Durene conversion in a methanol‐to‐jet process: Exploring conversion at 150–350°C over different acid catalysts

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Acid catalyzed conversion of durene by isomerization, disproportionation, and transalkylation is of interest to the development of a methanol‐to‐jet process to reduce the amount of durene in the kerosene. It was of interest to determine whether durene conversion could be performed at a temperature lower than 350°C.

Beyond hydrogen: Process design of a biogas steam reformer for Fischer–Tropsch synthesis

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
The effect of pressure and steam to carbon ratio on carbon conversion. Abstract We present an analysis of a pilot‐scale multi‐tubular biogas steam reforming reactor, part of a sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) development project in Brazil. The novelty of this work is the application of a new, validated power law kinetic model, specifically developed for

Wild meat consumption in changing rural landscapes of Indonesian Borneo

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Wild meat can play a crucial role in the food system of rural communities residing near tropical forests. Yet, socio‐ecological changes across tropical landscapes are impacting the patterns and sustainability of meat consumption. To understand the prevalence, frequency and drivers of wild meat, domestic meat and fish consumption in this ...

Determination of Thermal Efficiency and Fuel Consumption Rate of a Pressure Cooker Fueled with Blends of Waste Vegetable Oil and Kerosene

Turkish Journal of Agriculture: Food Science and Technology
In Nigeria, before the removal of subsidy on kerosene in 2016, the product was accessible to low-income individuals and is intended to be used as a fuel for cooking, lighting, or heating. Recently, kerosene is rapidly vanishing from rural families and it

Characteristics, properties and limitations of per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) and fluoropolymers

Polymer International, EarlyView.
An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

Household energy demand and the equity and efficiency aspects of subsidy reform in Indonesia [PDF]

, 2006
The proper design of price interventions in energy markets requires consideration of equity and efficiency effects. In this paper, budget survey data from 29,000 Indonesian households are used to estimate a demand system for five energy sources, which is
