In this paper, modeling and optimization of Fischer-Tropsch Synthesis is considered in a fixed-bed catalytic reactor using an industrial Fe-Cu-K catalyst. A one dimensional pseudo-homogenous plug flow model without axial dispersion is developed for converting syngas to heavy hydrocarbons. The effects of temperature, pressure, H2 to CO ratio in feed stream, and CO molar flow on the mass flow r...

Abstract Researchers are increasingly encouraged to co-produce research, involving members of the public, service users, policy makers and practitioners in more equal relationships throughout a research project. The sharing power is often highlighted as key principle when co-producing research. However, health social care with many other academic disciplines, carried out within embedded hierarc...

a r t i c l e i n f o Innovation is a key source of knowledge-based competitive advantage. However, research on how firms' co-production enhances innovation is scarce. Thus, this study not only integrates the three dimensions of social capital and examines these dimensions' separate effects on co-production but also incorporates the roles of absorptive capacity and self-efficacy, analyzing thei...

The “woolliness” and “methodological hurdles” of co-production make it challenging to compare contrast different policy initiatives their outcomes, distil “what works”, for whom in what circumstances. Inspired by Nabatchi et al. (2017) 3Ws typology the Who, When, What co-production, we draw on theory deriving from a narrative literature review empirical research cases Scotland Australia. We pro...

Recent years have seen an increase in the use of lignocellulosic materials development bioproduct, biorefinery technologies focused on process integration for production different valuable coproducts order to reduce overall processing cost. In this study, agricultural wastes from rice straw were used co-production bioethanol and xylitol. Where is produced cellulosic fraction xylitol hemicellulo...

background and objective: production of polyhydroxyalkanoate copolyesters consisting of 3-hydroxybutyrate and 3-hydroxyvalerate units was for the first time studied using the production strain hydrogenophaga pseudoflava based on sustainable raw materials. this strategy provides for increased cost efficiency in pha production and in enhanced material quality. material and methods: as a particula...

Background: ‘Co-production’ is one of the key concepts in evidence-informed policy and practice – terms both its theoretical importance practical applications − being consistently discussed as most effective strategy for mobilising evidence contexts. The concept co-production was developed (almost) independently across multiple disciplines has been employed various fields including environment,...

The primary objective of this research is to examine the contributions of co-operatives on rural household agricultural productivity. Multistage sampling was employed in the random selection of 120 co-operators and non-cooperators respectively. But only 115 co-operators and non-cooperators were utilized for the study. The active mean age of 42 years and married female rural households with seco...
