Concerns about greenhouse gas emissions have increased research efforts into alternatives in bio-based processes. With regard to transport fuel, bioethanol and biodiesel are still the main biofuels used. It is expected that future production of these biofuels will be based on processes using either non-food competing biomasses, or characterised by low CO₂ emissions. Many microorganisms, such as...

spray drying is one of the most important processes applied in the industry. the equipment used in this process evaporates water in a very short time and so, need a lot of energy. in this work, we used microsoft excel as an analysis tool for the optimization of fuel usage in this dryer. we have described the process in terms of thermodynamic calculations and mass and heat balance equations. our...

Companies and firms, nowadays, due to mounting competition and product diversity, seek to apply virtual cellular manufacturing systems to reduce production costs and improve quality of the products. In addition, as a result of rapid advancement of technology and the reduction of product life cycle, production systems have turned towards dynamic production environments. Dynamic cellular manufact...

By applying the latest developments occurring in photogrammetry to the map production systems, important reductions in map production costs are obtained. For instance, by starting to use digital cameras and GPS/IMU systems in taking aerial photographs and in aerial triangulation, there is an opportunity of reducing the number of ground control points that must be established due to map producti...

Although carp is still widely sold and used in its fresh form, a range of value additions may also be observed. It is essential to know the development and management of a carp farm production costs and their evolution. In Iran, warm-water fish farming is based on common, silver, grass, and bighead carps. The carp is easy to rise in hatcheries in very large numbers at little cost, and is distri...

This paper presents a system which detects and corrects morpho-syntactic errors in Dutch texts. It includes a spelling corrector and a shift-reduce parser for Augmented Context-free Grammars. The spelling corrector is based on trigram and triphone analysis. The parser is an extension of the well-known Tomita algorithm (Tomita, 1986). The parser interacts with the spelling corrector and handles ...
