Technological Challenges in Thermal Plasma Production

Technological trends, global market, and challenges of bio-ethanol production.

Ethanol use as a fuel additive or directly as a fuel source has grown in popularity due to governmental regulations and in some cases economic incentives based on environmental concerns as well as a desire to reduce oil dependency. As a consequence, several countries are interested in developing their internal market for use of this biofuel. Currently, almost all bio-ethanol is produced from gr...

Livestock production system management responses to thermal challenges.

The adaptive capabilities of animals and livestock production systems have been emphasized in this report. Biometeorology has a key role in rational management to meet the challenges of thermal environments. While the focus is primarily on cattle in warm or hot climates, the importance of dynamic animal responses to environmental challenges applies to all species and climates. Methods used to m...

Technological Challenges for Transparent Conductors

Transparent conductors (TCs) have a variety of properties that can limit their performance in various applications. These properties include their optical and electronic behavior: optical transparency, electrical conductivity, plasma wavelength, ultraviolet absorption edge, work function, conductivity type; factors affecting device fabrication: synthesis temperature, thermal stability, resistan...

Managing Change in Information Systems: Technological Challenges

Information systems and other computer-based systems must continuously undergo change in order to reflect change in their environments. The present technology used to implement such systems, including models, methods, tools and languages, does not have an inherent understanding of the nature of evolution. The rigidity of existing systems is a hindrance for user requested enhancements. Propagati...
