Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua

Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua

Many oil refineries employ hydroprocessing for removing sulfur and other impurities from petroleum feedstocks. Capable of handling heavier feedstocks than other refining techniques hydroprocessing enables refineries to produce higher quality products from unconventional — and formerly wasted — sources. Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua illustrates how to obtain maximum yields of high-value products from heavy oils and residue using hydroprocessing technologies. While most resources on hydroprocessing concentrate ongas oil and lower boiling products this book details the chemistry involved and the process modifications required for the hydroprocessing of heavy crude oils and residua. Emphasizing the use of effective catalysts to ensure cleaner and more efficient industrial fuel processes the book presents key principles of heterogeneous catalyst preparation catalyst loading and reactor systems. It explains how to evaluate and account for catalysts reactor type process variables feedstock type and feedstock composition in the design of hydroprocessing operations. The text concludes with examples of commercial processes and discusses methods of hydrogen production. To meet the growing demand for transportation fuels and fuel oil modern oil refineries must find ways to produce high quality fuel products from increasingly heavy feedstocks. Hydroprocessing of Heavy Oils and Residua contains the fundamental concepts technologies and process modifications refineries need to adapt current hydroprocessing technologies for processing heavier feedstocks.

Nutrition and Exercise Immunology

Nutrition and Exercise Immunology

Like an army of millions ready to defend its territory the human immune system acts as the body's primary line of defense-a complex network of interacting cells that protects us from pathogens and other foreign substances. But many components of the immune system exhibit change after prolonged heavy exertion indicating that it is suppressed and stressed albeit transiently following prolonged endurance exercise. For marathon runners distance swimmers and any other endurance athlete who undergoes repeated cycles of heavy exertion a weakened immune system could lead to health complications such as respiratory infection. As a result interest in various nutrient supplements with the potential to counter exercise-induced immunosuppression has grown. Nutrition and Exercise Immunology reviews the link between nutrition and immune function with special application to athletic endeavor. Written by respected researchers in sports medicine and exercise immunology this text covers topics such as carbohydrates and the immune response to prolonged exertion; protein exercise and immunity; and vitamins immunity and infection risk in athletes. It also takes a look at future directions in nutrition and exercise immunology. For sports medicine professionals dietitians nutritionists exercise immunologists as well as endurance athletes Nutrition and Exercise Immunology provides an important and in-depth look into this exciting new area of scientific research.

Phycoremediation Processes in Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Phycoremediation Processes in Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Increasing population and industrialization are the key pollutant contributors in water bodies. The wastes generated by industries are highly hazardous for humans and the ecosystem and require a comprehensive and effective treatment before being discharged into water bodies. Over the years many up gradations have been introduced in traditional water treatment methods which were expensive and ineffective especially for removal of toxic pollutants. Phycoremediation has been gaining attention due to its mutual benefit in wastewater treatment and for valuable algae biomass production. Wastewater especially sewage and industrial effluents is rich in pathogenic organisms organic and inorganic compounds and heavy metals that adversely affect human and aquatic life. Microalgae use these inorganic compounds and heavy metals for their growth. In addition they also reduce pathogenic organisms and release oxygen to be used by bacteria for decomposition of organic compounds in a secondary treatment. In this book the potential of microalgae in wastewater treatment their benefits strategies and challenges are discussed. The increasing need of finding innovative low-cost low-energy sustainable and eco-friendly solutions for wastewater treatment makes the publication of a book on phycoremediation timely and appropriate. Features: (1) Deals with the most emerging aspects of algal research with special reference to phycoremediation. (2) Studies in depth diversity mutations genomics and metagenomics study (3) An eco-physiology culturing microalgae for food and feed biofuel production harvesting of microalgae separation and purification of biochemicals. | Phycoremediation Processes in Industrial Wastewater Treatment

Green Machine Learning Protocols for Future Communication Networks

Green Machine Learning Protocols for Future Communication Networks

Machine learning has shown tremendous benefits in solving complex network problems and providing situation and parameter prediction. However heavy resources are required to process and analyze the data which can be done either offline or using edge computing but also requires heavy transmission resources to provide a timely response. The need here is to provide lightweight machine learning protocols that can process and analyze the data at run time and provide a timely and efficient response. These algorithms have grown in terms of computation and memory requirements due to the availability of large data sets. These models/algorithms also require high levels of resources such as computing memory communication and storage. The focus so far was on producing highly accurate models for these communication networks without considering the energy consumption of these machine learning algorithms. For future scalable and sustainable network applications efforts are required toward designing new machine learning protocols and modifying the existing ones which consume less energy i. e. green machine learning protocols. In other words novel and lightweight green machine learning algorithms/protocols are required to reduce energy consumption which can also reduce the carbon footprint. To realize the green machine learning protocols this book presents different aspects of green machine learning for future communication networks. This book highlights mainly the green machine learning protocols for cellular communication federated learning-based models and protocols for Beyond Fifth Generation networks approaches for cloud-based communications and Internet-of-Things. This book also highlights the design considerations and challenges for green machine learning protocols for different future applications. | Green Machine Learning Protocols for Future Communication Networks
