An improved technique for identification of mathematical model parameters of thermal power equipment and assessment of its performance

The problems of state estimation of thermal power system operation and identification of mathematical model parameters have not been acceptably solved due to the complexity of studied objects and their mathematical models, and the lack of effective methods, algorithms and computer programs to solve the required mathematical problems.The BIRDS resul

Application of a Burkholderia cepacia lipase-immobilized silica monolith to batch and continuous biodiesel production with a stoichiometric mixture of methanol and crude Jatropha oil

Abstract Background The enzymatic production of biodiesel through alcoholysis of triglycerides has become more attractive because it shows potential in overcoming the drawbacks of chemical processes.In this study, we investigate the production of biodiesel from crude, non-edible Jatropha oil and methanol to characterize Burkholderia cepacia lipase
