The Nano Spray Dryer B-90 offers a new, simple, and alternative approach for the production of drug nanocrystals. In this study, the preparation of steroid nanocrystals using the Nano Spray Dryer B-90 was demonstrated. The particle size was controlled by selecting the mesh aperture size. Submicrometer steroid particles in powder form were successfully obtained. These nanoparticles were confirme...

In this research a fuzzy model is developed for a rotary dryer. It is applied to the pilot plant rotary dryer located in the Control Engineering Laboratory at Oulu University. Firstly, a literature review looking at the current situation of fuzzy modelling and comparison of different methods is done. One modelling method is then applied to the building of the model from data. The rule parameter...

Among available technologies, disk and paddle dryers are often encountered in France to process municipal sewage sludge but their thermal design is still a question of know how rather than scientific knowledge. From experiments performed on an industrial Naratherm paddle dryer and the literature, a simple model has been developed. The dryer is divided into two parts depending on the sludge cons...

conclusions the results of the present study suggest that the presence of fusobacterium species in periodontal pockets is an important risk factor for halitosis. results in total, 26% (n = 13) and 8% (n = 4) samples were positive for fusobacterium species in the halitosis and control groups, respectively, with f. nucleatum present in the greatest proportion in both groups. halitophobia was sign...

background and aims. previous researches, conducted mostly on extracted teeth, have shown that efficacy of calculus removal decreases with increasing pocket depth, but there is still a lack of clinical studies concerning the correlation be-tween residual calculus and varying pocket depths. the objective of the present clinical study was to assess the efficiency of mechanical tooth depuration by...

a mixed solar dryer with a specific mechanism to vary the tilted angle of collector, is utilized to fulfill all tests. the efficiency of the dryers is low because of various reasons such as heat loss of air in an open flow circuit. getting air back toward the air inlet of dryer can increase the efficiency of dryer and decrease drying process period. a new mechanism considered for dryer which co...

In this paper, water content from celery, corn, and sour cherry were removed through tunnel, fluidized bed, and fluidized bed with microwave dryers. One day before performing the experiments, the fruits were put into a refrigerator and were ground into slices with average dimensions of 5×8×8 mm. For each experiment, 40 g of the samples were inserted in dryers. Moisture content in the samples wa...
