oil mole ratio (1:6 to 1:24). The synthesis of methyl esters were achieved by an autoclave nitrogen pressurized reactor equipped with a magnetic stirrer and a thermocouple.42 A maximum yield (97%) of methyl ester was obtained at a temperature of 180 °C, 1:15 molar ratio of methanol and oil for a reaction period of 2 hours. The 3 wt% of catalyst amount and 350-360 min-1 agitation speed were fixed respectively to obtain good yields. 2.13. Esterification of free fatty acids in crude palm oil The production

critical concentration value for dissolution of Avicel. The dissolution mechanism was also capable of fractionating lignocellulose components at the modest reaction conditions, and the fractionations were then regenerated by an organic solvent, e.g., ethanol and acetone, or water [180, 256]. The regenerated amorphous cellulose, precipitated from the dissolved cellulose, demonstrated extremely high reactivity for enzymatic digestibility, suggesting the dissolution technique as a new approach for pretreatment

2.6.4 Vacuum drying Amellal and Benamara (2008) investigated the drying ability of date (Phoenix dactylifera L.) pulp cubes from three Algerian common varieties (Mech - Degla, Degla - Beida, and Frezza). Drying process was carried out under partial vacuum (200 mbar) at 60, 80, and 100° C. Compared to the Newton model, the Henderson and Pabis model better described drying kinetic of Mech - Degla and Frezza pulps at 60 and 80° C with a mean relative error (MRE) not higher than 6.07%. The same model

The first image is pop singer Rihanna with her brand of perfume called RiRi and the second image was of an unidentified model with the perfume name Chloe. I must say both ads try to grab your attention with beautiful women displayed and advertising the perfume bottles with a simple yet direct approach. It seems that although they are both perfumes designed for women, they are targeted towards

Minors who break the law may be charged with criminal offenses, and if convicted, face jail sentences, fines, diversion programs (supervised counseling, which often results in dropped charges if the minor participates successfully in the program), and sentences such as a number of hours of community service. What if there was a place that you could be eighteen and not get a ticket for just having a beer in your hand? A place where younger adults could drink without getting caught. This place should

Can the surface tension of water be affected by common household chemicals? Project design plan Water is composed of two Hydrogen molecules which are covalently bonded to an Oxygen molecule. In this configuration the Hydrogens electrons are located closest to the oxygen molecule, while the oxygen’s electrons are on the opposite side of the atom away from the Hydrogen molecules. This causes the Hydrogen side of the water molecule to have a negative charge and the hydrogen side of the atom to have
