Prediction of municipal solid waste generation using artificial neural network approach enhanced by structural break analysis
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2017)
This paper presents the development of a general regression neural network (GRNN) model for the prediction of annual municipal solid waste (MSW) generation at the national level for 44 countries of different size, population ...
A differential multi-criteria analysis for the assessment of sustainability performance of European countries: Beyond country ranking
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
Sustainable development as a concept that aims to enhance the quality of life without affecting environment has been in focus in European policies since the last decade of 20th century. The objectives of EU Sustainable ...
High pressure densities and derived thermodynamic properties for the (n-heptane plus n-octane plus ethanol) ternary system
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2017)
The density of the ternary system (n-heptane + n-octane + ethanol) at temperatures from (293.15 to 373.15) K and at pressures from (0.1 to 40) MPa was experimentally determined at twelve compositions and the results are ...
Experimental Investigation and Modeling of Thermophysical Properties of Pure Methyl and Ethyl Esters at High Pressures
(Amer Chemical Soc, Washington, 2017)
Densities, speeds of sound, and refractive indices of methyl laurate, ethyl laurate, ethyl myristate, and ethyl oleate in the temperature range 288.15-343.15 K and viscosities from 288.15 to 373.15 K were measured at ...
Impregnation of cotton fabric with pyrethrum extract in supercritical carbon dioxide
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2017)
This study discusses a possibility of cotton fabric impregnation with pyrethrum extract as a tick repellent in supercritical carbon dioxide. A solubility of pyrethrum extract in supercritical carbon dioxide has been ...
High pressure modified cotton in wound dressing applications
(Cotton Fibres: Characteristics, Uses and Performance, 2017)
The use of cotton in wound dressing applications is discussed in this chapter. Cotton gauze provides flexibility, controlled adherence to the surrounding tissue, gas permeability, durability and absorbance of fluids exuded ...
Pectin-polyvinylpyrrolidone films: A sustainable approach to the development of biobased packaging materials
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2017)
In this work, the new biodegradable blend films composed of natural polymer pectin and synthetic polymer polyvinylpyrrolidone were obtained through casting process. The concentration of glycerol in all formulations was ...
Chitosan-triclosan films for potential use as bio-antimicrobial bags in healthcare sector
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2017)
In this work, antimicrobial bioinspired films made from chitosan incorporated with triclosan were investigated. The tensile strenght of these films were in the range of 33 and 39 MPa, which presented satisfied mechanical ...
Isopiestic determination of the osmotic and activity coefficients of the {yMg(NO3)(2) + (1-y)MgSO4}(aq) system at T=298.15 K
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2017)
Isopiestic (vapor pressure) measurements were made for aqueous mixtures of Mg(NO3)(2) and MgSO4 at T = (298.15 +/- 0.01) K with Mg(NO3)(2) ionic strength fractions y = (0.19691, 0.42542, 0.60113, 0.79583, and 1), along ...
Co(III) complexes of (1,3-selenazol-2-yl)hydrazones and their sulphur analogues
(Royal Soc Chemistry, Cambridge, 2017)
The first Co(III) complexes with (1,3-selenazol-2-yl)hydrazones as an unexplored class of ligands were prepared and characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The novel ligands act as NNN tridentate ...
