From agricultural waste to active films: Enhanced crystallinity of spent mushroom substrate-derived cellulose via deep eutectic solvent-based microwave-assisted pretreatment and it... by Antira Wichaphian, Phonthida Yasan, Wasu Pathom-aree, Saisamorn Lumyong, Nakarin Suwannarach, Jaturong Kumla, Supakit Chaipoot, Supawitch Hoijang, Tharnthip Krasian, Patnarin Worajittiphon, Winita Punyodom, Benjamas Cheirsilp, Guangce Wang, Sirasit Srinuanpan

“…A deep eutectic solvent (DES)-based microwave-assisted pretreatment was developed to extract and enhance cellulose crystallinity from SMS. Using optimized conditions—choline chloride and zinc acetate DES at 1:1 M ratio, 1:30 w/v cellulose-to-DES ratio, 640 W microwave power, and 2.5-min hydrolysis—the process yielded pretreated cellulose (PC) with 51.66 % crystallinity index and 95.82 % recovery yield. …”

THE CONCEPT AND SCOPE OF MUNICIPAL GOVERNANCE ENTITIES’ COMPETENCE IN RUSSIAN FEDERATION AND CANADA by A. Larichev

“…This does not lead to contradiction between this carrier and other municipal governance entities (specifically, local authorities), as the latter carry out activities for the competence implementation on behalf of the corporation.The approach to the municipality as a corporation originally anticipated the use of the ultra vires doctrine, which excludes from municipal jurisdiction the issues and powers not ex-pressly granted by statute. …”

Fast Task Scheduling With Model Predictive Control Integrating a Priority-Based Heuristic by Francesco Liberati, Manuel Donsante, Chiara Maria Francesca Cirino, Andrea Tortorelli

“…In addition, the algorithm shall provide in real time an update of the planning, in case some unforeseen events require a re-scheduling of the activities. While a standard application of mixed-integer optimization would not be feasible in practice due to the combinatorial complexity of the problem, the scalable MPC algorithm proposed in this paper retains all the flexibility and modelling power of optimization-based techniques, and is almost as fast as the state of the art scheduling heuristics, which in real scenarios can provide a sub-optimal solution in few seconds, or less. …”
