Identification of the catalyst characteristics correlating with key performance parameters including selectivity and stability is to rational design. Herein we focused on identification property-performance relationships in methanol-to-olefin (MTO) process by studying detail catalytic behaviour MFI, MEL their respective intergrowth zeolites. The detailed material characterization reveals that b...

This paper describes the development of a process simulation model and integration of the genetic algorithms (GA) with the model as optimisation techniques using a case study of lot sizing problem (LSP) in make-to-order (MTO) supply chain solved by a combined simulation and genetic algorithm (GA) optimisation model. The simulation model is performed using ARENA software. GA model is implemented...

In this study a new method by Application of graphene oxide Nano sheets– Melamine –TioOxalic acid composite was exhibited as adsorbent for the elimination of toxic mercury (II) ions from aqueous solutions. The combine has the authority to adsorb the organic and inorganic combines. Through the immobilization of Melamine-TioOxalic acid (MTO) onto graphene oxide nanosheets, the desired composite w...

We develop a framework for determining whether the production process should be designed as make-to-stock (MTS) and/or make-to-order (MTO), given the firm’s assessment of market preferences for standard product designs and custom product designs and the firm’s production capabilities in terms of efficient versus flexible production. These process and product design decisions can in turn impact ...

The catalytic activity of large zeolite H-ZSM-5 crystals in methanol (MTO) and ethanol-to-olefins (ETO) conversions was investigated and, using operando UV/Vis measurements, the catalytic activity and deactivation was correlated with the formation of coke. These findings were related to in situ single crystal UV/Vis and confocal fluorescence micro-spectroscopy, allowing the observation of the s...

A key requirement for the make-to-order (MTO) manufacturing companies to remain competitive is the ability to assess incoming orders in terms of performance and to determine the best orders that they should accept. In this paper, we propose a method to control the entire production process, from customer enquiry up to product delivery, for the MTO manufacturing systems. In practice, decisions o...

Is Crime Contagious? Understanding whether criminal behavior is “contagious” is important for law enforcement and for policies that affect how people are sorted across social settings. We test the hypothesis that criminal behavior is contagious by using data from the Moving to Opportunity (MTO) randomized housing-mobility experiment to examine the extent to which lower localarea crime rates dec...

Capacity control implementations in make-to-order (MTO) revenue management typically are based on bid-prices, which are used to approximate the opportunity cost of accepting a customer request. However, in the face of stochastic demand, this approximation becomes less accurate and the performance of bid-prices may deteriorate. To address this problem, we examine the informational dynamics inher...

Metomidate [(R)-1-(1-phenylethyl)-1H-imidazole-5-carboxylic acid methyl ester] (MTO, 1, Fig. 1) is a potent and selective inhibitor of the cytochrome P-450 enzyme system in the adrenal cortex. Labelled in the 4-position with radioiodine, (R)-4-[I]iodometomidate, 2, [I]IMTO has been evaluated by in-vitro studies and also ex-vivo in rats. [I]IMTO was synthesized by oxidative radioiododestannylati...
