Innovative catalysts for process intensification of methane reforming and propane dehydrogenation reactions
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2014-06-27)In the early decade, a rapid increase in oil consumption was recorded, that led to a widening between the predicted demand for oil and the known oil reserves. Such trend, mainly due to the growing new economies, is causing ... -
Intelligent monitoring of the injection moulding process
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2011-04-04)The quality requirements of injection-moulded components have become more stringent because of the growing s applications of plastics and increasing customer demands. The quality of the moulded parts depend on the processing ... -
Flexible Barrier Materials for Improving the Durability of Photovoltaic Devices
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2014-04-28)The economic viability of photovoltaic (PV) devices is strongly dependent upon equipment cost and durability. During their usage, these devices are exposed to several atmospheric degradation agents and thus they need to ... -
High Cell Density Cultivation to Produce Heterologous Proteins by S. cerevisiae Strains: a Holistic Approach to Investigate and Optimize the System
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2014-04-22)The research of this PhD thesis has been focused on the study and realization of high cell density cultivation (HCDC) systems with auxotrophic strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, these latter to be used as hosts ... -
Advanced polymeric composites for self-healing structural materials
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-06-16)This research work rises from collaborative activities between Alenia Aeronautica (Pomigliano D’Arco, Napoli) and the Industrial Engineering Department of University of Salerno. One of the biggest challenge facing materials ... -
The effect of temperature on flow properties of powders
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-06-18)Changes of cohesive flow properties of powders at high temperature are observed in many industrial process units, such as fluidized bed reactors, granulators and dryers. Many authors investigated the behaviour of powders ... -
Nanoencapsulation of bioactive compounds for food applications
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-06-19)The increase in dietary-intake-related illnesses, such as obesity, cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, diabetes and cancer, have made in recent years the development of health-and-wellness promoting foods a priority of ... -
Transport properties of modified concrete by surface and bulk hydrophobization via nano-clay addition
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-06-13)In recent decades, the concrete for years considered unchangeable and with an unlimited life, with exceptional mechanical properties which have determined principally its success, was in fact subject to phenomena of ... -
Continuous supercritical emulsion extraction: process characterization and optimization of operative conditions to produce biopolymer microspheres
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-07-04)Controlled release systems for therapeutic drugs have received extensive attention in recent years, due to their great clinical potential. Biodegradable microspheres are well-recognized systems to control the release rate ... -
Dispersion of inorganic fillers in polymeric matrices for food packaging applications
(Universita degli studi di Salerno, 2012-06-14)The objective of this PhD project regards the formulation, preparation and characterization of polymeric materials in which lamellar inorganic solids containing potentially active molecules are dispersed. In particular ...
