Optimization of Construction Equipment Efficiency and Cost using Simulation and Field Data

Creator:

Kumar, Deepak

Abstract:

Unlike other industries, overall efficiency of construction projects has been growing minimally which directly causes cost overruns of projects. Though reducing idle time and increasing operational efficiency of construction equipment could result in significant cost saving, there is lack of practical knowledge of adjusting operational efficiency and integrating cost and...

Biochemical conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to ethanol : experimental, enzymatic hydrolysis modeling, techno-economic and life cycle assessment studies

Creator:

Kumar, Deepak

Abstract:

Ethanol production from lignocellulosic feedstock has been under intense scrutiny as a transportation fuel due to its potential to address concerns of increasing energy consumption, limited fossil energy resources, climate changes due to greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, and especially use of non-food biomaterials, which address the biggest limitation...
