A collaborative work was carried out by the Spanish and Portuguese ISFG Working Group (GEP-ISFG) to estimate Y-STR mutation rates. Seventeen Y chromosome STR loci (DYS19, DYS385, DYS389I II, DYS390, DYS391, DYS392, DYS393, DYS437, DYS438, DYS439, DYS460, DYS461, DYS635 [GATA C4], GATA H4, A10) were analyzed in a sample of 3,026 father/son pairs. Among 27,029 allele transfers, 54 mutations observed, with an overall rate across 17 1.998 × 10–3 (95% CI, 1.501 2.606 10–3). With just one...

The elimination of sulfur from fossil fuels via hydrodesulfurization (HDS) is paramount to produce cleaner fuels. Ultradeep HDS refers reducing in below the 10 ppm level. Nevertheless, under such conditions, dibenzothiophenes (DBTs) are be desulfurized presence highly complex aromatic structures that possibly exert inhibitory effects. Therefore, this contribution presents a kinetic study inhibition effect diverse structures: naphthalene (NP), fluorene (FL), and phenanthrene (PHE), on...

The dry reforming of methane is a promising technology for the abatement CH4 and CO2. Ni–La2O3 catalysts are characterized by their long-term stability (100 h) when tested at full conversion. kinetics over these types has been studied using both power-law Langmuir–Hinshelwood-based approaches. However, studies typically deal with fitting net rate, hence disregarding competing parallel surface processes different possible configurations active surface. In this work, we synthesized catalyst...

The biosorption properties of ethylenediaminetetraacetate (EDTA)-treated biomass baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) are studied for the removal Cadmium(Cd), Lead(Pb), and Copper(Cu) from artificially prepared industrial wastewater. metal ions chosen studies with regard to their availability in industry potential pollution impact. optimum capacity these on is obtained at pH 5. It observed that sorption EDTA-treated increases when initial concentration increased. Both Langmuir Freundlich...

Solid-State Fermentation (SSF) offers a valuable process for converting agri-food by-products (AFBP) into high-value metabolites, with Yarrowia lipolytica 2.2ab (Yl2.2ab) showing significant potential under laboratory-scale controlled conditions; however, its assessment in larger-scale bioreactor scenarios is needed. This work evaluates Yl2.2ab’s performance bench-scale custom-designed packed-tray bioreactor. Key features of this design include short packing length, wall-cooling system, and...

Catalytic reactor engineering bridges the active-site scale and industrial-reactor scale, with kinetics as primary bottleneck in scale-up. The main challenge is conceptualizing active site formulating reaction mechanism, leading to multiple approaches without clear guidance on their reliability for design. This work assesses different conceptualization reaction-mechanism formulation selective oxidation over a complex multi-metal catalyst. It integrates atomistic-scale insights from periodic...

An industrial-scale catalytic reactor for ethylene production via the oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane (ODH-C2) over a highly active and selective SnO2-NiO-based catalyst is investigated using pseudo-heterogeneous model (describing both gas solid phase making use effective kinetic transport coefficients). More particularly, dominant phenomena at micro- macroscale in packed-bed configuration with low tube-to-particle diameter ratio (dt/dp) are assessed. First, relevance kinetics on...

In the last decade it has been a special interest to incorporate hydrodynamics in packed bed reactor models. This seems be important case of highly exothermic partial oxidation reactions normally performed beds with low tube/particle diameter ratio (dt/dp< 5) because large void distributions radial and axial directions, which have direct impact on magnitude radial, angular profiles velocity field, consequently both, temperature concentration catalytic reactor. A successful model needs an...

This work describes a heat-transfer study conducted in two beds of low tube/particle diameter ratio (dt/dp ≈ 3) with almost the same but different lengths, packed catalyst spheres, operating quasi-adiabatic and nonadiabatic modes. The operation short bed mode provided independent sets experiments to estimate effective thermal conductivity at various Reynolds numbers. information was transferred successfully model long mode. modeling compares classical approach heat transfer no hydrodynamics,...
