Item Application of artificial neural network and kinetic modeling for the prediction of biogas and methane production in anaerobic digestion of several organic wastes(Taylor & Francis, 2021) Mougari, Nour El Islam; Largeau, J. F.; Himrane, N.; Hachemi, M.; Tazerout, M.In the current study, artificial neural network (ANN) and modified Gompertz equation (MG) were applied to develop integrated based models for the prediction of cumulative biogas and methane yield (CBY and CMY) from anaerobic digestion (AD) of several organic wastes. Volatile solid to total solid ratio (VS/TS), carbon content (C), carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (C/N) and digestion time (DT) were selected as input features for the implementation of ANN approach. Genetic algorithm (GA) was employed in order to optimize the ANN architecture as well as the kinetic parameters of the MG to provide reliable and fast learning for better prediction performance. To evaluate model performances, determination coefficient (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE) were used. Both the approaches performed well in predicting CBY and CMY and showed a good agreement with the experimental data. However, GA-ANN models exhibit smaller deviation and higher predictive accuracy with satisfactory RMSE and R2 of about 0.0045 and 0.9996 for CBY, and 0.0046 and 0.9998 for CMY, compared with GA-MG models. This evinces the effectiveness of the developed approach to forecast CBY and CMY and can be an effective tool for the scale up of anaerobic digestion units and technico-economic studiesItem Truck tire pyrolysis optimization using the self-produced carbon black as a catalyst(2017) Akkouche, N.; Balistrou, Mourad; Hachemi, M.; Himrane, N.; Loubar, K.; Tazerout, M.Item Hydrogen supplemented natural gas effect on a DI diesel engine operating under dual fuel mode with a biodiesel pilot fuel(Elsevier, 2017) Tarabet, L.; Lounici, M.

As a result, intensive researches are undertaken to find appropriate substitution to fossil fuels. We focus in this study on the investigation of using eucalyptus biodiesel as fuel in diesel engine. A single cylinder air-cooled, DI diesel engine, was used to test eucalyptus biodiesel and its blends with diesel fuel in various ratios at several engine loads. Performance and exhaust emissions are evaluated for different operating conditions. Results show that neat eucalyptus biodiesel and its blends present significant reduction of exhaust emissions especially at high loads with equivalent performances to those of diesel fuelItem Numerical investigation on di diesel engine running with eucalyptus biodiesel and its blends(2012) Tarabet, L.; Loubar, K.; Lounici, Mohand Said; Hanchi, S.; Tazerout, M.Item Experimental investigation of DI diesel engine operating with eucalyptus biodiesel/natural gas under dual fuel mode(Elsevier, 2014) Tarabet, L.; Loubar, K.; Lounici, M.S.; Khiari, K.; Belmrabet, T.; Tazerout, M.Item Study of reconditioning of the Eucalyptus camaldulensis dehn(2010) Tazerout, M.; Abadlia, Mohamed Tahar; Oudia, A.
