Food Tastes in the United States: Convergence or Divergence?

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how food consumption tastes have changed in recent decades across the United States. Using NielsenIQ data for over 77 million transactions, there is evidence of divergence in food tastes across regions from 2007 to 2016 and across households of different income, education, and race/ethnicity groups.

The Role of Actual and Purported Origin in e‐Commerce Wine Pricing: Evidence From Italian and French Names on Labels

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The origin of a product, if associated with good quality, can contribute to building a positive collective reputation, leading to a potential price premium. However, it is conceivable that a producer markets a product by evoking symbols, images, words, and values typical of places other than where it was designed or produced, creating a ...

Design and optimization of processes for recovering rare earth elements from end‐of‐life permanent magnets

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from end‐of‐life (EOL) products represents a strategic opportunity to strengthen the domestic supply chain for rare earth elements. This work presents a superstructure‐based optimization framework for finding the most economical processing pathway for different EOL rare earth permanent magnets (REPMs ...

Transient modeling of extraction columns: Parameter estimation, uncertainty analysis, and operation optimization

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite extensive modeling efforts in extraction research, transient column models are rarely applied in industry due to concerns regarding parameter identifiability and model reliability. To address this, we analyzed uncertainty propagation from estimated parameters in a previously introduced column model and assessed identifiability via ill ...

A multiscale Bayesian optimization framework for process and material codesign

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The simultaneous design of processes and enabling materials such as solvents, catalysts, and adsorbents is challenging because molecular‐ and process‐level decisions are strongly interdependent. Sequential approaches often yield suboptimal results since improvements in material properties may not translate into superior process performance. We

Hybrid modeling for optimizing cell cultivation in mAb production using a small‐scale automated experimental platform

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This work presents the optimization of cell cultivation for monoclonal antibody (mAb) production. We developed a hybrid model describing the effects of multiple process variables on antibody productivity and impurity generation. An automated platform with 12 × 250 mL bioreactors was set up.

Real‐time fault detection in multicomponent nuclear‐waste slurries through data fusion of spectroscopic sensors

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Three instruments–Raman spectroscopy, attenuated total reflectance–Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and focused beam reflectance measurement–were used to detect sensor faults, mixing faults, and unanticipated chemistry in a system of multicomponent slurries.

Trust‐region filter algorithms utilizing Hessian information for gray‐box optimization

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Optimizing industrial processes often involves gray‐box models that couple algebraic glass‐box equations with black‐box components lacking analytic derivatives. Such systems challenge derivative‐based solvers. The classical trust‐region filter (TRF) algorithm provides a robust framework but requires extensive parameter tuning and numerous ...

A rational strategy to optimize photodrugs by Molecular Dynamics simulations for killing drug‐resistant Gram‐negative bacteria

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance has become a major threat to human health, particularly for Gram‐negative bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Disruption of membrane integrity is regarded as a promising antimicrobial strategy that does not induce distinct drug resistance, while increasing the internalization of drug ...

3D investigation and modeling of the geometric effects on porosity in packed beds

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In porous beds, physical boundaries restrict particle arrangement, leading to inhomogeneous porosity. This paper reports on the porosity profiles that are the result of geometric effects on monodisperse packed beds in cylindrical and cubic arrangements. Special focus is given to the influence of edges and corners in cubic geometries.
