Role of Reactive Extraction in Removal of Phenol from Wastewater
Abstract: Phenol is one of the most common organic water pollutants as it is highly toxic even at low concentration. Also, its presence in natural water can lead to the formation of substituted compounds during disinfection and oxidation processes. Reactive extraction method is found to be a capable alternate for separation of medium (300–3000 mg/l) to high (3000–6000 mg/l) concentration of phenol. The degree of extraction depends on nature of extractant, …

Experimental Techniques for Fatigue Analysis of a Small Wind Turbine Blade
Abstract: During the life span, a wind turbine blade experiences variety of the forces. These forces include gravitational force, centrifugal force, tangential force, thrust force, etc. Thrust force and gravitational forces create edgewise bending stress while the tangential forces (wind pressure) create flapwise bending stress. Centrifugal forces generate direct stress in the wind turbine blade. Most of the wind turbine blades fail due to bending in the flapwise direction. These induced …

Damping Techniques for Controlling Edgewise Vibration of Wind Turbine Blades
Abstract: AbstractEdgewise vibrations with low aerodynamic damping are of particular concern in modern multi-megawatt wind turbines, as large amplitude cyclic oscillations may significantly shorten the life-time of wind turbine components, and even lead to structural damages or failures. In this paper, five types of damping methods are studied. The tuned liquid dampers utilize the sloshing motion of the fluid to suppress structural vibrations and become a natural candidate for damping vibrations …
