The compact helical fusion reactor FFHR-b2 is a multipurpose HElical Volumetric Neutron Source (HEVNS) available as the component test facility to divertor and blanket systems. In latest design, three new technologies of HTS (High-Temperature Superconducting) conductor, ceramic pebble divertor, cartridge-type are adopted. Tin-based functional liquid metals (FLMs) including lithium considered wo...

Concentrating solar power (CSP), also known as thermal electricity (STE), is increasing its deployment worldwide. One of the potential ways to decrease costs in CSP plants improvement corrosion resistance between heat transfer fluid (HTF) and storage materials, materials used for pipes, tanks, containers, receivers. This paper assesses literature on this topic (290 publications) through a bibli...

The corrosiveness of biodiesel affects the fuel processing infrastructure and different parts an internal combustion (IC) engine. present study investigates corrosion behaviour automotive materials such as stainless steel, aluminium, cast iron, copper in 20% (B20) 30% (B30) by volume second-generation Jatropha using immersion test. results were compared with petro-diesel (B0). Various propertie...

Several very serious accidents in laboratories have resulted from the use of flammable liquids, such as volatile petroleum distillates, or toluene, to form the bath of a cryostat. In some instances explosions have occurred, and burning liquid has been thrown upon the operator. The purpose of the investigation has been to find liquids that will not burn, that have very low freezing points, and t...

BACKGROUND Hydrofluoric acid (HF) is a small and partially dissociated acid (pK(a) 3.2), able to deeply penetrate into human skin in addition to the corrosiveness of the hydrogen ion (H(+)) and the toxicity of the fluoride ion (F(-)). However, there has been a lack of experimental studies to objectively characterize the results of human HF skin exposure decontamination. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL ...

The effects of the addition of metal salts and metal salt-catalyzed hydrolyzates on yeast cell growth in ethanol fermentation were investigated. Four yeast strains (Saccharomyces cerevisiae WT1, Saccharomyces cerevisiae MT81, Candida sp. 1779, and Klumaromyces fragilis), four metal salts (CuCl2, FeCl3, AgNO3, and I2), two metal salt-catalyzed hydrolyzates (CuCl2, and FeCl3), and a H2SO4-catalyz...

In underground engineering, cement-soil reinforcement beneath a peat soil environment is significant challenge. To investigate the corrosiveness of fulvic acid on and its micro fine structure changes under (PSE), an experiment was conducted to prepare by mixing humic (HA) into alluvial clayey then adding cement make specimen, which soaked in (FA) solution deionized water simulate different work...

Abstract Due to the differences in causes of corrosion, soil corrosion characteristics coastal mountains and areas may be quite different. As a result, there are causes, status service life grounding grids transmission line towers built areas. Based on difference apparent resistivity under area with high this paper selects 12 samples for physical chemical analysis. The analysis results show tha...

Control of water quality changes in the distribution system is an important issue, due to consumer health, and a threat technical infrastructure. Annual monitoring allowed us analyze physical, chemical, biological stability produced two different technological systems. The article examines extent which purification technology affects possibility uncontrolled during its transport (the risk secon...
