T is the adiabatic reaction temperature of the pyro-oxidation zone. (Barman, Ghosh, and De) also considered the formation of tar and methane reforming reaction in the pyro-Oxidation zone. The adiabatic reaction temperature is found out by considering heat balance in the zone. Enthalpy of reactants + Heat loss=Enthalpy of products = The heat loss from the oxidation zone was found to be around 10% by Chern(cite). TO is the temperature of biomass fed to the gasifier and Ta is the…

Orwell challenges the way in which the British use their technological advances. Instead of just using these new advancements to expand their territory, the British use…

This book not only advocated for gorillas to have rights, but it also promoted that chimpanzees, bamboos, and orangutans should have the same rights as us. Since Jane Goodall, people have come to the realization that we share 98.7 percent of our DNA with apes. This realization has led to animal rights activists to fight for apes to have human…

As mentioned before, there were two types of inscriptions on the Yixing stoneware teapot. One type was the individual seals placed on the base of the teapots, and the other one was the customized inscriptions on the bodies of the teapots. This new practice of inscribing, on one hand, was significantly influenced by the imperial reign marking tradition; on the other hand, it was the consequence of the mutual respect between skillful and creative Yixing artisans and their patrons, the…
