In order to simplify the pretreatment process in detection of pesticide residues in vegetables and improve the extraction recovery, an ultrahigh pressure technique was adopted in pretreatment experiments on organophosphorus pesticide residues in cabbage, and on the basis of single-factor test, orthogonal pre-conditions were optimized. The results showed that: The optimum process conditions for ultrahigh pressure extraction of dimethoate in cabbage at room temperature are: pressure of 400MPa, extraction solvent volume of 60ml, the holding time of 4min, recovery rate up to 91.3%, compared with the conventional homogenization method, extraction efficiency improved significantly.

Abstract Nowadays, combustion technologies decarbonization, reduction of harmful emission, and improving thermal efficiency have gained more attention by using clean, sustainable, alternative, and reliable biofuels coupled with using nano particles technologies. Nano heterogeneous catalysts are new promising technologies for converting triglycerides (oil, fats,..etc) into biodiesel, which characterized with saving in the total cost of production. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nano heterogeneous catalyst used to convert triglyceride represented in waste cooking oil (WCO) into FAME as bio-diesel, where bio-diesel yield fitted the ASTM. In the present research, the results show 95% as a maximum yield at optimum process conditions of 0.01 Wt.% TiO2 loading, 0.3 Wt.% NaoH, reaction temperature (60 ºC), reaction time (60 min), 10:1 methanol to oil volumetric percentage. Effect of mixing different percentage (35, and 70 ppm) of {[Cd (EIN)2(SCN)2]}, SCP 1, Cadmium (II coordination polymer as nanoparticle enhancer, with diesel fuel/biodiesel (60:40 v/v%) (D60B40) on the behavior of one-cylinder direct-injection diesel (DI) engine parameters were examined experimentally and analytically through RSM methodologies. The engine operating variables have been optimized by using CCD method to achieve an optimal BTE. Engine load and nano particles quantity were considered as process input variables to optimize BTE, UHC, and NOx emissions as engine responses. The quadratic regression models were significant and adequate statistically as indicated by the Analysis of variance (ANOVA). The obtained results from (RSM) optimizer indicated that BTE, NOx, and UHC have optimum values of 16.2605%, 544.9157 ppm, and 117.6023 ppm respectively, at 70 ppm of SCP 1 nanoparticles and 2.1919 Kw of break power as optimal predicted values. A validation examination was carried out and the percent of error was within the limit of 5%. BTE, UHC, and NOx have an error percentage of 2.05%, 1.03%, and 1.63%, respectively.

Abstract Polyphenols, the most abundant and naturally occurring antioxidants, was found to be the highest in Dacryodes rostrata seed as compared to the peel and pulp of the fruit. Growing technologies in the past decades have led to the interest of reviewing and developing environmental-friendly green extraction solvent, as the commonly used conventional solvent imposing various risks to human health and environment. An environmental-friendly extraction technique was established using deep eutectic solvent (DES) as the alternative extraction solvent has been considered. The main objective of this study was to analyse the environmental impact and performance of laboratory processes for phenolic compounds extraction from D. rostrata peel using different solvent, by means of life cycle assessment (LCA). A comparative analysis was carried out to evaluate the environmental impacts caused by both solvents, DES and conventional organic solvent, ethanol. The functional unit (FU) was defined as 104.6 mg of extracted polyphenols, measured as gallic acid equivalents (mg GAE)/g dw of D. rostrata seed used. The variation of environmental impacts between DES and ethanol as a function of optimum process conditions (temperature, time, solid/liquid ratio, and water addition) was evaluated. According to the environmental profile analyzed, the well-developed ethanol exerted lower impact and energy consumptions as compared to the environmental-friendly green solvent, DES. Besides, transport activities and electricity consumptions from the extraction process was identified contributing highest environment impact.

This research investigates the effect of fiber, yarn and fabric variables on the bagging behavior of single jersey weft knitted fabrics interpreted in terms of bagging fatigue percentage. In order to estimate the optimum process conditions and to examine the individual effects of each controllable factor on a particular response, Taguchi's experimental design was used. The controllable factors considered in this research are blending ratio, yarn twist and count, fabric structure and fabric density. The findings show that fabric structure has the largest effect on the fabric bagging. Factor yarn twist is second and is followed by fabric density, blend ratio and yarn count. The optimum conditions to achieve the least bagging fatigue ratio were determined.

The auxiliary devices of ultrasonic treatment was designed and manufactured. The cotton fabric was desized using 2000L desizing enzyme with the conventional enzyme desizing process and ultrasonic enzyme desizing process respectively. Through the orthogonal experiment, the optimum process conditions of conventional enzyme desizing process and ultrasonic enzyme desizing process were determined. For the conventional enzyme desizing process, the optimized desizing conditions of cotton fabrics were: desizing enzyme dosage was 1.5g/l, temperature was 80°C, PH value was 6, and time was 60mins. The optimum process conditions of ultrasonic enzyme desizing process were: desizing enzyme dosage was 1.5g/l, temperature was 50°C, PH value was 6 and time was 45minutes. The research result indicates that, under the same desizing condition, ultrasonication can improve the desizing percentage and whiteness of cotton fabric, but the fabric strength loss increases slightly. And for the same required desizing percentage, the ultrasonic enzyme desizing process saved time and reduced the temperature of experiments compared with traditional enzyme desizing process
