This study was aimed to investigate the use of pineapple as a cheap, eco-friendly adsorbent and support matrix for the immobilization of microbial cell and for subsequent removal of phenol from waste water. The effects of initial phenol concentration, pH and adsorbent particle si...
In this study, the influence of four operating parameters (pH, salinity, nitrate concentration and immersion time) and their interactions on the microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC) rate of mild steel in simulated crude oil environments were investigated by response surfa...

In this study, the effects of methanol-to-oil molar ratio, catalyst amount and reaction time on the transesterification of waste cooking oil (WCO) to biodiesel were investigated. Methanol with calcium oxide as a heterogeneous catalyst was used for the transesterification process...
In this research work, the optimum process variables (catalyst, methanol to oil ratio and reaction time) for transesterification of palm oil sludge (POS) to biodiesel were studied. The transesterification process was carried by mixture of palm oil sludge, methanol and catalyst wi...
