Cellulose nanocomposites were synthesized and applied to the removal of Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The synthesized nanocomposite was characterized by FT-IR, XRD, SEM, TEM, and BET analyses. Removal experiments were carried out in laboratory scale and then evaluated by response surface methodology (RSM) with a Central-Composite Design. The effects of solution pH, contact tie, initial Pb(II) concentration, adsorbent dosage and temperature on the removal efficiency were evaluated. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was employed to find which parameter has a significant effect on the removal efficiency. The best removal efficiency value was found to be at the initial solution pH of 6.5, temperature of 34°C, initial ion concentration of 100 mg/L and the adsorbent dosage of 0.74 g/L. At this condition, the removal efficiency of Pb(II) ions was 92.54%. The adsorption equilibrium data fitted well with Langmuir isotherm model and the adsorption process followed the pseudo-second-order and intra-particle diffusion kinetic model. Thermodynamic analysis suggests that the adsorption process is endothermic, with an increasing entropy and spontaneous in nature. Besides, the nanocomposite was reused in four successive adsorption – desorption cycles, revealing a good regeneration capacity of the adsorbent. The effects of coexist cation ions on the adsorption of Pb(II) under optimal condition was also investigated. All the results demonstrate that nanocomposite is a potential recyclable adsorbent for hazardous metal ions in wastewater system.

Most of the spaces in contemporary houses in Iran cannot achieve enough daylight during daytime. Daylight utilization has a significant impact on decreasing energy consumption in residential buildings. Residents are deprived of natural daylight when there is no attention to the design based on daylight. Iranian traditional architects use practical and straightforward methods in constructing courtyards houses to provide comfort conditions in unique rooms in courtyard houses in terms of daylight quality. In this research, the daylight quality of five separate rooms around the courtyard of Yazdanpanah's house was investigated through an experimental method. Average work plane illuminance and uniformity ratio were calculated in these rooms of the house in Kerman city, located in Iran's hot and dry climate. Findings of this research demonstrated that all rooms surrounding the courtyard of traditional houses have the ability to achieve work plane illuminance of more than acceptable value. Among all rooms around the central courtyard, one room facing the south direction achieves more than 500 Lux work plane illuminance. The amount of uniformity in this room is acceptable with more than 0.5 on most of the days in a year. The findings of this research could be used to design more comfortable rooms in contemporary houses in terms of daylight quality by creating central courtyards. doi: 10.5829/ijee.2022.13.04.01

Eventually, based on the analysis of outputs, according to fixed area, it is more suitable to replace windows with the height of 1.5 to 1.74 meters instead of windows with the height of 1 or 1.2 meters. A window should be replaced with 2, 3, 4 or 5 windows with the same fixed area. I is desired to superseded triple-glazed glazing with low-emissivity filled with argon gas with clear double-glazed glazing filled with air to reduce energy consumption. The amount of heat losses for the window height of 1 to 1.5m, from one window to five windows and for the clear double-glazed glazing filled with air were 2.04%, 11.11%,. and 45.36%, respectively.

using possible. Photovoltaic is one of the most alternatives. are used to supply electricity for pumping systems to irrigate the farmlands. It has been proved by many scholars that PV cell temperature is a crucial factor in cell’s efficiency. In this study, a novel arrangement of a PV/pumping system has been considered, in order to enhance the pumping performance. To make it feasible, a small part of the pumped water is directed to a box-type passage at the backside of the PV module, and then connect to the water pipe and drain to the farmland. Two various flow rates of 5 and 10 L/min were tested. The results showed two proposed cases have a bit difference in their outputs. Accordingly, the temperature of modified cases did not pass beyond 36°C while, the temperature of the conventional module reaches to 72°C. This temperature reduction leads to about 50% higher electrical efficiency. From the output power point of view, more than 45% increase was observed. Also, an environment evaluation is performed and it was found that the present improvement can reduce emission of 34.57 tons CO 2 , annually.

Today, most industries use statistical quality control tools to improve quality and reduce the defective products and waste, but the high volume of data requires the help of a powerful tool to control processes. One of the objectives of the present study is to predict defective products and prevent their production using data mining tools due to the high power in data analysis and its predictive nature, which is less used in the industry. In this study, the statistical population of all parts produced in 2017 by Shabrun Company. The statistical sample is 2400 pieces of radiators that were randomly selected from the production line. In the operational phases of data mining, three decision tree algorithms were used: C&R Tree, Quest Tree and Chaid Tree. Using these algorithms, the most important criteria affecting quality control and rules leading to the quality of parts were determined. Comparative results showed that despite the validity of all three algorithms, the C&R Tree algorithm had the highest accuracy. Adherence to the rules resulting from the implementation of these algorithms has led to the detection and prevention of waste generation, which has increased efficiency and prevented the loss of time and cost in this production unit.
