PRODUCTION OF MICRO- AND NANOFIBRILLATED CELLULOSE THROUGH AN AQUEOUS COUNTER COLLISION SYSTEM FOLLOWED BY ULTRASOUND: EFFECT OF MECHANICAL PRETREATMENTS

The purpose of this work was the production of cellulose micro-nanofibrils from wood pulps through a combination of mechanical treatments, including a recently patented process, a so-called aqueous counter collision (ACC) method followed by ultrasound treatment.Previously to ACC process, the raw pulp materials had to be downscaled to micro-sized di

This article examines the possibility of DMSO+ALOE VERA improved social welfare as a result of the entry of a new private firm, domestic or foreign, into the upstream industry, in a situation where the upstream industry had a monopoly structure with the existence of a single government firm.A public firm can be privately or publicly managed, that i

Solar stills have been used for many years in areas with limited access to fresh water, such as desert regions or remote locations.They are simple to construct using readily available materials and require no energy input other than sunlight.Additionally, solar stills are low-maintenance and can produce a significant amount of pure water with relat

Solanum betacea is a sub-tropical tree, and the fruit has high nutritional value, unique flavor and color.It is used as a functional ingredient in health care, food, cosmetic and pharmaceutical applications.The complete chloroplast(Cp) genome of Photocell S.betacea has been assembled and annotated in this paper.Its length was 155,937 bp, containing
