Plant-based proteins have recently attracted particular interest owing to their sustainable origins, economical costs and health benefits compared animal-based counterparts. However, most of them limited applications due inferior functionality, which is the consequence poor-aqueous solubility, complexity sensitivity environmental stress conditions such as pH, salt temperature. Additionally, pla...

There are different medium voltage (MV) grid concepts with regard to mode of operation and protection system layout. The increasing installation of distributed generation (DG) raises the question if the currently used concepts are still optimal for future power systems. We present a methodology that allows the automated calculation and comparison of target grids within different concepts. Speci...

A techno-economic evaluation for efficient use of energy in a large scale industrial plant of methanol is carried out. This assessment is based on integration of a gas turbine with an existing plant of methanol in which the outlet gas products of exothermic reactor is expanded to power generation. Also, it is decided that methanol production rate is constant through addition of power generation...

Abstract What is techno-optimism and how can it be defended? Although techno-optimist views are widely espoused critiqued, there have been few attempts to systematically analyse what means a one might defend this view. This paper address oversight by providing comprehensive analysis evaluation of techno-optimism. It argued that pluralistic stance comes in weak strong forms. These vary along num...

Abstract Hybrid-electric propulsion is a promising alternative to sustainable aviation and mainly considered for the commuter regional aircraft class. However, development of hybrid-electric variants affected by technology readiness level electric components. The components’ will determine electrification benefit, compared conventional aircraft, suggest which most beneficial variant has closer ...
