A continuous conveyor-belt processing concept using microwave heating was developed
and evaluated. Four hydrocarbon-contaminated soils were used as model feedstocks, and …

This paper reports a study of two batch processing systems to assess scale-up of microwave
treatment of contaminated soils. Two separate batch concepts were evaluated at a kilogram …

Photo-initiated, oxygen-mediated degradation of the molecules in the active layer of organic
photovoltaic, OPV, devices currently limits advances in the development of solar cells. To …

This work aims to obtain essential data for the in situ application of microwave (MW) heating
for hydrocarbon-polluted soil remediation. For this purpose, lab-scale experiments were …

Electromagnetic heating techniques have recently received significant attention as
alternatives to conventional heating methods for thermal processing of viscous and heavy …

A solvent free in situ microwave hydro-distillation method for extraction of essential oil from
fresh ginger root it presented. Extraction was conducted in a TE10n single-mode microwave …

The synthesis of methyl methacrylate (MMA) oligomers by catalytic chain transfer
polymerization (CCTP) is demonstrated to be significantly accelerated by the use of …

Current industrial production of polymer resins is generally undertaken in large multi-tonne
stirred tank reactors. These are characterised by relatively slow heating and cooling cycles …

The effects of microwave power and solvent–reactant dielectric properties on the kinetics of
the decomposition of AIBN in n-butanol were investigated. According to the kinetic data, k …

Radical polymerization is one of the most useful methods for synthesis of homo-and
copolymers derived from a large number of monomers, due to its tolerance toward many …
