Heat Generated Simulation with Bacteria and Fungi inCrude Oil Remediation in an Aerated Lagoon
Abstract: Studies on the heat generated by bacteria and fungi in an aerated lagoon were monitored by theapplication of MATLAB computed software simulation. Mathematical models were developed in termsof substrate utilization by microbes and correlated with the Monod’s equation model which revealedthe trend of heat generated at different operating temperature of 15°C, 30°C, 45°C, 60°C, 75°C,…
A Comprehensive Review of Classical Thermodynamics:Principles, Laws, and Applications
Abstract: Classical thermodynamics, a fundamental branch of physics and engineering, provides a macroscopicframework for understanding energy, work, and heat interactions in physical systems. This reviewcomprehensively examines the principles, laws, and practical applications of classicalthermodynamics, emphasizing its enduring relevance in modern science and engineering. Beginningwith the foundational concepts of system, surroundings, state, and equilibrium, the study explores…
Indigo Carmine Oxidations in Aqueous and Micellar Media Using Specific Oxidants—A Review Article
Abstract: Abstract Indigo carmine is an anionic synthetic dye widely used in textile, food, and pharmaceutical industries. The discharge of this dye into water bodies poses severe environmental concerns due to its intense color, more stability, and resistance to biodegradation. Consequently, the oxidation and degradation of this dye through electron transfer reactions have been widely investigated.…
Mechanistic Insights into Solvent-Controlled Stepwise and Concerted Cycloadditions of the Propadienyl Cation with Oxoamides: A DFT Study
Abstract: AbstractOxazoles constitute an important class of heterocycles with widespread applications in medicinal chemistry and materials science, yet the mechanistic features governing their formation via cationic cycloaddition reactions remain incompletely understood. In this work, we present a comprehensive density functional theory (DFT) investigation into the reaction between the propadienyl cation and oxoamides as a model system…
Advances and Emerging Trends in Classical and Modern Thermodynamics.
Abstract: Thermodynamics, as a foundational discipline of physical science, has continually evolved from its classical roots to modern, interdisciplinary applications. Classical thermodynamics established the laws governing energy, entropy, and equilibrium, providing the framework for analyzing heat engines, refrigeration cycles, and chemical processes. Recent advances have expanded these principles into new domains, integrating statistical mechanics, quantum theory,…
Non-Equilibrium Entropy Pathways in Complex Fluids: A New Framework for Thermodynamic Irreversibility
Abstract: When a system is driven, sheared, stretched, heated, or pressurized under varying thermodynamic gradients and kept away from equilibrium, ultra-microscopic rearrangements begin to occur, indicating continuous energy dissipation. Along these energy pathways, the microstructures of complex fluids undergo multiple stages of reforming and rearrangement. In complex fluids composed of identical compounds (chemically identical species), these…
