Optimizing the number, distribution, and accessibility of Brønsted acid sites in zeolite-based catalysts is of a paramount importance to further improve their catalytic performance. However, it remains challenging to measure real-time changes in reactivity of single zeolite catalyst particles by ensemble-averaging characterization methods. In this work, a detailed 3D single molecule, single tur...

Intervention studies of cotton steaming to reduce biological effects of cotton dust. Previous exposure chamber studies had suggested that steaming cotton could reduce significantly the levels and the biological effects of cotton dust. Therefore an intervention study using a high capacity steamer was designed to test the effectiveness of this process in a single cotton mill. The mill population ...

Abstract Steaming‐assisted conversion route, a new strategy, is first adapted for the synthesis of highly crystallized anatase TiO 2 2D inverse opal (IO) monolayer films, and then to Nb‐doped W‐doped IO films. Pure water, ammonia, or HCl solutions are used as source steaming vapor convert dry films amorphous IO, NbCl 5 /TiO , WCl 6 composite IOs into This strategy renders possible doping metal ...

Slow steaming is an effective operational measure that reduces fuel consumption and thus emissions on board. With the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) regulation coming into force in 2023 from International Maritime Organization (IMO), ships will have to reduce their CO2 even more. The practice of slow important comply with this regulation. In study, real voyage data a general cargo ship was us...

This study investigates the speed-power relationship of ships, and is based on a combined econometric naval architectural data-driven model fed with operational data from more than 50,000 noon reports obtained 88 tankers. It shown that exponent significantly lower 3 at speed intervals below design speed. finding, including itself, affects environmental discussions related to slow steaming, sinc...

This paper aims to illustrate how the combination of Network Analysis and Futures Studies becomes a powerful instrument for envisioning and analyzing futures and social change. The study of three cases shows network analysis becoming an analytical tool in futures studies while, at the same time, acquiring the dimension of change and dynamics steaming from the futurist perspective.

Which side are you on? Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy is used for the first time to elucidate the coordination and distribution of aluminum in industrial-relevant zeolites at the single-particle level. Extended regions of a few hundred nanometers, rich in higher aluminum coordination environments, are heterogeneously embedded within the zeolite particle, before and after a steaming post...

The individualistic effect of unit operations of production, at household level, on some antinutritional factors in selected cowpea-based food products (moin-moin, akara, and gbegiri) was investigated. Four cowpea types (IT93K-452-1, IT95K-499s-35, IT97K-568-18, and market sample) were used for the study, whereas the three traditional food products were produced from each of the cowpea types, r...

StreamTo uses tamper resistant hardware tokens to generate the key stream needed to decrypt encrypted streaming music. The combination of a hardware token and steaming media effectively brings tried and tested PayTV technology to the Internet. We provide a security analysis and present two prototype implementations with a performance assessment, showing that the system is both effective and eff...

Although many web caching techniques have been developed to improve Web performance, existing proxy caching schemes do not support the multimedia data stream well. In this paper, we briefly describe the basic characteristics of steaming media caching and traditional web caching and discuss their dissimilarities. Then, we survey the proxy caching mechanisms for multimedia data streams, and final...
