In the present study, a comparison of central composite design (CCD) and Taguchi method was established for Fenton oxidation. [Dye]ini, Dye:Fe(+2), H2O2:Fe(+2), and pH were identified control variables while COD and decolorization efficiency were selected responses. L 9 orthogonal array and face-centered CCD were used for the experimental design. Maximum 99% decolorization and 80% COD removal e...

1. In poultry investigations, the main interest is often to study the effects of many factors simultaneously. Two or three level factorial designs are the most commonly used for this type of investigation. However, it is often too costly to perform when number of factors increase. So a fractional factorial design, which is a subset or a fraction of a full factorial design, is an alternative. Th...

This paper presents an application of the Taguchi method parameter design to optimize the surface roughness, tool wear and cutting force by hard turning process. The Taguchi parameter design method is an efficient method in which response variable can be optimized, given various controls and using fewer experimental runs. Hard turning is the latest trend in all manufacturing industries and it i...

for all industrial processes, modelling, optimisation and control are the keys to enhance productivity and ensure product quality. in the current study, the optimization of process parameters for improving the conversion of isoeugenol to vanillin by psychrobacter sp. csw4 was investigated by means of taguchi approach and box-behnken statistical design under resting cell conditions. taguchi desi...

This work describes the optimization of cryogenic treatment (CT) parameters such as the cooling rate, the soaking temperature, the soaking time, the tempering temperature and the tempering time to maximise the tool wear of high speed steel tools in dry turning of AISI 316 grade austenitic stainless steels by Taguchi method. For this purpose, four iteration of Taguchi design (L16) have been used...

In k 2 experimental design, the classical fractional factorial designs, the Plackett-Burman designs and the Taguchi orthogonal-array designs all require, with few exceptions, n 2 test conditions, for some k n ≤ . Tsao and Wibowo (2005) pointed out that when only m of the k 2 effects/interactions are non-zero, only m test conditions are required for their estimation. Given the identities of m pr...

CNC machine tool is widely used by manufacturing engineers and production personnel to quickly and effectively set up manufacturing processes for new products. This study discusses an investigation into the use of Taguchi Parameter Design methodology for study of CNC turning operation for surface roughness as a response variable. The Taguchi parameter design method is an efficient experimental ...

The specific effect of chemical and physical factors on amidase production from Geobacillus subterraneus RL-2a was investigated using design of experiments (DOE) methodology. The one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) method was used to study the effects of carbon and nitrogen sources on amidase production. Subsequently, optimal levels of physical parameters and key media components, namely temperature, p...
