    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Keywords:Quinones compounds, spectroscopic and electrochemical properties, isomeric compounds.  ABSTRACT  Quinones are naturally occurring compounds with specific characteristics that have a great impact on the living cell. The ability to carry electrons makes them an important component of photosynthetic and respiratory electron transfer chain. They are considered as components of biological electron transfer chains located in the membranes of mitochondria, bacteria and chloroplasts. Quinones are useful compounds for preparation of superconducting materials. Quinones are good electron acceptors and are known to be efficient quenchers of singlet state donor fluorescence of various fluorophores. The current data are consistent with an electron transfer mechanism, and the quenching efficiency is dependent on the redox potentials of the corresponding quinone–hydroquinone system. From the perspectives of designing magnetic materials and understanding photo-physical properties, the co-ordination chemistry of quinones is also very important. The quinones also find application as electrode material. In present study, from the reaction of 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone with difunctional thiols were synthesized heterocyclic isomer p-benzoquinone compounds. The synthesized compounds were characterized by fourier transform-infrared, proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance, mass spectroscopic techniques, as well as elemental analysis and ultraviolet–visible spectra. The synthesized isomer compounds were identified by the carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectra.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[A NEW APPROACH TO WATER QUALITY TESTING FOR SUSTAINABLE WATERWAY MONITORING]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Water is a basic requirement for survival of all living beings, and one of the most precious natural resources. Hence, as environmental standards in the world are becoming more demanding, the water quality issues hold a special significance. Potential water usage depends on its quality - the physical, chemical and biological composition and concentration of certain substances in the water. Water quality varies, as well as the criteria used to evaluate it. For Bosnia and Herzegovina, with its abundant water resources, the challenges of preserving surface water quality and the issues of water resources management are becoming increasingly pronounced. In this paper, the overall stream water quality was estimated by the Neretva Water Quality Index (NWQI). The grouping of selected quality parameters, each representing a specific impairment category, allows efficient and precise estimation of the overall quality of water.  This simple and quick method is suitable for routine monitoring of water quality and can be conducted entirely on site. The composite index was calculated as the harmonic mean of analytical values of: water temperature, pH, electrical conductivity, oxygen saturation, nitrogen, total phosphorus, and faecal coliforms. These parameters, crucial for the assessment of water quality have been selected according to the major criteria of stream health, whilst taking into account the hydrological and climatic factors specific to the studied area. Analysis of environmental impacts on  water quality in the Neretva River can serve as the basis for an accentuated need for implementation and management of monitoring programmes aimed at protection and sustainabiliy of waterways. NWQI allows the most impaired variable to make the largest impact on the value of the index, and takes into account the spatial and temporal differences that a variable will exert on the overall water quality.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Keywords:magneto-hydro-dynamic (MHD), electricity, energy sources, applications, power generation.  ABSTRACT  The electricity requirements of the world are increasing at alarming rate and the power demand has been running ahead of supply. It is also now widely recognized that the fossil fuels (i.e., coal, petroleum and natural gas) and other conventional resources, presently being used for generation of electrical energy, may not be either sufficient or suitable to keep pace with ever increasing demand of the electrical energy of the world. Also generation of electrical power by cold based steam power plant or nuclear power plants causes pollution, which is likely to be more acute in future due to large generating capacity on one side and greater awareness of the people in this respect.  The recent severe energy crisis has forced the world to develop new and alternative methods of power generation, which could not be adopted so far due to various reasons. The magneto-hydro-dynamic (MHD) power generation is one of the examples of a new unique method of power generation. The other non-conventional methods of power generation may be such as solar cells, fuel cells, thermo-electric generator, thermionic converter, solar power generation, wind power generation, geo-thermal energy generation, tidal power generation etc.  This paper elucidates about Different Energy sources, why we are going for non-conventional energy sources, Different non-conventional energy sources &amp; comparison between them, about fuel cells and their applications.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Keywords: jujube, micropropagation, thidiazuron, benzylaminopurine, in vitro rooting.  ABSTRACT  Micropropagation is a very important propagation technique for fruit trees based on especially obtaining virus free sapling. In the present study, shoot tips of two selected jujube genotypes (20-Ç-10 and 20-Ç-22) were used as a material. The effects of different growth regulator combinations, carbon sources (sucrose, glucose and fructose) and silver nitrate concentrations on in vitro propagation of jujube were investigated. Shoot formation was observed on the medium containing TDZ alone as a cytokinin, but shoots were very short and unhealthy. In addition that, when the medium supplemented with BAP alone was used, new shoot regeneration from explants was not observed. Therefore, MS medium supplemented with both TDZ and BAP as a cytokinin was used for in vitro micropropagation of jujube genotypes. The highest percentage of explants forming shoots (93.3 %) and the highest number of shoots per explant (5.7) were obtained on the MS medium containing 0.1 mg/l TDZ+0.5 mg/l BAP+0.1 mg/l IBA+0.3 mg/l GA3 in 20-Ç-10 jujube genotype. Different amounts of carbon source and silver nitrate did not increase the percentage of explant forming shoots and the number of shoots per explants in the both genotypes compared to control treatment. The highest rooting percentages of 20-Ç-10 and 20-Ç-22 jujube genotypes (83.3 % and 80.0 %, respectively) were obtained on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/l IBA.]]></dcterms:abstract>

ABSTRACT  Different algorithms for Hurst exponent estimation, namely aggregated variance, absolute moment, Higuchi and Peng method, are applied to eight different vibration signals obtained ininduction motor aging process. Signals were obtained with accelerometers during an artificial fluting, thermal and chemical aging process. Applicability of Hurst exponent analysis for motor age detection is discussed based on estimation results. Drop of the exponent value for degraded states with respect to the original state is detected, while no monotonic relationship between subsequent states is found. The anti-persistent nature of vibrations is confirmed.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[PERFORMANCES OF FLAT-PLATE AND CPC SOLAR COLLECTORS IN UNDERFLOOR HEATING SYSTEMS]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Keywords:Solar energy, Floor Heating, TRNSYS, Cyprus.  ABSTRACT  There is a growing interest in using solar energy in the underfloor heating systems. However, the large areas required for the placing of the solar collectors can be discouraging, especially for the apartment buildings.  The objective of this study is to investigate the possibility of using Compound Parabolic Collector (CPC) collectors to replace Flat-Plat collectors in solar energy underfloor heating systems. By this way, it is aimed to explore the feasibility of area reduction required by the collectors. Secondly, the temperature profiles of the circulating water loops and the concrete slabs are sought to be examined.  The simulations were carried out under the winter weather conditions of the Cyprus. The system consists of solar thermal collectors, a storage tank and circulation of water to carry the heat to 4 floor slabs. The results of the simulations show that, a CPC collector which is commonly used in producing high grade heat can work more effectively with less area occupied in this system. It is observed from this study that the outlet fluid temperature of this collector is between 25 to 95◦C, compared to that of Flat-Plate collectors which is between 25 and 75◦C. The simulations suggest that a 2 m2 CPC collector can perform satisfactorily to match the job of 8 m2 Flat-Plate collectors. The heat that is stored in the tank can supply hot water at a temperature of 60◦C which is reduced to 45◦C after mixing with cold return water before entering the floor slabs. The estimated slab temperature is approximately 24◦C which is compatible with the standards. Fluid which is passing through the slabs will eventually lose its temperature as the heat transfer occurs from the slabs to the environment. Consequently the fluid outlet temperature is observed to be approximately 25◦C.]]></dcterms:abstract>
