Operation optimization of propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant LNG Process: A novel integration of knowledge-based and constrained Bayesian optimization approaches by Roba Shady (22048043)

“…In addition, the optimized SEC in this study is 14.5 % to 38.6 % lower than those reported in the literature. At large-scale LNG production (10,000 tons per day), the reduction in the SEC is translated into an 18 MW decrease in compression power, saving approximately 4.7 million $ per year for each C3MR train. …”

Global burden and strength of evidence for 88 risk factors in 204 countries and 811 subnational locations, 1990–2021: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2... by Michael, Brauer

“…We separated risk factors into three groups according to trajectory over time: those with a decreasing attributable burden, due largely to declining risk exposure (eg, diet high in trans-fat and household air pollution) but also to proportionally smaller child and youth populations (eg, child and maternal malnutrition); those for which the burden increased moderately in spite of declining risk exposure, due largely to population ageing (eg, smoking); and those for which the burden increased considerably due to both increasing risk exposure and population ageing (eg, ambient particulate matter air pollution, high BMI, high FPG, and high SBP). …”

A cross-sectional analysis of zinc and copper levels and their relationship to cardiovascular disease risk markers in Qatar biobank participants by Abdelhamid Kerkadi (10724304)

“…Additionally, higher Zn/Cu ratio (T2 and T3) were associated with lower ORs for elevated fibrinogen levels [OR = 0.3, p = 0.005 (T2), and OR = 0.27, p = 0.005 (T3)] compared to T1, indicating a lower risk of developing CVD. The study reveals a link between Zn, Cu, and the Zn/Cu ratio and cardiovascular disease risk. …”
