"Currently, different technologies are being employed to remove CO2 and H2S from the natural gas. Based on chemical phenomenon, the absorption using alkanolamines is probably the most extended process for the acid gas re...

"Current emergency injectors of glucagon require manual reconstitution, which involves several steps that may lead to dosage errors. Rapid reconstitution packages (RRPs) are new devices, designed using computational flu...

A SEE (Satellite Energy Exchange) mission is designed to make extremely accurate measurements on fundamental gravitation by observing the orbital perturbation of unconstrained orbiting test bodies in a femto-g to atto-g ...

The effects of drying air inlet temperature (IT) and concentration of Aerosil® 200 (CA) on several properties of spray-dried Apeiba tibourbou extracts were investigated following a 32 full factorial design. Powder recov...

In order to increase the flexibility of renewable energies and improve their integration into existing energy grids, efficient intermediate storage is necessary. High-purity hydrogen produced in a water electrolysis cell...

The main objective of the study is to present a comprehensive and, above all, updated overview of the hydrogen demand and supply situation. The physical and chemical properties of hydrogen are presented, together with an...

The resolution of optimization problems is of great interest nowadays and has encouraged the development of various information technology methods to attempt solving them. There are several problems related to Software E...

"The transportation sector has become one of the most important sources of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions and energy consumption in the world, and such emissions have impact in the global warming. For that reason, gove...

"In future, there will be an increasing demand for waste heat recovery systems (WHRS). So far current technologies are not expected to fulfill the requirement expected for a broad deployment. Thermoelectric generators (T...

"The Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB) Breeding Blanket (BB) is one of the 4 BB concepts being investigated in the EU for their possible implementation in a demonstration nuclear fusion reactor (DEMO). The choice of He a...

With a conventional lens sharpness of the image is always limited by the wavelength of light. An unconventional alternative to a lens, a slab of negative refractive index material, has the power to focus all Fourier comp...

What makes us modern? This is a classic question in philosophy as well as in political science. However it is often raised without including science and technology in its definition. The argument of this book is that we ...
