Abstract: The contamination of soil and water with heavy metals, such as cadmium and lead, is a serious problem. Previous remediation techniques are not effective when these two toxic elements are immobilized. Microbial induced carbonate precipitation has been proven to effectively remove heavy...

In this study, experiments were conducted on a single-cylinder high speed SI (spark ignition) engine fueled with 30 and 35%vol butanol/gasoline blends and compared to the pure gasoline. This research is trying to find out the common principles about the influence on combustion heat release of...

The study approach of this paper is to combine experiment and simulation on using butanol as fuel in gasoline engine. First, experiments were performed under full load on a single cylinder spark ignition engine fueled with 35%vol butanol–gasoline blend and the pure gasoline, respectively. The...
