Household air pollution and risk of pulmonary tuberculosis in HIV-Infected adults
...
BACKGROUND: In low- and middle-income countries countries, millions of deaths occur annually from household air pollution (HAP), pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), and HIV-infection. However, it is unknown whether HAP influences PTB risk among people living with HIV-infection. METHODS: We conducted a case-control study among 1,277 HIV-infected adults in...
Mechanistic insights into methane total oxidation over Cu/Hydroxyapatite catalyst synthesized with β-Cyclodextrin assist...
...
The total oxidation of methane (CH4), a highly stable alkane volatile organic compound (VOC), using low-cost Cu-based catalysts, has garnered considerable attention. Nonetheless, challenges such as Cu particle agglomeration and the lack of consensus on mechanism of CH4 total oxidation over Cu-based catalysts remain. In this work, β-cyclodextrin (βC...
Assessment of the EDC/finite rate chemistry approach towards predicting extinction in a turbulent buoyant diffusion flam...
Large eddy simulations with the eddy dissipation concept (EDC) combustion model, considering finite rate chemistry effects, are presented for fire-related scenarios (i.e., in the 'FM Global burner' test case). The considered reaction mechanisms are first studied in mixture fraction space, without the inclusion of transport terms in physical space, ...
A truncated transient slab model for a reheating furnace
This paper considers the steel reheating process, in which cold slabs are reheated to a temperature suitable for hot rolling operations. Temperature uniformity within the slab is very important during reheating, as non-uniformities often lead to quality concerns in the later stages of the production process. Attaining slab temperature uniformity is...
Renewable methanol as a fuel for heavy-duty engines : a review of technologies enabling single-fuel solutions
To meet climate targets, a global shift away from fossil fuels is essential. For sectors where electrification is impractical, it is crucial to find sustainable energy carriers. Renewable methanol is widely considered a promising fuel for powering heavy-duty applications like shipping, freight transport, agriculture, and industrial machines due to ...
An exploratory study of knock intensity in a large-bore heavy-duty methanol engine
With current interest from the heavy-duty industry in high -octane renewable fuels like methanol, the currently used compression ignition engines will have to be adapted to dual -fuel (DF) type combustion systems or replaced by spark -ignition (SI) engines. Since both DF and SI engines are characterized by a premixed air-fuel mixture, there is a ri...
