Enhancement of Heat Transfer by Ultrasound: Review and Recent AdvancesInternational Journal of Chemical Engineering - Tập 2011 Số 1 - 2011
M. Legay, Nicolas Gondrexon, Stéphane Le Person, P. Boldo, André Bontemps
This paper summarizes some applications of ultrasonic vibrations regarding heat
transfer enhancement techniques. Research literature is reviewed, with special
attention to examples for which ultrasonic technology was used alongside a
conventional heat transfer process in order to enhance it. In several industrial
applications, the use of ultrasound is often a way to increase productivity in
the pr... hiện toàn bộ
An Experimental Approach to Formulate Lignin-Based Surfactant for Enhanced Oil RecoveryInternational Journal of Chemical Engineering - Tập 2019 - Trang 1-6 - 2019
Kenny Ganie, Muhammad A. Manan, Mohamad Arif Ibrahim, Ahmad Kamal Idris
The higher cost of chemical surfactants has been one of the main reasons for
their limited used in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) process. Hence, the reason for
developing lignin-based surfactant is to lower the cost of chemicals as it does
not tie to the price of crude oil as compared to petroleum-based surfactants.
Besides, lignin is biodegradable and easily extracted from plant waste. The

The potential toxicity in riverbed sediments was assessed with a bioassay using
the bioluminescent bacteriaVibrio fischeri. The selected area was characterized
by the presence of ultramafic rocks (peridotites), and the sediments had high
values in Ni, Cr, and Co. For the toxicity bioassay withVibrio fischeri,
water-soluble forms were used. The results indicated that most of the samples
had a very ... hiện toàn bộ
A Review on Heavy Metals (As, Pb, and Hg) Uptake by Plants through PhytoremediationInternational Journal of Chemical Engineering - Tập 2011 Số 1 - 2011

Heavy metals are among the most important sorts of contaminant in the
environment. Several methods already used to clean up the environment from these
kinds of contaminants, but most of them are costly and difficult to get optimum
results. Currently, phytoremediation is an effective and affordable
technological solution used to extract or remove inactive metals and metal
pollutants from contaminat... hiện toàn bộ
