Abstract

The existing technologies for processing of pyrite cinder require improvement for complex extraction of non-ferrous, precious metals and iron. The novelty of the technology used in the work for the processing of pyrite cinders is the preliminary chemical activation in a solution of sodium bicarbonate. The optimal activation modes were determined according to temperature, duration, L:S ratio and NaHCO3 concentration. It has been established that activation of pyrite cinder results in changes in phase composition and a reduction in the content of the impurity components P2O5, SO3 and As2O3. The leaching of pyrite cinder after pre-activation in 15 % H2SO4 solution resulted in an extraction into solution, wt. %: CuO 76, 8; ZnO 75, 9 and Fe2O3 26, 0. The degree of extraction of non-ferrous metals in sulphuric acid solution without chemical activation is lower by 15 - 20 %.

Abstract

Nowadays, the usage of the electric vehicle (EV) is exponentially increasing. Therefore, a battery management system (BMS) is required to properly operate the Li-ion battery used in electric vehicles for extending the battery life. The main function of BMS is to sense the voltage, current, and temperature of the battery and cells independently. Further, it evaluates different parameters from the data fetched by the BMS. Finally, based on the evaluation, it controls the cell balancing. Presently, BMS is implemented using different microcontrollers and is under improvement with the advancement in existing technology. Passive balancing is commonly used in BMS, since, it is inexpensive and straightforward to implement. The passive resistor uses the passive balancing method to discharge the battery’s excess charge. For small battery capacities, this resistor is very useful. This paper analyses BMS design which combines a power resistor and transistor as a balancing resistor. The proposed analyses were applied to a battery pack consisting of 13 lithium-ion battery cells which enabled a fast-charging scheme. The most significant features of the passive balancing system are based on the results of this experiment, taking into account the impact on battery performance and energy loss. The aim of this paper is to make a battery pack that is with high energy carrying capability and proper thermal runaway. Thus, extensive monitoring is needed to operate the battery within specified operating limits to avoid fire hazards and explosions. In order to achieve this, the proposed design creates a demand for a Sophisticated management system which not only optimize the power drawn from battery but also maintain the battery operation within specified limits.

Abstract

The oil and gas industry can contribute significantly to sustainable development by mitigating negative environmental impacts, such as equipment failure. Numerous pipeline failures have occurred due to the dramatic expansion of the oil and gas product distribution pipeline network, which is a significant factor in the offshore gas pipeline network's failure. In general, compared to other equipment types in the industry, planning inspections presents more challenges. Due to a lack of jurisdictional requirements regarding inspection intervals and piping methods. This research aims to ensure the reliability by conducting a risk assessment of the likelihood and consequences of equipment failure, mitigating the impact of that risk, and developing a more optimal inspection plan. This study is focused on API Class 5L Pipe 3" GL BO3-52520. The Routine Inspection Technique (RBI) was implemented in 2016 following the API 581 standard. This semi-quantitative approach is built based on operational data and validated inspection results. According to the risk assessment, the pipeline will have a Medium risk level, with metal losses occurring in each segment. Four years after the risk-based inspection assessment, the recommended inspection plan for gas pipelines is four years.

Abstract

Bioplastics such as cellulose nanofibers (CNF) are widely used in daily life as an alternative to plastics. CNF is also considered a biodegradable, readily disposable, and low-cost material, making it suitable as a sensor platform. The mechanically treated CNF has both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties where the hydrophobic sides bond strongly with MWCNTs to provide conductivity on the CNF sheet, while the hydrophilic sides allow the target component to be adsorbed on its laminated structure and react with the electrode surface. From an electrochemical measurement of ferricyanide solution indicated that the MWCNTs modified CNF could act well as electrode. Furthermore, the thin-sheet electrode successfully detected ethanol based on a direct electron transfer (DET) between PQQ-ADH and the MWCNTs on the electrode surface. Aside from its lightweight properties, the developed CNF electrode possesses excellent stretchability, flexibility, and adjustability to human skin, making it ideal for a future wearable skin gas sensor.

Abstract

In engineering design, material selection is the process of choosing the best material for a specific process via a systematic material selection approach. This article described the material selection process for SBR#2 pipeline, which will be installed to flow raw gas from SBR#2 field to the nearest tie-in point. The material selection process starts with design requirement analysis to generate primary function and objectives, including its constraints, determine primary criteria to be evaluated, screen materials candidates based on criteria evaluation, and select the most suitable materials based on very specific requirements. The criteria were evaluated by performing value engineering with the performance criteria matrix tool. Materials selection, in this case, was determined by two main criteria: corrosion resistance and construction ability. Corrosion resistance was evaluated semi-quantitatively by applying NORSOK M-506 2005 spreadsheet, and construction ability were evaluated qualitatively based on field experience. Solid Corrosion Resistance Alloy (CRA)-Stainless Steel 316L pipe is the most suitable for this case.

Abstract

To utilize the concept of Quality Function Deployment (QFD) and apply it appropriately to address design decisions concerning the quality of cellular phones, a simplified version of the House of Quality (HoQ) will be built. Real customer requirements (CRs) are easier to collect when QFD is employed because it puts the emphasis on the customer and their demands where it should be. After gathering various users' opinions on different smartphone brands and conducting an online survey with mobile users in Taichung, Taiwan, the study highlights the items preferred by most users, such as long-lasting battery life, high-quality camera, reliability, wide screen, ease of use, and lightweight. This aids businesses in translating CRs into primary Design Requirements (DRs) so that they can create superior goods that align with consumer demands.

Abstract

The loss of oil fluid flow in the piping system in the petroleum industry due to friction is the cause of low efficiency. To reduce friction loss, the viscosity of petroleum can be lowered by adding water as a mixture. Actually, the flow loss in a piping system is influenced by several factors including flow pattern, fluid type, flow velocity, flow pressure and pipe diameter. This study aims to determine the effect of flow patterns on changes in velocity in the two-phase flow of oil and water in a piping system. This numerical analysis research was carried out using Fluent 6.2 software with variations in the velocity of the oil-water mixture: 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 m/s. The simulation results show that the greatest pressure loss occurs at a fluid velocity of 0.6 m/s where the flow is stratified mixed. While the smallest pressure loss at a mixture velocity of 0.2 m/s when the flow is stratified smooth. From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the increase in fluid flow velocity has a positive correlation with the increase in the value of flow losses in the pipe.

Abstract

The cellulose derivative hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) has recently been extensively studied and used in mechanical applications. However, the softness and susceptibility to deformation of HPMC limited its further applications. In this study, metal nanoparticles (nano-aluminum and nano-copper) and nano-metal oxide particles (nano-alumina and nano-copper oxide) were used as additives to HPMC to form a composite film with improved mechanical properties, particularly load capacity. The addition of high levels of additives provided a higher load capacity. Among the nano-additives used in the study, Cu (2 wt.%) provided the composite with the highest load capacity, improving the load capacity of pure HPMC by 250%. The surface treatment of strengthening additives is an important step. Adding specific high-strength and high-modulus metal and metal oxide additives to the soft HPMC matrix can effectively improve the load-bearing capacity of the composite material. This study proposes a simple evaluation method for the load-bearing capability of the coating as well.
