Process and techno-economic analysis of green diesel production from waste vegetable oil and the comparison with ester type biodiesel production
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Like ester type biodiesel fuel, green diesel is a next generation transportation fuel emerging due to the need for a renewable replacement of internal combustion engine fuel, which is also fully compatible with existing ...
Visible-light active mesoporous, nanocrystalline N,S-doped and co-doped titania photocatalysts synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel route
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Visible-light active mesoporous N,S-doped and co-doped anatase TiO2 powders were synthesized by non-hydrolytic sol-gel route, starting from TiCl4 and Ti((OPr)-Pr-i)(4) dissolved in cyclohexane or dimethyl sulfoxide, later ...
CdS quantum dots sensitized TiO2 nanotubes by matrix assisted pulsed laser evaporation method
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Within this study a matrix assisted pulsed laser evaporation technique was employed for deposition of CdS quantum dots onto TiO2 nanotubes. The number of laser pulses and laser fluence were varied to control the amount of ...
Biodiesel production by methanolysis of waste lard from piglet roasting over quicklime
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Waste lard from piglet roasting and quicklime (basically CaO) as a priceless fatty feedstock and a cheap solid catalyst, respectively were tested for the biodiesel production by methanolysis in a batch stirred reactor at ...
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 ...
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 ...
Absorption boost of TiO2 nanotubes by doping with N and sensitization with CdS quantum dots
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
A process of obtaining N-doped TiO2 nanotubes sensitized by CdS nanoparticles is presented, including detailed characterizations performed along the synthesis. Transparent TiO2 films consisting of nanotubes, 2.5 mu m long ...
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, ...
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 ...
