The combustion characteristics, ignition delay, p-t, dp/dt, Q-t of diesel oil and fish oil blended diesel oils was investigated according to pressure and temperature in a constant volume combustion bomb. The results are as follows: 1) The influence of temperature and pressure on the ignition delay was almost constant in high temperature, regardless of the blending rates, and the ignition delay was shortest in the 60% blend. 2) The maximum pressure was high in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend. 3) The rate of pressure rise was high in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend. The rate of maximum pressure rise was significantly higher with pure diesel oil than with two blends. 4) The amount of accumulative heat release was large in order of with pure diesel oil, with the 20% blend and the 60% blend.

The purpose of this study was to establish an assessment method for the estimation of the pollution risk by oil spill accidents. Various oil spill patterns were calculated based on past accidents in the study area and these results were analyzed statistically. Then the risk probability, the oil arrival time, risk range, and so on were calculated. These calculations were performed for sub area sectors, fisheries and aquaculture farms, based on information about environmentally sensitive resources. Finally, the risk to each sub area sector was assessed by comparing the calculated results. These consequences indicated the objective and general risks of oil spill accidents and the result of this method will be made more appropriate by integrating real time risk predictions.

The experiment was conducted to investigate the feasibility of using vegetable oil and non-fat dry milk (powdered milk) with skim milk for the preparation of dahi. In this experiment, six different types of dahi were prepared from whole milk, skim milk and admixture of non-fat dry milk with different levels of vegetable oil. The prepared dahi samples were subjected to physical, chemical and microbiological analysis to evaluate their quality. It was observed that the addition of non-fat dry milk and vegetable oil with skim milk improve the physical qualities (smell and taste, body and consistency, color and texture) of prepared dahi samples. Addition of non-fat dry milk and vegetable oil also improve the total solids, fat and protein content of dahi samples. It is concluded that the addition of vegetable oil at a rate of 4 to 6% together with 5% non-fat dry milk gave the best result.

Dibenzothiophene, crude oil and bunker C oil were used in the microbial desulfurization experiments using thermophilic and mesophilic strains of Desulfovibrio and Desulfotomaculum. Mesophilic Desulforvibrio desulfuricans M6 showed the degrees of sulfur removal about 42% and 17% from dibenzothiophene and crude oil, respectively. Thermophilic Desulfovibrio thermophilus showed the degrees of sulfur removal about 68% and 33% from dibenzothiophene and bunker C oil. The strains of Desulfotomaculum were much less efficient than strains of Desulfovibrio. The latter have more complex and stronger gydrogen metabolism. These results showed that desulfurization is closely related to the hydrogen metabolism of the sulfate reducing bacteria.

Straight vegetable oil (SVO) is widely recommended as fuel for diesel engines in general and especially for marine diesel engines. However, SVOs used directly as fuel for diesel engines may cause problems for the engines; SVOs blended with diesel oil are a better choice. To widen understanding of the possibility of using blended SVOs as fuel alternatives, this paper presents results of experimental research on the combustion of blended straight vegetable oil in a marine diesel engine's cylinders. Results show that the fuel combustion process have the same curves as in simulations and, in the case of using blended fuels with up to 20% palm oil, the test diesel engine technical parameters such as engine output, exhaust gas temperatures, and specific fuel consumption are very similar to those of diesel oil (DO). Based on these results, marine diesel engines are strong potential applications and particularly recommended for the use of SVO blends.

In order to investigate the effects of microstructure Oil film on the welding spatter in Zn electroplated steel, Zn electroplated surface and layer structure with USS-Paddition was observed using XRD, XPS and optical microscopy. Wettability of water drop on the Zn electroplated steel surface was measured using Z.Mei model. Oil absorption test was carried out using Oil pen. Morphology of spot welding and spatter with USS-P addition, applied current, and oil-spray or oil-without was observed using SEM and optical microscopy. Surface morphology of Zn electroplated steel showed finer structure as USS-P content increased. Wettabiliy on the Zn electroplated surface decreased with increasing USS-P content. Size of welding trace increased and spatter occured arround the welding part as applied current increased, whereas spatter disappeared as USS-P content increased and disappeared in case of oil spraying on the Zn electroplated surface.

The essential oil (EC-oil) obtained from the buds of Eugenia caryophyllata (Myrtaceae) was examined for its free radical-scavenging activity, cytotoxicity, and in vivo toxicity. To find the xenobiotic properties of EC-oil, serum thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) level and hepatic drug-metabolizing enzyme activities were measured. It was found that EC-oil displayed xenobiotic properties like bromobenzene. The cytotoxicities of eugenol and of the EC-oil were greatly attenuated by the sulfhydryl-containing N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), suggesting that eugenol was susceptible to nucleophilic sulfhydryl. In addition, eugenol also showed potent free radical-scavenging activity in the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay. Moreover, methyleugenol considerably exhibited less cytotoxicity and less potent free radical-scavenging activity than eugenol, and the cell viability of the methyleugenol was more increased with NAC treatment than the eugenol. These results indicate that the phenolic OH in eugenol may play a crucial role in both cytotoxicity and free radical-scavenging activity. The fashion on oxidative stress and hepatic drug-metabolizing enzyme activities of eugenol resembled those of bromobenznene.

We have evaluated the combined antifungal effects of the essential oil from Eucalyptus globulus or its main component 1,8-cineole with ketoconazole. Checkerboard microtiter tests were used to analyze their effects against three Candida and six Trichophyton species. The susceptibility of the Trichophyton species to E. globulus essential oil differed distinctly. The fractional inhibitory concentration indices (FICIs) against the tested Candida species ranged between 0.09 and 0.38 for ketoconazole combined with E. globulus essential oil or 1,8-cineole, indicating significant synergism between ketoconazole and the oil samples. Similar experiments using Trichophyton species resulted in FICIs between 0.28 and 0.63, indicating relatively weaker combined effects than those observed with Candida species. Thus, the data reported here show that the anti-Candida effects of ketoconazole can be significantly improved in the presence of E. globulus essential oil or 1, 8-cineole.

For the study of chemical and mechanical properties of the synthetic and mineral oil added with two different Zn-DTPs, base and formulated oils were analyzed and compared. Kinematic viscosity and total acid number (TAN) were tested at high temperature for formulated oils. Also the oils added with different alkyl groups of Zn-DTP were tested for thermal stability and TAN changes. The 4-ball machine was used to test for the mechanical properties, such as the coefficient of friction and wear. The worn areas after sliding test were analyzed with microscope and EDX, too. From the study, mineral and synthetic oil have different effects according to the various added ratio of the primary and secondary alkyl groups of Zn-DTP. Also the temperature of test oil affected the anti-wear and friction property of the formulated oils. For synthetic oil, the primery alkyl group of Zn-DTP made better friction properties than that of secondary, while, for mineral oil, secondary alkyt group was better only at low temperature for mineral oil.

A gas chromatographic oil fingerprinting method is a technique used for comparative source identification of spilled oil. The hydrocarbon and sulfur compound analysis by gas chromatography are generally used for analyzing oils. However, due to the complexity of oils, another technique is also needed for comparative identification. In this study, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons contained in crude oil and heavy fuel oil are analyzed by gas chromatography. They are relatively unaffected by weathering condition because they are stable. The oil fingerprinting of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by GC seems to be a reliable technique for analyzing oils in identification of sources and kinds of oils.
