TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of pH and three inorganic salts (KCl, KI, and NaCl) on the adsorption isotherms of phenol (from a dilute aqueous solution) on activated charcoal was conducted.
Abstract: An experimental investigation of the effects of pH and three inorganic salts (KCl, KI, and NaCl) on the adsorption isotherms of phenol (from a dilute aqueous solution) on activated charcoal was conducted. Each salt was studied at three different concentrations, i.e., 0.1, 0.001, and 0.005 M. The effect of pH (in the pH range 3 to 11) in the presence of KI, KCl, and NaCl was also investigated. The concentration of phenol in the aqueous systems studied ranged from 10 to 200 ppm. The temperature effect was also studied, and the resulting experimental equilibrium isotherms at 30, 40, and 55°C are well represented by Freundlich, Langmuir, and Redlich—Paterson isotherms. The relevant parameters for these isotherms are presented.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of magnetic field strength on the local Nusselt number and local wall shear stress in the mixed convection regime was investigated. But the authors focused on the non-Darcian model including both the inertial and boundary effects.
Abstract: Magnetohydrodynamic mixed convection flow about a vertical flat plate embedded in a porous medium is considered. The effect of the magnetic field strength on the local Nusselt number and local wall shear stress is presented. The non-Darcian model including both the inertial and boundary effects is used. A particular transformation for the governing equations is adopted to cover the whole mixed convection regime within two finite limits. Appreciable effects of the magnetic field strength on the local Nusselt number as well as on the local wall shear stress in the mixed convection regime are found.

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed overview of the potential types of centrifugation that can be used to harvest microalgae with their pros and cons is provided, and the most prevalent centrifugal devices that have been identified to be effectively useful to harvest algal biomass include disc-stack centrifuge, solid-bowl centrifuge and multi-chamber centrifuge.
Abstract: Biodiesel production from algal biomass is widely considered a sustainable alternative to petroleum fuels, especially in the transportation sector. However, the high energy consumption associated with the harvesting phase poses a significant impediment to the substantial commercialization of algal biodiesel. Centrifugation is among those harvesting methods that have a high efficiency close to 100% but can consume more energy than it produces. This review aims to address possible solutions for the issue of the high energy cost of centrifugation as an efficient harvesting technique. In addition, a detailed overview of the potential types of centrifugation that can be used to harvest microalgae with their pros and cons is provided. The most prevalent centrifugal devices that have been identified to be effectively useful to harvest algal biomass include disc-stack centrifuge, solid-bowl centrifuge, hydrocyclone, tubular centrifuge, and multi-chamber centrifuge. Overall, the analysis showed that centrifugation alone is not suitable for the harvesting of microalgae for biodiesel production. Nevertheless, coupling centrifugation with other harvesting technologies, e.g. with flocculation, as a primary pre-concentration step, can increase the energy output significantly thus, reducing the production cost.

TL;DR: Takinib is a potent and selective TAK1 inhibitor that induces apoptosis following TNF-α stimulation in cell models of rheumatoid arthritis and metastatic breast cancer and is an attractive starting point for the development of inhibitors that sensitize cells to T NF-α-induced cell death, with general implications for cancer and autoimmune disease treatment.
