District heating networks: enhancement of the efficiency
During the decades the district heating’s (DH) advantages (more cost-efficient heat generation and reduced air pollution) overcompensated the additional costs of transmission and distribution of the centrally produced thermal energy to consumers.

Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Thermostat settings in English houses No evidence of change between 1984 and 2007 [PDF]
Rising demand temperatures are widely blamed for UK home energy use not declining over time despite the increased efficiency of dwelling envelopes and heating technologies The hypothesis that thermostat settings have risen over time is tested using a ...

Protein aggregates threaten proteostasis and cell health. In human cells, Hsp70–J‐domain protein‐based disaggregases remove aggregates, but how they assemble remains unclear. Our biochemical findings show that DNAJA2‐ and DNAJB1‐containing disaggregase scaffolds enhance luciferase aggregate targeting, and that Hsp70 recruitment by both J‐domain ...

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Multi phase system for metal disc induction heating: modelling and RMS current control [PDF]
This paper presents a multi phase induction system modelling for a metal disc heating and further industrial applications such as hot strip mill. An original architecture, with three concentric inductors supplied by three resonant current inverters leads

On the Maximum Efficiency of Realistic Heat Engines [PDF]
In 1975 Curzon and Ahlborn ( Am. J. Phys; vol. 43, p. 22) studied a heat engine with thermal losses and derived an expression for its efficiency that described the performance of actual heat machines better than the traditional result due to Carnot.

The process of internalization of the Shiga toxin A subunit via formation of a complex with the Shiga toxin B subunit, which specifically binds to the Gb3 receptor. The peptide is designed to act as a carrier of drugs into cancer cells. Here, we explored the potential of peptides derived from the catalytic A subunit of Shiga toxin (STxA) to be drug ...

Thermoeconomic approach for the analysis of low temperature district heating systems [PDF]
In this paper a thermoeconomic analysis of district heating systems is performed. The analysis aims at comparing possible options to supply heat to the users, using low temperature networks.

Unraveling everyday heating practices in residential homes [PDF]
Recent research has found that low-emission buildings do not necessarily meet their full theoretical energy saving potential and one of the reasons for this discrepancy is related to occupancy.
