the essential oil of rosa damascena mill. is one of the most valuable and important base material in the flavor and fragrance industry. it has also some medicinal properties. the aim of this study was to determine the correlation between anthocyanin and essential oil content of damask rose petals in 6 important damask rose growing in some locations of iran i.e. meimand, layzangan, shiraz eram b...

Modern lubricants face the task of providing lubrication over a wide range of temperatures, and extreme engine temperatures can exceed the thermal degradation limits of many engine oils. Soft metal additives can extend the life of engine oils at very high temperatures by providing solid lubrication to contacting surfaces. We report a new silver–organic complex which contains a high metal conten...

This paper is the second in a series that examines grease lubrication mechanisms and failure in rolling element bearings. The aim of the work was to understand the grease condition changes during use and the relationship to lubrication performance and failure. R0F bearing tests were carried out with two lithium hydroxystearate greases and the effects of the temperature, the speed, and the addit...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Very low grid power penetration in some urban areas has led to telecoms companies investing massively in the deployment of diesel generators (DGs). These deployments have led to diesel and waste oil spill at base transceiver station (BTS) sites during maintenance cycles, impacting the environment and human activities. The objective of this study is to...

Biomaterials are low cost,easily transportable and biodegradable with time.Few exampls are cellulose,chitoson and gelatin. Here we used cellulose as a base material for designing box type sensor using Comsol Tool for the detection of bio-analytes such as engine oil,ethnal,gasoline and mercury.Results shown that differential deflection and resonant frequency as found among tested analytes.Highes...

Unsaturated, nitrogenated and sulfured compounds may reach undesirable levels in lubricant base oils, requiring hydrotreatment (HDT) at high temperatures and pressures. HDT processes are well known for their high capital and operational costs due to the use of hydrogen, compressors and multistage heterogeneous reactors. Process costs are thus highly dependent on the applied conditions. An overs...

and a decreasing supply (Golbitz, 1999), suggest that oil productivity of soybean should be improved. Previous Protein meal and oil are the two commodities produced from research indicated that seed oil concentration is consoybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] that give the crop its value. Increasing seed concentrations of either or both may add value. Objectives trolled by multiple genes with addit...

-Animal bones were carbonized at a temperatures of 800-900C .The carbonized sample was reduced to particle size of 75μm and then chemically activated at 500C using orthophosphoric acid as activating agent. The mixture was separated by centrifugation. The activated carbon was then added (1:8 v/w) to the frog oil for purification. Physicochemical properties and individual fatty acid profiles were...

In this study, the transesterification of palm oil with methanol for biodiesel production was studied by using CaO–ZnO as a heterogeneous base catalyst prepared by incipient-wetness impregnation (IWI) and co-precipitation (CP) methods. The reaction parameters considered were molar ratio of methanol to oil, amount of catalyst, reaction temperature, and reaction time. The optimum conditions—15:1 ...
