Today many manufacturing firms expect a significant impact of 'Industry 4.0' on their supply chains, operations, and business models. However, its complex characteristics are yet to be fully comprehended by most them. As result, there several apprehensions pertaining structure, techno-organisational capabilities, methodologies for shaping the vision Industry 4.0. We propose an 4.0 maturity model, which is empirically grounded technology-focussed assessing level Indian organisations. The...

The degradation of p-nitrophenol (PNP) by Moraxella and Pseudomonas spp. involves an initial monooxygenase-catalyzed removal the nitro group. resultant hydroquinone is subject to ring fission catalyzed a dioxygenase enzyme. We have isolated strain Arthrobacter sp., JS443, capable degrading PNP with stoichiometric release nitrite. During induction enzymes required for growth on PNP, 1,2,4-benzenetriol was identified as intermediate gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC-MS) radiotracer...

Traditionally, the lean paradigm has been applied to discrete manufacturing of items that can be easily put together and taken apart. The process industry, on other hand, transforms raw materials into cohesive units are basically blended a final product with parts cannot disassembled then reassembled. current literature provides numerous commendable examples theory practices principles in manufacturing. However, its application industry is limited. Furthermore, there no systematic accounting...

In deciding to adopt lean manufacturing, it is imperative investigate where and how practices are most needed influence manufacturing business performance. Such an investigation becomes indispensable when thinking be considered in a production arrangement different the conventional, repetitive, high-volume, stable-demand discrete-manufacturing environment. This study provides explanations of performance improved through adoption process industries. relatively under-researched area compared...

Purpose Global competition has intensified pressure on small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) to implement lean. Recently, the debate converged role of lean implementation barriers (LIBs). The purpose this paper is contribute by exploring LIBs in SMEs through three case studies. Design/methodology/approach A study approach was employed followed interpretive structural modelling (ISM) model interrelationship among LIBs. Findings This reveals that lack management commitment, leadership...

Oxygenases belong to the oxidoreductive group of enzymes (E.C. Class 1), which oxidize substrates by transferring oxygen from molecular (O2) and utilize FAD/NADH/NADPH as co-substrate. can further be grouped into two categories i.e. monooxygenases dioxygenases on basis number atoms used for oxidation. They play a key role in metabolism organic compounds increasing their reactivity or water solubility bringing about cleavage aromatic ring. We compiled database biodegradative oxygenases...

A bacterial strain Rhodococcus imtechensis RKJ300 (= MTCC 7085T = JCM 13270T) was isolated from pesticide-contaminated soil of Punjab by the enrichment technique on minimal medium containing 4-nitrophenol. Strain is capable utilizing 4-nitrophenol, 2-chloro-4-nitrophenol, and 2,4-dinitrophenol as sole sources carbon energy. The involved both oxidative reductive catabolic mechanisms for initial transformation these compounds. In case colorimetric analysis indicated that nitrite release...
