Energy production in stars [PDF]
FROM TIME IMMEMORIAL people must have been curious to know what keeps the sun shining. The first scientific attempt at an explanation was by Helmholtz about one hundred years ago, and was based on the force most familiar to physicists at the time, gravitation. When a gram of matter falls to the sun's surface it gets a potential energy Epot = −GM/R = −1.

Material and Energy Productivity
Resource productivity, measured as GDP output per resource input, is a widespread sustainability indicator combining economic and environmental information. Resource productivity is ubiquitous, from the IPAT identity to the analysis of dematerialization trends and policy goals.

Productive efficiency of energy-aware walnut production
Innovative cultivation and processing facilities are needed in order for the increased production in Türkiye to be efficient, low energy consumption, and high quality. Therefore, an in-depth analysis of the US California-based walnut producer has been made, which can also be an industrial role model to Turkish producers. The orchard of Chandler variety

Process of Formaldehyde and Volatile Organic Compounds’ Removal fromWaste Gases
Waste gases that cannot be released into the environment are generated in chemical industrial processes. There are various physico-chemical processes for the treatment of these gases, but in most cases, they present a major cost to the company.

Energy Flow in Growth and Production [PDF]
Growth involves two flows of energy: the chemical energy in the monomers used to construct the macromolecules that comprise tissue (proteins, nucleic acids, lipid membranes), and the metabolic energy used to build those macromolecules. The metabolic costs of synthesising the macromolecules necessary to build tissue are well defined, and we have a ...
