For ethanolamine (MEA) many degradation products have been identified and quantified, and the formation of these compounds at different process conditions should be verified. This presentation shows that lab scale experiments, especially cycled degradation rigs, are capable of mimicking formation of...

...when the sharing economy and collaborative consumption was starting to make a significant impact on Norwegian society and way of life. With international hospitality and mobility services leading the way, several home-grown digital platforms also saw noticeable growth in users and income. New legislation...

...presented jointly by CPACT (www.cpact.com), IRTA Monells (www.irta.cat) and DigiFoods (www.digifoods.no) of which Nofima (www.nofima.no) and SINTEF (www.sintef.no/digital) are leading members. Quality control, authenticity testing, and optimisation of manufacturing processes are common challenges in all...

The opening discussion will address the elephant in the room: How can cultural heritage and e-mobility be the common theme for a conference? What brings these topics together and how will they both shape our cities in the future? Hear from the coordinators of the two projects influencing this year's...

A set of two- and three-phase experiments were conducted in a 50 m long 400 vertical pipe using nitrogen, Exxsol D60 and water at 45 bara pressure. The results show that the liquid content and pressure drop are highly sensitive to the injected water cut. The proposed explanation for this surprising result...

...modeling sampled data and performing computations and numerical simulations directly on the model or its elements. To effectively and efficiently address the approximation of point clouds, we propose the weighted quasi-interpolant spline approximation method (wQISA). We provide global and local bounds of the...

A deviation between the calculated and the measured data of energy use in buildings (known as performance gap) has been extensively reported. The aim of this study is to identify the underlying causes of the deviation between the measurements and simulation data of the temperature profiles in a test...

...distribution pipes, and gradually reduces the cross section that is available for alumina transport. The scale cannot be removed without dismantling the transport pipes and using chemical and/or mechanical treatments. This leads to interruptions in normal operation, requires additional labour, and a stock of...

Effective risk and opportunity management is key to the successful delivery of any major engineering and　construction project. This book looks at how all those involved can manage risk and capitalise on the opportunities that uncertainty present. The authors of this book highlight that uncertainties...

In this paper we will propose a set of considerations and guidelines we believe are critical to achieve efficient flow in non-repetitive production. The proposed factors are insights gained through application of lean principles to two cases of non-repetitive manufacturers....

...data providers and consumers can publish and access company data. The core of the platform is the semantic data model that is the conceptual representation of company data in a common way so that it is easier to share and interlink company data. In this paper we show how the unified model and Grafterizer...
