High pore volume silica materials have attracted growing interest for their increasing applications in various fields such as catalyst carrier, coating additive, adsorbent, etc. It is interesting to both industry and academy for its progress in how large pore volume silica material can be produced and what kinds of approaches have been applied. For this purpose, this review intends to summarize the recent progress about the prep Read More

Currently, the emission amount of nitrogen oxide (NOx) from the cement industry accounts for about 10-12% of total emissions in China, and the cement industry has become the third biggest source of NOx, following thermal power plants and vehicles. Thus, the task for controlling NOx emission from the cement industry is very urgent. Selective non-catalytic reduction (SNCR) denitrification technology has many advanta Read More

A new patent co-current apparatus for gas purification from SO2 is presented. In comparison with the counter-current gas absorbers the gas velocity in the co-current apparatus increases 5-6 times and as a result the column diameter decreases more than 2 times. The new approach for modeling of the column apparatuses is used for modeling the SO2 absorption in the co-current apparatus. The convection-diffusion mod Read More

A comprehensive analysis of the growth of research activity has been conducted in the field of “Engineering” originating from Arab countries. A bibliometric analysis based on database Scopus was carried out to follow research activities in this field. Both quantitative and qualitative perceptions were taken into consideration. It is a fruitful and an informative study for scholars in disciplines related to engineering. A tot Read More

For rapid construction of hovercraft landing platforms at sea shore various compositions of oxychloride cement (OCC) along with sea sand, melamine formaldehyde resin, guar gum and unsaturated polyester resins were prepared for optimization of the suitable composition with optimum compressive strength and elastic modulus. Based on results obtained further optimization was progressed. The Differential Sca Read More
