Challenges in scaling up biofuels infrastructure.
Rapid growth in demand for lignocellulosic bioenergy will require major changes in supply chain infrastructure. Even with densification and preprocessing, transport volumes by mid-century are likely to exceed the combined capacity of current agricultural and energy supply chains, including grain, petroleum, and coal. Efficient supply chains can be achieved through decentralized conversion proce...
متن کاملChallenges in scaling up a perfusion process
Introduction Perfusion process involves retention of the cells inside the bioreactor while simultaneously removing spent medium and adding fresh medium continuously. The flow rate of addition of fresh and removal of spent medium are generally kept the same (perfusion rate) to maintain the culture volume inside the bioreactor. Cell retention is possible with many devices but the reliability and ...
متن کاملChallenges with up-scaling dry sanitation technologies.
The acceleration of sanitation delivery towards meeting the South African Government's target of completely eradicating the existing backlogs by 2010, has led to a surge of activities. As part of its strategy for ensuring that basic sanitation is provided, the policy has recommended that a ventilated improved pit latrine (VIP) is considered as the basic minimum requirement in the form of a sani...
متن کاملScaling-Up Urban Network Security Games with Graph Contraction
Urban network security games, which model attackers and defenders on road networks, provide a promising framework for planning effective strategies of patrolling and inspection. This paper focuses on improving scalability of the algorithm to solve them, which is one of the important challenges in security game problems. State-of-the-art solvers have been scaled up to handle real-world networks ...
متن کاملScaling up from gardens: biodiversity conservation in urban environments.
As urbanisation increases globally and the natural environment becomes increasingly fragmented, the importance of urban green spaces for biodiversity conservation grows. In many countries, private gardens are a major component of urban green space and can provide considerable biodiversity benefits. Gardens and adjacent habitats form interconnected networks and a landscape ecology framework is n...
