Palm stearin (POs) and palm kernel olein (PKOo) blends were modified by enzymatic interesterification (IE) to achieve the physical properties of margarine fats. POs and PKOo are both products of the palm oil industry that presently have... more
The energy industry needs to take action against climate change by improving efficiency and increasing the share of renewable sources in the energy mix. On top of that, refrigeration, air-conditioning, and heat pump equipment account for... more
The disposal of 280 million tires generated each year in the U.S. is a great environmental problem. The tires take up large amounts of valuable landfill space and also present fire and health hazards. Tire-pyrolysis plants have been in... more
Nowadays process safety is a key issue at the design and operation of a production process. Unfortunately, at the application of process hazard analysis (PHA) techniques the time aspect of operation and the dynamical behaviour of the... more
In this study, a simple and effective technique for characterizing Michaelis–Menten apparent kinetic parameters in packed-bed immobilized enzyme reactors is presented. The apparent kinetic parameters of immobilized glucose oxidase on weak... more
The present research work deals with the performance of packed bed reactor for continuous H2 production using cane molasses as a carbon source. Maximum H2 production rate of 1.7 L L−1 h−1 was observed at a dilution rate and recycle ratio... more
In this study, a novel continuous reactor has been developed to produce high quality methyl esters (biodiesel) from palm oil. A microporous TiO2/Al2O3 membrane was packed with potassium hydroxide catalyst supported on palm shell activated... more
Gas-phase solar receivers can operate over a wider temperature range than receivers which use conventional liquid heat transfer media. However, due to their relatively poor heat transfer performance, gas-phase receivers require... more
In this study we focus our attention on a strategy to deal with packed-bed catalytic reactors in order to present an alternative methodology for the derivation of a new explicit equation for the determination of apparent kinetics... more
