Low-carbon operations and production: putting training in perspective
(2014)
The purpose of this paper is mainly to show how training may support low-carbon operations and production management in a more sustainable organizational context. Design/methodology/approach – A conceptual framework to ...
Ecosystem-level carbon stocks and sequestration rates in mangroves in the Cananeia-Iguape lagoon estuarine system, southeastern Brazil
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-01-01)
Mangroves fringe the coastlines of 54% of the world's nations but convey ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, that span administrative boundaries. Despite their high carbon sequestration efficiency and longterm ...
Monitoring the process of densification of 3D and 4D (tridirectional and tetradirectional) carbon/carbon composites
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2015-05-01)
Carbon fiber reinforced carbon composites can be made by iterative liquid impregnation or gas phase carbon deposition routes. In both cases, at the final processing stage the carbon fiber is embedded in carbon matrix which ...
Carbon nanofibers obtained from electrospinning process
(2018-02-01)
In recent years, reinforcements consisting of carbon nanostructures, such as carbon nanotubes, fullerenes, graphenes, and carbon nanofibers have received significant attention due mainly to their chemical inertness and ...
Nanocrystalline carbon flakes deposited by RF magnetron sputtering
(Elsevier, 2016)
Carbon nanostructures were prepared by RF magnetron sputtering at deposition times from 30 to 120 min and temperatures on silicon substrates from 390 degrees C to 510 degrees C. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy ...
Viscoelastic evaluation of epoxy nanocomposite based on carbon nanofiber obtained from electrospinning processing
(2019-01-01)
In recent years, carbon nanofiber composites have attracted researchers worldwide to use in reinforcing nanofillers instead of traditional methods due mainly to their multifunctional properties. Carbon nanofibers promote ...
Carbon Footprint Management: A Pathway Toward Smart Emission Abatement
(Ieee-inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2020-02-01)
There is an increasing concern about controlling and reducing carbon emissions in power systems. In this regard, researchers have focused on managing emissions on the generation side, which is the main source of emissions. ...
Production and characterization of carbon/carbon composites from thermoplastic matrices
(2021-04-01)
Carbon-carbon composites (C/C) are those that have carbonaceous matrix reinforced with carbon fiber. They are widely used in the aerospace field, due mainly to the properties such as low density, high stiffness, and excellent ...
Characterization of thin carbon films produced by the magnetron sputtering technique
(2016-05-01)
Thin carbon films containing both amorphous and crystalline structures were produced by RF magnetron sputtering. The depositions of the carbon films were performed on Co buffer layers previously deposited on c-plane (0001) ...
Carbon budget in integrated aquaculture systems with Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and Amazon river prawn (Macrobrachium amazonicum)
(2021-01-01)
This study was centred on the carbon budget of Integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems in earthen ponds stocked with the freshwater Amazon river prawn (Macrobrachium amazonicum) and Nile tilapia (Oreochromis ...
