The periodic low-frequency force can improve mixing efficiency and reduce water constraint, thus intensifying the high solids enzymatic hydrolysis. However, the availability of intensification methods for the periodic force with different frequencies needs to be studied. The periodic high-frequency vibration with rigid spheres added as another inte...

The present work quantifies the impact of fuel chemistry on burning modes using premixed dimethyl ether (DME), ethanol (EtOH) and methane flames in a back-to-burnt opposed jet configuration. The study considers equivalence ratios 0 ≤ Φ ≤ 1, resulting in a Damköhler (Da) number range 0.06 ≤ Da ≤ 5.1. Multi-scale turbulence (Re ≃ 19,550 and Ret ≃ 360...
This paper describes the He non-thermal plasma treatment of liquid impregnated cotton fabrics. The cotton fabrics were soaked in either H2O, D2O or ethanol after which they were placed in an atmospheric pressure parallel-plate DBD reactor. The influence of the used liquid in combination with the plasma exposure time was studied using OES, FTIR, XPS...
Starch-accumulating microalgae are a potential source of glucose, a valuable industrial feedstock. However, the recalcitrance of their cell wall hinders the enzymatic hydrolysis of the intracellular starch. This work studied starch accumulation, cell wall disruption, and enzymatic hydrolysis of the green microalga Chlorella sorokiniana. Starch accu...
In this work, the isothermal liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) and isobaric vapor-liquid equilibrium (VLE) of the methacrolein-methacrylic acid-water ternary mixture were systematically measured using an LLE cell and improved Rose-Williams still under atmospheric pressure. The thermodynamic consistency of LLE data and VLE data was tested by the Othme...

Detecting high-concentration gases is challenging by metal oxide semiconductor (MOX) gas sensors, because the voltage signal would become saturated. In order to solve this problem, the zooming p + n field-effect transistors (FETs) circuit has been designed, combining an n-type enhancement-mode FET (EMFET) and a p-type depletion-mode FET (DMFET). Th...

The polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane commonly used for separation of biobutanol from fermentation broth fails to meet demand owing to its discontinuous and polluting thermal fabrication. Now, an UV-induced polymerization strategy is proposed to realize the ultrafast and continuous fabrication of the PDMS membrane. UV-crosslinking of synthesized...
