The molecular associations in the binary mixtures of (methanol/solvent), (ethanol/solvent) and (propanol/solvent) were studied using NMR, FTIR and VLE data at different temperatures. The activity coefficients as the most important quantities representing the mixture deviation form ideal behavior were evaluated by using various association models to express the physical and chemical contribution...

Introduction: Application of point-of-use (POU) drinking water treatment units is expanding across the world due to the increased concerns about the adverse health effects of water pollution. The main treatment systems of these devices are mostly activated carbon and nano-filter or reverse osmosis. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of using POU units on phy...

the present study was conducted to investigate the effects of ensiling pistachio by-product (pbp) on nutrient value, some physical and chemical parameters. fresh pbp was ensiled into a trench silo for three months and simultaneously amount of pbp was dried in front of the sun. chemical composition, buffering capacity, water holding capacity, protein fractionation according to cornell net carboh...

In consideration of physical and chemical properties of pure substances, speed of sound is one of important quantity which can used to calculate many of other thermo-physical properties such as isothermal compressibility, Joule-Thomson coefficient, isobaric heat capacity and etc. These thermo-physical properties are the main parameters in industrial and chemical processes. Development of accura...

long term monitoring programme on brine shrimp ( artemia sp.) is being carried out by the environment agency, abu dhabi, united arab emirates (ead) with the prime purpose of understanding the population dynamics, ecology and habitat requirements of artemia at al wathba lake, situated within al wathba wetland reserve, which is an artificial wetland near abu dhabi city. the present study, being a...

Management systems influence soil quality over time. A randomized block design in 2 (tillage system) 3 (crop rotation) factorial arrangement was laid-out to evaluate the impact of tillage and crop rotation (2002–2007) on soil quality. Conventional tillage and No-till were factored into continuous corn, corn–soybean, and corn–soybean–wheat–Cowpea systems. Ten soil cores were collected at 0–7.5, ...
