Eco solution increases fish rehabilitation

The Bull Run Watershed is the primary drinking water supply for the City of Portland in the US. It also plays an important role in supporting the larger aquatic ecosystem of the Sandy and Lower Columbia rivers where, due to warm summer water temperatures, some of the fish species have recently been in significant decline.

Experimental Investigation of Energy Saving Opportunities in Tube Bending Machines

In the scenario of containing the global warming, devising energy savings strategies in industry has become a proper and urgent matter. Since manufacturing is one of the most energy demanding sectors, research and the linked industries started tackling this issue proposing new eco solutions. In this paper, an experimental investigation of the energy saving opportunities in tube bending machines is performed and critically discussed. The analysis is carried out comparing an electrical tube bender and a hydraulic machine of comparable size. The experimental measured are also used to fit energy models that are used to extend the comparison considering different working conditions of the tube-bending machines. The results show that relevant energy savings can be achieved introducing the electrical drives.

The Respective Roles of Metal Salts in The Dissolution Process of Poly(1-oxotrimethylene) in Their Aqueous Solutions

The respective roles of the aqueous solutions of zinc chloride (ZnCl2), calcium chloride (CaCl2), and lithium chloride (LiCl) in the dissolution process of poly(1-oxotrimethylene) (ECO) were investigated. The ECO was soluble only in the ZnCl2-based aqueous solutions. The ZnCl2 aqueous solutions dissolved ECO when the metal salt content exceeded 65 wt%, following a mechanism analogous to Lewis acid/base reaction. In the case of the aqueous solution of 70 wt% ZnCl2, the ECO solubility was limited to 6 wt% because of heterogeneity of the resultant solution. However, an addition of CaCl2 (10 wt%) or LiCl (10 wt%) to the ZnCl2 aqueous solution widened the soluble range of ECO up to 8 wt%. The Cole-Cole plot exhibited that CaCl2 improved homogeneity of the solution but LiCl reduced it. In addition, the addition of both LiCl and CaCl2 decreased the dynamic viscosity of the ECO solutions, which was more noticeable with LiCl.

Modeling quasar central engine as a relativistic radiating star

Long ago Hoyle & Fowler attempted to model the central engine of quasars as hot super-massive stars supported by radiation pressure. Whereas the model of Hoyle & Fowler was Newtonian, here we make a toy model of quasar central engines as ultra relativistic ultrahot plasma or as a ball of radiation. Accordingly, we consider general relativistic gravitational collapse including emission of radiation. More specifically, we discuss a new class of radiating fluid ball exact solution in conformally-flat metric which is quasi-static and contracting at negligible rate. The problem is solved by assuming that the metric potential is separable in to radial and time dependent parts. It is found the gravitational mass of the radiating ball M→0 as comoving time t→∞ in conformity of the idea of an “Eternally Collapsing Object” (ECO) which has been claimed to be the true nature of the so-called “Black Holes”. In particular, we consider here a quasi-static radiation ball having M≈9.507×107M⊙, a radius of ≈2×1014 km, and a luminosity L∞≈9.1×1046 erg/s. Prima-facie, such an ECO solution is compatible with the central compact object of a quasar having comoving lifetime of ≈107 yr and a distantly observed lifetime (u) which could be higher by many orders of magnitude.

Chitosan/sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin nanoparticles as a potential approach for ocular drug delivery

Development of efficient ocular delivery nanosystems remains a major challenge to achieve sustained therapeutic effect. The purpose of this work was to develop chitosan nanoparticles using sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD) as polyanionic crosslinker and to investigate the potential of using those nanostructures as ocular drug delivery systems. Econazole nitrate (ECO) was chosen as model drug molecule. The influence of different process variables (chitosan molecular weight and the concentration of the two ionic agents) on particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, drug content, in vitro release and mucoadhesive properties was investigated. The results showed that the prepared nanoparticles were predominant spherical in shape having average particle diameter from 90 to 673 nm with positive zeta potential values from 22 to 33 mV and drug content values ranging from 13 to 45%. Drug release from optimized nanoparticles was controlled with approximately 50% of the original amount released over a 8 h period. The release profile of nanoparticles followed a zero-order release kinetics. The optimized nanoparticles were tested for their use as ocular drug delivery systems on albino rabbits. The in vivo studies revealed that the prepared mucoadhesive nanoparticles had better ability in sustaining the antifungal effect of ECO than the ECO solution. Therefore, chitosan/SBE-β-CD nanoparticles developed showed a promising carrier for controlled delivery of drug to the eye.

Rheological properties, shear‐dependent electrical resistance, and settling phenomena of polyaniline in ECO solution

AbstractPolyaniline (PAni) was synthesized by the miniemulsion polymerization and dispersed in a poly(epichlorohydrine‐co‐ethylene oxide) (ECO) solution. The rheological properties using an R/S Rheometer and the shear‐dependent electrical resistance using a homemade setup were measured. The addition of PAni particles to the ECO solution causes an increase in the shear stress and shear viscosity and the nature of flow changes from a dilatant to a Newtonian fluid. For both the ECO solution and ECO‐PAni mixture, the viscosity at any particular shear rate is higher during the increasing cycle of shear rate compared with the decreasing cycle of shear rate called hysteresis. The ECO‐PAni mixture executes a step‐like viscosity transition over the shear rate region 50–150 s−1, which is known as shear rate‐induced phase transition. The resistance of ECO solution decreases with the increase in shear rate and reversibly increases with the decrease in shear rate, whereas the resistance of ECO‐PAni mixture increases during both the increasing and decreasing cycles of the shear rate. The difference in resistance at zero shear rate before and after the end of shear cycle is termed as electrical set. The ECO solution and ECO‐PAni mixture exhibit 4% and 79% electrical set in terms of decrease and increase of resistance, respectively. The settling process of PAni in the ECO‐PAni mixture is slower compared with the pure ECO in solution. The settling time of PAni in the ECO‐PAni mixture increases with the decrease in shear rate. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009

Thermal degradation study of poly(1‐oxotrimethylene) in aqueous composite metal salt solutions

AbstractPoly(1‐oxotrimethylene) (ECO) was dissolved in an aqueous composite metal salt solution, and the ECO solution was heated at different temperatures and then used for wet spinning. Within a certain heating time, ECO fibers with a tenacity of 17.6 cN/dtex (2.3 GPa) or greater were successfully produced through hot drawing 16–17 times after drying. Over a certain heating time, however, the strength of the ECO fibers drastically decreased. A higher heating temperature shortened the heating time at which the drastic decrease in the maximum tenacity began. On the basis of ultraviolet measurements of the undrawn fibers, heating ECO in the aqueous composite metal salt solution promoted the thermal degradation of ECO because of aldol condensation or Paal–Knorr furan synthesis. The thermal degradation due to these intermolecular or intramolecular crosslinking reactions was resistant to the molecular orientation of ECO by the hot drawing of the undrawn fibers and reduced the strength of the ECO fibers by producing defects in the filament. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Study of the coagulated structure and fiber strength with wet spinning of aliphatic polyketone with aqueous composite metal salt solutions

AbstractPoly(1‐oxotrimethylene) (ECO) was dissolved in aqueous calcium chloride (CaCl2)/zinc chloride (ZnCl2) composite metal salt solutions, and the solutions had phase‐separation temperatures greater than 0°C. A higher proportion of CaCl2 with respect to ZnCl2 increased the phase‐separation temperature of the ECO solutions. When wet spinning was carried out with a coagulation bath at 2°C, an ECO solution with a higher phase‐separation temperature tended to produce greater ECO fiber strength. Therefore, a higher phase‐separation temperature resulted in coagulated filaments with a denser and more homogeneous cross‐sectional structure. When the metal salt concentration of the coagulation bath was increased with an ECO solution with a phase‐separation temperature of 22°C and a coagulation‐bath temperature of 2°C, the strength of the ECO fibers tended to be lower. Although little difference was observed in the uniformity of the fiber cross sections, a higher metal salt concentration in the coagulation bath facilitated greater spherical growth of the coagulated particles. Large, spherical coagulated particles promoted defects during drawing and thus lowered the strength of the ECO fibers. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 96: 1250–1258, 2005
