in this study, microwave-assisted solvent extraction (mase) was used to recover oil residues from pomace olive using acidic hexane. results obtained demonstrated that oil extraction yield increased with time, the amount of acetic acid in hexane and power radiation. for both radiation powers used (170 and 510w), the optimal extraction time and most interesting content of acetic acid in hexane ar...

This acid was synthesized soon after its discovery in alcaptonuric urine by Baumann & Fraenkel (1894) from 2:5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde by successive conversion to the alcohol, chloride and nitrile, followed by hydrolysis. The overall yield was very poor, due mainly to side reactions occurring in the conversion of the chloride to the nitrile. Schoepf & Winterhalder (1940), who studied systematical...

simple and corresponding impacts of adding acidic improvers (lactic acid , acetic acid and citric acid ) on bread staling has been researched twice in 3 levels( 0%, 0.25 % and 0.5 %) by factorial experimental method .there was an orthogonal comparison between the two treatments (acidified treatments and sourdough groups) in the second stage. the effect of lactic acid on bread staling was signif...

Antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects of anthocyanins are abundant in berberry fruits suggesting that they may have beneficial effects on inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). The present study was carried out to investigate the anti-colitic effect of Berberis vulgaris fruit extract (BFE) compared to berberine chloride (BEC) and corticosteroids using an animal model of acetic acid induced exper...

In this research, the effects of important parameters, including the molar ratio of acetic acid to sulfur(S) , sonication time, temperature, and hydrogen the molar ratio of peroxide to sulfur on the performance of ultrasound-assisted oxidative desulfurization were studied using the response surface method (RSM). To this end, a model fuel containing n-decane and dibenzothiophene at a concentrati...

Hydrolyses of acid derivatives (e.g., carboxylic acid chlorides and fluorides, fluoro- and chloroformates, sulfonyl chlorides, phosphorochloridates, anhydrides) exhibit pseudo-first order kinetics. Reaction mechanisms vary from those involving a cationic intermediate (SN1) to concerted SN2 processes, and further to third order reactions, in which one solvent molecule acts as the attacking nucle...

In this study, esterification reaction of different carboxylic acids (Acetic acid, Palmitic acid, Oleic acid) with ethanol was investigated by ZnO, Al2O3-ZnO mixed oxide and phosphotungestic acid (10 %wt) immobilized on the Al2O3-ZnO mixed oxide. The heterogeneous catalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, FE-SEM and EDX techniques. Optimum yield was achieved by using 10% HPW/Al2O3-ZnO as the be...

Acetic acid was separated from a dilute mixture using a commercial polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) membrane.  Intrinsic separation characteristics of the membrane were studied as a function of temperature.  The degree of membrane swelling decreased marginally with increase in feed temperature. At 25oC the maximum degree of swelling was found out to be 46.3%, which reduced to 39.5%...
