Experimental investigation on the yield of solar still using manganese oxide nanoparticles coated absorber
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Present research expresses an experimental investigation on nanoparticle use to enhance Solar still (SS) yield. Manganese Oxide (MNO2) is selected as a nanoparticle material and used in SS. The nanomaterial is added with ...
Influence of lean premixed ratio of PCCI-DI engine fueled by diesel/biodiesel blends on combustion, performance, and emission attributes; a comparison study
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
The traditional combustion mode which utilized in the DI diesel engine has high and excessive emissions so the most wanted combustion is creating new modes which produce low combustion temperatures and low emissions. The ...
A Smart Colorimetric Platform for Detection of Methanol, Ethanol and Formic Acid
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Carbon dioxide (CO2 ) is a greenhouse gas in the atmosphere and scientists are working on converting it to useful products, thereby reducing its quantity in the atmosphere. For converting CO2, different approaches are used, ...
2D-MXene as an additive to improve the power conversion efficiency of monolithic perovskite solar cells
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
In this study, two-dimensional (2D) material-MXene has been utilized as an additive in perovskite (MAPbI3) from 0 to 20 vol.% with an increment of 5 vol.%. The effect of different vol.% of 2D-MXene on monolithic perovskite ...
Diesel-fired boiler performance and emissions measurements using a combination of diesel and palm biodiesel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Biodiesel is widely accepted as a fuel that is similar to diesel with various advantages. Biodiesel's low-temperature flow qualities are one of its characteristics that limits its use. The goal of this study was to see how ...
Picomolar or beyond Limit of Detection Using Molecularly Imprinted Polymer-Based Electrochemical Sensors: A Review
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2022 , Article)
Over the last decades, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have emerged as selective synthetic receptors that have a selective binding site for specific analytes/target molecules. MIPs are synthetic analogues to the ...
Enhanced corrosion protection of Epoxy/ZnO-NiO nanocomposite coatings on steel
(
MDPI AG
, 2020 , Article)
ZnO-NiO nanocomposite with epoxy coating on mild steel has been fabricated by the sol–gel assisted method. The synthesized sample was used to study corrosion protection. The analysis was performed by electrochemical impedance ...
Study of performance, combustion, and emissions parameters of DI-diesel engine fueled with algae biodiesel/diesel/n-pentane blends
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
Biodiesel extracted from Scenedesmus obliquus algae through transesterification was used in the current study. Due to the disadvantages of using pure biodiesel in engines, it was used as B50 (a blend of 50% diesel and 50% ...
Superhydrophobic al2o3-polymer composite coating for self-cleaning applications
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Superhydrophobic coatings have a huge impact in various applications due to their extreme water-repellent properties. The main novelty of the current research work lies in the development of cheap, stable, superhydrophobic ...
Graphene oxide reinforced polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene glycol blend composites as high-performance dielectric material
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2016 , Article)
Novel flexible dielectric composites composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and graphene oxide (GO) with high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss have been developed using facile and ...
