FEASIBILITY STUDY ON MICROALGAL BIOFUEL PRODUCTION Joash Savaris Castro Abstract Oil price is a major issue globally as oil is a major requirement in almost all industries to operate. Another arising issue is the diminishing supply of fossil fuel or crude oil from major suppliers. With these in mind‚ researches for a potential alternative source of fuel are conducted all over the world. Microalgae is found to be a potential feedstock for the production of biofuel. Production of biofuel from

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is an increasingly important issue for all businesses around the world. CSR covers economic‚ legal‚ ethical‚ and philanthropic responsibilities of firms. Explain the factors that may motivate an MNE to adopt CSR in its international business strategy and operations. How might the country context influence the types of CSR initiatives undertaken? Support your answer with real world examples or cases. Introduction In the beginning of the 1980s state and

Energy is the foundation of industrialized world; without energy‚ life as we know it would cease to exist. The yearly energy and fuel consumption rates have risen dramatically within the last years. This phenomenon is a direct result of globalization pressures‚ the international information network we call the Internet‚ and a population that seems to be hitting the dangerous upswing of the Malthusian curve. Although there is not yet a current shortage of conventional fuels‚ such as reserves of coal

Binding curves: CD can be used to monitor the binding if s substrate to a protein. The substrate can give a very different CD spectrum when free in the solution relative to when bond in solution. Outside of farUV: 180-240nm. 1. Near UV CD: 240n-320nm‚ Aromatic amino acids and disulphide bonds. 2. Visible CD: d-d transition in some metal protein complexes for eg Cu (II) prion.

Valence electrons: 4 Property: Non-metal Abundance:- Carbon is the 4th most abundant substance in universe and 15th most abundant substance in the earth’s crust. Compounds having carbon atoms among the components are known as carbon compounds. Previously‚ carbon compounds could only be obtained from a living source; hence they are also known as organic compounds. Bonding In Carbon:- The Covalent

CHAPTER 17 SPONTANEITY‚ ENTROPY‚ AND FREE ENERGY Questions 11. Living organisms need an external source of energy to carry out these processes. Green plants use the energy from sunlight to produce glucose from carbon dioxide and water by photosynthesis. In the human body‚ the energy released from the metabolism of glucose helps drive the synthesis of proteins. For all processes combined‚ ∆Suniv must be greater than zero (the second law). 12. Dispersion increases the entropy of the universe because

Abstract The activity of invertase and the quantification of albumin and casein were performed and analyzed after extraction of the said proteins from their respective sources. Isolation of proteins was initiated by the breakage of the cell wall / membranes in three different ways. Homogenization of invertase‚ albumin and casein were achieved via grinding process‚ addition of 1M acetic acid and acidification by 0.1M hydrochloric acid correspondingly. Extraction of invertase and casein involved
