Enzymatic biodiesel production from Manilkara Zapota (L.) seed oil
(Springer, 2017)Oil obtained from the seeds of Manilkara zapota (L.) was transesterified with methanol using lipases as biocatalysts. Four commercially available lipases, such as, porcine pancreas, Candida rugosa, Pseudomonas cepacia and ... -
Fuel not food: towards sustainable utilization of gutter oil
(Taylor & Francis, 2017)Waste cooking oil is discarded into sewage and waste bins in various developing countries. In China, the discarded oil is scooped illegally from drains by smugglers. After collection, the obtained waste oil is reprocessed; ... -
Optimised dynamic control philosophy for improved performance of mine cooling systems
(Elsevier, 2019)Mine workers require substantial cooling and ventilation to work in a safe and habitable environment. Deep level mine cooling systems were identified as significant energy-intensive consumers to supply such cooling. Mine ...
