The ability and potency of bacterial species to form biofilms, which show antibiotic resistance thereby avoiding antibiotic surfaces, is a major cause of prolonged infections. Various advanced approaches have been employed ...

Fast pyrolysis of six biomasses mustard, camellia, pinewood, sawdust, bamboo, and bagasse was completed at a temperature of 500°C in a fixed bed reactor and a twin-screw reactor. It was found that the yield of bio-oil ...

We have successfully synthesized para-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA)-based conducting polyaniline (PA) by using ammonium persulfate (APS) as oxidant for supercapacitor electrode applications. The primary aim is to find out ...

Decoding the factors behind odor perception has long been a challenge in the field of human neuroscience, olfactory research, perfumery, psychology, biology and chemistry. The new wave of data-driven and machine learning ...

The fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) production from dairy effluent scum as a sustainable energy source using CaO obtained from organic ash over titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TNPs) as the transesterification nano-catalyst ...

In the present study four catalysts, prepared by four different methods i.e. co- impregnation, citric acid sol-gel, urea nitrate combustion and urea gelation co- precipitation methods, have been used to study the effect ...

Lead's history in science, medicine and technology has been overshadowed by its notoriety as a poison in homicides. Lead is viewed as being synonymous with toxicity. Dangerous lead concentration in natural, as well as ...

An exact solution for the concentration profile in tubes with surface reaction coupled with permeation have been obtained in terms of fast converging confluent hypergeometric function that gives accurate results. An excellent ...

The expansion of lithium-ion batteries from consumer electronics to larger-scale transport and energy storage applications has made understanding the many mechanisms responsible for battery degradation increasingly important. ...

Biodiesel was produced by enzymatic transesterification of soybean oil with isobutanol esterifying agent and Lipase (Pseudomonas cepacia) as a biocatalyst. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (Thermo-Nicolet mode 5700) ...
