A pilot study of same-day MRI-only simulation and treatment with MR-guided adaptive palliative radiotherapy (MAP-RT).

We conducted a prospective pilot study evaluating the feasibility of same day MRI-only simulation and treatment with MRI-guided adaptive palliative radiotherapy (MAP-RT) for urgent palliative indications (NCT#03824366). All (16/16) patients were able to complete 99% of their first on-table attempted fractions, and no grades 3-5 toxicities occurred.

Characterization and Evaluation of Hydrothermal Liquefaction Char from Alkali Lignin in Subcritical Temperatures.

An evaluation of hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) char is investigated in this work. Morphological studies, N adsorption behavior, FTIR analysis, thermal behavior, and elemental composition are studied. The HTL char yield showed an increase with higher operating temperatures.

Conceptual design of an integrated hydrothermal liquefaction and biogas plant for sustainable bioenergy production.

Initial process studies carried out in Aspen Plus on an integrated thermochemical conversion process are presented herein. In the simulations, a hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) plant is combined with a biogas plant (BP), such that the digestate from the BP is converted to a biocrude in the HTL process. This biorefinery concept offers a sophisticated and sustainable way of converting organic residuals into a range of high-value biofuel streams in addition to combined heat and power (CHP) production.
