Five frequently-used models were chosen and evaluated to calculate the viscosity of the mixed oil. Totally twenty mixed oil samples were prepared with different ratios of light to crude oil from different oil wells but the same oil field. The viscosities of the mixtures under the same shear rates of 10 s**-1 were measured using a rotation viscometer at the temperatures ranging from 30°C to 120°C. After comparing all of the experimental data with the corresponding model values, the best one of the five models for this oil field was determined. Using the experimental data, one model with a better accuracy than the existing models was developed to calculate the viscosity of mixed oils. Another model was derived to predict the viscosity of mixed oils at different temperatures and different values of mixing ratio of light to heavy oil.

Tris(2-ethylhexyl) trimellitate (TOTM) was recently suggested as a reference fluid for industrial use associated with high viscosity at elevated temperature and pressure. Viscosity and density data have already been published on one sample covering the temperature range (303-373) K and at pressures up to about 65 MPa. The viscosity covered a range from about (9 to 460) mPa s. In the present article we study several other characteristics of TOTM that must be available if it were to be adopted as a standard. First, we present values for the viscosity and density obtained with a different sample of TOTM to examine the important feature of consistency among different samples. Vibrating-wire viscosity measurements were performed at pressures from (5 to 100) MPa, along 6 isotherms between (303 and 373) K. Density measurements were carried out from (293 to 373) K up to 68 MPa, along 4 isotherms, using an Anton Paar DMA HP vibrating U-tube densimeter. Secondly, we report a study of the effect of water contamination on the viscosity of TOTM, performed using an Ubbelhode viscometer under atmospheric pressure. Finally, in order to support the use of TOTM as a reference liquid for the calibration of capillary viscometers, values of its surface tension, obtained by the pendant drop method, are provided.

The article reports density measurements of dipropyl (DPA), dibutyl (DBA) and bis(2-ethylhexyl) (DEHA) adipates, using a vibrating U-tube densimeter, model DMA HP, from Anton Paar GmbH. The measurements were performed in the temperature range (293 to 373) K and at pressures up to about 68 MPa, except for DPA for which the upper limits were 363 K and 65 MPa, respectively. The density data for each liquid was correlated with the temperature and pressure using a modified Tait equation. The expanded uncertainty of the present density results is estimated as 0.2% at a 95% confidence level. No literature density data at pressures higher than 0.1 MPa could be found. DEHA literature data at atmospheric pressure agree with the correlation of the present measurements, in the corresponding temperature range, within +/- 0.11%. The isothermal compressibility and the isobaric thermal expansion were calculated by differentiation of the modified Tait correlation equation. These two parameters were also calculated for dimethyl adipate (DMA), from density data reported in a previous work. The uncertainties of isothermal compressibility and the isobaric thermal expansion are estimated to be less than +/- 1.7% and +/- 1.1%, respectively, at a 95% confidence level. Literature data of isothermal compressibility and isobaric thermal expansivity for DMA have an agreement within +/- 1% and +/- 2.4%, respectively, with results calculated in this work.

In Part I of the present work we describe the viscosity measurements performed on tris(2-ethylhexyl) trimellitate or 1,2,4-benzenetricarboxylic acid, tris(2-ethylhexyl) ester (TOTM) up to 65 MPa and at six temperatures from (303 to 373)K, using a new vibrating-wire instrument. The main aim is to contribute to the proposal of that liquid as a potential reference fluid for high viscosity, high pressure and high temperature. The present Part II is dedicated to report the density measurements of TOTM necessary, not only to compute the viscosity data presented in Part I, but also as complementary data for the mentioned proposal. The present density measurements were obtained using a vibrating U-tube densimeter, model DMA HP, using model DMA5000 as a reading unit, both instruments from Anton Paar GmbH. The measurements were performed along five isotherms from (293 to 373)K and at eleven different pressures up to 68 MPa. As far as the authors are aware, the viscosity and density results are the first, above atmospheric pressure, to be published for TOTM. Due to TOTM's high viscosity, its density data were corrected for the viscosity effect on the U-tube density measurements. This effect was estimated using two Newtonian viscosity standard liquids, 20 AW and 200 GW. The density data were correlated with temperature and pressure using a modified Tait equation. The expanded uncertainty of the present density results is estimated as +/- 0.2% at a 95% confidence level. Those results were correlated with temperature and pressure by a modified Tait equation, with deviations within +/- 0.25%. Furthermore, the isothermal compressibility, K-T, and the isobaric thermal expansivity, alpha(p), were obtained by derivation of the modified Tait equation used for correlating the density data. The corresponding uncertainties, at a 95% confidence level, are estimated to be less than +/- 1.5% and +/- 1.2%, respectively. No isobaric thermal expansivity and isothermal compressibility for TOTM were found in the literature. (C) 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The paper reports viscosity measurements of compressed liquid dipropyl (DPA) and dibutyl (DBA) adipates obtained with two vibrating wire sensors developed in our group. The vibrating wire instruments were operated in the forced oscillation, or steady-state mode. The viscosity measurements of DPA were carried out in a range of pressures up to 18. MPa and temperatures from (303 to 333). K, and DBA up to 65. MPa and temperature from (303 to 373). K, covering a total range of viscosities from (1.3 to 8.3). mPa. s. The required density data of the liquid samples were obtained in our laboratory using an Anton Paar vibrating tube densimeter and were reported in a previous paper. The viscosity results were correlated with density, using a modified hard-spheres scheme. The root mean square deviation of the data from the correlation is less than (0.21 and 0.32)% and the maximum absolute relative deviations are within (0.43 and 0.81)%, for DPA and DBA respectively. No data for the viscosity of both adipates could be found in the literature. Independent viscosity measurements were also performed, at atmospheric pressure, using an Ubbelohde capillary in order to compare with the vibrating wire results. The expanded uncertainty of these results is estimated as ±1.5% at a 95% confidence level. The two data sets agree within the uncertainty of both methods. © 2015 Published by Elsevier B.V.

IDENTIFICACION DEL PROBLEMA DE ESTUDIO: La extracción de aceite de soja, de contenido igual o menor al 20% en peso de materia seca, se realiza con solvente. El aceite se encuentra dentro de las células en organellas, por lo tanto las células de la semilla deben ser destruídas para que el aceite se encuentre disponible a la solubilización en el solvente. HIPOTESIS: En trabajos anteriores se ha demostrado que es posible aplicar una hidrólisis multienzimática sobre laminado de soja para aumentar el rendimiento de la extracción de aceite con hexano (Grasso, F. y col, 2002). Si esta operación es adecuada, el proceso puede aumentar la producción de aceite sin aumentar la capacidad de la planta. Utilizando un procedimiento de "extrusión reactiva", el reactor puede funcionar en forma continua con interacción completa de la solución enzimática y el laminado de soja, sin restricciones difusivas. En la convocatoria anterior del PID se desarrolló el plan de trabajo para llegar a la construcción del reactor. En esta convocatoria se plantea continuar con los estudios necesarios PLANTEO DE OBJETIVOS: Modelado y diseño de un Extrusor Reactivo Multienzimático de Tornillo Simple, adaptado a la línea de proceso convencional para la extracción de aceite de soja por solvente, para lograr aumento en el rendimiento de extracción sin modificar la capacidad instalada. MATERIALES Láminas de soja (Aceitera Bunge S. A.). Enzimas: alfa-amilasa, proteasa, celulasa, hemicelulasa, glucoamilasa y pectinasa (Enzyme Development Corporation - NY). Reómetro (Physica MCR 301-Anton Paar). Dispositivo para modelizado. Reactor. METODOS: Construcción de dispositivo para la simulación de la reacción multienzimática dentro del extrusor. Obtención de datos reológicos del material tratado. Modelado del comportamiento y comparación con las muestras sin enzimas. RESULTADOS ESPERADOS: Construcción del dispositivo para el pretratamiento multienzimático de laminado de soja para la extracción de aceite a escala de laboratorio y planteo del escalado industrial. IMPORTANCIA DEL PROYECTO: El aceite y harina de soja han evolucionado favorablemente, adquiriendo mayor importancia la obtención de aceite debido al impulso por la producción de biocombustible y la exportación a países como China, donde grandes empresas han firmado contratos por cantidades de 120mil Tn de aceite. Este tipo de reactor, permite la posibilidad de realizar una modificación química que pueda adaptarse a la línea de proceso ya existente. Se logra además mejorar aspectos operativos como la reducción en la cantidad de solvente utilizado, teniendo en cuenta los intentos actuales por prescindir del uso de estas sustancias, ahorro de energía y mejor calidad del producto final.

In this Master’s Thesis work the rheological properties of different polysaccharide gels have been studied. The results of this study are used as a starting point for further investigations of potential applications. In order to understand rheological behavior of studied materials, the commercial hydrocolloids such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, xanthan gum and guar gum were used as reference and comparison material for rheological studies. As a part the rheological research the development and implementation of proper measurement methods for studied materials were carried out. In the literature review, short introductions of studied materials and application areas of rheological modifiers are summarized. In addition, basic rheological concepts and key fundamentals are explained. In the experimental part the focus was on the rheological characterization of aqueous suspensions of studied materials. Especially, gel strength and solution stability were investigated. The rheological measurements included both rotational and oscillatory measurements in different conditions, where several chemical and physical properties were measured with Anton Paar MCR302 dynamic rotational rheometer. Studied polysaccharide gels can be clearly defined to be shear thinning and thixotropic materials. They have strong gel forming properties even at low concentrations, which explains the superior thickening behavior for some of the samples. Along with rheological characterization of selected materials the factors behind different phenomena were investigated. To reveal value and potential use of polysaccharide gels the influence of various factors such as concentration, temperature and ionic strength were determined. The measurements showed a clear difference between studied materials under investigated external parameters.

This article reviews the history, chemical stratification, biology and biogeochemistry of Ace Lake, which is one of the many marine-derived meromictic (permanently stratified) lakes in the Vestfold Hills, Eastern Antarctica. The lake has an area of 18 ha, a maximum depth of 25 m, and a salinity range from 7 to 43 g l**-1. The lake mixes to a depth of 7 m in late winter as a result of brine freeze out during ice formation. Deeper mixing is precluded by a sharp halocline. The water beneath 12 m is permanently anoxic, The lake was formed approximately 10,800 yr BP as the polar ice cap melted. Sea level rise 7,800 yr BP resulted in invasion of seawater into the initially freshwater lake. Subsequently, sea level dropped, and the now saline lake became isolated from the ocean. The biota of the lake was derived from species trapped when the connection between the lake and the ocean was cut off. The oxic zone above 12 m supports a relatively simple community which includes microbial mats, four major species of phytoplankton (including a picocyanobacterium), two copepod species, and a variety of heterotrophic flagellates and ciliates. The anoxic zone contains populations of photosynthetic sulfur, sulfate reducing, fermentative and methanogenic bacteria, which combine to remineralise organic carbon which sediments from the upper waters. Research on the physics, biology and chemistry of Ace Lake has contributed significantly to knowledge of Antarctic meromictic lakes.

Microelectronic systems are multi-material, multi-layer structures, fabricated and exposed to environmental stresses over a wide range of temperatures. Thermal and residual stresses created by thermal mismatches in films and interconnections are a major cause of failure in microelectronic devices. Due to new device materials, increasing die size and the introduction of new materials for enhanced thermal management, differences in thermal expansions of various packaging materials have become exceedingly important and can no longer be neglected. X-ray diffraction is an analytical method using a monochromatic characteristic X-ray beam to characterize the crystal structure of various materials, by measuring the distances between planes in atomic crystalline lattice structures. As a material is strained, this interplanar spacing is correspondingly altered, and this microscopic strain is used to determine the macroscopic strain. This thesis investigates and describes the theory and implementation of X-ray diffraction in the measurement of residual thermal strains. The design of a computer controlled stress attachment stage fully compatible with an Anton Paar heat stage will be detailed. The stress determined by the diffraction method will be compared with bimetallic strip theory and finite element models.

X-Ray Powder Diffraction (XRPD) laboratory is a facility placed at Servicios Centrales de apoyo a la Investigación (SCAI) at University of Malaga (UMA) http://www.scai.uma.es/. This facility has three XRPD diffractometers and a diffractometer to measure high-resolution thin-films. X´Pert PRO MPD from PANalytical. This is a bragg-brentano (theta/2theta) with reflection geometry diffractometer which allows to obtain high resolution XRPD data with strictly monochromatic CuKα1 radiation (λ=1.54059Å) [Ge(111) primary monochromator] and an automatic sample charger. Moreover, it has parallel monochromatic CuKα1 radiation (λ=1.54059Å) with an hybrid Ge(220) monochromator for capillary and multiproposal (bulk samples up to 1 Kg) sample holders. The HTK1200N chamber from Anton Paar allows collecting high resolution high temperature patterns. EMPYREAN from PANalytical. This diffractometer works in reflection and transmission geometries with theta/theta goniometer, using CuKα1,2 radiation (λ=1.5418Å), a focusing X-ray mirror and a ultra-fast PIXCEL 3D detector with 1D and 2D collection data modes (microstructural and preferred orientation analysis). Moreover, the TTK450N chamber allows low temperature and up to 450ºC studies. A D8 ADVANCE (BRUKER) was installed in April 2014. It is the first diffractometer in Europe equipped with a Johansson Ge(111) primary monochromator, which gives a strictly monochromatic Mo radiation (λ=0.7093 Å) [1]. It works in transmission mode (with a sample charger) with this high resolution configuration. XRPD data suitable for PDF (Pair Distribution Function) analysis can be collected with a capillary sample holder, due to the high energy and high resolution capabilities of this diffractometer. Moreover, it has a humidity chamber MHC-trans from Anton Paar working on transmission mode with MoKα1 (measurements can be collected at 5 to 95% of relative humidity (from 20 to 80 ºC) and up to 150ºC [2]). Furthermore, this diffractometer also has a reaction chamber XRK900 from Anton Paar (which uses CuKα1,2 radiation in reflection mode), which allows data collection from room temperature to 900ºC with up to 10 bar of different gases. Finally, a D8 DISVOVER A25 from BRUKER was installed on December 2014. It has a five axis Euler cradler and optics devices suitable for high resolution thin film data collection collected in in-plane and out-of-plane modes. To sum up, high-resolution thin films, microstructural, rocking-curve, Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS), Grazing incident SAXS (GISAXS), Ultra Grazing incident diffraction (Ultra-GID) and microdiffraction measurements can be performed with the appropriated optics and sample holders.

L’aumento del consumo di energia globale e le problematiche legate all’inquinamento stanno rendendo indispensabile lo spostamento verso fonti di energia rinnovabile. La digestione anaerobica rappresenta una possibile soluzione in quanto permette di produrre biogas da biomassa organica di scarto ma, l’ottimizzazione del processo risulta difficoltosa a causa delle numerose variabili chimiche, biologiche, fisiche e geometriche correlate. Nel presente elaborato, concentrandosi sulle problematiche relative alla miscelazione interna, è stata investigata la fluidodinamica interna di un reattore modello ottenuto tramite scale-down di un digestore anaerobico industriale che presentava problemi di sedimentazione di sostanza solida sul fondo del reattore. Tramite tecniche di diagnostica ottiche, è stato studiato il movimento del fluido, prima utilizzando acqua demineralizzata e poi una soluzione di gomma di xantano come fluido di processo, al fine di studiare il campo di moto medio interno al reattore. Le tecniche utilizzate sono la Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) e la Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (PLIF). Al fine di rendere il sistema investigato il più rappresentativo possibile del digestore industriale, è stato utilizzato come fluido di processo per alcune delle prove raccolte, una soluzione acquosa 1,0g/kg di gomma di xantano, le cui proprietà reologiche sono state investigate grazie ad un Reometro Anton Paar MCR 301.
