A Quasi-Three-Dimensional Approach to Predict the Performance of Steam Surface Condensers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A quasi-three-dimensional numerical procedure is proposed to simulate the fluid flow and heat transfer in the shell-side of steam surface condensers. The proposed procedure is applied to an ...
Nitrate Removal in Sulfur: Limestone Pond Reactors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The feasibility of using sulfur:limestone autotrophic denitrification (SLAD) pond reactors to treat nitrate-contaminated water or wastewater after secondary treatment was investigated with four lab-scale continuously fed ...
On the Limit of Surface Integrity of Alumina by Ductile-Mode Grinding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper investigates both experimentally and theoretically the subsurface damage in alumina by ductile-mode griding. It found that the distribution of the fractured area on a ground mirror ...
Sorption of Testosterone to Soil Colloids of Different Size Fractions: Development of a Centrifugation and Mass Balance–Based Methodology
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Sorption and Desorption of Testosterone at Environmentally Relevant Levels: Effects of Aquatic Conditions and Soil Particle Size Fractions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sorption and desorption have been found to be critical in the fate and transport of hormones in soils. Previous study indicated that the sorption and desorption properties of soil particles of different size fractions ...

Forward Osmosis: Mass Transmission Coefficient–Based Models for Evaluation of Concentration Polarization under Different Conditions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In the past, forward osmosis (FO) models were developed to evaluate the effects of concentration polarization (CP), including external CP (ECP) and internal CP (ICP), on FO performance. However, these models are not clear ...
Development of a Response Surface for Prediction of Nitrate Removal in Sulfur–Limestone Autotrophic Denitrification Fixed-Bed Reactors
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Sulfur–limestone autotrophic denitrification (SLAD) processes are very efficient for treatment of ground or surface water contaminated with nitrate. However, detailed information is not available on the interaction among ...
A Novel Approach to Drug Delivery for Hepatities C Virus (HCV) for High Immune Responses
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Hepatities C Virus (HCV) is a significant health problem worldwide due to the lack of effective vaccines. HCV plasmid DNA (pDNA) vaccine represents a promising means to induce a Th1-biased ...
