...Impact of Non Woven in filtration Application Abstract Textile filters can be mainly of two types: woven and nonwovens. Woven fabric offer some advantages like easy estimation of its pore size distribution, which relates to filtration efficiency. This means woven fabrics can be produced with required filtration efficiency by changing its weave parameters and yarn properties. When compared with woven filter medium, nonwoven filter media offers many advantages like high permeability, higher number of pores per unit area, better cake release property, no slippage of yarn as in case of woven fabrics, higher filtration efficiency. Lower manufacturing cost and variability makes them suitable for all types of filtration jobs. Nonwoven filter is porous fabric which is made up of randomly arranged fibres or filaments. Its main function is to separate suspended particles or components of gas or fluid passing through it. There are many applications of filter media requiring different profile, conditions and of course different fibre materials. Filter equipments used in application also affects the type of filter medium to be used. Conventionally natural fibres like cotton, cellulose, asbestos were used, which are now replaced by synthetic fibres and glass fibres. In the presentation we will be discussing about more about high performance filters i.e they will be used at high temperature and high chemical reactive conditions. We have studied the paper like “Chemical and thermal stability...

...Grocery Shopping Walking through a grocery store you can find all different sorts of people. There’s the people that only need a few things and use a basket accordingly, there’s the people that have a smaller list and are not expecting to buy a lot but somehow when they get to the check out their cart is overflowing, or there’s always the person with three carts generously filled. It is the people that fill the baskets, carts and occasionally their own arms that keep a grocery store in business. Because of this, most employees are extremely polite and helpful when it comes to the customers; but that does not stop the customers from being rude not only to each other but to employees as well. The customers who need only a few things are often the rudest shoppers. Normally this is due to the fact that they are in a hurry. It seems as though they think the whole grocery store revolves around them and their few items. They weave in and out of other shoppers and cut off an employee that is trying to help another customer. When these shoppers need help finding something they are often demanding, impatient, and just plain rude. They tap their foot while an employee tries to find what they are looking, and if the employee comes back with bad news such as: they no longer carry that item, they are currently out of that item, or even they never had that item, that’s when the adult who should be mature and understanding throws a tantrum fit. They yell at the employee and demand to...

Prehistoric man, as early as 9,000 BC, was the first to incorporate the stencil printing technique into their surroundings, by placing his hand against the cave wall and blowing pulverized pigment around it. Examples of this early application can be found in caves in France and Spain. Today, this technique is extensively employed for decorating wallpaper, ceilings, textiles and furniture. Artist would normally use an x-acto knife to create this type of design. Also, a stenciling brush is important because they are effective in completing the design. They are round and short with stiff bristles and are used to dab the paint unto a paper, piece of fabric or bristol board. Candle wax yet another way of making a stencil design and can be placed onto the Bristol board so that the paint will not go on unwanted places.

...RESEARCH QUESTIONS 1. What other products are similar to bamboo charcoal fabric? 2. How does bamboo charcoal fabric help neutralize the harsh odor found in clothing, towels and other garments? 3. Please provide information on the differences between other laundry odor neutralizers and bamboo charcoal odor neutralizers? 4. What is the average size of a laundry basket and laundry hamper? 5. Please provide the sizes of a small, medium, and large laundry basket. RESEARCH ANSWERS Introduction Bamboo Charcoal being used in fabric is a relatively new concept, but people are catching on to this discovery and it has become a popular and eco-friendly choice for linens and towels. Bamboo charcoal is made by heating bamboo fibers at high temperatures of 800-1000 degrees Celsius. Once the bamboo has been turned into charcoal it is processed into nanoparticles. Using nanotechnologies these bamboo charcoal nanoparticles are then blended together with organic bamboo fibers and woven into yarn. Bamboo charcoal yarn is used to make the new line of towels, clothing and other garments. The many positive qualities of bamboo charcoal fabric include: Easier on sensitive skin – The fabric inhibits bacterial metabolism causing fewer allergic skin reactions than other fibers sterilized with antimicrobial agents. Reduces Static buildup – This is a conductive material so it keeps a balanced charge in fabric to help reduce static buildup. Superior Absorption & Deodorizing Ability –...

...When Africans were enslaved in the Americas, were they completely stripped of their heritage or do the spirits of their ancestors still influence their lives? If African American’s were completely stripped of their heritage during enslavement, we would not have the slightest bit of knowledge about their past like we do today. These people of color would have been unknown to the 21st century, textbooks, and any media if their ancestors did not influence their lives. I believe that although the slaves were forced to convert to American traditions, their heritage and spiritual religion still remained intact and is part of our modern day culture today. However, to fully answer this question, I must first give some background knowledge on the two tribes I have selected; the Zulu’s and the Ashanti’s. Living in central Ghana a British colony until 1957. Ancient Ghana trade produced pepper, otherwise known as slaves gold and was famous for urban settlement, architecture, and political reign. The Ashanti’s are a ethnic group of the Akans and barley more than 50 years old. The religion is based off the spiritual and supernatural idea that plants, trees, and animals have souls. There are also beliefs centered around ancestors, higher gods, and Nyame; the supreme being of the Ashanti’s. If you think about it, some of the Ashanti’s beliefs are present in American culture. Take the millions of American’s who are vegan. These individuals feel that animals have souls and...

The lei grew to be more poplar then even in the1800’s during the boat day. Traveler who visited Hawaii would be greeted with leis. Many legends of the lei were formed. It was said that if the visitor was leaving the island and threw their lei into ocean and it floated to the beach it meant that one day they would return to the island.

...African art constitutes one of the most diverse legacies on earth. Though many casual observers tend to generalize African art, the continent is full of peoples, societies, and civilizations, each with a unique visual special culture. The definition also includes the art of the African Americans. Despite this diversity, there are some unifying artistic themes when considering the totality of the visual culture from the continent of Africa. The origins of African art lie long before recorded history. African art has a long and surprisingly controversial history. Up until recently, the designation African was usually only bestowed on the arts of black Africa, the peoples living in Sub-Saharan Africa. The non-black peoples of North Africa, the people of the Horn of Africa, as well as the art of ancient Egypt, generally were not included under the rubric of African art. Recently, however, there has been a movement among African art historians and other scholars to include the visual culture of these areas, since all the cultures that produced them, in fact, are located within the geographic boundaries of the African continent. The notion is that by including all African cultures and their visual culture in African art, laypersons will gain a greater understanding of the continent's cultural diversity. Since there was often a confluence of traditional African, Islamic and Mediterranean cultures, scholars have found that drawing distinct divisions between Muslim areas, ancient Egypt...

They would use different types of trees such as hazel or willow branches, roots from redwood, pine, or spruce. These items could be decorated with fern stems and beargrass, as well as red dye from alder bark. The baskets were used, like our grocery bags, to help collect, cook, and store food. A tool created for men was flints, or spoons, which was done by Elk horn. Mussel shells were used by the women as spoons and scrapping roots. They would make designs in their different tools, such as geometric designs. They made redwood log canoes, which were used in the river and the ocean.
