Facing severe air pollution and growing dependence on natural gas imports, the Chinese government plans to increase coal-based synthetic natural gas (SNG) production. Although displacement of coal with SNG benefits air quality, it increases CO2 emissions. Due to variations in air pollutant and CO2 emission factors and energy efficiencies across sectors, coal replacement with SNG results in vary...

The risks caused by Electrostatic discharges (ESD), where electronic components may be damaged in Electronic production and testing facilities, are well known.

their activities (tasks and errors) in a list form. I. INTRODUCTION Direct training in the industrial sector, i.e. experimentations and learning in situ, particularly at high-risk sites (SEVESO sites), is not feasible for many obvious reasons, especially safety. Virtual environments for learning are increasingly seen as promising alternatives to train learners safely without facing or producing...

The influence of the industrial sector is a longstanding assumption in entrepreneurship studies, yet the mechanisms through which the industrial sector shapes entrepreneurial phenomena and the processes through which entrepreneurial actors interact with sectors to prospect, develop and exploit entrepreneurial opportunities remain largely under-theorized and little understood. We critically re-e...

The energy sector holds the key in accelerating the economic growth of India. To achieve Economic Growth, we need to and have to use more and more energy to increase the pace of development. On the consumption front, the industrial sector in India is a major energy user accounting for about 52 percent of commercial energy consumption. Electrical energy and thermal energy constitutes the major o...
