Influence of Physicochemical Properties of Oil Sludge on Syngas Production for Energy Applications by Hiago Oliveira, Isabela Pinheiro, Ana Ramos, Osvaldo Venturini, Adriano Mariano, York Santiago

“…The high ash content of OS reduced gasification temperatures, increasing char yield (44.6%). Increasing the equivalence ratio (ER) led to higher gasification temperatures, producing energetic species such as H₂, CH₄, and CO, raising the calorific value of the resulting syngas. …”

Ultrasonic Investigations of Molecular Interaction in Binary Mixtures of Benzyl Benzoate with Acetonitrile and Benzonitrile by N. Jaya Madhuri, P. S. Naidu, J. Glory, K. Ravindra Prasad

“…Ultrasonic velocity, density and viscosity have been measured in the binary mixtures of benzyl benzoate with acetonitrile, benzonitrile at three temperatures 30, 40 and 50 °C. From the experimental data, thermodynamic parameters like adiabatic compressibility, internal pressure, enthalpy, activation energy etc., were computed and the molecular interactions were predicted based on the variation of excess parameters in the mixture. …”

Increasing Thermal Stability of Gelatin by UV-Induced Cross-Linking with Glucose by Evan M. Masutani, Christopher K. Kinoshita, Travis T. Tanaka, Andrew K. D. Ellison, Brandon A. Yoza

“…Experiments conducted with a differential scanning calorimeter indicate that ultraviolet irradiation of gelatin-glucose hydrogels dramatically increases thermal stability such that no melting is observed at temperatures of at least 90°C. The addition of glucose significantly increases the yield of cross-linked product, suggesting that glucose has a role in cross-link formation. …”
