Analysis of soluble chemical transfer from soil to surface runoff and incomplete mixing parameter identification
Abstract A two-layer mathematical model proposed by Tong et al. (2010) was used to predict soluble chemical transfer from soil into surface runoff with ponded water on the soil surface. Infiltration-related incomplete mixing parameter γ and...

Swelling of radiation-cured polymer precursor powder for silicon carbide by pyrolysis
Abstract Ceramic yield, density, volume change and pore size distribution were measured for radiation- and thermally cured PCS powder when they were pyrolyzed in the temperature range of 673–973K. Higher ceramic yield was obtained for...

Renewable Interfacial Modifier for Silica Filled Natural Rubber Compound
Abstract A main problem of using silica as reinforcing filler in natural rubber (NR) compound is a poor dispersion of silica in the rubber matrix due to incompatibility between them. As silica contains high silanol groups on its surface, these polar ...

Dynamic Operation of Post-combustion CO2 Capture in Australian Coal-fired Power Plants
Abstract Flexible operation of post-combustion CO2 capture (PCC) plants can improve efficiency through coordinating the balance between consumer demands for electricity and CO2 emission reductions. This strategy however, will impose process...

Study on the possibilities of treatment of combustion by-products from fluidized bed boilers into a product devoid of free calcium oxide
Abstract The purpose of this paper is to examine the possibility of reduction of free calcium oxide content in waste from fluidized bed boilers by treating them with carbon dioxide under various conditions. The primary examination concerning the...

Experimental Analysis of Minimum Ignition Temperature of Coal Dust Layers in Oxy-fuel Combustion Atmospheres
Abstract An experimental investigation into the hot surface ignition of coal dust layers has been undertaken in oxy-fuel combustion atmospheres, with the oxygen mole fractions in the range of 21-50 vol. % (21%, 30%, 40% and 50%). Three coals were...

Rheological Modelling of the Effects of Sucrose Adulterant on Nigerian Honey
ABSTRACT Rheology has been applied as sensitive tool for material characterisation since flow behaviour correlates closely with composition, molecular weight and molecular weight distribution. Pure honey was serially diluted with different...

Pressure-drop Reduction and Heat-transfer Deterioration of Slush Nitrogen in Square Pipe flow
Abstract Pressure drop and heat transfer tests were carried out using slush nitrogen flowing in a horizontal square pipe at flow velocity between 1.0 and 4.9 m/s, with a mass solid fraction between 6 and 26wt.%, and with heat fluxes of 0, 10 and...
