https://materials.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=JPMSE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=992
Gamma radiation was used to create a number of PVP/Starch/Dimethylacrylamide (PSD) based hydrogels. Investigated were the effects of several parameters, such as radiation dose, material composition, and pH, on the characteristics of hydrogels, such as gel content and swelling behavior. Radiation doses ranged from 10 to 25 kGy, and 10 kGy was determined to be the ideal dose. Investigations on the impact of dimethylacrylamide (DMA) composition on swelling were investigated. The maximal swelling ratio at 10 kGy for the ideal PVP/starch/DMA composition was 3525%. The ideal composition for hydrogel synthesis consisted of 5% PVP, 0.5% starch, and 5% Dimethylacrylamide, taking into account the gel fraction and swelling ratio. Fourier Transform Infrared-Attenuated Total Reflection (FTIR-ATR) spectroscopy was used to characterize the produced hydrogel. Using basic fuchsin and methyl orange as model dyes, the hydrogel's dye adsorption capability was evaluated using several kinetics and isotherm models. Maximum dye adsorption was 210 mg/g for basic fuchsin (BF) and 473 mg/g for methyl orange (MO), respectively. The Freundlich isotherm model represented the adsorption process better than the Langmuir isotherm model. The adsorption behavior of the PVP/ Starch/ Dimethylacrylamide hydrogel followed pseudo-second order for basic fuchsin (BF) and pseudo-first order for methyl orange (MO). The adsorption process was discovered to be endothermic in nature, spontaneous, and advantageous at high temperature after the thermodynamic parameters were evaluated. Based on the findings, it is expected that PVP/Starch/DMA hydrogel can act as a potential adsorbent to remove cationic and anionic dyes from wastewater.Nazia RahmanPuja MajumderShahnaz SultanaMd.

https://materials.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=JPMSE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1009
<p>The aim of this study was to invesigate the potential of sugarcane bagasse for 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF). Nowadays, food crops such as glucose and fructose were the main derived for the production of 5-HMF. The potential of sugarcane bagasse to replace the consumption of glucose and fructose was investigated through studies. Consequently, the primary aim of this research was to explore the feasibility of utilizing bagasse as a source for generating 5-HMF.Three experimental parameters were investigated during the hydrolysis and 5-HMF production. These are temperature (108–192)oC, reaction time (1-3)hr and concentration of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) as catalyst (0.5-1.5)M. The conversion of bagasse to 5-HMF can be achieved using the following processes; firstly pretreatment of bagasse was removed different contaminates, dried (12°C for 24hr) and ground to the uniform particle size (2 mm). The final result of 5-HMF was studied using a sulfuric acid in water: toluene system with ratio of (60:60 V/V) and Sodium Chloride (NaCl). Response Surface Methodology (RSM) employed the Central Composit Design (CCD) was used to optimize the yield. The optimum result was obtained at 181.32oC temperature, 2.62hr reaction time and 1.50M sulfuric acid concentration. The optimum result of 5- HMF is 32.6337% w/w was achieved under these conditions. Generally, the potential of sugarcane bagasse for the production of 5-HMF could be an option as energy source and other uses.</p>Gebreyohannes GebrehiwotTsgehiwet GebremichalYemane Gebremedihn

https://materials.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=JPMSE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1023
<p>Global challenges of today center on ways to combat global warming while reducing the rate at which fossil fuels are depleted through the use of environmentally friendly, biodegradable products. This work envisions the use of vetiver fiber (VF) as a reinforcement material in composite material construction, since the scientific literature advocates alternative materials for plastics. Based on the fiber composition of the fibers, the effects of various chemical treatments on the physico-mechanical, morphological, and weather tests of polypropylene (PP) composites reinforced with vetiver Fibers (VFs) were examined in this work. The findings show that vetiver fibers serve as reinforcing fillers in composite materials, enhancing their physicomechanical characteristics such as tensile strength, tensile modulus, impact strength, hardness, and water absorption. The mechanical characteristics of PP/VF composites containing benzoyl chloride after sodium dodecyl sulfate preparation are superior to those of sodium dodecyl sulfate-treated and untreated fiber composites. The interfacial properties were assessed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and it was discovered that the treatment of the fibers increased the interfacial interaction between PP and VF, hence validating the acquired mechanical qualities of the composites. The sodium dodecyl sulfate-prepared VF composites that had been treated with benzoyl chloride absorbed less water than composites that had not been treated with sodium dodecyl sulfate or had not been treated at all, according to the results of the water absorption test. Weather testing revealed that benzoyl chloride-treated composites with sodium dodecyl sulfate pretreatment exhibited less deterioration in their tensile strength and tensile modulus than both sodium dodecyl sulfate-treated and untreated composites.</p>Ruhul Amin KhanHaydar U Zaman

https://materials.journalspub.info/index.php?journal=JPMSE&page=article&op=view&path%5B%5D=1030
Nanotechnology is advancing notably in the oil and gas sector, with its applications demonstrating substantial progress. The use of nanoparticles in various aspects of the industry has shown promise in addressing challenges and improving efficiency. Nanotechnology is finding applications across multiple facets of the oil and gas industry, encompassing areas such as the development of drilling and hydraulic fracturing fluids, cementing for oil wells, improved oil recovery techniques, corrosion prevention, logging operations, and the reduction of viscosity in heavy oil, formation fines control, methane release from gas hydrates, and drag reduction in porous media. However, challenges associated with using nanoparticles in the industry are ensuring their stability in liquid mediums and their transportability within reservoir rocks. Researchers are addressing challenges by experimenting with different nanoparticle sizes, concentrations, and surface treatments to enhance stability and transportability. Exploring synergistic effects in nanotechnology for the oil and gas industry involves investigating the collaborative potential of various nanoparticles and technologies to address current challenges. It is essential to assess both the technical and economic prospects of nanotechnology within the oil and gas sector. Nanoparticles can be expensive, so optimizing and achieving the desired performance at a cost-beneficial level is essential. This involves finding the right balance between nanoparticle concentration and performance outcomes. Assessing these applications' technical feasibility and economic viability is essential for their widespread adoption. Optimization is required in future nanotechnology research efforts. Identifying the most efficient and cost-effective approaches to using nanoparticles can lead to more successful applications in the industry. Our review paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the scientific progress in nanotechnology within the oil and gas sector. Such overviews are valuable for all the industry to stay informed about the latest advancements.Rabindranath JanaSankalan DasSayan Ghosh
