Abstract

The accumulation of heavy metallic ions in the human body causes serious damage. The tracking and removal of these ions is very necessary and that is done via electrochemical sensors because of quick response, high sensitivity, and low but large detection range. In this regard, the surface of the electrode plays a critical role in electrochemical performance. Here, we present a detailed review of work that has been done in the past to modify the surface of electrodes by testing the carbon nanoparticles i.e. graphene or graphene derivatives, and their combination with other nanoparticles. Mixing graphene or graphene oxide with other organic or inorganic materials forms nanocomposites which help to detect various kinds of heavy metal ions such as cadmium, mercury, copper, lead, zinc, etc. in tap water or food items. This review article includes the synthesis methodologies, working mechanisms, advantages, disadvantages, and future prospectus of this field.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the decomposition of organic waste into carbon microparticles under atmospheric conditions. Carbon microparticles are made by drying and carbonizing raw water hyacinth. Then, the carbon microparticles that have been produced are ground using a saw-milling apparatus. Carbon microparticles prepared from raw water hyacinth were heated in an electric heating furnace at a specific temperature for the analysis. The experimental results show that the thermal decomposition process has three steps. Water hyacinth is stable at temperatures below 100°C. As carbon decomposes at higher temperatures, the process of decomposition into smaller molecules occurs. Then, at temperatures ranging from 150 to 280°C, an effective carbonization process occurs to form carbon. The advantages gained, in this case, will provide a better understanding of how to use heat treatment on water hyacinth.

Abstract

Smart packaging has become a key factor in efforts to improve the shelf life and quality of perishable products. The purpose of this study is to analyze the importance of innovation in smart packaging to improve the shelf life and quality of perishable products. The research method used includes an in-depth literature study to gather relevant information to collect data on existing smart packaging innovations. To date, very few studies have been conducted specifically to discuss or propose innovative smart packaging development solutions to improve the shelf life and quality of perishable products. Hopefully, this paper can provide information on various new technologies and materials that can be used in smart packaging to extend the shelf life and maintain the quality of perishable products.

Abstract

Aluminum wastes are widespread in the El Oued region of south-eastern Algeria, particularly in Aluminium workshops and factories. Because aluminum has a high heat conductivity, it can be used to increase the performance of solar stills. Two comparable solar stills were tested for this; one was used as reference solar still SSR, while the other contained Aluminium waste and was used as a modified solar still SSM. When compared to the reference still SSR, the results demonstrate that there is a 33.72 % improvement.

Abstract

The process in the industry requires equipment with high efficiency, especially energy. This is closely related to the need to measure the heat-transfer process in heat exchangers. A study of the effectiveness of a heat exchanger is needed to increase the effectiveness of the heat exchanger because each heat exchanger product created has different effectiveness. This study aims to discuss and explain the calculations in the design of shell and tube-type heat exchangers. A step-by-step method for calculating heat exchanger designs is presented, including reviewing simple cases regarding heat exchanger design calculations. This research has the potential to be used as standard information on how to do step-by-step calculations for heat exchanger design.

Abstract

Theoretical and practical interest in salicylic acid and its derivatives has increased over the last two decades, and with it, academic study in the field has been burgeoning. Most scientometric studies have only focused on a specific property of the topic compounds. None, however, are discussed in the origination progress and prospects of SA and its derivatives. The present study makes a bibliometric review of 2010 papers published during 2000-2021 which were indexed by Scopus in the sub-discipline of salicylic and salicylates. Periodic trends in publishing, as well as prominent research sub-fields, are detected, as are citation patterns, published journal areas of focus, major research institutions, funding organizations, significant research personalities, and the extent to which they interact with one another in research networks. Used keywords indicated the exact publication timeline. Before 2010, the majority of research focused on the synthesis, structure, chemical, and physical properties of salicylic acid and its derivatives. In the past decade, scientists have dedicated significant attention to identifying the bio-properties of the investigated substances.

Abstract

This Project aims to design and fabricate a Sugarcane Bud Chipping Machine. It has been observed that farmers prefer to plant sugarcane directly in the field manually, which is a cumbersome and time-consuming process. Once the problem was identified, an approach was conceptualized to provide a solution. Sugarcane Bud Chipper which cuts the sugarcane buds in smaller sizes for plantation purposes. These buds are smaller than the sugarcane sticks from earlier plantation methods. This machine incorporates various components, assembled uniquely for a desirable output.  The power needed to cut the sugarcane bud is generated from the pedal through human effort. A chain, 137 cm long, was used to link the two sprockets, one was attached to the pedal, while the other sprocket was attached to the arm of the cutting blade. The two sprockets are coupled to two shafts, which transfer force to the arm of the cutting blade. When the pedal is been paddled, mechanical energy leaves the pedal to the cutting unit. The blade holder was attached to the arm of the cutting blade. When the pedal is pressed, the shaft slickly rotates, the cutting unit moves downward and when the pedal is released, the cutting unit returns, upward through the support of the spring. The pedal-powered Sugarcane Bud Chipping Machine is easy to operate and reduces intensive labor. This machine makes operation easier and more comfortable in the process of sugarcane production for rural dwellers who do not have access to a power supply. The use of this machine will improve the economic well-being of local farmers in remote areas.

Abstract

This research involves a systematic process to reduce the effects of heavy metals on health and the environment through the metabolism of human hair. In this study, the by-product of the breakdown of microbial keratinase was keratin; free amino acids and partially degraded peptide/keratin were used as precipitates and adsorbents, respectively, to remove Copper (Cu), Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Zinc (Zn) Cobalt (Co) and Lead (Pb) from pollution. Atomic absorption spectrophotometry is used to measure metal concentrations. Degraded human hair was an efficient but insignificant weight absorber compared to untreated human hair, achieving almost 85.81±0.0077% adsorption for chloride. Our data show that alkaline pH favors lead acetate deposited by the supernatant over neutral and acidic regions. Both treated and untreated human hair showed a significant percentage of ZnSO4 and NiCl2 biosorption, with CuSO4 showing the percentage of precipitation, the lowest percentage of biosorption. Our SEM results suggest that a technology may be required to increase the surface area of treated human hair to increase the adsorption capacity.

Abstract

The lack of drinking water is one of the most important. Solar distillation remains the simple and effective solution to solve this problem, but the yield of solar distillation is low. However, the thermal performance of the solar still is low. Several researchers have made various experimental modifications to improve thermal performance. In this experimental modification, palm fibers were introduced to improve the performance of a solar still. The results showed that when using palm fibers there was an improvement of 35.6 % compared to the conventional still.
