INTEGRATION is a state-of-the-art software package that helps optimize heat recovery and reduce thermal energy use in industrial facilities. INTEGRATION brings together powerful diagnosis and optimization capabilities, to quickly identify and deliver heat recovery solutions that improve the performance of heat exchanger networks and utility systems, while considering a range of operational and ...

From the 1970s to 1990s, more stringent air quality regulations were implemented across North America and Europe to reduce chemical emissions that contribute to acid rain. Surface water pH slowly increased during the following decades, but biological recovery lagged behind chemical recovery. Fortunately, this situation is changing. In the past few years, northeastern US fish populations have be...

To quantify the complex relationships between (1) the temperature, and temperature differences, on the surface of the breast as recorded by infrared thermal imaging and (2) the underlying physiological and pathological factors, we have developed a dynamic finite element method for comprehensive modeling of both the thermal and elastic properties of normal and tumorous breast tissues. In the ste...

The two main objectives of this communication are to present a study of potential advantages and disadvantages of the doublet supply-injection well configuration in an aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) system and to report on aquifer storage problems with injection temperatures in the 80øC range. A 3-month injection-storage-recovery c cle followed by a 7.3-month cycle constituted the main e...

With the increasing installed capacity of desalination, the greenhouse gas emission for generating the required energy to power the desalination plants is also becoming the focus of attention in the world community. Domestic reverse osmosis membranes have been very successful technology especially in the developing world to provide safe drinking water. The novel concept of photovoltaic powered ...

The shape memory effect is the most important attribute of alloys where material can recover to its initial after deformation by heating above transformation temperature. In this article, thermally induced recovery well-defined microscopic in a NiTi alloy was investigated. Surface performed indenting plasma sprayed martensitic phase at room temperature using spherical indenters. series indentat...

This study compared the effects of a low-frequency electrical stimulation (LFES; Veinoplus(®) Sport, Ad Rem Technology, Paris, France), a low-frequency electrical stimulation combined with a cooling vest (LFESCR ) and an active recovery combined with a cooling vest (ACTCR ) as recovery strategies on performance (racing time and pacing strategies), physiologic and perceptual responses between tw...

Extreme temperatures restrict the performance of terrestrial arthropods and variations in low temperatures on a latitudinal scale influence physiological variables. Recovery time from chill coma is a measure of cold tolerance and it is a good index of climatic adaptation. We tested differences in recovery time of the common woodlouse (Porcellio laevis) exposed to different thermal conditions. I...

acetone fractionated peroxidase from crude extract of brassica oleracea leaves (cabbage) was purified in three steps on chromatographic columns, using sp-sepharose, deae-sepharose and con a-sepharose. the specific activity of purified main isoenzyme (boc-pod) is 1887 u/mg protein with rz: 3.1, which is 172 times more than the rz of crude extract with 4.3% recovery. the molecular weight of boc-p...
