Natural dyes from mahogany are usually obtained by conventional extraction. This extraction process requires a large solvent, a long duration of the process so that the energy requirements are also higher. Therefore, the use of "green techniques" to extract natural dyes with a minimum of energy and solvent should be considered. One extraction method that has been developed is the microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) method. In this work, the effects of microwave power, material to solvent ratio, and the heating time on the extraction results and the pigment components of the extract were examined. A comparison of the time required for reflux extraction and Soxhlet was also made. In microwave extraction, the highest yield was obtained at optimum extraction conditions such as microwave power of 600 W, the ratio of material to solvent of 0.02 g/mL, extraction time of 30 min. While for reflux and Soxhlet extraction, the extraction time needed to obtain optimum yield was 120 min and 720 min, respectively. Identification of compound components by the phytochemical test. Descriptions of the effects of microwave and conventional extraction are shown by damage to the surface structure of solid materials using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM).

Tropane alkaloids are characteristic secondary metabolites which occurred mainly in Solanaceae plant family. Among them, hyoscine or scopolamine is one of the predominant in the Datura species, occurring in all plant organs (vegetative and reproductive). Because of its medical use and toxic properties, a rapid, convenient and reliable method is essential for the quantification of scopolamine content of plant biomass. The aim of this study was to elaborate a rapid method for determination of scopolamine from Datura innoxia, using Soxhlet extraction and quantification by gas-cromatography with flame ionization detection. Scopolamine content was investigated in plant organs (leaves, flowers, fruits, stem end root) of Datura innoxia collected in the maturity period from a country side region from Romania. Scopolamine was found in all organs examined. The results revealed that, concentration of scopolamine extracted in ethanol followed the order: root ] seeds ] flowers ] stem ] leaves. Higher extraction efficiency of scopolamine was found for 1-butanol compared to ethanol, and the order of concentration was: flowers ] seeds ] leaves ] stem ] root. Scopolamine content showed differences indicating that it is influenced by: 1) plant biomass as place of growing, plant species, plant organ and 2) extraction process efficiency based on polarity of the solvent, extraction time and sample - solvent ratio. The results show clear evidence that, the highest scopolamine content was found in 1-butanolic extracts and lowest in ethanolic extracts.

Mixtures of solid adsorbents often occur in the process industries through either accident or design. To model such systems, a common approach is to define a pseudo-adsorbent with equilibrium properties equal to the mass fraction weighted average of the components in the mixture. The selection of an appropriate mass-transfer rate constant for the mixture is, however, more complicated. In this study, we have derived simple relationships between the linear driving force rate constants for a pseudo-mixture in terms of the rate constants, equilibrium parameters and mass fractions of the components of the mixture. The reciprocal rate constant for a mixture of adsorbents was shown to be related to the mass fraction weighted average reciprocal rates of the components of the mixture for the case of equal equilibrium isotherms. Expressions of greater complexity resulted for non-linear and non-equal isotherms. Experimental testing was undertaken of the breakthrough behaviour in adsorbent mixtures using the air system with mixtures of CaX and NaX in an adiabatic packed column. The mass-transfer behaviour of the solid mixtures was in good agreement with that predicted by the simple models.

Background: Eugenol is the main constituent of clove essential oil. Past studies have found that clove oil has diverse uses in the pharmaceutical field due to its antioxidant, antibacterial and anesthetic properties. Objective: This work compares the performance of different extraction methods and factors and identifies the effect of the treatments on oil yields and eugenol content. Materials and Methods: Maceration, Hydro distillation, microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), and Soxhlet were performed. The best technique was identified according to yield and content. Further studies were conducted to examine the effects of different factors, such as solvent types (ethanol and methanol) and sample-to-solvent ratio (1:10 and 1:15). HPLC UV-Vis was utilized in the analysis of eugenol concentration. Results and Discussion: Soxhlet extraction provided the highest yield (39.98%) and eugenol content (15.83%), compared to other methods. The results observed from several Soxhlet extraction factors showed that there is no significant difference between the different factors. In the meantime, methanol 1:15 provided the greatest amount of yields (57.83%) and eugenol content (22.21%). In this regard, the higher ratio resulted in higher eugenol content. Conclusion: The results obtained are less comparable because the processing time, the working solvent, and the separation technique were carried out differently for each method. In the meantime, as there is no past study that compared the selected methods and factors, this study’s findings will contribute substantially to fill the gap in this field.

The limiting diffusion current technique was used for investigation of free convective mass transfer at down-pointing up-facing isosceles triangular surfaces of varying length and inclination. As the mass transfer process, copper deposition from acidified copper(II) sulfate solution was used. It was found that the mass transfer rate increases with inclination from the vertical to the horizontal position and decreases with length of inclined surface. Correlation equations for 7 angles from 0 to 90° were found. The exponent in the ShL-RaL correlation ranged from 0.247 for the vertical case, indicating laminar flow, to 0.32 for inclinations of 60 to 90°, indicating mixed or turbulent flow. The general correlation ShL = 0.358(RaL sin θ)0.30 for the RaL sin θ range from 7 × 106 to 2 × 1011 and inclination range from 15 to 90° was obtained.
