Oily water can be the side product of many processes, like crude oil processing and transportation leakages, industries such as steel industry, machine industry, petroleum refinery, petrochemical industry, textile industry, metal industry, pyrolysis etc. It seems to be the difficult to dispose waste. Although several treatment methods have been developed, many times additional water disposal installation is required. When the main process consumes natural gas, to simplify oily water utilization, the method of its direct injection to the natural gas burner is suggested by the paper authors. To provide the proper combustion and the mixture homogenization, emulsification was proposed. The aim of the research was to find the optimal recipe from the stability point of view, taking into account technical and economic conditions. The article covers the variety of surfactants examination for the water-hydrocarbons mixture emulsification, including the surfactants concentration optimization.

AbstractThe symmetric group 𝓢n acts on the power set 𝓟(n) and also on the set of square free polynomials in n variables. These two related representations are analyzed from the stability point of view. An application is given for the action of the symmetric group on the cohomology of the pure braid group.

Abstract International stability norms included in the Code of Intact Stability 2008 adopted by IMO on 4 December 2008 constitutes the latest set of international requirements on intact stability of ships. However the requirements included in the Code, part of them compulsory (Included in the Part A of the Code), other only recommended (included in the Part B of the Code) are considered as not totally sufficient to assure safety of ships. Because of that, IMO decided that there would be the necessity to develop so called new generation stability criteria covering certain identified hazards, such as parametric resonance, loss of stability in the wave crest broaching, dead ship condition and excessive accelerations when rolling. Those criteria, or rather stability norms, are under development since 2008. The present approach, the work on which is well advanced, is however, not fully satisfactory and several important problems were discovered. This approach may need to be reconsidered or supplemented. The author in the paper presented discusses the weak points of the current approach and proposes possible different approach in order to make future ships safer from the stability point of view.

The present paper describes the effect of surface roughness orientation pattern on the nonlinear transient response of symmetric two lobe capillary compensated hole entry hybrid journal bearing. Nonlinear equations of motion have been solved with the Runge-Kutta method. The stability of the journal bearing system has been studied by obtaining the journal center motion trajectories. The results of the study reveal that the surface roughness pattern significantly changes the stability of capillary compensated two lobe hole entry hybrid journal bearing. Hence, from the bearing stability point of view, a proper selection of the surface roughness pattern and bearing geometry is essential.

In order to obtain biomaterials with potential use in the treatment of inflammatory skin conditions, this experimental study approached the immobilization on knitted fabric, made of 100% organic cotton, of oil-in-water emulsions type, based on xanthan-propolis-cinnamon essential oil, in certain formulations. For this purpose, seven experimental variants of emulsions were prepared and characterized, by specific methods, from physical-chemical and stability point of view. The functionalized textile materials were also characterized from morphological and antibacterial activity view point. The stability index, determined after 10 days, indicated that the emulsions are stable, without showing the presence of one of the flocculation, creaming / sedimentation, coalescence or Ostwald ripening phenomena. The lowest value of the turbidity was obtained for the experimental variant containing the lowest amount of essential oil and propolis. For the same variant, the highest value of viscosity was obtained, in which 0,363 mL water /mL emulsion and 0,5 mL xanthan/mL emulsion volume fraction was used. The textile materials treated with the synthesized emulsions based on xanthan-propolis-cinnamon essential oil shows antibacterial effect against S. aureus and E. coli test strains

Due to the deficiency of areas for dump facilities, mining enterprises form dumps of a large height, or locate them in places unfavorable from the stability point of view. In this regard, cases of the dump areas landslides have become more frequent. Herein there are examples of the actual deformations, causes of their occurrence, as well as preventive measures. Experience of the field surveying observations and analysis of the dump landslide causes confirm that accidents could be prevented by timely substantiating of safety criteria for the stress strain status of the dumps and creating methodology for surveying monitoring, depending on a type of the overburden rock.

In this paper, we establish some results for a Volterra–Hammerstein integral equation with modified arguments: existence and uniqueness, integral inequalities, monotony and Ulam-Hyers-Rassias stability. We emphasize that many problems from the domain of symmetry are modeled by differential and integral equations and those are approached in the stability point of view. In the literature, Fredholm, Volterra and Hammerstein integrals equations with symmetric kernels are studied. Our results can be applied as particular cases to these equations.

At the beginning of my paper I will explain the concept of "Geopolitics of Energy", this will be done for a quite simple reason, because I want everyone who can sit to read this article to understand more clearly what is at stake, therefore allow them the comprehension of what is being elaborated bellow at first sight. Geopolitics of energy is a concept that relates to policies choosing exporters to implement on importers, is the policy that has an impact on energy consumption, which includes consumer’s choice in the geopolitical context, taking into account the economy, foreign policy, the safety of energy, environmental consequences and priorities that carries the energy exporter. This concept permits the understanding of how works the politics that undertakes this initiative taking into account natural resources such as: natural gas and oil. Natural gas and oil are two main resources that produce energy but also two main elements on which arises all the topic in the energetics game. For this paper is used qualitative methodology, through which we were able to accomplish this work. I focused on scientific literature, official publications and reports on energy geopolitics. The main aim has been to show how in this decade, energy security is at the center of geopolitical agenda and has become the focus of numerous political debates. Regarding this point of view, Europe is taking the initiative to create a common energy market within the continent by creating projects, in which Albania appears as a new regional energy potential. Russia, which is aiming to play a role in the international arena, is seeking to position itself geopolitically in "its political weapon", hydrocarbon resources, in particular natural gas resources.

The main objective of this study was assessment of the performance, emissions and combustion characteristics of a diesel engine using RME–1-butanol blends. In assessing the combustion process, great importance was placed on evaluating the stability of this process. Not only were the typical COVIMEP indicators assessed, but also the non-burnability of the characteristic combustion stages: ignition delay, time of 50% heat release and the end of combustion. The evaluation of the combustion process based on the analysis of heat release. The tests carried out on a 1-cylinder diesel engine operating at a constant load. Research and evaluation of the combustion process of a mixture of RME and 1-butanol carried out for the entire range of shares of both fuels up to 90% of 1-butanol energetic fraction. The participation of butanol in combustion process with RME increased the in-cylinder peak pressure and the heat release rate. With the increase in the share of butanol there was noted a decrease in specific energy consumption and an increase in engine efficiency. The share of butanol improved the combustion stability. There was also an increase in NOx emissions and decrease in CO and soot emissions. The engine can be power by blend up to 80% energy share of butanol.
