An architectural tour of our rural areas around the world showcases unique expressions of cultural identity through our buildings, spatial layouts, and decorations, often overshadowed in urban environments; Chad is no exception. Authors present their strategies for promoting local identities. In Chad, the architect-urban planner Senoussi Ahmat Senoussi oversees the women of Gaoui as they enhance their techniques in earthen decoration. Also, the architect ROGER Boriata studied the variation of tr...

Molecular salts, specifically 1-phenylethan-1-aminium 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoate (1), 1-phenylethan-1-aminium 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzoate (2), and 1-phenylethan-1-aminium 3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)prop-2-enoate (3), were successfully synthesized. The structures of [C 8NH 12] [C 8H 7O 4] ？(1), [C 8NH 12] [C 9H 9O 5] ？(2), and [C 8NH 12...

Atorvastatin calcium (ATC) is a widely prescribed synthetic cholesterol-lowering agent classified as BCS class II. This study aimed to investigate the solubility of ATC in a methanol-water mixture, which was illustrated through a ternary phase diagram. Additionally, the influence of varying concentrations of Tween 20 on the solubility of ATC in this aqueous methanol mixture was examined. ATC exhibits maximum solubility in pure methanol, and the incorporation of surf...

A realistic model of reservoir fluid samples is essential before conducting reservoir simulations, especially for gas condensate reservoirs. Errors in PVT modeling typically stem from three main sources: fluid sampling, fluid property measurement, and fluid model construction. This work presents a rapid method for constructing a more realistic PVT fluid model before tuning. Three fluid samples from different Iranian gas condensate reservoirs were selected to achieve this. A suitable equation of ...

The demand for wood products contributes greatly to deforestation, resulting in severe environmental effects. Each year, almost 18 million acres of forest are destroyed, which is equivalent to 27 soccer fields vanishing every minute. This rapid deforestation exacerbates climate change, habitat loss, and natural resource depletion. As a result, finding alternatives to traditional wood for building applications such as doors, windows, roofing, beams, furniture, and packaging is essential. This stu...

In this report, a simple method was employed to synthesize Fe/ZSM-5 for propane (C 3H 8) dehydrogenation. Fe of varying loading 1.5 - 3 wt% was with ZSM-5. Catalyst physicochemical properties were analyzed using XRD and FTIR. The XRD and FTIR characterization showed that the modified catalysts retained their crystallinity after metal impregnation. The performance tests for propane dehydrogenation to produce olefins over synthesized catalysts were carried out in a fixed-bed re...

This article reports the oxidation of acetone by H 2O 2 in the presence of CO 2. It describes the role played by carbon dioxide on the course of the reaction. The reaction was catalyzed by (MgO/γ-Al 2O 3). The prepared materials were characterized by XRD, FTIR, TGA, TEM, and SEM. Analysis of the reaction products by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry and gas chromatography showed that acetic acid was the main product of the reactio...

Although the literature mainly reports on the inactivation of bacteria by various electrochemical disinfectants, the impact of process variables and reactor design on bactericidal performance is not fully understood. This review concentrates on recent achievements of electrocoagulation (EC) and electrooxidation (EO) in killing pathogens such as Escherichia coli. Lynn et al. [1] [2] showed that in addition to EC alone, EC-EO enhanced E. coli reduction only after pH adju...

The use of food additives in industrial production has the advantage of improving sensory properties, technological quality and extending the shelf life of foods. Among the most widely used additives are preservatives, which were added to food products to inhibit, slow down or destroy various types of microorganisms. However, the strong presence of these additives on the market is not without risks for human health, and should be controlled to guarantee food safety. Analysis of the risks associa...

Enoxacin (EX), a third-generation fluoroquinolone, demonstrates broadspectrum antibacterial activities and is widely applied for the treatment of various bacterial infections. However, it is challenging to improve its antibacterial activity and drug resistance effects based on solubility changes owing to EX being categorized as a class II drug in the Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS). Based on improving the solubility of enoxacin (EX) to enhance the antibacterial activity in vitro, ph...
