IMPACT OF A SYNTHETIC COMPONENT ON THE EMISSION OF VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS DURING THE COMBUSTION PROCESS IN A MINIATURE TURBINE ENGINE

Impact of a Synthetic Component on the Emission of Volatile Organic Compounds during the Combustion Process in a Miniature Turbine Engine

This paper refers to the study of biofuel as an alternative power source for turbine aviation engines.Blends of Jet A-1 fuel and synthesized hydrocarbons from Hydrotreated Esters and Fatty Acids (HEFA) technology at different proportions, such as 25%, 50% and 75%, were used for tests.All the test results were compared with the neat Jet A-1 fuel.A m

Reproductive parameters in the critically endangered Blue-throated Macaw: limits to the recovery of a parrot under intensive management.

Rediscovered in the wild twenty years ago, the breeding biology of wild Blue-throated Macaws remains largely unexplored, yet is essential to its effective conservation and recovery.Here, we analyse reproductive parameters in an intensively managed wild population of Blue-throated Macaws, providing the first data on the breeding biology of this crit

Surgery for nonsmall cell lung cancer

Surgery remains the best curative option COLD FLU RESCUE in patients with early stage lung cancer (stage I and II).Developments in minimally invasive techniques now allow surgeons to perform lung resections on elderly patients, patients with poor pulmonary function or significant cardiopulmonary comorbidities.New techniques, such as stereotactic ra

The Circular Economy Business Model of Algoland

In the Algoland project, microalgae are used to clean water and air from industry.This is built on a long standing collaboration between research, industry and society.In this way Algoland supports the transition to a circular economy by turning pollution into Romper biomass and potential products.This paper evaluates the potential for microalgae a

A novel sperm-delivered toxin causes late-stage embryo lethality and transmission ratio distortion in C. elegans.

The evolutionary fate of an allele ordinarily depends on its contribution to host fitness.Occasionally, however, genetic elements arise that are able to gain a transmission advantage while simultaneously imposing a fitness cost on their hosts.We previously discovered one such element in C.elegans that gains a transmission advantage through a combin
