Volume 12, Issue 2 , April 2015, , Pages 3-12
Abstract
> Copper-silica aerogel was synthesized by the sol-gel method and was heated at 400, 500 and 600°C for 3 h in the air. The gained materials were named as sample (a), (b) and (c) respectively. Then all samples were characterized by FE-SEM, EDX and FTIR spectroscopy. For resistance measurements ...

Volume 6, Issue 4 , October 2009, , Pages 27-33
Abstract
In low-temperature processes, heat rejected from separation columns is removed by refrigeration systems to heat sinks (reboilers & pre-heaters), process streams, other refrigeration streams, or external utilities. The need for efficient utilization and recovery of energy in sub-ambient gas separation ... Read MoreSoy Protein Isolate and Gum Arabic Composite Affects Stability of Beverage Emulsion

Volume 4, Issue 1 , January 2007, , Pages 36-42
Abstract
Carbon black or soot is a carbon rich material which is widely used as a modifier and filler. Usually carbon black is produced via thermal decomposition of heavy hydrocarbons. This process is too complex to be modelled fundamentally. In this study, the effect of reaction feed composition on the soot ...
