In the present study, non-catalytic supercritical methanol (SCM) reaction was utilized to produce biodiesel from palm oil. The effects of free fatty acids and water content on the yield of biodiesel were investigated and subsequently compared with conventional catalytic reaction. In addition, the feasibility of utilizing co-solvents to reduce the operating conditions needed in SCM was carried o...

The NHS Knowledge and Skills Framework (KSF) has been a driving force in the move to competence-based workforce development in the NHS. Skills for Health has developed national workforce competences that aim to improve behavioural performance, and in turn increase productivity. This article describes five projects established to test Skills for Health national workforce competences, electronic ...

Plant-based food (PBF) is on the rise as an alternative for animal-based food. Europe leading in market size compared with global market. However, high failure rate new products challenging success of PBF This paper aims to unravel key factors (KSFs) from existing brands, contributing knowledge how achieve Two subsequent studies employing online surveys were included, which targeted expert part...

ABSTRACT Equations of fully general relativistic radiation hydrodynamics around a rotating black hole are derived by using the Kerr-Schild coordinate where there is no coordinate singularity at the event horizon. Since the radiation interacts with matter moving with relativistic velocities near the event horizon, the interplay between the radiation and the matter should be described fully relat...

Material and methods: 125 patients (IDDM:10, NIDM:115), including 62 men, ages 18-84 years, were studied. In all cases GF (Cr 51 EDTA), ERPF (I-hippuran), kidney split function (obtained from the mTc-MAG3 renogram) and basal serum creatinine (SC) were evaluated at the beginning of the study and patients were clinically followed up for 5 years by SC. Ultrasound and/or intravenous digital angiogr...

Abstract Mn 4+ ‐activated CaAl 12 O 19 (CAO: ) is recognized as a promising candidate for red phosphor used in wide color gamut displays. However, the spontaneous self‐reduction of to 2+ occurs charge compensation through ‐Mn substitution Al 3+ ‐Al , lowering quantum efficiency . To suppress self‐reduction, some divalent metal ions, including Ba Sr Cd Zn and Mg are added instead but only small ...
