  2. 1. Heat-transfer Enhancement for Slurries from Biogas Plants− Properties, processes, and thermal systems

    Author : Jingjing Chen; Xiaoyan Ji; Bona Lu; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; heat-transfer enhancement; slurry; rheological properties; computational fluid dynamics; twisted tubes; biogas production; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract :  Biomethane production from renewable residues with anaerobic digestion gains increasing attention as a crucial alternative to petroleum fuels. It has been vigorously developed, but the large amounts of subsidy from the government indicate that the process efficiency needs to be further improved. READ MORE

  4. 2. Composite Nanostructured Materials for Renewable Energy Applications

    Abstract : Diverse sources of energy are becoming increasingly significant in today's world. The most common source of energy today is fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas. While this energy source has many advantages, it also comes with many problems. READ MORE

  5. 3. Molecular Thermodynamic Models for Nano-Micro Fluid/Solid Interfaces

    Author : Nanhua Wu; Xiaoyan Ji; Yuanhui Ji; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Energiteknik; Energy Engineering;

    Abstract : Introducing materials with large interfaces to enhance process performance has become a feature of advanced chemical engineering, where the research focus has been changed from the traditional ideal isotropic fluid in the bulk phase to the highly non-ideal anisotropic confined fluid on the nano-micro interfaces, owing to the strong and asymmetric interactions between the complex fluids (supported metal nanoparticles, ionic liquids, proteins, etc.) and the sophisticated solid-surface (roughness, electrostatic effects, chemical heterogeneities, etc. READ MORE

  6. 4. Probing Ligand Binding Mechanisms in Insulin-Regulated Aminopeptidases : Computational analysis and free energy calculations of binding modes

    Author : Sudarsana Reddy Vanga; Hugo Gutiérrez-de-Terán; Johan Åqvist; Efstratios Stratikos; Uppsala universitet; []

    Abstract : In recent years insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) has emerged as a new therapeutic target for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease and other memory-related disorders. So far, many potent and specific IRAP inhibitors had been disclosed, including peptides, peptidomimetics, and low-molecular-weight sulfonamides. READ MORE
