The document presents a dynamic two-phase model for a fluidized bed reactor used to produce polypropylene. The model divides the reactor into an emulsion phase and bubble phase, with reaction assumed to occur in both phases. Simulation results show the temperature profile is lower than previous single-phase models due to considering both phases. Approximately 13% of the produced polymer comes from the bubble phase, demonstrating the importance of accounting for both phases.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this paper is to determine the effect of temperature on aromatic yield content of heavy treated Naphtha from Nigerian crude during catalytic reforming. The catalytic reformer was simulated using Aspen Hysys catalytic reformer template configured as four beds while treated heavy Napthene from Bonga Crudewas used as feed stock. The outlet concentrations of paraffins, naphthenes and aromatics volume (Vol.% ) at different temperature of the reformer were recorded. It was observed that an increase in temperature leads to an increase in the concentration of aromatics as the volume of aromatic yield at 430oC was 23.46 % volume while at 540oC it was 51.38% volume showing a significant increase in the aromatic yield level.

Abstract MTBE or Methyl Tertiary Butyl Ether is an organic compound, which is used to increase the gasoline Octane Number. At the beginning of 80’s, by discovering the undesirable effects of tetra ethyl lead usage in fuel, MTBE started to be used worldwide. But gradually the undesirable effects of MTBE on environment had been revealed. There are many technologies for MTBE removal from polluted water. Adsorption is the most conventional and economical technology. In this research, some experiments have been done for studying the adsorption of MTBE on different solid adsorbent in batch process. In these experiments a fixed amount of adsorbents including Granular Activated Carbon (GAC), Powdered Activated Carbon (PAC) and the Husk Rice Carbon (HRC) have been put in different one litter covered vessels containing water polluted with known initial MTBE concentration and stirring them. By measuring MTBE concentration in the vessel at different times the effect of different operating parameters such as temperature and pH have been studied on adsorption and optimum condition have been determined. The batch experimental results have been used to calculate the constant parameters of Freundlich and Langmuir adsorption isotherm equations for these systems.

Deactivation Modeling through Separable Kinetics of Coking On Ni/CZ Catalyst ...IOSR Journals
Abstract : Steam methane reforming (SMR) is a very significant technique to produce hydrogen from fossil fuels. In this particular work, nickel is used as the active metal and ceria-zirconia (CZ) bi-metallic oxide is used as the support. The foremost challenge to this process is sooting or coking over the catalyst surface and blocking the active sites. For the economic viability of the catalyst, it is very significant to make it coke deposition resistant. This is the reason that the kinetic modeling of the deactivation is very important. Therefore, this paper is aimed to model the deactivation and activity of the catalyst. A rate model of the deactivation process is also developed using separable kinetics. A comparison with commercial catalyst is also reported to show that the Ni/CZ catalyst is much more stable towards the coking. Keywords –Coking, Deactivation, Methane, Separable kinetics, Steam reforming.

Mechanism of the Reaction of Plasma Albumin with Formaldehyde in Ethanol - Wa...IOSR Journals
The Spectrophotometric determination of the acid dissociation/ionisation constant (pKa) of plasma albumin-formaldehyde adduct in both water solution and Ethanol solutions was carried out in this study. The pKa values obtained in both media were used to establish the Bronsted-linear type constants from plots of pKa against logarithm of second order rate constants obtained at varying pHs in the study. The result of the pKa values obtained in both water solution and ethanol-water mixtures were found to be in the range of 5.0 - 8.0. This pointed to the fact that only lysine residue with pKa value 8.3 that might have possibly reacted with formaldehyde in this reaction of all the known amino acid residues in plasma albumin. The corresponding Brønsted-type plots proportionality constants (β) for the reaction in water and ethanol-water mixtures were found to be β = 0.059 and 0.0057 respectively. The reaction mechanisms that have low values for proportionality constants α or β are considered to have a transition state closely resembling the reactant with little proton transfer (Cox et al, 1988). Thus, one would suggest that the cross-linking of formaldehyde with plasma albumin in water and ethanol-water mixtures proceeds through little proton transfer

Biomass is considered as a potential source of energy production.Gasification can be employed to convert
dilute biomass energy source in to gaseous products holding concentrated form of energy. A steady state model for fluidized
bed biomass gasifier is developed based on reaction kinetics and hydrodynamic aspects of fluidization. The presence of
sorbent for absorption of carbon dioxide from the product gas is also incorporated in the model.The developed model
predicts the variation of syngas composition, temperature, pressure and velocity along the height of gasifier. Experiments
were carried out in a lab scale fluidized bed biomass gasifier and the results were used to validate the model.An increase of
50.35% in H2 mole fraction and a decrease of 50.88 % in CO2 mole fraction were observed when CaO was used as the
sorbent.

CHARACTERIZATION AND EMISSION ANALYSIS OF PREMIXED AND PREHEATED POROUS RADIA...BIBHUTI BHUSAN SAMANTARAY
Experiments were conducted in porous radiant burners of different
configurations. Each of the burner used in the investigation was characterized
with array of pores, number of pores, pore diameter and porosity geometry. The
fuel used in the studies was Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG). The experimental
results are presented in-terms of the performance and emission from PRBs of
different configurations available in the market used for cooking. This work focuses
to characterize the performance and emission analysis of PRBs. The characterization
of each burner was carried out by the help of a horizontal floor type
profile projector (Metzer-M, Model: 806A). The temperature field at various
flame zones was measured by the help of both FLUKE IR camera (Model: Ti32)
and K-type thermocouples. Thermal efficiency of each of the burner was determined
by calculating the heat gained by the water and the container subjected for
heating and the amount of fuel consumed during the process. Parameters like
convective heat transfer coefficient (h), fuel density, firing rate and thermal efficiency,
were computed by using suitable empirical formulae. The maximum thermal
efficiency obtained was 64.59% and found good agreement with the previous
data in the open literature.

The increasing demand for natural river sand supply for the use in construction industry along
with the issue of environmental problem posed by the dumping of cockle shell, a by-product from cockle
business have initiated research towards producing a more environmental friendly concrete. This research
explores the potential use of cockle shell as partial sand replacement in concrete production. Cockle shell used
in this experimental work were crushed to smaller size almost similar to sand before mixed in concrete. A total
of six concrete mixtures were prepared with varying the percentages of cockle shell viz. 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%,
20% and 25%. All the specimens were subjected to continuous water curing. The compressive strength test was
conducted at 28 days in accordance to BS EN 12390. Finding shows that integration of suitable content of
crushed cockle shell of 10% as partial sand replacement able to enhance the compressive strength of concrete.
Adopting crushed cockle shell as partial sand replacement in concrete would reduce natural river sand
consumption as well as reducing the amount of cockle shell disposed as waste.

The vertical (trans-placental) transmission of the parasite Plasmodium falciparum from
pregnant mother to fetus during gestational period was investigated in a clinical research involving 43 full term
pregnant women in selected Hospitals in Jimeta Yola, Adamawa State Nigeria. During the observational study,
parasitemia was determined by light microscopic examination of umbilical and maternal peripheral blood film
for the presence of the trophozoites of Plasmodium falciparum. Correlational analysis was then carried on the
result obtained at p<0.05.><0.05) was established between maternal peripheral blood and umbilical cord
blood parasitemia with Pearson’s correlation coefficient of 0.762. Thus, in a malaria endemic area like Yola,
Adamawa State, Nigeria, with a stable transmission of parasite, there is a high probability of vertical
transmission of Plasmodium falciparum parasite from mother to fetus during gestation that can be followed by
the presentation of the symptoms of malaria by the newborn and other malaria related complications. Families
are advised to consistently sleep under appropriately treated insecticide mosquito net to avoid mosquito bite and
subsequent infestation.
Review: Nonlinear Techniques for Analysis of Heart Rate VariabilityIJRES Journal
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measure of the balance between sympathetic mediators of heart
rate that is the effect of epinephrine and norepinephrine released from sympathetic nerve fibres acting on the
sino-atrial and atrio-ventricular nodes which increase the rate of cardiac contraction and facilitate conduction at
the atrio-ventricular node and parasympathetic mediators of heart rate that is the influence of acetylcholine
released by the parasympathetic nerve fibres acting on the sino-atrial and atrio-ventricular nodes leading to a
decrease in the heart rate and a slowing of conduction at the atrio-ventricular node. Sympathetic mediators
appear to exert their influence over longer time periods and are reflected in the low frequency power(LFP) of
the HRV spectrum (between 0.04Hz and 0.15 Hz).Vagal mediators exert their influence more quickly on the
heart and principally affect the high frequency power (HFP) of the HRV spectrum (between 0.15Hz and 0.4
Hz). Thus at any point in time the LFP:HFP ratio is a proxy for the sympatho- vagal balance. Thus HRV is a
valuable tool to investigate the sympathetic and parasympathetic function of the autonomic nervous system.
Study of HRV enhance our understanding of physiological phenomenon, the actions of medications and disease
mechanisms but large scale prospective studies are needed to determine the sensitivity, specificity and predictive
values of heart rate variability regarding death or morbidity in cardiac and non-cardiac patients. This paper
presents the linear and nonlinear to analysis the HRV.

Wear Analysis on Cylindrical Cam with Flexible RodIJRES Journal
Firstly, the kinetic equation of spatial cylindrical cam with flexible rod has been established. Then, an
accurate cylindrical cam mechanism model has been established based on the spatial modeling software
Solidworks. The dynamic effect of flexible rod on mechanical system was studied in detail based on the
mechanical system dynamics analytical software Adams, and Archard wear model is used to predict the wear of
the cam. We used Ansys to create finite element model of the cam link, extracted the first five order mode to
export into Adams. The simulation results show that the dynamic characteristics of spatial cylindrical cam
mechanical system with flexible rod is closed to ideal mechanism. During the cam rotate one cycle, the collision
in the linkage with a clearance occurs in some special location, others still keep a continuous contact, and the
prediction of wear loss is smaller than rigid body.

Aiming at the poor dynamic performance and low navigation precision of traditional fading
Kalman filter in BDS dynamic positioning, an improved fading Kalman filter based on fading factor vector is
proposed. The fading factor is extended to a fading factor vector, and each element of the vector corresponds to
each state component. Based on the difference between the actual observed quantity and the predicted one, the
value of the vector is changed automatically. The memory length of different channel is changed in real time
according to the dynamic property of the corresponding state component. The actual observation data of BDS is
used to test the algorithm. The experimental results show that compared with the traditional fading Kalman filter
and the method of the third references, the positioning precision of the algorithm is improved by 46.3% and
23.6% respectively.

In order to analyze the temperature distribution of the low-temperature radiant floor heating system
that uses the condensing wall-hung boiler as the heat source, the heating system is designed according to a typical
house facing south in Shanghai. The experiments are carried out to study the effects of the supply water
temperature on the thermal comfort of the system. Eventually, the supply water temperature that makes people in
the room feel more comfortable is obtained. The result shows that in the condition of that the outside temperature
is 8~15℃ and the relative humidity is 30~70%RH, the temperature distribution in the room is from high to low
when the height is from bottom to top. The floor surface temperature is highest, but its uniformity is very poor.
When the heating system reaches the steady state, the air temperature of the room is uniform. When the supply
water temperature is 63℃ The room is relatively comfortable at the above experimental condition.

Rice stem borer is one of the important pests that attack plants so as to reduce production. One way
to control pests is to use organic fertilizers that make the plant stronger and healthier. This study was conducted
to determine the effects of organic fertilizers with various doses without the use of pesticides in controlling stem
borer, Scirpophaga incertulas. Methods using split-split plot design which consists of two levels of the whole
plot factor (solid and liquid organic fertilizers), two levels of the subplot factor (conventional and industry,
Tiens and Mitraflora), and four levels of the sub-subplot factor of conventional and industry (5, 10, 15, 20
tonnes/ha), and one level of the sub-subplot factor of Tiens and Mitraflora (each 2 ml/l). Based on the results
Statistical analysis there were no significant differences among treatments and this shows that the use of organic
fertilizers that only a dose of 5 tonnes/ha is sufficient available nutrients that make plants more robust and
resistant to control stem borer, besides that can reduce production costs and friendly to the environment when
compared with using inorganic fertilizers.

A novel high-precision curvature-compensated bandgap reference (BGR) without using op-amp
is presented in this paper. It is based on second-order curvature correction principle, which is a weighted sum of
two voltage curves which have opposite curvature characteristic. One voltage curve is achieved by first-order
curvature-compensated bandgap reference (FCBGR) without using op-amp and the other found by using W
function is achieved by utilizing a positive temperature coefficient (TC) exponential current and a linear
negative TC current to flow a linear resistor. The exponential current is gained by using anegative TC voltage to
control a MOSFET in sub-threshold region. In the temperature ranging from -40℃ to 125℃, experimental
results implemented with SMIC 0.18μm CMOS process demonstrate that the presented BGR can achieve a TC
as low as 2.2 ppm/℃ and power-supply rejection ratio(PSRR)is -69 dB without any filtering capacitor at 2.0 V.
While the range of the supply voltage is from 1.7 to 3.0 V, the output voltage line regulation is about1 mV/ V
and the maximum TC is 3.4 ppm/℃.
Structural aspect on carbon dioxide capture in nanotubesIJRES Journal
In this work we reported the carbon dioxide adsorption (CO2) in six different nanostructures in order
to investigate the capturing capacity of the materials at nanoscale. Here we have considered the three different
nanotubes including zinc oxide nanotube (ZnONT), silicon carbide nanotube (SiCNT) and single walled carbon
nanotube (SWCNT). Three different chiralities such as zigzag (9,0), armchair (5,5) and chiral (6,4) having
approximately same diameter are analyzed. The adsorption binding energy values under various cases are
estimated with density functional theory (DFT). We observed CO2 molecule chemisorbed on ZnONT and
SiCNT’s whereas the physisorption is predominant in CNT. To investigate the structural aspect, the tubes with
defects are studied and compared with defect free tubes. We have also analyzed the electrical properties of tubes
from HOMO, LUMO energies. Our results reveal the defected structure enhance the CO2 capture and is
predicted to be a potential candidate for environmental applications.

Abstract: A two-phase model is proposed for describing the dynamics of a fluidized bed reactor used for
polypropylene production. In the proposed model, the fluidized bed is divided into an emulsion and bubble
phase where the flow of gas is considered to be plug flow through the bubbles and perfectly mixed through the
emulsion phase. Similar previous models, consider the reaction in the emulsion phase only. In this work the
contribution of reaction in the bubble phase is considered and its effect on the overall polypropylene production
is investigated the kinetic model is combined with hydrodynamic model in order to develop a comprehensive
model for gas-phase propylene copolymerization reactor. Simulation profiles of the proposed model were
compared with those of well mixed model for the emulsion phase temperature. The simulated temperature
profile showed a lower rate of change compared to the previously reported models due to lower polymerization
rate. Model simulation showed that about 13% of the produced polymer comes from the bubble phase and this
considerable amount of polymerization in the bubbles should not be neglected in any modeling attempt.
Keywords: propylene Copolymerization, Fluidized bed, Modeling, Gas phase.
I. Introduction
Gas-phase polymerization of propylene in a fluidized bed has several advantages over other polypropylene
production processes due to low operating pressure and temperatures of about 75-110 ºC and 20-40 bar
respectively with superficial gas velocity from 3Umf to 8Umf.The fluidized bed reactors have been modeled
previously as two phase reactors to describe the performance of gas-phase propylene polymerization reactors.
In these models, it was assumed that the reactions take place only in the emulsion phase due to the assumption
that the bubbles are solid-free McAuley et al .assumed the polymerization reactor to be a continuously stirred
tank reactor and Choi and Ray assumed the polymerization reactor comprises of two phases i.e. emulsion phase
and the bubble phase. Fernandez andLona assumed a three-phase model with plug flow and Hatzantonis et al
studied the effect of varying bubble size on the behavior of the reactor assuming the bubble phase was divided
into N well mixed compartments in series and the size of each compartment was set equal to the bubble
diameter at the corresponding bed height. In this work, a dynamic mathematical model to describe the kinetic
behavior, production rate, temperature and concentration profile is done, where the reactions are assumed to
occur in the bubble as well as the emulsion phase.
II. Reactor modeling
A flow diagram of gas-phase polypropylene production process is shown in Fig.1.Ziegler-Natta catalyst and
triethyl aluminum co-catalyst are charged continuously to the reactor. The feed gas comprises propylene,
ethylene, hydrogen, and nitrogen gases and they provide the fluidization through the distributor, as heat transfer
media and also supply reactants for the growing polymer particles. The solid-free gas is then combined with
fresh feed stream after heat removal and recycled back to the gas distributor with conversion per pass through
the bed from 1 to 5% and the overall monomer conversion from 98%.The polypropylene product is continuously
withdrawn from near the base of the reactor and above the gas distributor and the unreacted gas is recovered
from the product. In this study, the bubble phase flow pattern is assumed to be plug flow while the emulsion
phase is considered to be completely mixed, with the following assumptions made:
• Polymerization takes place both in the bubble and the emulsion phases.
• Mass and heat transfer resistances between the gas and solid polymer particles in the emulsion phase can
be neglected (small catalyst particles and low to moderate catalyst activity.
• Radial concentration and temperature gradients in the reactor can be neglected. Based on the model
assumptions the rate of reaction for each component assuming the monomers are mainly consumed through

the propagation reactions, was obtained from Mc Auley et al, and the proposed hydrodynamic correlations
by Lucas et al. Kunii and Leven spiel, Mostoufi et al. Hilligardt and Werther, and Cui et al, have been used
in solving the model equations for materialandenergy balance forallofthe compositionsin the bed.

III. Material and methodology
Simulations were carried out at the operating conditions given in Table1 where the fluidized bed reactor of
poly propylene production was divided into a CSTR for the emulsion phase and a PFR for the bubble phase with
heat and mass being exchanged between the two phases. A set of kinetic parameters as shown in the Table have
been selected for the propylene polymerization reactions propagation and chain transfer reactions determine the
polymer properties and the other reactions are less important In this work the effects of temperature and
therefore activation energies on the polymerization kinetics have not been considered Fig.2 shows the evolution
of the emulsion phase temperature with time where it can be noticed from this figure that the predicted
polymerization temperature obtained by the new model is lower than the well mixed model results, due to the
assumption of reaction occurring in the emulsion and the bubble phases and hence in the emulsion phase of
present model is lower than the well mixed model (one phase model).Fig.3 shows the molecular weight
distribution of the final product. This figure illustrates that the number and weight average molecular weight of
the polymer increase rapidly at the beginning of the polymerization period and reach a constant value within less
than three hours of production.

Fig.2 shows the evolution of the emulsion phase temperature with time where it can be noticed from this
figure that the predicted polymerization temperature obtained by the new model is lower than the well mixed
model results. Fig.3 shows the molecular weight distribution of the final product. Profiles of the concentration of
propylene and ethylene in the emulsion and bubble phases are shown in Figs.4and5 where the concentrations of
propylene and ethylene in the bubble phase are higher and their rate of change which is proportion al to the rate
of consumption of ethylene are lower those in the emulsion phase. This indicate that the emulsion contains about
88% of the catalyst while the bubbles carry about 12% of the catalyst and hence the apparent reaction rate is
higher in the emulsion than that in the bubble phase.

V. Conclusion
A fluidized bed reactor model for polypropylene production using the dynamic two-phase concept of
fluidization combined with proper kinetic model is presented in this study to provide a better understanding of
the reactor performance and shown that about 13% of the polymer is produced in the bubble phase which is an
appreciable amount that needs to be considered in all future models of the system.
