A System Dynamics Model to Evaluate Emissions in A Combined Cycle Power Plant
Environment and the need to protect and care for it, is one of the main concerns of industrial development in todaychr('39')s society; and air pollution is one of the most noticeable and tangible causes of it. The increasingly growth of the industry has led to the production and diffusion of gaseous pollutants into the air and among them; thermal power plants are one of the most important sourc...

متن کاملFirst Steps towards Underdominant Genetic Transformation of Insect Populations
The idea of introducing genetic modifications into wild populations of insects to stop them from spreading diseases is more than 40 years old. Synthetic disease refractory genes have been successfully generated for mosquito vectors of dengue fever and human malaria. Equally important is the development of population transformation systems to drive and maintain disease refractory genes at high f...
متن کاملInverse Medea as a Novel Gene Drive System for Local Population Replacement: A Theoretical Analysis
One strategy to control mosquito-borne diseases, such as malaria and dengue fever, on a regional scale is to use gene drive systems to spread disease-refractory genes into wild mosquito populations. The development of a synthetic Medea element that has been shown to drive population replacement in laboratory Drosophila populations has provided encouragement for this strategy but has also been g...
