Recent developments in microbial oils production: a possible alternative to vegetable oils for biodiesel without competition with human food?

Christophe, G; Vinod Kumar; Nouaille, R; Gaudet, G; Fontanille, P; Pandey, A; Soccol, C R; Larroche, C (2012-01)

Since centuries vegetable oils are consumed as human food but it also finds applications in biodiesel production which is attracting more attention. But due to being in competition with food it could not be sustainable and ...
Turmerin, the antioxidant protein from turmeric (Curcuma longa) exhibits antihyperglycaemic effects

Lekshmi, P C; Ranjith, R; Raghu, K G; Nirmala Menon, A (Taylor & Francis, 2012-09)

A wide range of proteinaceous inhibitors are present in plants to protect themselves from hydrolytic enzymes. In this study, turmerin, a water-soluble peptide in turmeric rhizomes, was evaluated for its inhibitory potential ...
Perchlorate, chlorate and bromate in water samples from the south-west coast of India

Anupama, V N; Kannan, K; Prajeesh, P V G; Rugmini Sukumar; Krishnakumar, B (IWA Publishing, 2012)

Occurrence of perchlorate (ClO4 ), chlorate (ClO3 ) and bromate (BrO3 ) in public drinking, open well and surface water sources at 20 locations in the South-West coastal state of Kerala (India) is reported. The analysis ...
Organosolvent pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis of rice straw for the production of bioethanol

Sindhu, R; Binod, P; Rajeev K Sukumaran; Pandey, A (Springer, 2012)

The present study investigates the operational conditions for organosolvent pretreatment and hydrolysis of rice straw. Among the different organic acids and organic solvents tested, acetone was found to be most effective ...
Natural rubber/organoclay nanocomposite from tea (Camellia Sinensis) seed oil derivative

Yahaya, L E; Adebowale, K O; Menon, A R R; Olu-Owolabi, B I (Scientific & Academic Publishing, 2012)

Sodium salt of tea seed oil (TSO-Na) was organomodified with kaolin (China clay). The organo-kaolin was characterized by determining the FTIR and XRD. Results indicated that TSO-Na was successfully intercalated onto the ...
Three dimensional CFD simulation of pneumatic coal injection in a direct reduction rotary kiln

Manju, M S; Savithri, S (Elsevier, 2012)

The pneumatic coal injection and combustion process in a commercial rotary kiln is modeled in this work using a two phase flow theory approach. The physical and chemical phenomena of the turbulent reacting flow is simulated ...
1,3-Metal−carbon bonding and alkyne metathesis: DFT investigations on model complexes of group 4, 5, and 6 transition metals

Suresh, C H; Frenking, G (American Chemical Society, 2012-10-22)

The formation of metallacyclobutadienes (MCBs from chloro-ligated alkylidyne complexes of group 4, 5, and 6 transition metals (MCln(C3H3)) has been studied at the BP86/ def2-TZVPP level. All the MCBs showed M−Cβ distances ...
Periodically grafted Amphiphilic Copolymers: Nonionic analogues of Ionenes

Roy, R K; Bhoje Gowd, E; Ramakrishnan, S (American Chemical Society, USA, 2012)

We describe a novel class of periodically grafted amphiphilic copolymers (PGACs) that could serve as nonionic functional mimics of ionenes, the primary difference being that the periodically occurring charged units along ...
Biodiesel production and prediction of engine performance using SIMULINK model of trained neural network

Sharon, H; Jayaprakash, R; Karthigai Selvan, M; Soban Kumar, D R; Sundaresan, A; Karuppasamy, K (Elsevier, 2012)

Due to depletion and higher prices of crude oil, biodiesel is gaining more importance day by day. Biodiesel is renewable and eco-friendly and its emission profile is much lower than fossil fuels. A large number of researches ...
