In order to solve energy crisis, the search for alternative fuel is extensively important. Alternative fuels selected should be renewable, sustainable and eco-friendly. In India, kerosene is also used as a fuel in cooking stove. Kerosene contains impurities like sulphur, aromatics and hydrocarbons, which causes environmental degradation. In this experimental investigation, blends of ethanol and...

The increasing accumulation of plastic and industrial biomass wastes, as well the declining reserves petroleum an energy source, have become significant topics discussion. Therefore, this research aims to determine alternative sources in form fuel derived from cracking a mixture Polypropylene (PP) palm fiber (SKS) waste. It also quantity quality products. process with catalyst feed ratio 1:10 t...

A 6-year (19701975) retrospective study of kerosene poisoning in children admitted to ~the General Hospital, Medan, is presented. The total number of admission was 10,64.3, 124 of which were kerosene poisoning. Tho mortali'ty was 4.8%. In North Sumatera the incidence of kerosene poisoning along with the consumption of kerosene showed an increasing trend. The male to female ratio was 75 by 49 (3...

Quantitative determination of adulterant in petroleum products viz diesel, petrol and kerosene is great challenge to police, revenue and forensic department. The literature methods are tedious, time consuming with large scope for errors. Viscosity measurement of known admixtures of diesel and kerosene at 40C give linear plot. The viscosity comparisons of unknown sample with known admixtures dir...

The present article describes the potential utility of derivative ultraviolet (UV) spectrophotometric technique to detect petroleum products (gasoline, kerosene and diesel) in fire debris residues. Derivative UV spectra of these petroleum products were recorded in their neat state, and compared with those obtained from fire debris samples in order to distinguish them. Derivative UV spectrophoto...

an increase in energy prices will decrease the fossil fuel consumption; on the other hand, the cost-push will encourage technology improvement for firms and households. these changes will affect the emission level.this paper studies the changes of yearly pollutant emissions after an energy price reform in iran. we apply a computable general equilibrium model which consists of 7 energy goods (el...

BACKGROUND Burn injuries are among the most devastating injuries seen in the emergency units. The epidemiology of this injury varies from one part of the world to another. This is a 3-year report in an attempt to provide information on the current epidemiology of burns in this center. METHOD Patients admitted into the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital, with burn injuries were prospectiv...

according to the global fuel crisis, it seems necessary to use alternative fuel instead of gasoline. since the natural gas is cheaper, have higher frequency than gasoline and less pollution, it is a suitable fuel. many efforts have been done in order to replace gasoline with natural gas. one of the methods is to inject natural gas and gasoline fuel simultaneously and to use the benefits of both...

Crude oil is a naturally generated material comprising a very complex mixture of coexisting hydrocarbons and polar organic compounds. It is found in geologic formations below the Earth's surface and recovered mostly through oil drilling. It is refined and separated by distillation according to the various boiling points of the components resulting in a number of products, such as petrol, kerose...
