We have developed a new distributed boosted multi-effect distillation (DBMED) process to effectively harness low-grade “waste heat” in the temperature range 65 °C–90 °C to address the problem of freshwater scarcity. Comparisons are made with

We have developed two predictive methods for the heats of adsorption that stem from isotherm models and benchmarked them against the Clausius–Clapeyron equation. These are the Toth potential function model and the modified Clapeyron equation. Three

Possible applications of geothermal energy are increasingly attracting worldwide interest as a low carbon source of energy. Sedimentary basins offer an accessible low grade geothermal heat source to launch energetically efficient air-conditioning sys

Geothermal heat is a sustainable form of alternative energy, commonly associated with the production of electricity along tectonic plate boundaries and in volcanically active zones. Outside of these special regions however it is rare to find a geothe

Protoplast fusion has made a significant contribution to our understanding of the genetics and biochemistry of the nonconventional yeasts, and it has facilitated the creation of novel strains of yeast that display enhanced biotechnological potential.

A method for predicting the isosteric heat of gas adsorption on solid materials is developed which requires the measurement of a single isotherm – where previous methods, such as the Clausius–Clapeyron approach, require either multiple isotherms

Factors which affected the adherence of the pathogenic yeast Candida albicans to HEp-2 cells were investigated. In order to study this phenomenon a novel means of isolating HEp-2 cells with adherent Candida from mixtures of cells was developed. This

The effect of subinhibitory concentrations of octenidine and pirtenidine on the lipid and sterol composition of Candida albicans was investigated. The total lipid and sterol contents of C. albicans grown in the presence of either octenidine or pirten

The lytic preparation Funcelase was shown to be capable of releasing protoplasts from exponential phase cells ofCandida albicans, Kluyveromyces lactis, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Saccharomycopsis fibuligera andSchizosaccharomyces pombe. The protoplast

Autoclaved solutions of the fusogen Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) give reduced yeast protoplast reversion and hybrid formation. Autoclaving has been shown to cause PEG degradation and increase the acetaldehyde content. Consequently, membrane filtration i
