The postcombustion separation of CO2 from a flue gas mixture is a unit operation in carbon capture. Today, CO2 is normally separated with alkanolamines in aqueous solutions. These absorption processes are energy intensive and costly. Increased environmental considerations and the significant...

The Chinese food market is very large and represents a significant opportunity for overseas companies. If this opportunity is to be exploited, however, there is still a need to understand the Chinese consumer’s response to production by different countries of origin. The purpose of this paper...

This paper studied soil erodibility of slope farmland in Guizhou mountain areas by the plot runoff method, analysis and test. Results show that the variation coefficient of erodibility K value calculated according to formula introduced by Sharply is low and relatively stable and accurate, so it...

In the Yangliu Mine in Huaibei Coalfield, violent magma intrusion produced two layers of the igneous cover sills and the annular dike and caused the ejection of gas and water in the bed splitting from the surface well that destroyed the gas extraction system on the surface. The source, flow...

Boron doped (B-doped) diamond films are deposited onto WC-Co inserts by HFCVD with the mixture of acetone, trimethyl borate (C3H9BO3) and H2. The as-deposited B-doped diamond films are characterized with scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectroscopy, Raman...

This study analyzes the effect of pharmaceutical price regulation on delays in new drug launches. Because low price in one market may 'spill-over' to others, though parallel trade and external referencing, manufacturers may rationally prefer longer delay or non-launch to accepting a low price....
