This work developed a sustainable process of bio-ethanol production from molasses by using various tools including process simulation, sustainability analysis, and life cycle assessment (LCA). The process simulator, PRO/II ...

Pure silk fibroin (SF) hydrogel and composites of polycarbazole/silk fibroin (PCZ/SF) hydrogel were fabricated by solvent casting technique to investigate electromechanical properties, dielectric properties, and deflection ...

The eco-friendly surfactant detergency in future is motivated by environmental saving. The design of cold water detergency to perform well requires formulation of detergency not only making them effective but also highly ...

Nowadays, the use of heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production is an attractive solution because it can be separated more easily from the reaction products (biodiesel and glycerine). In this work, KOH/Montnorillonite ...

Poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and its copolymers are piezoelectric polymers with growing applications in sensors and actuators. Generally, PVDF demonstrates an ability to convert the mechanical energy into electrical ...

Normally, flue gas released into the atmosphere from most industries, including the petrochemical industry, contains approximately 80 % N2, 15 % CO2, and 5 % O2. The flue gas produced by the combustion of fossil fuels, ...

The impact strength and heat distortion temperature (HDT) of Polycarbonate (PC)/Polylactic acid (PLA) blends was developed by adding reactive compatibilizers. Polycarbonate (PC) is an engineering thermoplastic which has ...

Aromatics are significant and essentially an important fraction of feedstock for the petrochemical industry, which have been mainly produced from fossil fuels for several decades. With the emerging concept of green economies ...

Mesoporous materials have been used as catalyst supports for many applications. In this study, TUD-I, which is a type of siliceous mesoporous material with effective properties, such as large surface area (400-1,000 m²/g), ...

This research deals with the development of smart packaging based on polypropylene-1 wt% clay nanocomposites incorporated with silver nanoparticles at different contents (5, 10, 15, and 20 wt% in the clay). The masterbatch ...
