One of the important activities in chemical engineering is designing and simulating different processes in order to optimize the unit economically and operationally. Thermodynamic and transmissivity properties of fluid in this process are required to be available carefully. In this article, thermodynamic equations operation in PR, SRK, LKP, UNIQUAC in expecting thermodynamic properties and phase operation of binary system of Dinitrogen monoxide and Propane have been studied in order to select the best equations of state (EOS) for simulation. According to the results it is obvious that equation of state PR in expecting Bubble point ( P ) have mean absolute error equals to 4.98 and mean absolute error in specifying the value of mole fraction of Dinitrogen monoxide in steam phase ( Y1 ) equals to 0.002338 . It is the minimum error among other models. As a result, alternatively PR, UNIQUAC equations are the best and the weakest models for expecting phase operation and simulating binary system of Dinitrogen monoxide and propane (among considered equations).

The present work utilizes density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction of glycine amino acid with graphene. Quantum chemical calculations by DFT provide detailed geometrical parameters, electronic properties and the adsorption energies for the graphene and three different amino acid configurations on the graphene. DFT calculations confirmed the energetic stability of the optimized geometries and revealed that amino acid molecule adsorbed on the graphene through weak van der Waals (vdW) interaction, which means that the adsorption is physisorption process. The results of the theoretical investigations show that the adsorption of the amino acid molecule on the graphene surface results in a decrease the chemical potential (µ). Thus, the reactivity and electrical conductivity increase upon the adsorption process.

In this study, crystallinity was investigated for Low-Density Polyethylene composites of bagasse and sweet potato peel (SPP) compounded with an internal mixer as compared to the pure low-density polyethylene that acted as the control sample. This investigation was carried out for total filler content of 30% by weight of the composites for three types of composites being; bagasse-filled, SPP-filled and hybrid composites of Low-Density Polyethylene filled with both bagasse and SPP. XRD analysis showed a decrease in the degree of crystallinity of the composites as compared to the pure Low-Density Polyethylene. This is a general trend with composites where the introduction of fillers brings about a reduction in the crystallinity of polymer materials. The bagasse composite, sweet potato peel composite and the hybrid composites had degrees of crystallinity of 33.25%, 33.15% and 34.15% respectively, as against that of the pure LDPE which was 36.41%.

In this research, the adsorption behavior of pristine, Si- and Al- and Ga-doped boron nitride nano sheet are investigated toward mephentermine using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Total energies, geometry optimizations were obtained and density of state (DOS) analysis was performed at B3LYP level of theory with the 6-31G* basis set. The adsorption energy (Ead) between mephentermine and the pristine, Si- and Al- and Ga doped BNN is changed in the following order: Ga-Complex-N> Al-Complex-N>Si-Complex-N>complex-N. The Ead of the BNN-mephentermine complex is -2.09 kcal/mol, which is low and shows that the adsorption is weak physicaly. The Ead of the Al-doped BNN-mephentermine complex is -34.06 kcal/mol, ΔEg = -1.37%, indicating a low sensitivity of the Al-doped boron nitride nanosheet to the adsorption of mephentermine and is not suitable for sensing. As mentioned, due to the adsorption energy of −34.06 kcal/mol and the rather long recovery time, a strong interaction is not suitable for a sensor. A system with high adsorption energy can be a sensor at high temperatures, because at high temperatures the recovery time is reduced. The Ead of the Ga-doped BNN-mephentermine complex is -46.46 kcal/mol, ΔEg = -6.39%, indicating a low sensitivity of the Ga-doped boron nitride nanosheet to the adsorption of mephentermine. the adsorption energy of -46.46 kcal/mol is not suitable and indicates a long recovery time, As a result, it helps to decompose this compound and remove this compound.

The geometry, electronic structure, and catalytic properties of Al12N12 and Al12P12 nano-cages are investigated by density functional theory calculations. The results express that toxic gas SCN−adsorption upon the Al atom of Al12N12 is stronger than that of isolated Al12P12 nano-cage. The adsorption value is about −189.67 kJ mol−1, which is reason via the chemisorptions of SCN anion. The binding energies of SCN− from its N head adsorbed on the Si and Ge Al11N12 nano-cages are computed to be -439.69 and -397.53 kJ mol−1 . The computed density of states (DOS) indicates that a notable orbital hybridization take place between adsorption of SCN- upon the Al12P12 and Al12N12 nano-cage in adsorption process. The Eg in Al12P12 and Al12N12 nano-cages are significantly reduced to 4.03 and 3.17 eV, respectively. The SCN− adsorbed towards the Si and Ge-doped Al11N12 nano-cages reveal that the Eg values are obviously increased to 2.33 and 2.97 eV, respectively, during the adsorption processes. . the largest charges transferred from 0.61 and 0.63 electrons take place for the adsorption of SCN− on the Si and Ge-doped Al11N12 nano-cages, respectively. Finally, the Al12N12 nano-cage can be used to design as useful sensor for nanodevice applications. Hence, we concluded that the Si-doped Al11 N12 nano-cage can be served as a reliable material for SCN− adsorption.
