The Pseudo-Smarandache Function is part of number theory. The function comes from the Smarandache Function. The Pseudo-Smarandache Function is represented by Z(n) where n represents any natural number. The value for a given Z(n) is the smallest integer such that 1+2+3+ . . . + Z(n) is divisible by n. Within the Pseudo-Smarandache Function, there are several formulas which make it easier to find...

This work investigated for the first time role of adsorption in photocatalytic degradation methylene blue and Orange II dyes presence 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)-modified TiO2 nanomaterials. It has been demonstrated that decrease a detrimental effect on activity. APTES/TiO2 photocatalysts were successfully prepared by solvothermal modification pressure autoclave, followed heat treatmen...

This article investigates the ignition of low-exothermicity reactive porous solids exposed to a maintained source of heat (hotspot), without oxygen limitation. The gas flow within the solid, particularly in response to pressure gradients (Darcy’s law), is accounted for. Numerical experiments related to the ignition of low-exothermicity porous materials are presented. Gas and solid products of r...

BACKGROUND Neonatal resuscitation is a common and important intervention, and adequate ventilation is the key to success. In the delivery room, positive pressure ventilation is given with manual ventilation devices using face masks. Mannequins are widely used to teach and practise this technique. During both simulated and real neonatal resuscitation, chest excursion is used to assess tidal volu...

ginger waste material (gwm) has been utilized as adsorbent for removal of hazardouspatent blue vf (pbvf) dye from aqueous solution. batch adsorption experiments wereperformed as a function of ph, contact time, dye concentration, adsorbent dose and temperature.the optimum ph required for the maximum adsorption was found to be 2. the experimentalequilibrium adsorption data were tested using langm...

co2/ch4 gas separation is a very important applicatable process in upgrading the natural gas and landfil gas recovery. in this work, to investigate the membrane separation process performance, the gas permeation results andco2/ch4 separation characteristics of different prepared membranes (via blending different molecular weights of polyethylene glycol (peg) as a modifier with acrylonitrile-but...

Carbon dioxide flooding is considered to be one of the most effective enhanced oil recovery methods for the light oil reservoirs. Depending on the operating pressure, the process might be miscible or immiscible. Minimum miscibility pressure (MMP) is the most important parameter for assessing the applicability of any miscible gas flood for an oil reservoir. The miscibility condition is determine...

the kinetic of photo oxidative decolorization of c.i. acid yellow 23 (ay23) was investigated in uv/ process. the semi-logarithmic of the concentrations of ay23 versus irradiation time were linear, suggesting pseudo-first order reaction. a simple kinetic model is proposed which confirms pseudo- first order reaction. the results indicate that the apparent reaction rate constant is a function of l...

Hydrates are crystalline compounds similar to ice, with guest molecules like methane and ethane trapped inside cavities or cages formed by the hydrogen bounded framework of water molecules. These solid compounds give rise to problems in the natural gas oil industry because they can plug pipelines and process equipments. Low dosage hydrate inhibitors are a recently developed hydrate control tech...

in the present study, advanced oxidation treatment, uv/ was applied to decolourisation of acid orange 8 (ao8). the uv radiation was carried out with a 15 w low-pressure mercury lamp. kinetic model for the decolourisation of the dye was developed based on experimental results and known chemical and photochemical reactions. the observed kinetic reaction constant was determined and correlated as a...
