The fluid flow phenomenon of the problem is constructed using the derivative of the Caputo fractional order 0 1 . As a hybrid method, the dimensionless governing fractional partial differential equation was solved analytically using transforms such as Laplace and Fourier sine. With the Mittag-Leffler function, analytical solutions are achieved for fluid flow, energy distribution, rate of heat transmission, and shear stress. Moreover, limit-case solutions for classical PDEs were given for the derived governing flow model. Graphical depictions, tables, and bar graphs are constructed using \"MATLAB\" for a thorough examination of the problem. The graphical findings suggest that the efficiency of hybrid nanofluids is substantially better with the Caputofractional order approach than with ordinary derivatives. Finally, a comparison with existing literature results is performed and determined to be good.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70702092","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this present research work, algal oil has been extracted from microalgae biomass of Chlorella vulgaris using the Soxhlet apparatus. The algal biomass is ultrasonically pretreated to disrupt the cell walls of Chlorella sp. A total of five homogeneous solvent extractions are performed. As a result, the use of chloroform and isopropanol showed higher algal oil yields of 10.8% and 9.1%, respectively. Therefore, heterogeneous solvent approaches have been used in different volume ratios (5:1 to 1:5) to improve the yield of algal oil. Accordingly, the findings demonstrated that as compared to homogeneous solvents, the use of heterogeneous solvents shows better yield of algal oil from Chlorella sp. biomass. A maximum bio-oil yield of 12.3% was obtained using chloroform and isopropanol at a ratio of 3:3. To improve the extraction yields of algal oil, various parameters were optimized. The optimized parameters include 20 min of ultrasonication time, 3:1 ratio of solvent to biomass, temperature of 50 ℃ , and an extraction period of 90 min. Further, extracted algal oil is characterised using GC-MS, and the results shows the presence of octadecanoic acid in the extracted algal oil. GC-MS analysis of the extracted edalgal oil has shown the suitability of the oil for transesterification reaction for the production of fatty acid methyl esters.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"70702103","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among eleven carbon sources tested, dextrose has been found to be effective followed by sucrose in improving the mycelial growth and sporulation of the fungus. Casein has been identified as a significant nitrogen source responsible for the improvement in fungal growth and sporulation followed by potassium nitrate, phenylalanine and sodium nitrite. When considering the future commercialization of novel biocontrol agents like C. rosea, the current study will be useful in understanding the importance and choice of nutritional sources required for their growth and development of biocontrol agents and chemical analysis of secondary metabolites will be helpful in understanding their mode of action against phytopathogens.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135659503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Box-Behnken design has been used to develop, validate and optimize the statistical model in order to establish the impact of various parameters either alone or in combination followed by characterization of starch. A decrease in pH has increased the extraction of starch while other responses such as TPC and antioxidant activity did not show a significant variation. The yield of total phenolic compound has been improved with decrease in solid to liquid ratio by increasing the solvent volume. The optimum conditions have been found to be 2.5 pH, 24 min extraction time and 1:55 g/mL solid to liquid ratio. Under these conditions, the highest extraction yield of starch and TPC are found to be 13.93 g/100 g and 33.45 mg GAE/g, respectively. No significant variation in antioxidant activity has been observed.

This work highlights the synthesis of series of six imidazolium based ILs ([BMIm]Br, [BMIm]BF 4 , [PMIm]Br, [PMIm]BF 4 , [HMIm]Br, and [HMIm]BF 4 ) along with their influence on dissolution of the TBS. Dissolution–dispersion efficiency of the TBS is evaluated by calculating the residue and absorbance data of the standard solutions along with TBS solution in the presence of solvents independently followed by treatment with synthesized ILs by UV spectroscopy. Dissolution of TBS in heptane is found to be 40%, however it increases to 88% when employed along with 800 ppm of [BMIm]BF 4 . Similarly [PMIm]Br shows extreme dissolution efficiency at 800 ppm up to 80% and 82% in the presence of toluene and heptane, respectively. ILs work by softening the TBS which is accumulated at the bottom of the tank. It also helps in diminishing the use of toxic organic solvents. Interaction of IL product with the suitable solvent can directly influence the dissolution efficiency of TBS. ILs have the potential to replace toxic organic solvents used in oil and gas industry.","PeriodicalId":13388,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Chemical Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135661277","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the industrial effluent bears substantial amount of waste dyes, pesticides and pharmaceuticals wastes and those are carcinogenic in nature. This review is an attempt to cover the adoption of various activated sorbents including, charcoal, activated carbon, clay materials, organic extracts of the plants and nanomaterials for sorption studies of waste contaminates from the different kinds of waste water. The origin of organic pollutants, their nature, development of numerous activated adsorbents, characteristics properties of the sorbents and their suitable adoption for removal of contaminates is systematically discussed.
