Liquid phase optimisation in a horizontal flow biofilm reactor (HFBR) technology for the removal of methane at low temperatures
(Elsevier, 2014-01-03)Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas often emitted in low concentrations from waste sector activities. Biological oxidation techniques have the potential to offer effective methods for the remediation of such emissions. ... -
Liquid phase optimisation in a horizontal flow biofilm reactor (HFBR) technology for the removal of methane at low temperatures.
(2013-03)In this study, methods of improving the methane oxidation performance of a biofilm technology, the horizontal flow biofilm reactor (HFBR), operated at low temperatures were investigated. Three pilot scale HFBRs were ... -
A living thick nanofibrous implant bifunctionalized with active growth factor and stem cells for bone regeneration
(Dove Medical Press, 2015-02-04)New-generation implants focus on robust, durable, and rapid tissue regeneration to shorten recovery times and decrease risks of postoperative complications for patients. Herein, we describe a new-generation thick nanofibrous ... -
Long-term inter-annual variability of a cyclonic gyre in the western Irish Sea
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2011-05-26)The western Irish Sea gyre (WISG) is a cyclonic baroclinic flow around a dome of stagnant water which develops each year during the heating season in the western Irish Sea. Research was carried out to determine long-term ... -
A Machine Learning Application for Classification of Chemical Spectra
(2008)This paper presents a software package that allows chemists to analyze spectroscopy data using innovative machine learning (ML) techniques. The package, designed for use in conjunction with lab-based spectroscopic ... -
Macromolecular crowding meets tissue engineering by self-ssembly: A paradigm shift in regenerative medicine
(Wiley, 2014-02-06)Advancements in molecular and cell biology have led to the development of cell-based therapies to treat injured or degenerated tissues. [1] The rationale of this concept is that functional regeneration can be achieved ... -
Management and rehabilitation of peatlands: the roles of water chemistry, hydrology, policy, and emerging monitoring methods to ensure informed decision making
(Elsevier, 2022-04-03)As the world's most abundant source of terrestrial carbon, peatlands provide numerous ecosystem services, including habitat biodiversity and freshwater quality. Land and water management practices in relation to peatlands, ... -
Managing Digital Image Collections from your TV-Set: A State-of-Art Review
(IEEE, 2007-07-14)The problem of managing growing digital image collections is discussed in the context of a home user. The use of a conventional television set as both a viewing and management tool is discussed. The problem of linking ... -
