...investigated how impurities affect the design and operation of CO2 transport and storage processes. Experimental work and modelling have advanced the state of the art in the areas of how impurities in CO2 affect thermo-physical properties, fluid flow, corrosion, and reservoir chemical reactivity. High-quality...
...conducted using Norway spruce wood as feedstock at an operation temperature of 350 °C and with a total reaction time of 15 minutes. The bio-crude product was collected and separated using dichloromethane (DCM) as solvent and a centrifugal separator. The results confirm that heating rate has a clear positive...
...promising energy resource for a more sustainable global energy outlook. Thermochemical conversion of biomass is a very attractive and important technology for energy generation and production of value-added products such as charcoal. With the aim of studying the internal processes taking place when thermochemical...
In order to handle the increased uncertainty in future electric power generation and demand, probabilistic models should be used to model the risk when choosing among the different planning alternatives. If probabilistic data are available for the decision variables (e.g. historic observations), then...
Software companies have to identify and manage numerous linked processes to function effectively. We describe how a medium-sized software company improved their software development methodology through implementing an electronic process guide. We discuss how involvement in creating an electronic process...
...annotation of COMPARA, currently the largest parallel corpora which includes Portuguese. We describe the motivation, give a glimpse of the results so far, and the way the corpus is being annotated, as well as mention some studies based on it....
...principal argument for the mainstreaming of disability within development cooperation has been that poverty and disability are closely interlinked. Furthermore, because disabled people, especially women and children, comprise a large proportion of the poorest of the poor, Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)...
...for many different domains and thus for domain specific languages. In this chapter we discuss how domain specific languages can benefit from standardized generic languages to cope with abstraction needs. A successful combination will keep the domain specific language simple and its implementation maintainable...
