Regeneration of used lubricating oil as a source of energy

open access: yesArid Zone Journal of Engineering, Technology and Environment, 2001
Conservation of natural resources by refining used lubricating oil was attempted in this work. Used lubricating oil was purified and distilled. The distillates obtained were divided into two temperature ranges of 60 - 210°C and 210 - 310°C.

Assessment of the effects of microwave‐produced biodiesel blends on electric generator performance and emissions

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiesels are emerging as alternatives to diesel fuel. However, to be a feasible solution, biodiesels must meet strict criteria including high efficiency and minimal environmental impact. The current study focuses on evaluating ethyl ester biodiesel and its blends with diesel fuel to assess their potential.

Unique deficits in place coding across subfields of the hippocampus in a mouse model of temporal lobe epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Memory problems are comorbid with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Animal models of TLE reveal impairments in spatial firing fields of hippocampal place cells, providing a potential neural substrate for memory problems. Each subfield of the hippocampus carries out unique aspects of spatial memory, yet little is known about how ...

Architecting nano‐Al/HMX/CuO energetic micro‐units unlocks superior interface and highly efficient combustion

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
Improving the dispersion of nano‐aluminum is of great importance in explosives and propellants. The spherical Al/HMX/CuO energetic micro‐units were prepared using microchannel technology, which significantly improved the uniformity and dispersion of nano‐Al. It also enhanced the mass and heat transfer efficiency between the fuel and oxidizer components,
