CREG organized a Reactive Distillation class for its members on 17 August 2009. Prof. Dr. Jahanmiri, a visiting professor from University of Shiraz,  Iran gave an interesting presentation about reactive distillation and application of an Adaptive Network based Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) to optimize the esterification of oleic acid. From the class, we are more [...]

This is interesting. Look at the slow motion video when a drop of glycerol drops on the water surface. What can you deduced from this observation?

An average person can lose about 3 liters of water from a strenuous exercise especially when it is hot and muggy. This loss may occur via respiration and perspiration. Experts say that when the body loses one and a half liters of water, endurance and performance is reduced due to decreased amount of blood that [...]

Automotive shredder residue (ASR) is a problematic mixture of materials that in an ideal world would be recycled. This has not been possible due to the difficulty of finding suitable uses for a variable material which may contain some toxic contaminants. Clearly, ASR needs a new processing solution.
Pyrolysis has been identified by the waste management [...]
