Waste animal fats as feedstocks for biodiesel production
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
Biodiesel, an alternate and ecologically acceptable substitute for the conventional fuel, is usually produced from a wide range of edible vegetable oils, which are normally used for human consumption and whose prices are ...
In situ synthesis of Cu/Cu2O nanoparticles on the TEMPO oxidized cotton fabrics
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
In situ synthesis of Cu/Cu2O nanoparticles on the cotton fabric discussed in this study relies on adsorption of Cu2+-ions by carboxylate groups generated through the TEMPO-mediated oxidation of cellulose and their subsequent ...
Bioactive hydroxyapatite/graphene composite coating and its corrosion stability in simulated body fluid
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2015)
The hydroxyapatite/graphene (HAP/Gr) composite was electrodeposited on Ti using the electrophoretic deposition process to obtain uniform bioactive coating with improved mechanical strength and favorable corrosion stability ...
Preparation and characterization of novel P(HEA/IA) hydrogels for Cd2+ ion removal from aqueous solution
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2015)
Series of novel hydrogels based on 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) and itaconic acid (IA), P(HEA/IA) copolymers, were prepared by free radical cross-linking copolymerization and investigated as potential adsorbents for Cd2+ ...
Effect of Deposition Current Density and Annealing Temperature on the Microstructure, Hardness and Magnetic Properties of Nanostructured Nickel-Iron-Tungsten Alloys
(Electrochemical Soc Inc, Pennington, 2014)
Nanostructured nickel-iron-tungsten alloy coatings were electrodeposited from an ammonia citrate bath on steel and copper substrates at current densities in the range of 50 to 300 mA cm(-2). The contents of iron and tungsten ...
Biological activity of electrochemically synthesized silver doped polyvinyl alcohol/graphene composite hydrogel discs for biomedical applications
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Silver/poly(vinyl alcohol), Ag/PVA, and silver/poly(vinyl alcohol)/graphene, Ag/PVA/Gr, composite hydrogel discs were produced by freezing/thawing, followed by electrochemical reduction of Ag+ ions inside respective matrices, ...
Lignin degradation by selected fungal species
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
As biological decomposition of plant biomass represents a popular alternative environmental-friendly and economically justified process, screening of ligninolytic enzyme systems of various fungal species is a topical study ...
Application of whey protein and whey protein hydrolysate as protein based carrier for probiotic starter culture
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2019)
The main object of study is application of whey protein concentrate (WPC) and whey protein hydrolysate (WPH) for probiotic encapsulation. The controlled enzymatic hydrolysis was applied to change technological properties ...
New composites based on waste PET and non-metallic fraction from waste printed circuit boards: Mechanical and thermal properties
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Influence of the addition of three different non-metallic fractions (NMF), obtained by processing of printed circuit boards (PCBs), on the mechanical and thermal properties of unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) based ...
Production of enzymes by a newly isolated Bacillus sp TMF-1 in solid state fermentation on agricultural by-products: The evaluation of substrate pretreatment methods
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Study on potential of different agro-industrial waste residues for supporting the growth of newly isolated Bacillus sp. TMF-1 strain under solid-state fermentation (SSF) was conducted aiming to produce several industrially ...
