Conversion of methane to C4&plus aliphatic products in high yields using an integrated recycle reactor system
No full textThis invention relates to processes and systems for the conversion of methane in high yields to C4+ hydrocarbons. The principal steps of the recycle process include reacting methane and O2 in an oxidative coupling reactor over a Mn/Na2WO4/SiO2 catalyst at 800�� C. to convert the methane to ethylene, and oligomerizing the ethylene product by reacting it with an H-ZSM-5 zeolite catalyst at 275�� C. in a catalytic reactor for subsequent conversion of the ethylene to higher hydrocarbons. Total yields of C4+ products using the process of the invention are in the range of about 60% to about 80%, and yields of C4+ nonaromatic hydrocarbons are in the range of about 50% to about 60%.U

No full textStav: 3Označení: 061/2020Lokalizace/okolnosti: Opava - Zlatníky, ul. Na Louky. Parc. č. 172. RD Jakub Losert.Souhrn/upřesnění: Při jiném archeologickém dohledu byla zjištěna tato neohlášená akce. Jednalo se o skrývku travnatého povrchu louky (cca h = 0,3 m) pro stavbu RD na hlinité podloží nivního sedimentu. Rozměry skryté plochy pro RD cca 7 x 18 m. Dále byly uvnitř skrývky vyhloubeny základové pasy (cca š = 0,5 m, h = 0,6 m) až do sprašového podloží – archeologicky negativní. Další výkopy byly za skrývkou domu. Jednalo se o liniový výkop pro splaškovou kanalizaci, dále pak výkop pro septik, přepad a pro bazén (4 x 10 m). Geologický profil výkopů: kvartérní hlinité a jílovité uloženiny, sprašové podloží.

Mesophilic-hydrothermal-thermophilic (M-H-T) digestion of green corn straw
No full textMesophilic-hydrothermal (80-160 degrees C, 30 min)-thermophilic (M-H-T) digestion and control tests of mesophilic (M), thermophilic (T), hydrothermal-mesophilic (H-M), and mesophilic-thermophilic digestion (M-T) of green corn straw were conducted for a 20-day fermentation period. The results indicate that M-H-T is an efficient method to improve methane production. A maximum methane yield of 371.74 mL/g volatile solid was obtained by the M (3 days)-H (140 degrees C)-T (17 days) process, which was 20.44%, 16.55%, 31.44%, and 14.31% higher than the yields of the M, T, 140-M, and M-T processes. The enhanced methane production was attributed to (1) the improved hemicellulose degradation and lignin disorganization; (2) prevention of the degradation of soluble sugar, easily hydrolyzed hemicellulose and cellulose into furfural and methylfurfural; and (3) lack of formation of Maillard reaction products during initial hydrothermal treatment.

Lah–Ribarič type inequalities for (h, g; m)-convex functions
No full textRecently introduced new class of (h, g; m)-convex functions unifies a certain range of convexity, thus allowing the generalizations of know results. In this paper we prove Lah–Ribarič type inequalities for (h, g; m)-convex functions from which we obtain inequalities of Hermite–Hadamard, Fejér, Giaccardi, Popoviciu and Petrović. © 2021, The Author(s) under exclusive licence to The Royal Academy of Sciences, Madrid
PEDAGOGICAL ASPECTS OF INTRODUCING THE GREEN PROGRAM INTO WORKING WITH PERSONS WITH MENTAL AND PHYSICAL DISABILITIES
No full textDiplomska naloga obravnava problematiko izobraževanja odraslih oseb z motnjo v duševnem in telesnem razvoju. Vseživljenjsko učenje je nujno za te osebe, saj tako ohranjajo že pridobljeno znanje in spoznavajo nove vsebine, ki jim pomagajo h kvalitetnejšemu življenju. Danes se odnos do oseb s motnjami v duševnem in telesnem razvoju spreminja tako, da so vedno bolj vključene v normalno življenje, ni pa bilo vedno tako. V Varstveno delovnem centru Polž si prizadevamo ponuditi uporabnikom kakovostno storitev in jim poleg različnih dejavnosti nudimo tudi vključitev v Zeleni program, kjer uporabniki spoznavajo delo na vrtu. V empiričnem delu naloge je predstavljen projekt Zelenega programa in uspešnost uporabnikov pri projektu.Thesis deals with the problem of adult education of people with disabillities in mental and physical development. Lifelong learning is essential for these persons, as this is the way to retain already acquired knowledge and learn new content, which helps improve their quality of life. Today, the attitude towards persons with disabilities in mental and physical development is changing so that they are becoming more and more involved in normal life, but this was not always the case. In Occupational activity centre Polž, we strive to offer users quality service and in addition to various activities we also offer the inclusion in the Green programme where users learn to work in the garden. Project Green programme and performance of the users in the project is presented in empirical part of the thesis
The long-wavelength view of GG Tau A: rocks in the ring world
No full textWe present the first detection of GG Tau A at centimetre wavelengths, made with the Arcminute Microkelvin Imager Large Array at a frequency of 16 GHz (λ = 1.8 cm). The source is detected at >6 σrms with an integrated flux density of S16GHz = 249 ± 45 µJy. We use these new centimetre-wave data, in conjunction with additional measurements compiled from the literature, to investigate the long-wavelength tail of the dust emission from this unusual protoplanetary system. We use an MCMC-based method to determine maximum likelihood parameters for a simple parametric spectral model and consider the opacity and mass of the dust contributing to the microwave emission. We derive a dust mass of Md ~ 0.1 Msun, constrain the dimensions of the emitting region and find that the opacity index at λ > 7 mm is less than unity, implying a contribution to the dust population from grains exceeding ~4 cm in size. We suggest that this indicates coagulation within the GG Tau A system has proceeded to the point where dust grains have grown to the size of small rocks with dimensions of a few centimetres. Considering the relatively young age of the GG Tau association in combination with the low derived disc mass, we suggest that this system may provide a useful test case for rapid core accretion planet formation models
A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
No full textSpectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

I bring out his capital immediately
and until such time as their capital
is released things are quite
difficult. "' There are very few
provinces in Canada that will supply
the Dutch settlers with a loan",
Mr. Jensma stated.
On her arrival here Mrs. Evers
i was astounded at the unusua1.
building of the city and the large
• ields of wheat. " Of course we have
wheat too, but ours is only a small
country so we have to be very
economical and not spend out
land too freely". The buildings are
much taller and narrower, especially
in the cities. Wood is very
expensive so most of the homes are
built of brick and concrete with
corrugated steel and tile roofs.
Give True Picture
In her travels across the country
Mrs. Evers hopes she can lenrn
much about the living conditions
here and the possibilities for the
Dutch settlers so when she re-
| turns to her homeland she will b- i
able to give the women of Holland
all the information possible and
prepare them for their great adventure.
Mrs. Evers and her family reside
on a 150 acre farm in the
northern part of the country. Her
daughter Tjaakje is a teacher in
home economics and her son.

Besides serving on the immigration
board she is a member of the
international board of the YWCA;
the international Council of Women:

She will leave on Tuesday for

Refinements of some fractional integral inequalities for refined (α, h− m) -convex function
No full textThis article investigates new inequalities for generalized Riemann–Liouville fractional integrals via the refined (α, h− m) -convex function. The established results give refinements of fractional integral inequalities for (h− m) -convex, (α, m) -convex, (s, m) -convex, and related functions. Also, the k-fractional versions of given inequalities by using a parameter substitution are provided. © 2021, The Author(s)
