The iron and steel industry accounts for 6 % of the global CO2 emissions it is one main hard-to-abate sectors that must be un-locked to reach climate neutrality in coming decades. objective this work assess economics FReSMe (From Residual Steel gases Methanol) process reducing carbon footprint conventional plants based on Blast Furnace route. This reduction achieved by capturing converting part...

The climate control load is the most significant auxiliary loads present in vehicles today. The peak climate control load of an AC system in sedan can be as large as the engine input power. As the attention on vehicle energy economy is rising worldwide, the energy-saving of mobile air conditioning is becoming more and more important. Most mobile AC systems nowadays draw air from outside the veh...

Droplet transport processes that occur in fuel sprays and spray flames were examined using laser velocimetry, phase Doppler interferometry, and laser sheet beam photography. Droplet size and velocity (axial and radial) distributions were obtained in a swirl-stabilized, pressure-atomized kerosene spray under nonburning and burning conditions. The results show that the introduction of swirl to th...

054401-1 Here we will derive the general theory of the beam-breakup instability in recirculating linear accelerators, in which the bunches do not have to be at the same rf phase during each recirculation turn. This is important for the description of energy recovery linacs where bunches are recirculated at a decelerating phase of the rf wave and for other recirculator arrangements where differe...

The global push towards a circular economy (CE) has led to increasing efforts improve resource utilization efficiency, including plastics recycling. However, the presence of additives, especially those that are toxic, complicates recycling in several ways. Without sufficient controls, spread hazardous additives via activities represents significant public health challenge, particularly among de...

Albumin decreases polymer surface affinity for platelets, and prostaglandin (PG) E1 prevents surface-induced platelet activation. PGI2, like PGE1, inhibits platelet function but is unstable in vitro. We evaluated the ability of surface-adsorbed albumin and circulating PGI2 to prevent platelet alterations during simulated extracorporeal circulation. Fresh heparinized human blood (500 ml) was rec...
