They were then torrefied at 450ºC for one hour. Washing was done to reduce the concentration of ash and alkaline oxides, which would reduce the chance of slagging and fouling. The research was conducted considering that information about washing the PKS with acetic acid and then having them torrefied is very limited and unclear. The results showed that washed and torrefied PKS had better characteristics than those of raw PKS or PKS washed with water. PKS that is washed with acid, torrefied and then blended with coal has low slagging and medium fouling tendencies. However, based on ash fusion temperature, the inclination towards slagging and fouling is high under reducing conditions and medium under oxidation conditions.

Coal-based activated carbon product is used as a precursor to clarify that the oxygen-blowing into precursor structure can form new site oxygencontaining on the surface. Oxygen functional groups are veri ed through calcination under a nitrogen atmosphere. The process of oxygen-blowing is conducted at different temperatures of 100, 200, 300, 400, and 500°C and calcination at 900°C under a nitrogen atmosphere. The oxygen-containing tended to increase at a temperature of 500°C and encountered the decomposition of functional groups from the hydroxyl to carboxyl groups. The high temperature of 900°C in the calcination process formed new sites of nitrogen-carboxyl groups bonded, which improved micropore volume and CO 2 adsorptionbreakthrough time exhibited the more extended time duration for the calcination samples. This study proved that oxygen-blowing and calcination on coal-based activated carbon products can generate the enhancement of functional groups and pore structure. The increase in adsorption capacity is relatively minor as the volatile matter of activated carbon is very low.

Characterization of the raw and dried coals was carried out through proximate, ultimate, calorific value, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Thermo Gravimetry-Differential Thermal Analysis (TG-DTA) to study the combustion behavior of the coals. This study used Indonesian low rank coals coming from Tabang (TKK coal) and Samurangau (SP coal), East Kalimantan. The results indicate that the calorific value of the dried coals increases significantly due to the decrease in moisture content of the coal. The FTIR spectrums show that the methylene-ethylene (RCH3/CH2) and aromaticity-aliphaticity ratios (Rar/al) of the dried coals increased while the ratio of RCO/ar decreased which reflect that the rank of the coals increased equivalent to the high rank coal (bituminous). Meanwhile, the TG-DTA indicates that the ignition temperature (Tig) and ...

Although adult categories are more resistant to GIN, a temporary loss of acquired immunity is presented around parturition, which results in the so-called "periparturient rise" (PPR) in fecal excretion of GIN eggs. The objective of the present work was to study the dynamic of the PPR and to model the faecal worm egg count (FEC) curve during the periparturient period in Uruguayan Merino sheep. Faecal samples were collected from lambing ewes during 2009 and 2010 parturitions. FEC and infective larvae cultures of each sampling were recorded. A total of 2,121 records from 748 ewes, the progeny of 107 sires, were used in the statistical analysis. FEC data were normalized using two logarithmic transformations: Log FEC = Log e (FEC + 100) and Log FEC_st (Log FEC with the variance standardized within contemporary group). Three functions were compared to shape the PPR curve. Haemonchus spp. was the most prevalent parasite. Log FEC_st was the selected response variable of the model, for its better adjustment to a normal distribution and a more homogeneous residual variance. The fixed regression model with Legendre polynomials was the selected one, based on the selection model criteria (Akaike & Schwarz Bayesian Information Criteria). The highest egg output was observed between two and four weeks post-lambing. In conclusion, the PPR observed in Uruguayan Merino lambing ewes had the maximum egg output matched with the milk production peak.

Characterization of the raw and dried coals was carried out through proximate, ultimate, calorific value, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Thermo Gravimetry-Differential Thermal Analysis (TG-DTA) to study the combustion behavior of the coals. This study used Indonesian low rank coals coming from Tabang (TKK coal) and Samurangau (SP coal), East Kalimantan. The results indicate that the calorific value of the dried coals increases significantly due to the decrease in moisture content of the coal. The FTIR spectrums show that the methylene-ethylene (RCH3/CH2) and aromaticity-aliphaticity ratios (Rar/al) of the dried coals increased while the ratio of RCO/ar decreased which reflect that the rank of the coals increased equivalent to the high rank coal (bituminous). Meanwhile, the TG-DTA indicates that the ignition temperature (Tig) and ...

Although adult categories are more resistant to GIN, a temporary loss of acquired immunity is presented around parturition, which results in the so-called "periparturient rise" (PPR) in fecal excretion of GIN eggs. The objective of the present work was to study the dynamic of the PPR and to model the faecal worm egg count (FEC) curve during the periparturient period in Uruguayan Merino sheep. Faecal samples were collected from lambing ewes during 2009 and 2010 parturitions. FEC and infective larvae cultures of each sampling were recorded. A total of 2,121 records from 748 ewes, the progeny of 107 sires, were used in the statistical analysis. FEC data were normalized using two logarithmic transformations: Log FEC = Log e (FEC + 100) and Log FEC_st (Log FEC with the variance standardized within contemporary group). Three functions were compared to shape the PPR curve. Haemonchus spp. was the most prevalent parasite. Log FEC_st was the selected response variable of the model, for its better adjustment to a normal distribution and a more homogeneous residual variance. The fixed regression model with Legendre polynomials was the selected one, based on the selection model criteria (Akaike & Schwarz Bayesian Information Criteria). The highest egg output was observed between two and four weeks post-lambing. In conclusion, the PPR observed in Uruguayan Merino lambing ewes had the maximum egg output matched with the milk production peak.
