wheat kernels in 150 μm sieve; Wwheat in 75μm sieve = weight of wheat kernels in 75 189 μm sieve; Wpan = 190 weight of empty pan; and Wmaize meal = weight of maize flour. 191 Determination of Crude Protein 192 The crude protein content of the roasted maize was determined in duplicate by Dumas combustion 193 method as described in AACCI Approved Method 46–30.01 (AACC, 1999) using a Leco, model 194 FP-528 (Leco Africa, Kempton Park, South Africa). Calibration of the instrument was done using 195…

Sugarcane Press mud Sugarcane Press mud - Sugarcane press mud is the residue of the filtration of sugarcane juice. The clarification process separates the juice into a clear juice that rises to the top and goes to manufacture, and a mud that collects at the bottom. The mud is then filtered to separate the suspended matter, which includes insoluble salts and fine bagasse. This industrial waste is mostly used as soil conditioner, soil fertilizer and for wax production. Income…

Analytical Method Validation of Sylimarin The λmax of Sylimarin in ethyl alcohol and PBS was found to be 286 nm and 322nm, respectively. The drug follows linearity in the concentration range 2–20 μg/ml with a correlation coefficient value of 0.998 and 0.999 for in ethyl alcohol and PBS, respectively. The accuracy of the method was checked by recovery. The % recovery was found to be in the range of 99.54– 100.98% in ethyl alcohol and 98.94– 101.4% in PBS, respectively. The precision of the…

The MTBE operation consists of various units; the focal units are De Iso Butanizer (DIB), Butamer, Oleflex and Ethermax. Methanol produced from QAFAC, mixed butane from QP NGL facilities and water with power from KAHRAMAA and small amounts of chemicals to be used such as: 10% Caustic, DMDS, PERC and Chlorine are the required raw materials needed to generate MTBE. Producing MTBE starts with passing the Butane mixture that is in the storage sphere at QAFAC through the DIB unit where the…

Purpose The purpose of the experiment was to see the effects of combining certain solutes and solvents. By conducting this experiment it is seen how solutions and mixtures relate to the six postulates of particle theory. When conducting this experiment, the particle theory was thought of, such as when you mechanically agitate a solution, particles move around and bump into each other, breaking up. The specific substances will be stated in the hypotheses. There were many things looked for when…

Introduction: A chemical reaction occurs when you mix baking soda and vinegar. The type of reaction that occurs when you mix the two is called a chemical reaction, the chemical property that is used is called reactivity. Some of the evidence that proves that a chemical change is occurring is when you start to hear a sizzle sound and gas starts to be produced. When the gas starts to produce you will see the bubbles start to rise. The two types of matter that are creating this reaction are called…

Ferhan Abdullah Thursday, 09 November 2016 Experiment 7 The Separation of Three Organic Compounds by Acid-Base Reactions and Liquid-Liquid Extractions Abstract: The purpose of the experiment was to isolate the three mixtures 9-fluorenone , benzoic acid and benzocaine by the liquid-liquid extraction method and the acid-base reaction technique. Using the acid-base reaction technique, the acid and base are neutralized, producing salt and water. By using the liquid-liquid extraction method, two…

5.3 Optimum parameters obtained by Desirability analysis Figure 5.17, shows the optimality graph obtained by MINITAB 17 software for Brake specific fuel consumption, Brake thermal efficiency and Unburnt hydrocarbons of COME blends. The most favoured optimal condition obtained for Brake specific fuel consumption, Brake thermal efficiency and Unburnt hydrocarbons are shown. Optimization is carried out by using Derringer’s Desirability approach of RSM. Equations to calculate desirability are shown…

The concentration of CDCL and CSER is obtained by solving equation (1) and (2) CX = A1 / ax1 ………………..... (1) CY = [A2 – (ax2 × CX)] / ay2…...(2) Where,  A1 and A2are absorbance of mixture at λ1 and λ2respectively.  ax1 and ax2 are absorptivities of DCL at λ1 and λ2, respectively,  ay1 and ay2 are absorptivities of SER at λ1 and λ2, respectively,  CXandCYare concentrations of DCL and SER, respectively. Concentration of DCL and SER in the powder mixture is found by using equation (3) and (4)…
