The in vitro antibacterial activity of ginger (Zingiber officinale) essential oil (GEO) was tested against five Gram-negative and Gram-positive fish pathgenic bacteria isolated from farmed olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) in Korea. According to the results of disk diffusion, minimum inhibitory and minimum bactericidal concentration (MIC and MBC) tests, GEO was active against most of the ...

CO2-based enhanced geothermal systems (EGSs) have been examined from a reservoir-oriented perspective, and as a result thermodynamic performance is well explored. Economics of the system are still not well understood, however. In this study, the economics of the CO2-based EGS technology is explored for an optimized power plant design and best-available cost estimation data. We demonstrate that ...
