California is the largest cement producing state in theU.S., accounting for between 10 percent and 15 percent of U.S. cementproduction and cement industry employment. The cement industry inCalifornia consists of 31 sites that consume large amounts of energy,annually: 1,600 GWh of electricity, 22...

The principal finding of this study was the high capital cost and poor financial performance predicted for the size and configuration of the plant design presented. The XBi financial assessment gave a disappointingly low base-case discounted cash flow rate of return (DCFRR) of only 8.1% based on...

Les ressources en combustibles fossiles étant limitées, l’homme cherche aujourd’hui des combustibles et carburants de substitution. Les biocarburants et bicombustibles sont d’actualité, mais l’exploitation agricole en vue de production de ce type de produits risque de se faire aux...

This paper systematically discusses the evolution of China's industrial and trade policy regarding coke and the effects of this policy over the past decade, particularly from 2004 to 2013. We found that: (1) due to the impact of China's strict industrial policies, the country's coal and coke...

The Short-Term Integrated Forecasting System (STIFS) Demand Model consists of a set of energy demand and price models that are used to forecast monthly demand and prices of various energy products up to eight quarters in the future. The STIFS demand model is based on monthly data (unless...

Competition In its core competency, the Coca-Company has only one serious competitor, the PepsiCo Company, maker of Pepsi-Cola. Current market share of the two companies in the United States stands at 43.7% for Coca-Cola against 31.6% for PepsiCo. British firm Cadbury Schweppes comes in third in...

The Clean Air Act of 1990 initiated a tradable permit program for emissions of sulfur dioxide from coal-fired power plants. The effect of this enlightened policy on the coal industry was a large increase in consumption of low-sulfur bituminous and subbituminous coals. Low-sulfur bituminous coal...

The purpose of this study was to further explore the potential of the Hofstede paradigm as a predictor, and to uncover some meaningful interaction effects. Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions as predictors, rather than correlates, of consumer behavior at the national level are presented and...

A fraction of mixed plastic waste was gasified using olivine as a bed material and activated carbon as a tar-cracking additive in a two-stage gasifier. The effects of the amount of activated carbon, the use of an activated carbon filter, and the removal of an EP (electrostatic precipitator) from...

The increasing demand of fossil fuels and decreasing light oil proven reserves lead to a future scenario of abundant coke production from the refinement of non-conventional fossil hydrocarbons. This paper highlights the possibility of using coke as an agrichar for preparing fertile soils...

We report that the price of a 6.5oz Coke was 5¢ from 1886 until 1959. Thus, we are documenting a nominal price rigidity that lasted more than 70 years! The case of Coca-Cola is particularly interesting because during the 70-year period there were substantial changes in the soft drink industry...

To enhance clean energy utilization and reduce greenhouse gases, various gasification technologies have been developed in the world. The gasification characteristics, such as syngas flow rate, compositions, cold gas efficiency and carbon conversion, of petroleum coke and mixture of petroleum...

The production of aluminum by the electrolytic Hall–Héroult process suffers from high energy requirements, the release of perfluorocarbons, and vast greenhouse gas emissions. The alternative carbothermic reduction of alumina, while significantly less energy-intensive, is complicated by the...

Brand equity is affected by many factors such as brand commitment, brand awareness, perceived quality and brand association. One of them brand royalty is important component of brand equity. In this research, it was investigated consumers’ brand preferences, brand royalty level and brand...

Flue gases from coal, gas, or oil-fired power stations, as well as from several heavy industries, such as the production of iron, lime and cement, are major anthropogenic sources of global CO2 emissions. The newly proposed process for syngas production based on the tri-reforming of such flue...

We simulated models of diffusion and aggregation in long pores of small widths in order to represent the basic mechanisms of coke deposition in catalysts’ pores. Coke precursors are represented by particles injected at the pore entrance. Knudsen diffusion, which is usually expected inside the...
