Optimization of Enzymatic saccharification conditions for acid treated bmr sorghum biomass was studied with the inhouse enzyme produced from Aspergillus sp.. Optimization of enzyme loading, substrate concentration, temperature and time yielded a maximum of 416.00 ± 0.55 mg/g sugars with an improved hydrolysis efficiency of 55.97 ± 0.45%. Protein adsorption onto lignocellulosic substance was inv...

In the first, cadmium selenide nanoparticles loaded on activated carbon (CdSe-NP-AC) has been synthesized. Then, this new adsorbent successfully has been applied for the removal of fluoride from aqueous solution in batch studies, while the effect of various experimental parameters like initial pH, contact time and temperature on its removal percentage was examined by one at a time optimization ...

We prove several results about the average-case complexity of problems in the Polynomial Hierarchy (PH). We give a connection among average-case, worst-case, and non-uniform complexity of optimization problems. Specifically, we show that if P is hard in the worst-case then it is either hard on the average (in the sense of Levin) or it is non-uniformly hard (i.e. it does not have small circuits)...

Optimization of the fermentation conditions for chitin deacetylase (CDA) production by Penicillium oxalicum SAEM-51 was undertaken in the present study using central composite design (CCD) under submerged condition. CDA is widely employed for bio-catalytic conversion of chitin to chitosan. Chitosan is a biopolymer with immense commercial potential in diverse industrial sectors, viz. pharmaceuti...

In this paper, a global optimization technique based on the Adaptive Response Surface Method (ARSM) is integrated with a Control Volume Finite Element Method (CVFEM) for thermofluid optimization. The objective of the optimization is to improve the thermal effectiveness of an aircraft de-icing strategy by re-designing the cooling bay surface shape. The design optimization combines the modeling o...

BACKGROUND Optimization of conditions during recombinant protein production for improved yield is a major goal for protein scientists. Typically this is achieved by changing single crucial factor settings one at a time while other factors are kept fixed through trial-and-error experimentation. This approach may introduce larger bias and fail to identify interactions between the factors resultin...

For the general nonlinear processes control problem, the most rigorous approach is to use dynamic optimization. However, as the size of the problem grows, the Dynamic Programming (DP) approach is suffered from the burden of calculation which is called as 'Curse of Dimensionality'. To overcome this problem, a costapproximator can be used to obtain the optimal control input policy minimizing the ...
