Energy saving effect analysis of water system renovation in a coking plant

A coking plant extended many times, and its capacity of the cooling water system is not match with it, the consumption of new water is much more than that used by others in the same industry. The water system renovation is addressed for an extended coking plant. The installation of two 600 m3/h cooling towers and restoration the existing two cooling towers are to promote the cooling capacity so that the amount of discharge and feed could be reduced. At the same time, the pipe net for waste water reutilisation is installed, by which part of the waste water is reused as supplement water for quenching hot coke and the other was piped to ironworks for reuse. With the field test, the water consumption per ton of coke production is cut down from 9.03 m3 to 3.21 m3. And the annual water saving is more than 6×106 m3. Furthermore, the electric consumption is reduced by 2×106 kWh and about 3×106 yuan of annual running cost is saved.     

An improved morphological edge detection algorithm of medical image

Medical images usually contain much noise which affects the edge detection accuracy. Focusing on this problem, based on the edge detection operator in mathematical morphology, an improved edge detection algorithm is presented by combining the features of the multi structure elements and the multi scale edge detection algorithm. The algorithm performs opening and closing operations on the data with the alternative sequence filters and the structure elements. The weighting operation is applied with different weight coefficients for horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions, while the edge detection operator with dilation type is calculated to obtain the improved edge detection algorithm. The steps of the algorithm are described. The algorithm is used to extract the edge of MRI image as well as the image of Lena. The experimental results indicate the algorithm can considerably improve the edge resolution of the traditional morphological edge detection methods and is practical.     

Atomizing properties of emulsified oil jet

Development model of emulsified oil jet and micro-explosion properties of water drops are analyzed,cavitation effect can change the jet atomizing angle,therefore,an important guideline to describe oil jet atomization is atomizing angle. Absolute diesel fuel and different moisture content emulsified diesel fuels are researched by high-speed camera system from the experiment for studying the atomizing properties of water drops when high-voltage impulse injects the gas medium. The theory and experimental results show that lots of water drops of emulsified oil reduce jet dynamic strength when the jet unloads,so it has stronger dispersed properties. Emulsified diesel fuel can spray more capacity than absolute diesel fuel,the width of jet is greater and the spraying atomizing angle increases. When the moisture percent of emulsified oil is 10%,the atomizing angle can get to the maximum.

Carbon dioxide fluxes across the Sierra de Guadarrama, Spain

Understanding the spatial and temporal variation in soil respiration within small geographic areas is essential to accurately assess the carbon budget on a global scale. In this study, we investigated the factors controlling soil respiration in an altitudinal gradient in a southern Mediterranean mixed pine–oak forest ecosystem in the north face of the Sierra de Guadarrama in Spain. Soil respiration was measured in five Pinus sylvestris L. plots over a period of 1 year by means of a closed dynamic system (LI-COR 6400). Soil temperature and water content were measured at the same time as soil respiration. Other soil physico-chemical and microbiological properties were measured during the study. Measured soil respiration ranged from 6.8 to 1.4 μmol m^?2 s^?1, showing the highest values at plots situated at higher elevation. Q ₁₀ values ranged between 1.30 and 2.04, while R ₁₀ values ranged between 2.0 and 3.6. The results indicate that the seasonal variation of soil respiration was mainly controlled by soil temperature and moisture. Among sites, soil carbon and nitrogen stocks regulate soil respiration in addition to soil temperature and moisture. Our results suggest that application of standard models to estimate soil respiration for small geographic areas may not be adequate unless other factors are considered in addition to soil temperature.     

Epidemiological study of pasture-associated laminitis and concurrent risk factors in the South of England

A retrospective study of laminitis was carried out to identify risk factors associated with this disease on an East Anglian farm with approximately 1000 animals living in an area of 1000 acres. Medical records between January 1997 and May 2000 and between April 2005 and March 2008 were reviewed, and the age, sex, weight (kg), height (inches [in] and hands [H]) and weight-to-height ratio (kg/in) was recorded. The prevalence, incidence and seasonality of laminitis were determined and their relationship to the monthly temperature, rainfall and hours of sunshine was evaluated. Averaged over the six years, the highest prevalence (2.6 per cent) and incidence (16 cases/1000 animals) of laminitis occurred in May. The findings of a multivariate analysis revealed that females (P=0.007, odds ratio [OR] 1.46, 95 per cent confidence interval [CI] 1.1053 to 1.9646) and light animals (P ≤ 0.001, OR=0.995, 95 per cent CI =0.9932 to 0.9963) had the greatest risk of developing laminitis. A positive association was found between hours of sunshine and incidence (P=0.007, relative risk [RR] 1.009, 95 per cent CI 1.001 to 1.012) and prevalence (P=0.002, RR 1.008, 95 per cent CI 1.003 to 1.012) of laminitis. The data suggest that there is a relationship between season, sex of the animal and the development of laminitis.     

Carcase characteristics and qualitative meat traits of three Italian local chicken breeds

1. An experiment involving 60 male chickens reared in an organic production system was carried out in order to investigate carcase characteristics and qualitative meat traits of three slow-growing Italian local breeds of chicken (Ermellinata, Padovana and Pepoi). 2. Chicks were randomly selected at hatch, raised together under the same conditions, slaughtered at 190 d of age, dissected for carcase traits, and meat (breast and thigh) stored for subsequent analysis of quality parameters. 3. Ermellinata (EA) chickens were significantly different from Padovana (PA) and Pepoi (PI) chickens for live, carcase and thigh weights. Breeds were also different for breast muscle protein content (EA > PI and PA), shear force (PA < EA and PI) and cooking loss (PI > PA and EA) values. 4. The CIE system values of lightness (L*), redness (a*), and yellowness (b*) evidenced a distinctive darker meat and lighter skin colour of PA breast meat. 5. Polyunsaturated fatty acids composition of breast meat was similar among the analysed breeds. EA had significantly higher saturated but significantly lower monounsaturated fatty acid contents than the other two breeds.
