If a few years ago, with twofold increase in yields and severalfold the export potential of domesticgrain industry, there was 140% shortage capacity almost 150% drying [4], now deficit thiscapacity has not only decreased, but also increased. And reason for this is low pace construction or renewalof production grain procurement enterprises, rather outpacing growth rate gross grainproduction over...

An internally heat integrated distillation column, HIDiC, offers the maximum energy saving potential for difficult and energy intensive separations, such as propylenepropane and the like, which are carried out in tray columns. A novel type of HIDiC was developed by TUDelft, namely a concentric distillation column in which a low pressure annular stripping section is configured around a high pres...

In this study, a short method for the design of reactive distillation is presented. The method is based on distillation lines and tray-by-tray calculations, and a new strategy is suggested to locate the reflux ratio, the number of stages, and feed tray. The material balances are solved from the outside (top and bottom) to the inside of the distillation column (feed), to ensure that the product ...

background: different factors such as impression techniques and materials can affect the passive fi t between the superstructure and implant. the aim of this study was to determine the effect of different impression materials and techniques on the dimensional accuracy of implant defi nitive casts. materials and methods: four internal hex implants (biohorizons ø4 mm) were placed on a metal maxil...

Three children were injured by putting their arms into spin dryers. In each case the injuries were severe. Though not common, these accidents should be preventable. Warning notices are useless for toddlers, and a built-in safety mechanism seems the only certain means of stopping such accidents.

We present a framework, called TrayGen, to generate tray designs for the exhibition and packaging of a collection of objects. Based on principles from shape perception and visual merchandising, we abstract a number of design guidelines on how to organize the objects on the tray for the exhibition of their individual features and mutual relationships. Our framework realizes these guidelines by a...

This study has created the Playful Tray that adopts Ubicomp and persuasive techniques into play-based occupational therapy for reducing poor eating behavior in young children after they reached their self-feeding age. The design of the Playful Tray reinforces active participation of children in the activity of eating by integrating digital play with eating. Results of a pilot user study suggest...

In this study, the Taguchi method is used to find the optimal process parameters for an injection moulding machine that was used to produce a consumer product (plastic tray) from polypropylene (PP) plastic material. An orthogonal array (OA), main effect, signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were employed to investigate the bending characteristics of the tray under a con...
