Abstract Research will be done and two experiments will be conducted to evaluate ethanol as a fuel‚ the experiments are Fermentation and Calorimetry. Fermentation will find the best combination of sugar and yeast for optimum ethanol production and the Calorimetry experiments test ethanol against other alcohols and fuels to see how it matches up in terms of energy production. Fermentation shows glucose and baker’s yeast as the fastest producers of ethanol and the calorimetry proves that ethanol and

Polymer Chemistry Classification of Polymers – Notes prepared by The most common way of classifying polymers is to separate them into three groups - thermoplastics‚ thermosets‚ and elastomers5. The thermoplastics can be divided into two types - those that are crystalline and those that are amorphous. You may click on the words in the diagram below to learn more about these classifications. Thermoplastics Molecules in a thermoplastic are held together by relatively weak intermolecular

difficult to achieve both high Pt dispersion (small particles) and high metal loadings at the same time. High metal loading generally comes with larger particles. Here‚ we report a technique using a polymer‚ poly-(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP)‚ in a polyol (ethylene glycol) solution to mediate the size of Pt nanoparticles and control their size

mixed with sand and chemicals to create fracking fluid. Approximately 40‚000 gallons of chemicals are used per fracturing. • Up to 600 chemicals are used in fracking fluid‚ including known carcinogens and toxins such as… lead‚ uranium‚ mercury‚ ethylene glycol‚ radium‚ methanol‚ hydrochloric acid‚ formaldehyde • The math: 500‚000 active gas wells in the US x 8 million gallons of water per fracking x 18 times a well can be fracked = 72 trillion gallons of water and 360 gallons of chemicals needed

The purpose of this experiment was to successfully produce stilbene dibromide by using a more sustainable approach‚ which would prevent less environmental issues. This was done by brominating trans-stilbene and then using the elimination process on the dibrominated product. This process is considered “greener” compared to the original bromination procedures. In order to create the alkyl halides‚ which are able to undergo chemical transformations more readily than the carbon-carbon double bond‚ onto

Organic Chemistry II Lab 9 Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose * Introduction Ethanol is one of the oldest alcohols and also the least toxic one. Industrially‚ ethanol is made most economically by hydration of ethylene. However‚ ethanol that is intended for human consumption must‚ by law‚ be prepared by fermentation. By either method‚ ethanol‚ of course‚ has the same formula‚ structure‚ and properties. The fermentation takes place with the assistance of enzymes from yeast

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 PRELIMINERIES Due to highly development of chemical and biochemical industries‚ acetic acid has largely produced to fulfil the needs of world demand in production of daily used products and for pharmaceutical needs. Therefore‚ this study is carried out to introduce the production of acetic acid using biological pathways which includes the used of microorganisms. In this chapter will briefly explained on the knowledge about acetic acid and the microorganism
