co2 emissions from combustion flue gases have turned into a major factor in global warming. post-combustion carbon capture (pcc) from industrial utility flue gases by reactive absorption can substantially reduce the emissions of the greenhouse gas co2. to test a new solvent (ait600) for this purpose, a small pilot plant was used. this paper presents the results of studies on chemical methods of...

a new correlation function for the calculation of viscosity for five typical supercritical gases is presented using the rainwater-friend and modified enskog theory. it is shown that by using accurate value for the thermal pressure and co-volume in the modified enskog theory, this correlation function is suitable for calculation of the viscosity of supercritical gases, without any density and te...

background: separate radon and thoron measurements in soil are very important in assessment of internal exposure due to inhalation of such radioactive gases. materials and methods: in this study, a low cost, small size, passive diffusion chamber has been developed for simple measurement of radon-222 and radon-220(thoron) gases separately in soil. the diffusion chamber consists of two films and ...

in this work, the pc-saft equation of state (eos) has been used to model the solubility of acid gases (co2 and h2s) in two imidazolium-based ionic liquids (ils) ([c8-mim][pf6] and [c8-mim][tf2n]). parameters of pure ils were estimated using experimental densities. two strategies were considered to model densities of pure ils. in strategy 1, ils were modeled as nonassociating compounds and in st...

The present study attempts to investigate the potential relationship between input energies, performance production of greenhouse basil, and greenhouse gases emitted from this product. The data were collected from 24 greenhouses using a questionnaire and verbal interaction with farmers. Results of the study showed that the total input energy and total output energy for basil production were 119...

In this paper, the effect of adding hydrogen to the composition of methane and air in a micro combustor is investigated by a three-dimensional numerical method. First, the results of the current study in determining the wall temperature of the micro combustion chamber are compared with those obtained from the experimental and numerical results of the previous research. By confirming the numeric...
