چکیده

becoming the standard in the life sciences industry rather than the exception. Most facilities are designed to serve more than one purpose. While housing a manufacturing area may be a building’s most important function, it may include a group of labs or warehousing space. These multi-purpose facilities create an interesting challenge. This article examines these challenges and potential solutions. As an example, consider a facility with process and packaging lines, offices, a warehouse, some common spaces, and a cafeteria. The owner’s challenge is to simultaneously manufacture the product, access and store the data, provide a comfortable environment, and comply with GxP regulations. In theory, a single system can be used to accomplish these goals. Otherwise, the building management system (BMS) and the process control system (PCS) must be integrated. We will discuss the single-system scenario as well as five schemes for integrating BMS and PCS systems. SINGLE SYSTEM

Simultaneous Control of Active and Reactive Powers of Vanadium Redox Flow Battery Systems in Flexible Microgrids

This paper discusses the control of flexible microgrids, consisting of a Redox Flow Batteries (RFB) and a new power conditioning system (PCS) for the RFB. Considering the importance of energy storage, this study is essential in power systems that are developed cautiously. RFB is connected to power system by a DC/DC or DC/AC converter to produce a DC voltage. It is very important that this conve...

Evaluation of the effectiveness of crocin isolated from saffron in treatment of burning mouth syndrome: A randomized controlled trial

Objective: Burning mouth syndrome (BMS) is a debilitating disorder with few limited treatment modalities. Because of the proven association between BMS symptoms, and depression and anxiety, treatment modalities that alleviate the two latter etiologic factors can be clinically effective. Thus, owing to the antidepressant and potential analgesic effects of crocin (as an active co...
