The Norwegian grid tariff structure has changed, going over to capacity-based solutions to better reflect the actual grid-capacity used by the end-users. With monthly demand charge putting a price on highest peak-consumption, ...

The uptake of chatbots for customer service depends on the user experience. For such chatbots, user experience in particular concerns whether the user is provided relevant answers to their queries and the chatbot interaction ...

2D planar simulations of 3D cylindrical fluidized bed reactors are routinely carried out in order to reduce computational costs. The error involved in this simplification is largely unknown, however, and this study was ...

Technology Centre Mongstad (TCM) has experienced in 2017 a corrosion-related failure in a stripper reboiler of an amine unit, during a series of long-term test campaigns 2017-2018 for CO2 capture using monoethanolamine ...

Typical offshore structures are designed as tension-leg platforms or gravity based structures with cylindrical substructures. The interaction of waves with the vertical cylinders in high sea states can result in a resonant ...

Drying kinetics of Saccharina latissima (raw and blanched) at low temperatures (10.0, 25.0 and 38.0 °C) was studied. The effective moisture diffusivity coefficient varied due to temperature alterations in the range between ...

Various inorganic membranes have demonstrated good capability to separate hydrogen from other gases at elevated temperatures. Hydrogen-permeable, dense, mixed proton-electron conducting ceramic oxides offer superior ...

Using a heat exchanger with several parallel channels in boiling services, static instabilities like the Ledinegg instabilities can occur, resulting from a combination of unfortunate operating conditions and the heat ...

In the Hall-Héroult process, sulfur impurities may not only emit harmful gases but also reduce current efficiency. To better understand this process, the behaviour of sulfur compounds in a cryolite-alumina melt at 1253 K ...
