  1. 1. Predicting the concentration of residual methanol in industrial formalin using machine learning

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik

    Author : William Heidkamp; [2016]
    Keywords : Machine learning; Predictive modeling; Formalin; MATLAB;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a machine learning approach was used to develop a predictive model for residual methanol concentration in industrial formalin produced at the Akzo Nobel factory in Kristinehamn, Sweden. The MATLABTM computational environment supplemented with the Statistics and Machine LearningTM toolbox from the MathWorks were used to test various machine learning algorithms on the formalin production data from Akzo Nobel.

  4. 4. Electrochemical investigation of "green" film-forming corrosion inhibitors :  

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Author : Hansheng Wang; [2011]
    Keywords : corrosion inhibitor; “green chemistry”; film forming; electrochemical method; inhibition efficiency;

    Abstract : In this work, a comparative electrochemical study has been performed to evaluate corrosion inhibition property of several film-forming corrosion inhibitors provide by Akzo Nobel on carbon steel in a chloride solution. For carbon steel exposed to 1 M NaCl solution with and without added inhibitor, electrochemical measurements including electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), linear polarization resistance (LPR) at different exposure time intervals, and potentiodynamic polarization at the termination of the exposure, have been performed to investigate the film forming process and to evaluate corrosion inhibition efficiency of the inhibitors, as well as its evolution with time.
