a rhamnolipid–type biosurfactant production by pseudomonas aeruginosa mm1011 was studied in a miniaturized shaken bioreactor. the operational parameters, affecting the biosurfactant production in shaken bioreactors, such as shaking frequency (200, 250, 300 rpm), filling volume (50, 75, 100 ml), and aeration rate (0.2, 0.6, 1 vvm), were optimized using response surface methodology. the optimizat...

environmental pollution by 2,4-dicholorphenol (2,4-dcp), commonly found in industrial wastewater has been a concern for humans over the past 50 years. garden radish peroxidase (grp) can eliminate this poisonous pollutant. the aim of this study was to apply an experimental response surface methodology (rsm) and central composite design (ccd) to optimize grp-based treatment in order to maximize ...

in this study fullerene functionalized using oleum (h2so4·so3), followed by the hydrolysis of the intermediate cyclosulfated fullerene as well as  an oxidizing agent was employed to functionalize the fullerenes. ruthenium was then added by the impregnation method or deposited on the functionalized fullerene. subsequent to this step, response surface methodology (rsm) was used to study the cumul...

in this work, hydrochloric acid is used to remove iron impurities in the bauxite ore contained in the diasporite mineral located in the sari region. the bauxite ore was calcined at different temperatures and times, and then dissolved in a hydrochloric acid solution. after determining the optimum calcination conditions in 1 h at 900 °c, the response surface methodology (rsm) with four factors in...

a hydrothermal method for preparation of nano-size zirconia has been studied to optimize the effective parameters (precursor concentration, temperature and time) using response surface methodology (rsm). the synthesized zirconia samples were characterized through x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscope (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem) analyses to identify mean nano...

Rhodamine B (Rh B) is a toxic dye that is harmful to the environment, humans, and animals, and thus the discharge of Rh B wastewater has become a critical concern. In the present study, reduced graphene oxide-supported nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI/rGO) was used to treat Rh B aqueous solutions. The nZVI/rGO composites were synthesized with the chemical deposition method and were characterize...

this paper presents the findings of experimental investigations into the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and approach angle on the machinability of titanium (grade-5) alloy. also the comparison for the two different cutting materials inserts polycrystalline diamond (pcd) and cubic boron nitride (cbn) with similar tool geometry for similar machining parameters is also carried o...
