This study aimed to investigate CO2 absorption using chemical solvent of amine H2O-TEA-CO2 in presence of activated carbon (AC) particles. The studied experimental range includes the temperature in range of 293–333 K, pressure in range of 3.5–9.5 bar, the concentration of solvents in range of 2.5–8.5 wt%, and amount of activated carbon in range of 0.3–0.9 kg/m3. The central composite design (CCD) with four parameters of temperature, pressure, amine concentration, and active carbon was applied in 5 levels. The physical solubility CO2 in amine solutions decreases with the increasing temperature that indicates the process is exothermic. The optimal values of temperature, pressure, concentration, and active carbon are 303.0 K, 8.00 bar, 7.00 M, 0.75 g, respectively, and 25.99% for the input variables and desirability index of 0.732. The CO2 loading, absorption capacity, and absorption percentage are obtained in the range of 0.572–1.180 molCO2/molTEA, 0.208–0.506 wt%, and 12.73–32.61% in Triethanolamine (TEA) solutions in activated carbon, respectively. All dependent variables had a p value of less than 0.05, indicating that models were significant and substantial. The result showed that the addition of solid particles to chemical solvents effectively enhances CO2 absorption.
The Monte Carlo model for the photon-beam output from the Varian Clinac 2100 linear accelerator was validated to compare the calculated to measured PDD and beam dose profiles The Monte Carlo calculation method is considered to be the most accurate method for dose calculation in radiotherapy. The objective of this study is to build a Monte Carlo geometry of Varian Clinac 2100 linear accelerator as realistically as possible. The Monte Carlo codes used in this work were the BEAMnrc code to simulate the photons beam and the DOSXYZnrc code to examinate the absorbed dose in the water phantom. We have calculated percentage depth dose (PDD) and beam profiles of the 6 MV photon beam for the 6 × 6 cm2, 10 × 10 cm2 and 15 × 15 cm2 field sizes. We have used the gamma index technique for the quantitative evaluation to compare the measured and calculated distributions. Good agreement was found between calculated PDD and beam profile compared to measured data. The comparison was evaluated using the gamma index method and the criterions were 3% for dose difference and 3 mm for distance to agreement. The gamma index acceptance rate was more than 97% of both distribution comparisons PDDs and dose profiles and our results were more developed and accurate. The Varian Clinac 2100 linear accelerator was accurately modeled using Monte Carlo codes: BEAMnrc and DOSXYZnrc codes package. 相似文献
Planar microstrip patch antennas can achieve a wide range of radiation patterns. However, due to surface-wave losses, they have low bandwidth, low gain, and a potential decrease in radiation efficiency. In order to minimize the surface-wave effects, a photonic-band gap (PBG) substrate is proposed. The PBG structure significantly diminishes the surface-wave modes and thus improves the gain and far-field radiation pattern and efficiency. In this paper, using FDTD, an accurate full-wave analysis of surface-wave propagation in a rectangular microstrip patch antenna with and without PBG is presented. Finally, the antenna fabricated and result of measurement was compared with numerical simulation. 相似文献
Three different bubble injection patterns including uniform, center oriented and corner oriented injection patterns over the gas distributor have been studied using a discrete bubble model in a 2-D gas solid fluidized bed. The results show that the bubble size and size distribution evolution through the bed are almost the same for uniform and corner oriented bubble injection patterns, but for the case of center oriented injection pattern, the area weighted average bubble diameter (d b,21) is greater than the others. The results show that in the center oriented injection pattern, many of the small bubbles leave the bed without coalescence and this leads to smaller d b,10 than two other cases. Moreover, in this work the size distribution evolution through the bed height is investigated in detail. 相似文献
Cloud point methodology was successfully used to preconcentrate trace amounts of Co and Ni as a prior step to their determination
by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. 1-Nitroso-2-naphthol and polyethylene glycol-p-nonylphenylether (PONPE 7.5) are used
as hydrophobic ligand and nonionic surfactant, respectively. Optimization was performed of the variables effecting complexation
and phase separation. Additionally, the influence of viscosity on the analytical signal was investigated. Under the experimental
conditions used, preconcentration of only 10 mL of sample in the presence of 0.075% (v/v) PONPE 7.5 permitted the detection
of 1.09 μg L−1 of Ni and 1.22 μg L−1 of Co with enhancement factors of 29 and 27 for Ni and Co, respectively. The relative standard deviations (n=5) at concentrations of 80 and 50 μg L−1 for Co and Ni were 2.53 and 2.89%, respectively. Good recoveries in the range of 96–105% were obtained for spiked samples.
The effect of different interferent species was studied. The proposed method was applied to the determination of Ni and Co
in different water samples.

This study was initiated to demonstrate the impact of tolerance intervals calculated based on experimental data and standard criteria on the capability to detect and identify pesticide residues by GC-MS in plant extract. The tolerance intervals specified by the current guidelines and standards (EU, EPA, ISO, EC) result in a large number of false negative values. The tolerance intervals calculated based on the actually measured ion ratios at 2 different probability levels did not provide a better estimate. Based on experimental findings a 2-phase procedure for confirmation of pesticide residues is recommended. The first screening phase comprises identification of those pesticide residues that are likely to be present avoiding false negatives as far as possible. Relatively large tolerance intervals, +/-30% of absolute ion abundances ratios, have to be used at this point. When 2 or 3 selected ion ratios are within the established tolerance intervals the residue is confirmed. When the ions detected still indicate the possible presence of a residue the result may be reported as tentatively identified. However, when the result would lead to regulatory action, second confirmatory phase has to be undertaken. This can be achieved with the same GC-MS equipment, by injecting matrix-matched standards of the suspected analyte, in order to compensate for matrix influence on ion ratios. Alternatively, methods using different physico-chemical properties of the compound have to be used. The choice of the technique depends on their availability, time and cost. 相似文献
