Optimal Scheduling of Biodiesel Plants through Property-based Integration with Oil Refineries
(2011 , Book)
This paper addresses the design and scheduling problem of biodiesel plants in conjunction with typical oil refineries via blending of biodiesel and petro-diesel. The feedstocks are often seasonal and their availability and ...
Preparation and Preliminary Dielectric Characterization of Structured C-Thiol-Ene Polymer Nanocomposites Assembled Using the Thiol-Ene Click Reaction.
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)
, 2015 , Article)
Fullerene-containing materials have the ability to store and release electrical energy. Therefore, fullerenes may ultimately find use in high-voltage equipment devices or as super capacitors for high electric energy storage ...
Long Sun-Exposures Influencing High Sub-Cutaneous Synthesis of Vitamin-D3 may be Associated with Exacerbation of Symptoms in Allergic-Asthma.
(2018 , Article)
Does excessive sun-exposure, non-use of sunscreen and/or high doses of vitamin-D3 supplements provoke exacerbation of asthma? Clinical examinations, retrospective records-access and questionnaire surveys were distributed ...
