Today, by using half of the oil reserves of the world, natural production of oil has decreased drastically. Gas and water injection for maintaining reservoir pressure is not responsive for oil production.At first, we dispersed silica nanoparticles in low salinity and after two weeks, there was no change in its stability. Then we mixed the nanoparticles in low salinity. After a while, we found o...

During the rice harvesting season in Thailand, large amounts of fresh paddy are sent to rice mills immediately after harvesting due to a lack of proper farm storage space. At certain levels of moisture content, rice grains may generate hazardous gases, which can replace oxygen (O(2)) in the confined spaces of underground rice mill pits. This phenomenon has been observed in a fatal accident in T...

The accuracy and stability of the atmospheric wet path delay as measured by the microwave radiometer onboard ERS-2 is crucial to altimetric measures of sea-level change. In this study a GPS receiver on an oil platform in the North Sea is first used to quantify the ERS-2 radiometic wet path delay for the period 1999-2003. The observed discrepancies between the GPS results and the radiometer moti...

Background: Enzymatic corn wet milling (E-milling) is a process derived from conventional wet milling for the recovery and purification of starch and co-products using proteases to eliminate the need for sulfites and decrease the steeping time. In 2006, the total starch production in USA by conventional wet milling equaled 23 billion kilograms, including modified starches and starches used for ...

the effects of wet-feeding of five levels of corn steep liquor (csl) on broilers performance and relative internal organ weights were examined. three hundreds 1-d old broilers (ross 308) were randomly allocated to one of the six dietary treatments in a completely randomized design with 5 replications of 10 chicks per pen. the dietary treatments were: 1. dry-fed control, no add water nor csl in ...

BACKGROUND Wet swallows cause a greater esophageal contraction amplitude and duration than dry swallows. In Chagas' disease there is a reduction in amplitude of esophageal contraction but we do not know if the difference between wet and dry swallows is seen in the disease. AIM To compare the esophageal contractions after wet and dry swallows in patients with Chagas' disease. METHODS We meas...

background : composite resin restorations may have a short lifespan due to the degradation of resin–dentin interface. ethanol wet bonding technique may extend the longevity of resin–dentin bond. the purpose of this one year randomized clinical trial was to compare clinical performance of two adhesives with ethanol wet bonding technique. materials and methods: this randomized clinical trial was ...
