Equilibrium and Kinetic Studies of Zinc (II) Ion Adsorption from Aqueous Solu...IRJESJOURNAL
Abstract:- Water used in industries creates a wastewater that has potential hazards for our environment, because of introducing various contaminates such as heavy metals in to soil and water resources. In this study, a modification method was adopted to enhance metal ion adsorption on soybean hulls using NaOH and citric acid. The batch experiments were carried out to optimize parameters like pH, adsorbent dose, initial concentration and contact time. Equilibrium data were best represented by Freundlich isotherms. The adsorption kinetic data were adequately fitted to the pseudo-second order kinetic model. At optimum conditions of the parameters investigated, 99% removal of Zn (II) was achieved. On the basis of experimental results MSH was found to be an excellent adsorbent for the Zn (II) removal from wastewater.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.

4. INTRODUCTION:
The various material processing techniques presently in use
can be broadly classified into two categories according to the
energy used in the technique.
Physical processing and chemical processing.
Natural science or engineering systems are generally classified
into three categories – physical , chemical and biological.
The use of microorganisms to remove metal from a workpiece
is known as biological machining or biomachining.
The machining process of using lithotropic bacteria.
In order to remove material from metal parts, contrasted with
chemical machining methods such as chemical milling and
physical machining methods such as milling.
5. INTRODUCTION:
Thiobacillus ferro-oxidans and Thiobacillus thio-oxidans are
used in the mineral refinement process of bioleaching.
Utilize the chemical energy from oxidation of iron or copper to
fix carbon dioxide from the air.
A metal object, when placed in a culture fluid containing these
metal-metabolizing bacteria causes material removed from its
surface over time.
Ideal for micromachining due to its very low material removal
rate.
Less likely to leave an undesirable surface finish neither
chemical nor physical energy is concentrated on the cutting
area.
6. INTRODUCTION:
The possibility of a damaged or burned surface is slim.
Conversely to mechanical methods, the use of readily available
microorganisms is low-energy consuming, and no thermal
damage is caused during biomachining.
The performance of this sustainable process is assessed by the
material removal rate.
This biological technique used for machining simple and
complex shapes, such as series of linear, circular, and square
micro patterns on different metal surfaces
7. INTRODUCTION:
There exist many kinds of micro-organisms whose actions can
be considered as a kind of material processing.
Bacteria are broadly classified as:
8. MECHANISM:
Acidiothiobacillus Ferro-oxidans is a non-sporulating rod-
shaped bacterium that is about 1 µm long and 0.5 µm in
diameter.
The ability of A. Ferrooxidans to leach and mobilize metals
from solid materials possibly involves three principles:
10. MECHANISM:
The reactions involved in bio-machining can be characterized as a
biological redox reaction and can be described as:
The first part of these reactions - continuous conversion of
Fe2+ to Fe3+ by bacterial metabolism, which involves the
transfer of electrons from ferrous iron.
The second process - completed by the uptake of electrons by
oxygen and combining with H+ ions, resulting in water.
11. MECHANISM:
Goal of these two processes - produce useable energy for the
bacteria.
Energy-creating process forms a closed system for Fe2+ ions as
they are continuously converted to Fe3+, exuded from the cell,
reduced to Fe2+ by their reaction with copper or iron, and
then reabsorbed into the periplasmic space for re-oxidation.
H+ ions are consumed continuously and water is produced.
Hence if the metabolic activity of bacteria can be improved by
tuning process conditions such as temperature, shaking rate,
and H+ ions (pH), the most crucial shortcoming of
biomachining can be eliminated.
12.
13. METHODS & MATERIALS:
The experimental procedure of biomachining consists of four
major steps.
1. Bacteria culturing
2. Workpiece preparation
3. Bacterial density measurement
4. Metal removal rate calculation
The mask pattern used to form the grooves was previously
prepared on the workpiece by the photolithography process.
Bacteria have been employed to leach iron, copper and
uranium(3) from ore.
14. METHODS & MATERIALS:
The machined groove contour on the workpiece was measured
by a surface profile meter.
Mean depth of grooves was defined as the removed amount.
Figure shows SEM micrograph.
As can be seen in these figures
the grooves were machined with
an approximately uniform depth.
15. METHODS & MATERIALS:
The FeSO4 solution was prepared separately and sterilized with
0.2 µm filter paper.
The basal salts were autoclaved at 121°C for 15 minutes.
Both solutions were mixed upon cooling.
pH was adjusted to 2.0 for both solutions using H2SO4.
pH of culturing media was adjusted only at the start of
culturing and did not maintained during experiments.
16. METHODS & MATERIALS:
The bacterial density remains almost constant for 48 hours to
60 hours.
So the bacterial solution was used after 48 hours of culturing
for all experiments.
After culturing for 48 hours, the work-pieces were put into
flasks containing 200 mL of bacterial solution.
The flasks were then incubated at specific temperatures and
shaking speeds.
At the end of each machining period i.e. 12, 24, 36, 48, and 60
hours, the workpieces were removed, rinsed with DI water, air
dried, and weighed to calculate the MRR and SMRR.
17. METHODS & MATERIALS:
The formulae used to measure MRR and SMRR are given
below.
TMR was calculated by taking total mass removed during full
experiment, divided by the corresponding time of
biomachining i.e. 48 hours.
18. PARAMETERS:
The groove depth increased almost linearly with the machining
time using the culture fluid with the bacteria.
This suggests that Thiobacillus ferrooxidans can be used for
machining iron and the removed amount can be controlled by
the machining time.
Experiments showed mean removed rate for iron reached
about 14 pm per hour.
The mean removed rate increased with the shaking rate, and
reached a constant value at 160 cpm.
This indicates that it is necessary for bacteria to make contact
many times with the workpiece surface due to the shaking
motion in order to reach a constant removed rate.
19. PARAMETERS:
The mean removed rate of pure copper is higher than that of
pure iron for any shaking rate.
Some mineralogists have been investigating the possibility of
using Thiobacillus ferrooxidans for bacteria leaching of low-
grade ore particularly copper and uranium ore(3).
Two bacteria leaching mechanisms have been proposed.
One is the direct leaching mechanism, in which the bacteria
stick to the surface of ore and oxidize the sulfur component to
generate sulfuric acid.
20. PARAMETERS:
Another is the indirect-leaching mechanism.
In which chemical oxidation of Fe allows the metal component
in the ore to leach as metal sulfuric salt. For example, the
leaching mechanism for uranium ore is presented as follows:
In this mechanism Thiobacillus ferrooxidans has the effect of
oxidizing Fe2+ to Fe3+. It is very difficult to identify the actual
leaching mechanism in practical leaching processes; both of
them appear to operate simultaneously.
22. EFFECT OF SHAKING RATE VARIATION:
The experiments revealed an increasing trend in the MRR and
SMRR with increasing shaking rate.
Increasing the shaking rate can increase SMRR in two possible
ways:
(i) By increasing the enzymatic production of acid in the direct
leaching mechanism due to better oxygen transfer.
(ii) By increasing the indirect leaching mechanism with faster
interaction of ferric ions with metal.
In non-shaking conditions, there is an issue of clump or colony
formation at the bottom of the flask.
23. EFFECT OF SHAKING RATE VARIATION:
Shaking helps in making nutrients available everywhere in
culture and prevents bacterial colonization at the bottom of
the flask.
The increase in SMRR is due to an increase in amount of
oxygen available to the bacteria at the same pH and
temperature.
Bacterial metabolism is affected by the oxygen concentration,
which is one of the important reactants of the reaction.
By shaking, the oxygen concentration becomes almost uniform
everywhere in culture, resulting in mass transfer of the
oxidized metallic products near the machining point.
24. EFFECT OF SHAKING RATE VARIATION:
An overall decreasing trend of MRR was observed with
increasing machining time.
The reason can be clearly understood by the characteristic
equation of biomachining, Fe2+ ions that are converted to
Fe3+ ions by the bacteria are recycled by reacting with metal
workpiece.
Other half reaction, development of water from H+ ions and
oxygen, utilizes H+ ions continuously.
As concentration of H+ ions is not maintained in these
experiments, so due to consumption of these H+ ions, balance
of biomachining process is disturbed resulting in inability of
bacteria to further convert Fe2+ ions to Fe3+ ions.
Consequently, the metal removal rate of biomachining reaction
starts decreasing.
25. EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE VARIATION:
The effect of temperature variation on MRR and SMRR during
biomachining was observed by performing experiments at
different temperatures.
The temperature has a positive effect on SMRR. From 25°C, 5°C
increases in temperature result in average increases of 0.110,
0.445 and 0.2205 mg/hr.cm² for bacterial density of 1×108
cells/mL.
The MRR increases from 22.68 mg/hr. at 25°C to the highest
value of 47.54 mg/hr. at 40°C for 12 hours of biomachining.
26. EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE VARIATION:
The reason for this behavior is that bacteria are made up of
certain types of proteins, which have a definite optimum
temperature.
These proteins work well at the optimum temperature, and
any increase in temperature within permissible range
enhances the metabolic activity of the bacteria.
But if the temperature is increased above the optimal
temperature, it produces conformal changes in these proteins,
resulting in their inactivity.
In contrast, if the temperature is decreased below the
optimum growth temperature, it does not inhibit bacteria but
instead just reduces their growth.
27. EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE VARIATION:
The decreasing trend of MRR with increasing machining time
was also observed during these experiments.
The reason is that, rise in temperature can increase the
metabolic activity of bacteria, but cannot compensate the
deficiency of H+ ions concentration in the solution.
Consequently, MRR decreases with the increase in machining
time.
28. EFFECT OF FeSO4 CONCENTRATION:
The effect of FeSO4 concentration variation on MRR and SMRR
during biomachining experiments was observed by performing
experiments with these bacterial solutions having different
FeSO4 concentrations.
An average increase was achieved with increase in FeSO4
concentration.
Considering the direct mechanism, the number of electrons
transferred to the cell wall of the bacteria increased with the
increase in ferrous ions (Fe2+), resulting in better SMRR.
If the indirect mechanism is supposed to be responsible for
biomachining, the increase in Fe2+ ion concentration would
result corresponding increase of Fe3+ ions.
29. EFFECT OF FeSO4 CONCENTRATION:
In following experiments, a decrease in MRR with increase in
machining time was observed due to the consumption of H+
ions during biomachining reaction.
It was perceived concentration of the H+ ions is maintained
during biomachining experiments, the decreasing trend of
MRR can be eliminated.
30. EFFECT OF pH VARIATION:
In following experiments, a decrease in MRR with increase in
machining time was observed due to the consumption of H+
ions during biomachining reaction.
It was perceived concentration of the H+ ions is maintained
during biomachining experiments, the decreasing trend of
MRR can be eliminated.
The MRR increases from 40.52 mg/hr. at pH 2.0 to the highest
value of 56.391 mg/hr. at pH 2.5 for 12 hours of biomachining.
Then, it decreases to 43.625 mg/hr. at pH 3.0.
The decreasing trend of MRR was also seen in following
experiments.
31. EFFECT OF pH VARIATION:
The reason for this behavior is that even the initial pH values
are changed but these values are not controlled during
biomachining experiments.
If the consumption of H+ ions is compensated by adding H+
ions in the form of H2SO4 during biomachining experiments,
this decreasing trend can possibly be eliminated.
32. CONCLUSION:
Micro-manufacturing is one of the growing technologies of near future.
Non-traditional machining processes have been found to be beneficial for
micro manufacturing using low density of energy for metal removal. To
overcome environment related problems of chemical machining,
biomachining has been developed over several years by making use of the
metabolic activity of microorganisms. Besides many advantages of
biomachining such as environmental friendly, low consumption of energy
and no heat affected zone generation during machining; one of the
common short comings reported by early researchers is a low metal
removal rate. In this study, firstly effect of process parameters variation on
SMRR and MRR is investigated. Secondly taguchi design of experiment
(DOE) approach is used to establish rank of most influential process
parameters for maximum metal removal rate. Finally optimal values of
selected parameters are predicted and verified. It is observed that process
parameters can be optimized to obtain a higher metal removal rate. Micro
features are fabricated using optimum process parameters to show the
impact of fine tuning on the metal removal rate.
