PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION OF PROPANE PRE-COOLED MIXED REFRIGERANT (C3MR) PROCESS FOR NATURAL GAS LIQUEFACTION by SHADY, ROBA TAWFIK SAAD MOHAMED

“…The achieved SEC of 0.2649 kWh/kg LNG, on a large-scale plant with a natural gas flow rate of 120 kg/s, results in an 18 MW compression power decrease, saving approximately 17.42 million QAR per year for each C3MR process. …”

Asymmetric effects of oil price shocks on the demand for money in Algeria by Amirouche, Chelghoum

“…This paper investigates the symmetric and asymmetric effects of real oil prices on real money demand in Algeria over the period 1999:Q1–2020:Q1. Using a linear autoregressive distributed lag model (ARDL), and a nonlinear autoregressive distributed lag model (NARDL), we find no evidence of a long-term relationship among the variables. …”

Micromodel Study on Colloid Retention and Mobilization under different Geo-Chemical Conditions during Single and Two-Phase Flow by Nishad, Safna

“…The retention of three different types of colloids (i.e., favorable, unfavorable, and medium favorable conditions) was observed visually in a micromodel. The pore-scale visualizations reveal the impact of colloid deposition profile on colloid release with an increase in flow rate and solution pH as well as a decrease in solution ionic strength. …”

Strategic approaches in oral squamous cell carcinoma diagnostics using liquid biopsy by Kinane, Denis F.

“…In future, liquid biopsy may provide an effective screening process such that cancers including OSCC will be detected in the early stages rather than later when prognosis is poor and morbidity and debilitation are greater. In this screening process, periodontists and hygienists have a critical role in that they are adept in examining mucosa, they see patients with shared risk factors for periodontitis and OSCC, namely smoking and poor oral hygiene, and they see patients frequently such that OSCC examinations should be a routine part of the recall visit. …”
