Antitrust for the fintech era

open access: yesAmerican Business Law Journal, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 57-78, Spring 2026.
Abstract The emerging relationship between fintechs and banks has revealed antitrust's antiquation. At one time, scholars predicted that fintechs could democratize banking while providing a critical source of competition. But then banks began to acquire their digital rivals: about 900 acquisitions of fintechs have taken place since 2021.

Turbulent Flames Speeds and Laminar Burning Velocities of Dusts using the ISO 1 m3 Dust Explosion Method

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2014
The ISO 1 m3 dust explosion vessel was instrumented with thermocouples acting as flame detectors. These were used with methane/air gas explosions to show that the explosion flame was spherical in the constant pressure phase of the explosion and that a ...

Climate Change, Air Quality, and Pollen Allergies—State of the Art and Recommendations for Research and Public Health

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 663-683, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Allergies are one of the major health challenges of our time, associated with a high individual burden of disease and high costs for the healthcare system. Given their prevalence, allergies are also highly relevant from a public health perspective. The development of allergic diseases is multifactorial. In addition to individual factors (e.g.,

A novel method of pure oxy-fuel circulating fluidized bed combustion with zero recirculation flue gas : experimental validation

open access: yes, 2018
Applying oxy-fuel combustion requires more advanced combustion control methods to avoid inadmissible high flam temperature. In fluidized beds and pulverized unites, enhanced heat transfer and recirculation flue gas are used.

The Burning Velocity of Pulverised Biomass: the Influence of Particle Size

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2016
The use of pulverised biomass as a replacement for coal in power generation is a major source of renewable electricity in the UK. However, there is little data on flame propagation rates for pulverised biomass and this makes it difficult to design ...

Explosion reactivity characterisation of pulverised torrefied spruce wood [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Wood and other agricultural powders have been recognised as hazardous for a long time. These kinds of materials are also now being used for power generation in 100% biomass plants or mixed with coal as a way of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. However,
