1. The Influence of the Platinum Weight Percentage in the Catalyst Formulation on the Performance of a High Temperature Ethanol Electroreformer Based on H3PO4 Doped Polybenzimidazole for Green Hydrogen Production
A vapor-fed high temperature proton exchange ethanol electroreformer has been developed based on the use of a H3PO4-doped polybenzimidazole membrane to produce green hydrogen. As a key parameter, this article describes the influence of platinum weight percent (wt.%) in the catalyst formulation from different commercial catalysts (20, 40, 60, 80 wt.% Pt/C and

2. Omni-Directional Wideband Antenna Array with Solar Cells
Abstract Distributed sensor networks are becoming more and more widespread due to their substantial benefits to our daily lives. These sensors, in most cases, are distributed in nature and even may require mobility. This, in turn, implies omnidirectional collector units to collect the data from various sensors at arbitrary directions. This work summarizes th

3. Protein Removal from Natural Rubber Latex with Fe3O4@Al2O3 Nanoparticle
The presence of protein in the natural rubber latex for the medical device manufacture seems to be the most considered compound due to its allergic effect. Magnetic coated alumina (Fe3O4@Al2O3) has been known as an adsorbent for organic substrates due to its performance through physical and/or chemical interaction. In the current study, we tried to figure ou

4. Methyl jasmonate modulation reduces photosynthesis and induces synthesis of phenolic compounds in sweet potatoes subjected to drought
ABSTRACT Sweet potato [Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam.] has wide adaptability to different climatic conditions. However, its yield can be affected by prolonged periods of drought. Application of exogenous jasmonates can modulate several physiological and biochemical processes, improving plant tolerance to abiotic stress. This study sought to evaluate the role of e

5. A Choline Chloride-Ethylene Glycol Deep Eutectic Solvent Based on Magnetic Polydopamine with Preconcentration and Determination for Sulfonylurea Herbicides in Water Samples
In this study, a novel deep eutectic solvent (DES) containing choline chloride and ethylene glycol was synthesized, and the magnetic polydopamine (PDA) was modified with this deep eutectic solvent to form Fe3O4@PDA-DES. Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and vibrating sample magnetometer were used to characterize the pro

6. Optimization and release evaluation for tea polyphenols and chitosan composite films with regulation of glycerol and Tween
Abstract In order to optimize the performance of chitosan-tea polyphenols composite films, effects of glycerol and Tween on the antioxidative activities and physical performance of chitosan composite films were evaluated. The results indicated that both flexibility and water vapour permeability of chitosan/tea polyphenols films were improved with the additio

7. A NEW COMPUTATIONAL FLUID DYNAMICS STUDY OF A LIQUID-LIQUID HYDROCYCLONE IN THE TWO PHASE CASE FOR SEPARATION OF OIL DROPLETS AND WATER
Abstract A liquid-liquid hydrocyclone, so-called de-oiling equipment, was investigated for separation of oil droplets and wastewater in an Iranian petroleum unit. To generate the geometry and the mesh of the hydrocyclone Gambit software was used. Afterwards, by taking advantage of the Euler-Lagrangian principle, the governing equations covering the motion of

8. Seismic resistance performance of a utility tunnel in saline soil foundation based on new cementitious composite materials
Abstract Because soluble salt in saline soil dissolves with water, utility tunnels built in saline soil foundation are more likely to damage due to by groundwater and earthquake. In this study, new cementitious composite materials were developed by using slag, building gypsum, quicklime, and magnesia. The unconfined compressive strengths of the saline soil s

9. Performance of Avocado Seed Activated Carbon as Adsorbent for Highly Sensitive Determination of Cd Using a Flow Injection System Online Coupled to TS-FF-AAS
A flow-injection preconcentration system using detection by the thermospray flame furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (FIA-TS-FF-AAS) is proposed. Cd2+ are adsorbed on avocado seed activated carbon (ASAC) packed into a cylindrical mini-column and eluted using HCl solutions for the detection system. A 25–1 fractional factorial and Doehlert matrix design
