The adsorption of heavy metal contents (such as lead; Pb and Cadmium; Cd), phase formation, and physical characterization of golden apple snail shells were investigated for use as a calcium source in the production of naturally based biomaterials. The samples were calcined between 700°C and 950°C for 5 hr. TG and DTA analysis of samples demonstrated the decomposition of CaCO3 to CaO. The XRD results demonstrated that natural shell powder has a crystal phase of CaCO3 with an aragonite structure. Furthermore, the CaCO3 (calcite phase) was transformed into calcium oxide (CaO) as a component, which showed that the phase transformation depended on the calcination temperature. The adsorption experiments showed good performance at about 99.6%, 99.7%, and 97% removal efficiency in a shorter time for calcined GAS at 700, 800, and 900°C, respectively. This study suggests that the golden apple snail shell could be an effective biomaterial for heavy removal from contaminated water.","PeriodicalId":509211,"journal":{"name":"Suranaree Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"23 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139280673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The basic properties such as density, pH, surface/interfacial tension of their solvents including dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP), and 2-pyrrolidone (PYR) in Eudragit RS solution and oils (olive oil and camellia oil) were assessed. This research also tested for apparent viscosity of solvent and drug-free and doxycycline hyclate-loaded ERS-based isg and ism, and their phase transformation rates. Density of PYR was higher than that of DMSO whereas these solvents exhibited the less wettability than oils on glass slide. All fabricated doxycycline hyclate-loaded Eudragit RS-based ism formulations showed good emulsion physical stability with no phase separation for 1 hour. The apparent viscosity of ism was significantly less than that of isg. DMSO-based isg and ism exhibited a significantly less viscosity than that of PYR-based formulations. Rapid phase inversion was evident after isg and ism exposure to agarose gel indicating fast solvent exchange. The loose barrier of camellia oil from its less viscosity facilitated a water diffusion inward Eudragit RS-based ism easier than using viscous olive oil. Solvent exchange-induced doxycycline hyclate-loaded Eudragit RS-based ism using DMSO as the solvent and camellia oil as the continuous phase exhibited various appropriate physicochemical characteristics for applying as drug delivery system for periodontitis treatment.","PeriodicalId":509211,"journal":{"name":"Suranaree Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139281133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, each sample was thermally treated at 260-300°C for 5 min during torrefaction process. It was found that both woody biomasses and agricultural residues had mass yield lower than 63wt%, while the bulk density of TBPs were improved higher than 400kg/m3. For equilibrium moisture content (EMC) analysis, TBPs via PBT method had lower EMC than raw pellet after being kept at 30°C for 12 days. For the thermochemical properties, the TBPs had higher FC, %C, and HHVs than raw pellets in all biomasses and increased with torrefaction temperature. When comparing the TBPs between PAT and PBT torrefied pellets, the HHVs of PBT torrefied pellets at 300°C were achieved highest at 27 MJ/kg for SCL sample, leading to lower H/C and O/C ratio closely to that of lignite. In addition, the combustion performance index (Sn) of PAT and PBT torrefied pellets was lower than raw pellets, showing a similar property as coal and lignite. Briefly, this study suggests using PBT pretreatment process to produce high quality solid fuel, particularly for agricultural residues such as SCL for a potential substitute of currently used coal.","PeriodicalId":509211,"journal":{"name":"Suranaree Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"55 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139334419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A simulation is developed considering various scenarios where UEs are at different distances from the NodeB, and either stationary or moving at certain speeds. Results reveal that the Minimum Distance is the most energy efficient algorithm when UEs are nearby the NodeB and moving.

In the existing works, various multiport converter and controlling algorithms are developed for improving the power quality and regulating the voltage of hybrid energy storage systems. Still, some of the models are difficult to understand and require an increased component, high power loss, and reduced efficiency. Therefore, the proposed work intends to develop an ANN-based multiport converter, which helps to regulate the voltage according to the desired level properly. Moreover, this converter has many inputs that are connected and operated simultaneously. The hybrid energy sources considered in this work are solar Photovoltaic (PV) cells, wind, and fuel cells. These sources are connected in parallel, and their output is fed to the non-isolated converter as a single input. Since the input sources fluctuate, their output voltage does not maintain a constant value. In order to maintain the constant outputs, an ANN-based controlling algorithm is deployed in this paper, which helps to boost the level of output voltage properly. In addition to that, the Maximum Peak Point Tracking (MPPT) controlling method is utilized to obtain the maximum energy from the input DC source. Then, a rechargeable battery utilizes the backup supply for power generation. During simulation, the whole system is implemented and tested by using the MATLAB/Simulink platform. The obtained results reveal that the ANN-based controlling technique could efficiently reduce the spikes and maintain the constant output at all times.","PeriodicalId":509211,"journal":{"name":"Suranaree Journal of Science and Technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139339824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
