"Determination of the legal status of current account contract in light of Jordanian Commercial law provisions.".

This research paper examined the legal status and characteristics of current bank account under Jordanian Commercial law Code number 12 of the year 1966. Despite the contradicting theories established to determine the legal status of the current account, it was found that characterizing it as a loan contract is the most suitable to its status and corresponds with the customary rules of current banking practice. Thus, the theory that deems current account as a loan contract is the most credible theory.

Corrosion behavior of pure titanium anodes in saline medium and their performance for humic acid removal by electrocoagulation.

The corrosion behavior of Ti electrodes and the dependence of their anodic dissolution with the experimental conditions, namely pH, current density (j) and supporting electrolyte nature, have been investigated. Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) tests have been performed. It has been found that pH has a relevant effect on the electrochemical dissolution of Ti.

Optimal conditions for olive mill wastewater treatment using ultrasound and advanced oxidation processes.

The treatment of olive mill wastewater (OMW) in Jordan was investigated in this work using ultrasound oxidation (sonolysis) combined with other advanced oxidation processes such as ultraviolet radiation, hydrogen peroxide (HO) and titanium oxide (TiO) catalyst. The efficiency of the combined oxidation process was evaluated based on the changes in the chemical oxygen demand (COD). The results showed that 59% COD removal was achieved within 90 min in the ultrasound /UV/TiO system.

Analysis of the potential use of major refuse-derived fuels in Jordan as supplementary fuel.

Unlabelled: The increasing energy demand in Jordan, compounded with the country's limited natural resources as well as its dependence on importing fuel oil from neighboring countries, makes it indispensible to search for alternative fuels. The objective of this study is to analyze the potential use of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) as a supplementary fuel in Jordan, for this purpose. Nine of the major RDFs generated in Jordan were chosen for this study: wastewater sludge, oil refinery sludge, olive oil husk, olive oil residue, chicken farm waste, sheep farm waste, used cooking oil, used oil, and waste tires.

On-line production of ferrate with an electrochemical method and its potential application for wastewater treatment--a review.

A number of studies on the oxidation of various organic/inorganic contaminants by ferrate(VI) were reported in the 1980s and 1990s. The exploration of the use of ferrate(VI) for water and wastewater treatment has been well addressed recently. However, challenges have existed for the implementation of ferrate(VI) technology in practice due to the instability of a ferrate solution or high production cost of solid ferrate products.
