produce composite has attracted ...

This study investigates the retention mechanisms of three pharmaceuticals-sulfamethoxazole, carbamazepine, and ibuprofen-by nanofiltration (NF) membranes. Laboratory-scale experiments were carried out with two well-characterized NF membranes, with the goal of relating pharmaceutical retention behavior to membrane characteristics, physicochemical properties of the pharmaceutical molecules, and s...

Furfural, found in the lignocellulosic prehydrolyzates at high concentration, is a strong inhibitor of growth and ethanol fermentation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Removal of furfural and concentration of monosaccharides were investigated by using two commercial nanofiltraton (NF) membranes with synthetic glucose-xylose-furfural solution as model. The effects of main operating parameters such a...
