Phase equilibria involving gas hydrates are of importance in natural gas recovery and carbon dioxide sequestration. Due to high equilibrium pressures twoand three-phase equilibria for gas hydrates containing systems have been computed using equations of state and van der Waals and Platteeuw model for fugacity of guest components in gas hydrates. So far the inhibition effect has been accounted f...

in this research, process asymmetric polyetherimide hollow fiber membranes using ethanol (0, 2 and 4 wt%) as non-solvent additive in the polymer dope via phase inversion method were fabricated. aqueous solution of 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidine (nmp) (90%) was applied as a bore fluid to avoid inner skin layer formation and water was used as the external coagulant. the morphology of fabricated membranes...

The expected episodic or intermittent star formation histories (SFHs) of gas rich dwarf irregular galaxies (dIrrs) are the longstanding puzzles to understand their whole evolutional history. Solving this puzzle, we should grasp what physical mechanism causes the quiescent phase of star formation under the very gas rich condition after the first starburst phase. We consider that this quiescent p...

Non-reactive gas-phase pollutants such as benzene diffuse into indoor furnishings and leave behind a unique materialphase concentration profile that serves as a record of the past gas-phase indoor concentrations. The inverse problem to be solved is the diffusion equation in a slab such as vinyl flooring. Using knowledge of the present material-phase concentration profile in the slab, we seek to...

A theoretical study at the B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p) level was performed on the tatumerization of 7H-purine-2, 6-diamine into 9H-purine-2, 6-diamine. Such a tautomerism can take place via three different pathways namely A, B, and C. The energetic results associated with the gas phase reveal that pathways A, B, and C display a very high activation Gibbs free energy of 45.1, 68.6 and 48.9 kcal/mol, resp...

A novel computational fluid dynamics-population balance model (CFD-PBM) for the simulation of gas mixing in activated sludge (i.e., an opaque non-Newtonian liquid) in a bubble column is developed and described to solve the problem of measuring the hydrodynamic behavior of opaque non-Newtonian liquid-gas two-phase flow. We study the effects of the inlet position and liquid-phase properties (wate...

In this research, Quantum-mechanical calculations were performed at the HF method with the 6-31+G*basis set and at the B3LYP method with the 6-31+G* basis set in the gas phase and five solvents such as water, DMSO, methanol, ethanol and dichloromethane at six temperatures. According to these theoretical results of IR, we extracted thermo chemical parameters such as enthalpy (∆H Kcal/mol), Gibbs...

Le Chatelier's principle is used as a very simple way to predict the effect of a change in conditions on a chemical equilibrium. . However, several studies have reported the violation of this principle, still there is no reported simple mathematical equation to express the exact condition of violation in the gas phase reactions. In this article, we derived a simple equation for the violation of...
