The advanced oxidation process (AOP) has become one of the popular methods in which the dye molecules are degraded using microwave irradiation. This method has become popular due to its eco-friendly and cost-efficient characteristics. In this article, the author has reported the degradation of two azo dyes, named methyl orange (MO) and congo red (CR), in the presence of inorganic salts, some additives like charcoal, H2O2, CCl4, tert-butyl alcohol (TBA), glucose and sucrose. A comparative study was conducted to find out the relative degradation rate enhanced by various additives. For both of the dyes, it was found that charcoal was the most effective additive and significantly enhanced the degradation rate mainly due to its high adsorption capability. TBA was found to be the least enhancer. The order of effectiveness based on the irradiation period for MO was 0.01g charcoal > 20 ml NaCl > 20 ml Na2SO4 > 20ml glucose> 10 ml sucrose > 100 μL CCl4 > 200 μL H2O2 > pure MO > TBA.

The objective was to find the proportions of clay and fibers to obtain a mixture that would give better thermal properties. A characterization of the thermal properties was made thanks to the KD2 Pro analyzer on samples of various formulas of mixture clay-plant fibers. The results obtained showed that the thermal properties such as thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity of the clay-fiber mixture samples decrease with the increase of the fiber content in the mixture. Thus, the thermal conductivity of the samples varies from 0.85 to 0.65 W/m.K; from 0.88 to 0.72 W/m.K and from 0.83 to 0.75 W/m.K respectively with Hibiscus cannabinus L. fiber, sawdust and Oryza sativa husk. As for the thermal diffusivity, it varies from 0.37 to 0.25 mm2/s; from 0.45 to 0.30 mm2/s and from 0.47 to 0.27 mm2/s respectively with the addition of Hibiscus cannabinus L. fibers, sawdust and Oryza sativa husk.

The prototype collector could be a viable solution to improve energy efficiency and food security in Burkina Faso and other developing countries, by contributing to the reduction of post-harvest losses and the increase of income for local agricultural producers. The collector is first realized by using black painted cans as air ducts, perforated to increase turbulence, and a glass covering the collection surface. After realization, the collector is connected to the dryer and a measurement campaign is conducted to evaluate the thermal performance of it. The measured parameters are the sunshine and the air temperature by keeping the air speed fixed at 0.3 m/s. The analysis of the results shows an important variation of the air temperature difference going from 0.1°C to 74.4°C, between the inlet and the outlet of the collector for an irradiation which varies between 142 W/m2 and 837 W/m2. The black painted surface of the air ducts as well as the increase in turbulence contributed to improve the efficiency of the collector which varies between 0.94% and 50.68% and allowing to record air temperatures ranging from 27.2°C to 69.2°C inside the dryer. This temperature range is favorable for the drying of most food products.","PeriodicalId":8541,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85454365","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 thermal exchanges that took place in the CPC were presented. A matlab program was developed for the calculation and simulation of the different parameters of the solar concentrator. The differential equations governing the heat transfers in the different components of the device were discretized by the advanced finite difference method. They were solved by the Gauss-Seidel method. As for the experimental part, it consisted in the direct measurement of the global solar radiation, of the ambient temperature and of the fluid temperature by means of thermocouples placed on the different parts of the sensor. The experimental values are directly recorded with a datalogger. A statistical study was made using some indicators like coefficient of determination of R2 , root mean square error (RMSE) and percentage of mean absolute error (MAPE). A validation of the obtained results by comparing the calculated values with the experimental values was presented. The results show that among the three values of the reflectance coefficient, the best results on the temperature of the fluid are obtained with the reflectance coefficient equal to 0.68 on the site of Ouagadougou.","PeriodicalId":8541,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72943118","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 values obtained were higher than their control values but lower than the world recommended safe values. The results obtained in Okpella are slightly higher than that obtained in Ishiagu sites. This could be due to different geological constituents and other mining activities going on at Okpella that might have contributed to the slight change. All the radiological health risk parameter estimated were within their safe values as recommended by UNSCEAR. Comparison of results with other similar works shows positive correlation. We therefore conclude that inhalable suspended particulate matter within quarry sites does not constitute immediate radiological health hazard though precaution should be taken to avoid long term accumulation that can lead to stochastic health risk.","PeriodicalId":8541,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77784527","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}

This is because interaction with an MRI radiofrequency (RF) transmitting field can cause RF burns due to inappropriate equipment. And non-compatible MRI monitoring equipment can give inaccurate readings in the MRI system if the equipment has ferromagnetic components. Preclinical MRI is designed for animals, the model used to study diseases related to humans. Animal models are imaged using a smaller scanner with high magnetic fields like the 4.7T. The main parameters of interest are the respiratory rate, the temperature, the pressure transducer and the electrocardiogram (ECG), this is because the animal model is used as a laboratory experiment for human disease. An MRI-compatible lead Ⅱ ECG simulator, with approximately 0.5 mV output amplitude was attached to the input of the ECG preamplifier to represent a small animal’s signal. The transmitted signal is the ECG, the pressure sensor, the temperature, and the battery (voltage), these are all linked to different channels (outside, near and inside magnet) and were acquired with the pressure sensor pad taped on a male adult volunteer’s thumb to record the human pulse of 70 bpm, which is similar to the respiration rate of an anaesthetized mouse or rat. The use of a signal gating generator should be explored in future work, this could make the monitoring parameters to be independent of the RF pulse influence. Finally, fibre optics should be included in the design process.","PeriodicalId":8541,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Physical and Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77306313","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}
