A Novel Approach for Extraction of Polyphenols
Abstract: Polyphenols are class of compounds which are found in fruits, vegetables, walnuts, olives, tea leaves and many more. Polyphenols are antioxidant phyto-chemicals that prevent or neutralize the damaging effects of free radicals. They are secondary metabolites of plants and are generally involved in defence against ultra-violet radiation or aggression against pathogens. Polyphenols are various alcoholic compounds containing two or more benzene rings that each has at least one hydroxyl group …

Flow Reversal and Pressure pulsation: Innovative technique to enhance flux in Nanofiltration
Abstract: Reduction in Permeate flux with the period of time is the major drawback for the Pressure-driven membrane processes. Concentration polarization and membrane fouling are the two major limitations for the Pressure-driven membrane filtration processes. They lead to the severe flux decline and that need to be controlled for the better process efficiency. The resistance determination provides basis for selection of membrane and appropriate pressure –driven separation process. This paper outlines …

Centralized Controller Design Of Two-Input Two-Output Process Using SISO Design Techniques
Abstract: In two-input two-output (TITO) systems, interactions should be appropriately accounted for proper input-output pairing. Pairing plays an important role, where the wrong pairing can lead to unstable systems, even each one of the loop is stable individually. In this paper interactions of TITO time-delay systems are quantified using the gramian based interaction measures. Using this pairing problem is addressed for TITO systems and a multivariable controller is designed using siso …

Dynamic Behavior of Coal Ash
Abstract: Coal ash is deposited in large quantities in the ash pond. It is used as structural fill and for dyke construction. The behavior of ash under dynamic conditions is not well investigated. The present work attempts to quantify some of the parameters, which influences the dynamic stability especially liquefaction potential of coal ash. Several investigations conducted on coal ash suggest that ash fills have low SPT value. This supports the …
