Management planning for woodland owners : an example

This publication demonstrates one way of organizing and preparing a forest management plan for your property. By no means should you consider this the best or only way for you to plan; conditions vary—and so should your approach to planning.Published August 1983.

Management planning for woodland owners : why and how

Management planning—the words conjure up visions of gray suits, corporate boardrooms, and Ivy League business schools. Planning for the woodland owner need not be so intimidating. A plan, simply put, is a guide that tells what you have, what you want to do, and how to do it.Published September 1983. A more recent revision exists.

Improved THETA-1 for light olefins oligomerization to diesel: Influence of textural and acidic properties

The increase in diesel demand, especially in Europe, and the need for high fuel quality requirements are forcing refiners to move into additional processes for production of high cetane diesel in order to meet the present market trends. Oligomerization of light olefins into middle distillate range products is a viable option. The fuel produced through this technology is environmentally friendly, free of sulfur and aromatics, and the adequate choice of the heterogeneous catalyst will direct the selectivity towards low branched oligomers, which will result in a high quality product. In this work we show the benefits of combining basic desilication treatments for generation of additional mesoporosity in mono-directional Theta-1 zeolite, with selective acid dealumination steps that restore not only the microporosity to values close to those of the parent samples, but also the total and strong Bronsted acidity. These modified Theta-1 zeolites present an outstanding catalytic behavior for oligomerization of propene, with a largely increased initial activity, a much higher resistance to deactivation with time on stream, and an improved selectivity to products in the diesel fraction, as compared to the original microporous Theta-1.The authors thank BP Products of North America for their financial support and permission to publish this work, and Consolider Ingenio 2010-Multicat, the "Severo Ochoa Program", and MAT2012-31657 for financial support.

Scientific, sustainability and regulatory challenges of cultured meat

Producing meat without the drawbacks of conventional animal agriculture would greatly contribute to future food and nutrition security. This Review Article covers biological, technological, regulatory and consumer acceptance challenges in this developing field of biotechnology. Cellular agriculture is an emerging branch of biotechnology that aims to address issues associated with the environmental impact, animal welfare and sustainability challenges of conventional animal farming for meat production. Cultured meat can be produced by applying current cell culture practices and biomanufacturing methods and utilizing mammalian cell lines and cell and gene therapy products to generate tissue or nutritional proteins for human consumption. However, significant improvements and modifications are needed for the process to be cost efficient and robust enough to be brought to production at scale for food supply. Here, we review the scientific and social challenges in transforming cultured meat into a viable commercial option, covering aspects from cell selection and medium optimization to biomaterials, tissue engineering, regulation and consumer acceptance
