Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.Schematic approach of the green diesel production process and its utilization. ABSTRACT A unique green catalyst was derived from novel powdered Uzere tallow seeds shell calcined at 700°C for 1 h in a muffle furnace. The catalytic activity of the Uzere acidified catalyst was due to a high proportion of sulphur trioxide, calcium oxide, and potassium ...

How to Approach the Definition of WUI in Northern Europe
Fire and Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article aims to delineate the wildland–urban interface in the sparsely populated, limited‐resourced Scandinavian peninsula (excluding Finland). Common WUI mapping assumptions and how different thresholds capture the reality of building ignition from wildfire in this region are evaluated.
