Influence of oxyhydrogen gas retrofit into two-stroke engine on emissions and exhaust gas temperature variations.

The generation of power and fuel sustainability that contributes to a cleaner output of exhaust gases is one of the most important objectives the world seeks. In this paper, oxyhydrogen gas is used to retrofit into a two-stroke engine. The water was electrolysed and generated a mixture of oxygen (O) and hydrogen (H) or known as oxyhydrogen (HHO) gas via an electrolytic dry cell generator.

Biological and environmental studies on pectin-zirconium (IV) phosphate, a biopolymer doped hybrid cation exchanger.

Pectin, a biological macromolecule-doped zirconium (IV) Phosphate is reported as a novel ion exchanger which has been characterized by few physico-chemical characterization techniques such as FTIR analysis, XRD, TGA/DTA, DSC, SEM study, UV-vis spectrophotometry and elemental analysis. The method of synthesis along with ion exchange characterization has also been reported including ion exchange capacity, thermal stability, concentration and elution study. Adsorption study has been explored for few alkaline earths and transition metal ions in several acidic media.
