Lignocellulosic biomass feedstocks are promising alternatives to fossil fuels for meeting raw material needs of processing industries and helping transit from a linear circular economy thereby meet the global sustainability criteria. The sugar platform route in biochemical conversion process is one extensively studied methods, which consists four major steps: pretreatment, hydrolysis, fermentat...

This article develops the decomposition of the dynamic Luenberger productivity growth indicator into dynamic technical change, dynamic technical inefficiency change and dynamic scale inefficiency change in the dynamic directional distance function context using Data Envelopment Analysis. These results are used to investigate for the Spanish food processing industry the extent to which dynamic p...

With the recent emphasis on batch processing by the emerging industries like the microelectronics and biotechnology, the interest in batch process control has been renewed. In this paper, we present an overview of the Iterative Learning Control (ILC) technique, which can be used to improve tracking control performance in batch processes. We present the fundamental concepts and review the variou...

The basic concept of “an Open Industry Framework” is proposed. Current industry framework is closed and industries are making their efforts to produce best quality products in their own particular field. This is because current industries developed on the basis of their inventions. But quickly increasing diversification and frequent and extensive changes are calling for an open framework. In th...

Increasing environmental concern forces the reduction in share of synthetic surfactants production various industries, including mineral processing, by replacing them with more environmentally friendly compounds biological origin. Several studies on use biosurfactants processing are currently available literature, but they contain limited information related to physicochemistry these processes....
