After the nuclear accidents of Three Mile Island and Chernobyl the world nuclear community made great efforts to increase research on nuclear reactors and to develop advanced nuclear power plants with much improved safety features. Following the successful construction and a most gratifying operation of the 10MWth high-temperature gas-cooled test reactor (HTR-10), the Institute of Nuclear and N...

Introduction: Disposal of the wastewater produced in the paper and paperboard industry without the refining process can add substances to the environment, which are harmful to humans, environment, and other organisms. With regard to process efficiency, the current methods used in wastewater treatment of this industry are economically unjustifiable. Therefore, in this research, the electrolysis ...

A pulsed electric field (PEF) reactor that has two flow paths separated by a membrane was constructed for sake pasteurization. The treatment and cooling solutions were supplied to the in contact with ground electrode high-voltage electrode, respectively. characteristics of microbial inactivation continuous operation novel PEF investigated using NaCl solution containing Escherichia coli as model...

Electric discharge phenomena in metal-solvent mixtures are investigated utilizing a high field density, sealed-vessel, single-mode 2.45 GHz microwave reactor with a built-in camera. Particular emphasis is placed on studying the discharges exhibited by different metals (Mg, Zn, Cu, Fe, Ni) of varying particle sizes and morphologies in organic solvents (e.g., benzene) at different electric field ...

Relativistic runaway electron avalanches (RREAs) are generally accepted as a source of thunderstorms gamma-ray radiation. Avalanches can multiply in the electric field via relativistic feedback mechanism based on processes with gamma-rays and positrons. This paper shows that non-uniform geometry lead to new RREAs multiplication - "reactor feedback", due exchange high-energy particles between di...

This paper provides a simple methodology for the design of air reactor chemical looping combustor to optimize its characteristics when it is employed connected turbo expander produce power. The process, given certain objective (e.g., electric power) defines specifics, namely height and diameter, taking into account following aspects: solids inventory reactor; gas velocity; transport disengaging...
