• PEBA thin-film composite hollow fiber were fabricated by coating. Pervaporation tests carried out with membranes of different active layer thicknesses. Good performance for recovery butanol from ABE mixtures. Membrane support has a relevant contribution to mass transfer resistance. This work reports the continuation previous efforts recover (acetone-butanol-ethanol) fermentation process perva...

Here we report the fabrication of hollow-core cylindrical photonic bandgap fibers with fundamental photonic bandgaps at near-infrared wavelengths, from 0.85 to 2.28 microm. In these fibers the photonic bandgaps are created by an all-solid multilayer composite meso-structure having a photonic crystal lattice period as small as 260 nm, individual layers below 75 nm and as many as 35 periods. Thes...

one of the most important concerns in tehran municipal landfill is the production of leachate and its potential for water resources pollution, this study was undertaken to examine feasibility of biological and physico/chemical treating of high-strength landfill leachate that was collected from tehran municipal landfill. average cod of the leachate in aerobic submerged membrane bioreactor is 68...

a simple, inexpensive and efficient method was used for extraction and determination of fexofenadine and levocetirizine with three–phase hollow fiber liquid-phase microextraction and high-performance liquid chromatography. several parameters influencing the extraction recoveries such as the nature of organic extraction solvent, ph of donor and acceptor phases, stirring rate, extraction time and...

anew and effective electrospinning method has been developed for producing aligned polymer nanofibers. the conventional electrospinning technique has been modified to fabricate nanofibers as uniaxially aligned array. the key to the success of this technique is the creation of a rotating jet by using a cylindrical collector in which the needle tip is located at its center. the unique advantage o...
