Micro- and Nanostructured IPNs based on Thermosetting Resins
(Micro- and Nano-Structured Interpenetrating Polymer Networks: From Design to Applications, 2016)
Different components of interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) have different influence on their properties and their behavior in various applications, such as automotive dual curing applications. Dual curing systems, ...
Chitin and chitosan from microorganisms
(Chitin, Chitosan, Oligosaccharides and Their Derivatives: Biological Activities and Applications, 2010)
Today, a major concern about the use of crustacean chitin/chitosan in the pharmaceutical and biomedical field is still the molecular variability of a natural product, which results in a wide unpredictable range of ...
Antioxidants from lamiaceae herbs
(Food Quality: Control, Analysis and Consumer Concerns, 2011)
One of the important trends in the food industry today is the demand for natural antioxidants from plant material. Synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), and butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) now being ...
Solid acids as catalysts for biodiesel synthesis
(Heterogeneous Catalysts: Design, Applications and Research Insights, 2016)
Increased environmental concern and awareness of limited reserves of fossil fuels gave a great importance to alternative and renewable energy sources over the past couple decades. An excellent substitute for mineral diesel ...
Evaluation of Periodic Processes
(Elsevier, 2013)
Bioreactors in tissue engineering
(Cell and Tissue Engineering, 2012)
The underlying philosophy guiding the design and development of advanced bioreactors for tissue engineering purposes is to provide environmental conditions that enable metabolically active cells in threedimensional (3D) ...
Application of alginates in cell and enzyme immobilization
(Alginates: Production, Types and Applications, 2012)
Enzymes are a particularly versatile class of catalysts that perform and regulate processes in living matter. Enzymatic regio-, chemo- and enantioselectivity were used in industry and in organic synthesis. The common ...
Bioprocess intensification of beer fermentation using immobilised cells
(Encapsulation Technologies for Active Food Ingredients and Food Processing, 2010)
Beer production with immobilised yeast has been the subject of research for approximately 30 years but has so far found limited application in the brewing industry, due to engineering problems, unrealised cost advantages, ...
Macroporous and non-porous amino-functionalized glycidyl methacrylate based copolymers for hexavalent chromium sorption
(Chromium: Environmental, Medical and Materials Studies, 2011)
Two porous samples and one non-porous sample of crosslinked poly(glycidyl methacrylate-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) [abbreviated PGME] were synthesized by suspension copolymerization and functionalized by ring-opening ...
Biodiesel production: The problems in software design at supercritical and subcritical conditions
(Supercritical Fluids, 2011)
A large interest in research as well as dramatically increased number of scientific papers covering this topic evidently exists. This chapter covers the literature review of biodiesel production under specific conditions ...
