SG-II-Up prototype final optics assembly: optical damage and clean-gas control

Sulfur Plants: Simplify Tail Gas Clean Up, Lower Costs

Tougher regulations for emissions reductions require refiners to achieve ever higher sulfur recovery efficiency in their Sulfur Recovery Units. A classic solution is to use an amine-based tail gas clean up unit (TGCU) behind a Claus plant. A U.S. refiner, working on a major capacity increase, evaluated and selected an alternate technology. They selected the SUPERCLAUS® Tail Gas Clean Up Process...

Lower limb prosthesis: final prototype release and control setting methodologies

The current research activity on prostheses project at the Robotics Laboratory (Mechanics Department, Politecnico di Milano) is carried on in cooperation with Centro Protesi INAIL and STMicroelectronics. The team is both innovative and interesting, owing to the fact that it not only involves a range of specialists but also gives rise to interdisciplinary aspects. They are absolutely essential i...

Reducing Genome Assembly Complexity with Optical Maps Final Report

The goal of genome assembly is to reconstruct contiguous portions of a genome (known as contigs) given short reads of DNA sequence obtained in a sequencing experiment. De Bruijn graphs are constructed by finding overlaps of length k − 2 between all substrings of length k − 1 from reads of at least k bases, resulting in a graph where the correct reconstruction of the genome is given by one of th...
