Energy Analysis of Pellets Made of Wood Residues
The use of high technology in the manufacture of pellets and their use in modern furnace chambers of boiler plants for remote heating and heating of family houses, are the reason why pellets as the energy source find an ever increasing application.

Post-Thermal Quench Shattered Pellet Injection for small Runaway Electron seed depletion in ITER [PDF]
The possibility of using Shattered Pellet Injection(s) after the Thermal Quench phase of an ITER disruption in order to deplete Runaway Electron (RE) seeds before they can substantially avalanche is studied. Analytical and numerical estimates of the required injection rate for shards to penetrate into the forming RE beam and stop REs are given.

FAM136A depletion upregulated ROS production, reduced mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨ) and ATP production, and upregulated expression of PCK1, PCK2, HMGCS1, and HMGCS2. The expression of both TOMM22 and TOMM20 was also upregulated. FAM136A depletion reduced HCCS that produce holocytochrome c by combining heme to apocytochrome c, and reduced the ...

Constitutive models applied during densification of coal-wood binary solid biofuels
Una de las alternativas para el aprovechamiento de la biomasa es a través de los biocombustibles sólidos generados mediante procesos de densificación de mezclas carbón-aserrín; sin embargo, la densidad final y el grado de cohesión de estos sólidos varían

The pellet rocket effect in magnetic confinement fusion plasmas [PDF]
Pellets of frozen material travelling into a magnetically confined fusion plasma are accelerated by the so-called pellet rocket effect. The non-uniform plasma heats the pellet ablation cloud asymmetrically, producing pressure-driven, rocket-like propulsion of the pellet.

Identification of inhibitors of the Salmonella FraB deglycase, a drug target
A high‐throughput screen was used to identify inhibitors of Salmonella FraB, a drug target. Characterization of top hits (identified after an additional counter screen) revealed that some triazolidines, thiadiazolidines, and triazolothiadiazoles are mixed‐type inhibitors of FraB.

EFFECTS OF INITIAL MOISTURE CONTENT ON THE PRODUCTION AND QUALITY PROPERTIES OF SOLID BIOFUEL
The moisture content of densified biomass is a limit parameter influencing the quality of the solid biofuel. It influences its calorific value, density, mechanical strength and dimensional stability as well as the production process of this biofuel.

The effect of plasmoid drifts on the pellet rocket effect in magnetic confinement fusion plasmas [PDF]
We detail here a semi-analytical model for the pellet rocket effect, which describes the acceleration of pellets in a fusion plasma due to asymmetries in the heat flux reaching the pellet surface and the corresponding ablation rate. This effect was shown in experiments to significantly modify the pellet trajectory, and projections for reactor scale ...

Water Stability and Nutrient Leaching of Different Levels of Maltose Formulated Fish Pellets [PDF]
The effects of different levels of maltose on feed pellet water stability and nutrient leaching were studied. Five treatments, including control with three replicates with setup (0.0, 20, 25, 30 and 35%). Pellet leaching rates were used to indicate pellet water stability. The results show that the presence of maltose in the diets significantly improved
