Based on the results of this study, it is evident that the retting process adversely affects the physicochemical properties of water and therefore water treatment is necessary before the water is being discharged downstream into ponds, lakes and rivers.
Crushing is a form of pre-treatment prior to the retting process which can be carried out either manually or by mechanical means.
Manual crushing involves the use of hammers whereas mechanical crushing involves the use of decorticators in order to crack the bark of the plant, which will provide pathways for microbes to accelerate the retting process [12].
Since most retting processes in the agriculture industry are not equipped with retting wastewater treatment systems, it is therefore crucial to examine the effect of pre-treatment on the physicochemical properties of retting water.

There are also other factors that affect the welding process.
This tool measures the profile of the surface to be filled and can be useful to verify the quality of a mechanical part.
Finally, the profiles have been normalised in both x and z dimensions so that the comparison field is not affected by the position of the profile in the measurement space of the profilometer , as shown in Fig. 5c.
By using AI techniques to classify different types of layer profile and predict their properties, the algorithm could potentially improve the efficiency and precision of the DED process.

In the first phase, the main properties of the bridge were designed by using conventional methods of civil engineering.
However, in the real environment a multiplicity of factors affect the system.
It is not possible to foresee all the factors that can have an effect.
Safety as such cannot be used as an input parameter as it depends on numerous factors.
It is mainly economic and structural factors that are input into the optimization.

This is due to the poor cold forming properties due to the strong textures that develop during thermomechanical treatment.
Both parameters affect directly the position in which the solidification takes place.

Abstract.
Appropriate formula and treatment process are required in the application process, otherwise, it will affect the surface's treatment effect, resulting in the stripping of coating.
As the overall impeller has no damage, only some areas have cavitation perforation and the surface has rust and abrasion, in addition to the factors of time and cost, the composite repair of repair welding method and polymer coating method is adopted.
During the overlaying process, only when the temperature of the front end's welding line and the heat affected zone drops below 50℃ can the welding of each period begin.
After all the above work has been completed, it can be put into use when the material is completely cured. 2-4 hours after the natural curing of metal repair materials, they could be heated (light, hot air, fire roast) to about 100 ℃ and maintained for 24 hours if time permits, in order to improve its mechanical properties.

Introduction
Nickel-based single crystal (SC) superalloys have been widely used for turbine blades in hot sections of aero-jet engines due to their superior mechanical behavior at high temperature.
Taking all these factors into consideration, malfunctions occur easily in the rabbet.
The movement of dislocations is strongly affected by the direction of applied load[7].
The mechanical properties and constitutive model of nickel-based single crystal superalloys have been extensively studied, and the elastic-plastic model based on phenomenology and crystallographic plastic theory has been proposed.
The crystallographic slip theory is mostly used, for its preferable description of mechanical properties of single crystal superalloys[10].

Bio-based (such as bamboo particles) and earth materials have shown interesting potential for improving some thermal properties of covering mortars.
In addition, it is important to provide significant improvements in the thermal performance of the building depending on its physical properties (PBMC, 2018).
For this, we use the GWPbio factor (using a 100-year time horizon) developed by Guest et al. (2012).
A GWPbio factor of 0.98 is found by Guest et al. (2012).
· The number of replacements of mortars severely affects the final results.

Introduction
Generally, polyethersulfone (PES) is one of the polymeric materials, which has high mechanical, thermal and chemical resistances, easy processing and environmental endurance.
However, its poor antifouling properties affect its application and usage life [1-2].
Titanium dioxide (TiO2) has been focus of numerous studies in recent years due to its photocatalytic and superhydrophilicity effects, stable chemical property, innocuity and low cost.
This is due to the hydrophilicity and photocatalytic properties of TiO2 nanoparticles radiated on membrane surface by UV light.
This is due to presence of OH bonds in the membrane structure is the main factor for arrangement TiO2 nanoparticles on the membrane surface.

The physical properties of ZnO:Al films deposited by sputtering were affected from the sputtering parameters, such as sputtering power, argon gas pressure, substrate temperature, and target-substrate distance [13-19], However, to the best of our knowledge, there have been no reports on the effect of substrate temperature on the properties of sputtered Al2O3 and ZrO2 co-doped ZnO thin films.
