    Abstract: The adsorption equilibria of pure supercritical N2 and CO2 on the activated carbon Yigao-A and carbon molecular sieve CMS-200 were measured by the gravimetric method (IGA-001, Hiden) in the temperature region of 313.15-393.15 K and pressure region of 0-2 MPa. The adsorption kinetics of N2 and of CO2 on the activated carbon Yigao-A and carbon molecu... Show More

    Abstract: Tetra Pak packaging is considered an important source of high quality waste paper for pulp industry. Parallel to the fibre recovery a large quantity of PE-Al laminate is produced as by product. Reclaiming that perspective resource will be in focus of many pulp processing plants as conventional ways of disposing of such material are limited by new r... Show More

    Abstract: The immobilization of the lipase of Candida antartica B (LCAB) by adsorption on a natural silica support carried out to develop the adsorbent local supports. Immobilization conditions and characterization of the immobilized enzyme were investigated. Response surface methodology (RSM) and 3-level–3-factor fractional factorial design were employed to...
