Review of biodiesel synthesis from waste oil under elevated pressure and temperature: Phase equilibrium, reaction kinetics, process design and techno-economic study
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The synthesis of biodiesel under elevated pressure and temperature could be promising technology which could result in sustainable biodiesel production, from renewable and waste streams like waste oil or used frying oil, ...
Immunomodulatory effects of carbon nanotubes functionalized with a Toll-like receptor 7 agonist on human dendritic cells
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The protocols for the preparation of dendritic cells (DCs) as cancer vaccines based on stimulation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are very promising. In this study we covalently attached 7-thia-8-oxoguanosine (7-TOG), a ...
In situ Al-27 NMR kinetic investigation of zeolite A crystallization
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2014)
In this study, in situ Al-27 NMR spectroscopy was used to gain detailed information concerning kinetics of zeolite A crystallization. Changes of relative intensity and width at half-height of NMR lines at 59 ppm ascribed ...
An exergy composite curves approach for the design of optimum multi-pressure organic Rankine cycle processes
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
This work adopts the (ECCs) under bar (exergy composite curves) approach to explore the potential for ORC (organic Rankine cycle) process improvements. The method is used to explore different ORC configurations supported ...
The first 1000 cultured species of the human gastrointestinal microbiota
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2014)
The microorganisms that inhabit the human gastrointestinal tract comprise a complex ecosystem with functions that significantly contribute to our systemic metabolism and have an impact on health and disease. In line with ...
Synthesis of core-shell hematite (α-Fe2O3) nanoplates: Quantitative analysis of the particle structure and shape, high coercivity and low cytotoxicity
(Applied Surface Science, 2017)
Hematite core-shell nanoparticles with plate-like morphology were synthesized using a one-step hydrothermal synthesis. An XRPD analysis indicates that the sample consist of single-phase α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles. SEM and TEM ...
Poly(methacrylic acid) based hydrogels as sorbents for removal of cationic dye basic yellow 28: Kinetics, equilibrium study and image analysis
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2013)
Poly(methacrylic acid) based hydrogels with neutralization degree of monomer of 0% (PMAA/0) and 80% (PMAA/80) were synthesized and their sorption potentials toward model cationic dye, basic yellow 28 (BY28), from aqueous ...
Lactic acid production on liquid distillery stillage by Lactobacillus rhamnosus immobilized onto zeolite
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
In this study, lactic acid and biomass production on liquid distillery stillage from bioethanol production with Lactobacillus rhamnosus ATCC 7469 was studied. The cells were immobilized onto zeolite, a microporous ...
Mathematical modeling of silver release from antimicrobial nanocomposite Ag/alginate microbeads
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2014)
Design of biocompatible immobilized Candida rugosa lipase with potential application in food industry
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2016)
BACKGROUNDBiocatalysts are a promising alternative for the production of natural flavor compounds. Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) is a particularly important biocatalyst owing to its remarkable efficiency in both hydrolysis ...
