(Texas A&M University, 1996)The implementation of the Federal Clean Air Act Amendments will force cotton gins to reduce particulate matter emissions. The first-stage lint cleaner is the emitting point of a gin with the highest emission rate of fine ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1969)Investigations were conducted to relate the physical characteristics of cottonseed to germination, subsequent seedling growth and final plant development. Many researchers have postulated that certain physical characteristics ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)Since plant water deficits are extremely hard to predict from either soil moisture or atmospheric demands, direct measurements on the plants are evaluated as indicators of moisture stress in crops. The plant measurements ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1970)A 30° small model aquifer with fine sand was used to simulate the process of groundwater recharge through wells under gravity flow. The sediment-laden water was characterized by suspended solids which were a mixture of 50 ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Process synthesis is the initial stage in process design. There are potentially many different flowsheets that can be created for transforming the raw materials into products. Process synthesis endeavors to find the more ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1995)Automatic twin screw extruder (TSE) control was implemented
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Artificial suppression of the immune system is vital to organ transplant therapy as well as treatment of auto-immune diseases. Unfortunately few non-toxic immunosuppressive drugs exist. In search for such pharmaceuticals ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1971)Research was conducted to refine a technique for producing uniform diameter spray drops by inducing cyclic disturbances on low-velocity jet streams. A sonic device was used to create pressure pulses in a liquid-filled ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1971)The quantitative measurement of an electrostatic charge on the body of a living housefly was demonstrated. The mechanical facility for doing this consisted of a large air-type electrical capacitor. A n interior, d.c. ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1971)Reclamation processes of a layered soil were studied using different compositions and concentrations of electrolyte water. Three units of soil with a fine sandy loam topsoil and a sandy clay subsoil were used to evaluate ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1991)Sweet sorghum is one of the most attractive feedstocks for production of energy and chemicals from biomass because of its high yield and carbohydrate content. The goal of this study was to evaluate the utility of the rumen ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1973)A series of tests were conducted to determine if tensiles train in deep storage bin walls increased significantly when ambient temperatures decreased. Theoretical analysis, based on beams on elastic foundation theory, was ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1981)Experimental and theoretical studies of processing techniques for production of alcohol from sugarcane or sweet sorghum were conducted. Stalk chopping, juice extraction, and pulp extraction were the feedstock processing ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)Analytical models of hot water injection into groundwater aquifers were developed in this study. Available analytical models of this problem assume that the caprock overlying the aquifer is of infinite thickness. However, ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1980)Rough rice drying has been studied for years and described mathematically by various researchers. Some have used diffusion equations or have adopted semi-theoretical models in explaining the drying process. But none ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1971)Research was conducted to compare the atomization and drift characteristics of several herbicide carriers under controlled environmental conditions in a horizontal wind tunnel. The wind tunnel had a height of 4.25 ft and ...
