Supercritical water deasphalting and desulphurization of heavy fuel oil with comprehensive molecular‐level analysis and techno‐economic analysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Supercritical water deasphalting. Abstract The removal of sulphur from heavy fuel oil (HFO) is essential to address environmental concerns and comply with the stringent regulations imposed by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in 2020. Previously, the acceptable limit for sulphur was 3.5 wt.%, but it was recently changed to 0.5 wt.%.

Optimization of a reactor for biostimulant production with emphasis on the economic aspects of hydrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Biostimulants are increasingly used in agriculture to promote plant growth, improve stress tolerance, and support sustainable farming practices. One common method of production is chemical hydrolysis of protein‐rich waste, such as tannery by‐products, offering an economical and eco‐friendly alternative to conventional raw materials.

Ultra‐Fast and Economical Pre‐Breakdown Electrochemical Synthesis of Intrinsically Conductive Polymer Suspension for Production of Safe Lithium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This paper presents a breakthrough pre‐breakdown electrochemical method for synthesizing polyNiMeOSalen suspensions, achieving an 83% yield and nanoscale dispersion ($1500/kg) and environmental impact (1.42 kg CO2eq/kg). We report a novel pre‐breakdown electrochemical synthesis method for producing polyNiMeOSalen suspensions with exceptional ...

DEPRECIATION IN VITRUVIUS

open access: yesThe Classical Quarterly, 2013
Vitruvius has something interesting to say at De architectura 2.8.8: Non enim quae sunt e molli caemento subtili facie venustatis, non eae possunt esse in vetustate non ruinosae. itaque cum arbitrio communium parietum sumuntur, non aestimant eos quanti facti fuerint, sed cum ex tabulis inveniunt eorum locationes, pretia praeteritorum annorum singulorum

Real Business Cycles with Capital Maintenance [PDF]

open access: yes
We develop a stochastic general equilibrium model in which maintenance endogenously affects the capital depreciation rate. The model performs well in generating maintenance series that match closely existing survey-based measures for Canada.

Modeling the Used Vehicle Market Share in the Electric Vehicle Transition

open access: yesWorld Electric Vehicle Journal
The adoption of a new technology is well described by an S-curve. It starts with a slow initial introduction, faster growth, and a final low-pace stage that corresponds to saturation.
