Ever-stringent environmental constraints dictate that future coal cleaning technologies be compatible with micron-size particles. For super-clean coal production, the degree of liberation needed to separate coal from mineral matter, including pyrite, requires grinding to 10 μm or below. In addition, large amounts of fine coal are discharged to refuse ponds because current coal cleaning technolo...

Heat stroke is a life-threatening disease characterized clinically by central nervous system dysfunction and severe hyperthermia (core temperature rises to higher than 40 °C). The unchecked rise of body core temperature overwhelms intrinsic or extrinsic heat generation mechanism, thus overwhelms homoeostatic thermoregulation. Hyperthermia causes cellular and organ dysfunction with progressive e...

This article, grounded in ecofeminism, considers the earth as symbolising women and girls liberation of earth. When environment is liberated from abuse, its capacity to sustain human life enhanced. In same way, when are freed all forms oppression exploitation allowed be self-actualising people, their contribute meaningfully sustainable development welfare Given that play key culturally prescrib...

We study an extended Gross-Neveu model with Nf quark flavors and with an additional SU(2) (global color) degree of freedom of the quarks. The four fermion interaction in the color channel is mediated by a random color matrix with fixed strength. The effective potential for the quark condensate and the scalar correlation function is investigated in the large Nf -limit. Quark antiquark thresholds...

Tween 80 (0.1%, v/v) added to Thermomonospora curvata growing in minimal medium caused a transient lowering of the dry cell mass, decreased the optimal growth temperature of the thermophile from 62 to 54°C, and increased extracellular esterase activity. Cells grown in the presence of Tween 80 had decreased concentrations of branched chain fatty acids and increased concentrations of oleic acid. ...

Dynamical wave function collapse models entail the continuous liberation of a specified rate of energy arising from the interaction of a fluctuating scalar field with the matter wave function. We consider the wave function collapse process for the constituents of dark matter in our universe. Beginning from a particular early era of the universe chosen from physical considerations, the rate of t...

The periodic nature of blooms is the main characteristic in marine plankton ecology. Release of toxic substances by phytoplankton species or toxic phytoplankton reduce the growth of zooplankton by decreasing grazing pressure and have an important role in planktonic blooms. A simple mathematical model of phytoplankton-zooplankton systems with such characteristics is proposed and analysed. As the...

In a previous publication3 it was shown that spinal transection is followed by a pronounced reduction of tissue permeability.' Since it is known that spinal reflex centers for the liberation of epinephrine are located in the thoracic segment of the splnal cord,4 and since Favilli reported a reduction in skin permeability after.epinephrine injections, the question arose as to whether the liberat...

Women’s rights are closely related to economic development. This is true both across countries, where women have most rights in the richest countries, and in time series data: women have slowly improved their legal position in parallel with fast improvements in the standard of living. In most cases, the initial extension of rights to women amounted to a voluntary renouncement of power by men. I...
