How to Produce Biodiesel

The general problem on natural energy source in the world have been thought by many scientist and technologist to create new energy synthetic to modified other energy that come from plant can be used also as energy in industry and in our home, because the plant energy source can be renewed, while energy from mineral can’t be renewed. Many scientist have try to produce biodiesel from many source but just few of their experiment can be applied into the real production. Biodiesel Separation Several oil plant can be proceed into fuel oil through several process stage. Most of the animal fats, vegetables and oils contain glycerin and are thus called triglycerides can be proceed to make biofuels, all the fats and oils are turned into esters, then separating the glycerin. At the end of the process, all the glycerin sinks down at the bottom and all the biodiesel rests at the top. The process through which the glycerin is separated from the biodiesel is known as transesterification. Th...

Oxygen Generator

Oxygen for respiratory is usually produced by a PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) tools that contain of separation process of Oxygen and Nitrogen. In ordinary atmosphere the contain of oxygen about 20.9 percent and other main contain is 75% of Nitrogen, the rest are a small percentage of inert gas. The PSA is worked to separating air from Nitrogen gas. Oxygen Generator A PSA is containing a molecular sieve called as Zeolite that is filled with compressed air. Nitrogen molecule will adsorbed by sieve materials while the oxygen molecules drift past and are collected in oxygen receiver tank. Thank pressure then released from vessel and nitrogen gas is vented to atmosphere. The process is continued the cycle with repeated fill the second vessel to provide a constant flow of gas. The oxygen can be purified until 95% contained as informed by equipment vendor. The capacity of this equipment can be varied depend on the user want to produce oxygen. The Diagram of oxygen purification ...

Chemical Properties and Physical Properties

Every raw material is include of chemicals or non chemicals. But every raw material will have chemical properties and physical properties. Chemical properties will related to the basic chemicals and the properties will talk about chemistry knowledge, while physical properties related to physical state and usually visibel but not all physical properties can be seen. Chemical properties of goods is how that goods behave in their environment, because some material will danger if contact with water, or even danger if contact with air. For all thing that have these behavior usually include on chemicals. Chemical can be reacted to other substance, to this knowledge you must learning the basic chemistry. Chemicals usually have fuild or gas form but many of them are in solid state. All the behavior of chemicals must be state together with things they are sent to, and mentioned how the characteristic of the chemicals, how danger the chemical to human, how to treat the chemi...

Chemical Engineering Job

Chemical Engineering will work as Chemical engineer that can be work in Chemical Industry, in Chemical Engineering Consultant, or as Engineering Designer. Chemical engineering should understand knowledge on Chemistry combine with engineering knowledge. Like in industry chemical engineering must know the process chemical in plant system. Know the basic characteristic of each chemical and physical property, and must know the process equipment should running. Chemical Engineering in Industry can be function as the expert on the process production and they should know or estimate the reaction should go in the plant system. Chemical engineering can modify or redesign the process production system if assume there is abnormal condition on the chemical reaction. To find a job as chemical engineering you can connect with chemical engineering job hunter, or in “virtual” Career Fair. Reach qualified candidates with varied, specialized backgrounds at all experience levels. You can find job op...

Chemical Process Using Electric Current

Chemical process using electric current commonly called as electrochemical, but for general people this name may don’t familiar. Named by Electrochemical because on the process involved the chemicals and electrical, so the whole process called as electrochemical. Electrochemical is not just happened in plant or industry or laboratory, this process also always happened in nature. This process can go and trigger by any different voltage surround the chemicals substance. The different voltage on the environment of certain substance can Electrochemical Cell cause the reaction happened. For example the process of corrode, because of any voltage different make iron that stick to copper can be corroded faster than other metal that don’t stacked to copper metal. This condition used to happen on Air Conditioner tubing. Other metal in AC corroded faster than other iron on other product. Now this condition have been avoided by replace the metal with plastic material. On the process of e...

Piling Sulfur Can Be Dangerous

If you have huge of sulfur, usually this material will be piled in somewhere. But you must be carefure to keep this material in better condition because sometimes on unsuitable condition this sulfur can be very flammable because they are reacted with atmosphere air. Some precaution on storing sulfur should be attention like don't make this material hot or rise temperature pile make the sulfur can react with air into other flammable substance like Hidrogen Sulfide (H2S) or react with air become Sulfur dioxide (SO2). Even the fire exist because of this reaction is not big but the effect of burning of gas H2S can create SO2 gas that is dangerous to our live. People can't stand long time on the existance of this gas, so if huge gas exist on the atmosphere can make people collapse because shortage of oxygen and irritant effect on the our respiratory system. On the storage must avoid from mixing with chlorate and nitrate agent, or other oxidizing agent because this sulfur can ...

Asbestos Already Banned

The using of asbestos material is banned in several countries, because of several cases have founded people sick because of asbestos effect. Since asbestos related disease has been identified by medical profession in the late 1920s, workers compensation cases were filed and resolved in secrecy, with a flood of litigation starting in the United States in the 1970s. Mainly in individually brought cases for terminal cases of asbestosis and cancers. Some countries that already banned using of asbestos material as follows: International law Australia Brazil Canada France India Italy Japan South Korea New Zealand United Kingdom United States And some diseases have known causes by asbestos as below: Asbestosis - A lung disease first found in textile workers, asbestosis is a scarring of the lung tissue from an acid produced by the body's attempt to dissolve the fibers. The scarring may eventually become so severe that the lungs can no longer function. The latency period ...
