Environmentally friendly copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) were prepared with a green synthesis route via Anchusa strigosa L. Flowers extract. These further characterized by FTIR, XRD and SEM techniques. Removing of Gongo red from water was applied successfully using synthesized CuO NPs which used as an adsorbent material. It validated that the eliminate Congo means adsorption, best efficien...

A method is suggested for the computation of the generalized dimensions of fractal attractors at the period-doubling transition to chaos. The approach is based on an eigenvalue problem formulated in terms of functional equations, with a coefficient expressed in terms of Feigenbaum’s universal fixed-point function. The accuracy of the results is determined only by precision of the representation...

Extensive confusion exists and persists in the literature on dynamical systems theory, cosmology and other fields over spectra of fractal dimensions. Entirely different generating functions have been treated as if they should yield identical spectra, or scaling exponents. An uncritical implicit assumption of universality of scaling exponents is made, even though there is no good theoretical rea...

Thermodynamic adsorption properties (differential enthalpy and entropy, spreading pressure and net integral enthalpy and entropy) of cassava flour were determined at 25, 30 and 35°C to provide information about the water and energy requirements for the sorption process. The Guggenheim–Anderson–de Boer (GAB), Peleg and Halsey models were found to adequately describe the sorption characteristics,...

moisture sorption isotherms are useful in food dehydration, storage and packaging. because of the complex food composition, experimental measurements are necessary for prediction of the isotherms. moisture sorption isotherms of thompson seedless raisins were determined at 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 80?c, using the standard static gravimetric method developed by the european cooperation project cost...

In the past it has already been shown that adsorption isotherms of liquid or solid lms are not described completely by the Frenkel Halsey Hill theory. Substrate roughness as well as thermal uctuations have to be taken into account in understanding the adsorption behavior. The inclusion of thermal uctuations into the adsorption theory has already been addressed and proven to provide an explanati...

Fe2O3/ZSM-5 modified with Ce via citrate route (sol-gel approach) is applied for H2S removal in 500–700 ◦C temperature range. The sulfidation activity of Fe2O3/ZSM-5 is appreciably promoted by introduction of Ce plausibly attributed to the synergy of Fe2O3 and CeO2. 5Fe5Ce/ZSM-5 performs the optimal desulfurization behavior at 600 ◦C with sulfur capacity of 1020 μmol S/g, and the sulfidation pr...
