Co-electrolysis toward value-added chemicals

The Added Value of Value Added Tax

Raising domestic tax revenues is a priority for most sub-Saharan African countries. But the tax bases in most African countries are undermined by widespread tax avoidance and evasion. A new study from CMI supports the claim that improved knowledge about the tax system makes a difference in people’s willingness to pay tax. The study shows that exposure to Value-AddedTax (VAT) makes people take a...

Dicyclopentadiene Hydroformylation to Value-Added Fine Chemicals over Magnetically Separable Fe3O4-Supported Co-Rh Bimetallic Catalysts: Effects of Cobalt Loading

Six Co-Rh/Fe3O4 catalysts with different cobalt loadings were prepared by the co-precipitation of RhCl3, Co(NO3)2, and Fe(NO3)3 using Na2CO3 as the precipitant. These catalysts were tested for dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) hydroformylation to monoformyltricyclodecenes (MFTD) and diformyltricyclodecanes (DFTD). The results showed that the MFTD formation rate increased with increasing cobalt loading, ...

Methods for Accounting for Co-Teaching in Value-Added Models

ii ABSTRACT Isolating the effect of a given teacher on student achievement (value-added modeling) is complicated when the student is taught the same subject by more than one teacher. We consider three methods, which we call the Partial Credit Method, Teacher Team Method, and Full Roster Method, for estimating teacher effects in the presence of co-teaching. The Partial Credit Method apportions r...

Modules for in vitro metabolic engineering: Pathway assembly for bio-based production of value-added chemicals

Bio-based chemical production has drawn attention regarding the realization of a sustainable society. In vitro metabolic engineering is one of the methods used for the bio-based production of value-added chemicals. This method involves the reconstitution of natural or artificial metabolic pathways by assembling purified/semi-purified enzymes in vitro. Enzymes from distinct sources can be combin...
