The analytical results from a study of 16 honey samples (extra white to dark honey color range) of phenolic compounds obtained using the single UV spectrum methodology and classical spectrophotometric methods (Folin–Ciocalteu and AlCl3 methods)...

Solar energy is one of the main renewable energy resources due to its abundance. It can be used for two purposes, thermal or photovoltaic applications. However, when the resource obtained is mixed, it is called photovoltaic thermal hybrid, where the...

The orthogonal array design method was used to optimize ultrasonic-assisted extraction of resveratrol from peanut sprouts. The results showed that the highest extraction yield of resveratrol using ultrasonic-assisted extraction could be up to 1.1%. T...

To investigate the combustion process and reduce Nitric Oxide (NO) emissions in the vertical heating flue of air-staged coke ovens, a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics method was applied to simulate the combustion process. The model inte...

In this study, the influence of fermentation and different drying techniques on the bioactive components, antioxidant activity, phenolic components, fatty acids, nutrients and sensory characteristics of fresh and processed jalapeño peppers was...

Heat integration has been widely and successfully practiced for recovering thermal energy in process plants for decades. It is usually implemented through synthesizing heat exchanger networks (HENs). It is recognized that mechanical energy, another f...

The extraction and collection of crude oil will result in the formation of numerous complex emulsions, which will not only decrease crude oil production, raise the cost of extraction and storage, and worsen pipeline equipment loss, but also seriously...

Removal of toxic pollutants is of the greatest concerns facing wastewater treatment. In this study, a chemical modification method was used to prepare the maleic anhydride-modified water hyacinth (MA-EC) for the removal of methylene blue (MB) and met...

Cream cheese is a type of fresh cheese with a thin consistency with great potential for adding probiotics. However, artificial thickeners have been used in its production, decreasing consumer satisfaction. This study suggests natural mucilage, specif...

This study aims to assess the dynamic performance of the vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) with the help of conventional aluminum (Al) and the boron Al metal matrix composite (MMC). The simulations were conducted using ANSYS software and involved nat...
