Britain was one of the pioneers of the use of sewage gas in engines and in the use of a range of gaseous fuels in duel fuel engines. Gas engines, usually spark ignited, have probably been most widely used in the USA. Today, there is world-wide interest in using natural gas in IC engines for power generation and in heat recovery. Cogeneration is commercial in more and more countries as power demands exceed installed capabilities. combustion under any normal regime produces virtually no carbon (soot) nor hydrocarbons heavier than methane. For a given energy release, Methane produces less CO2 than any other hydrocarbon fuel. Nox control from its in IC engines is possible by using lean-burn techniques or catalytic control. packaged cogeneration; catalytic exhaust gas cleaning for engines used in cogeneration; emission control for IC including diesel engines; oxygen control for gas engines with catalytic convertors; controls and monitoring of gas engines; a model to predict performance and heat release in dual-fuel diesel engines.

As the paradigm of education in academia continues to shift towards more diversity and inclusion, educators need to consider incorporating a “both-and” mindset when designing relevant education models in adult education. In order to attain a cross-sector collaboration among diverse stakeholders, innovative education practice settings with instructional strategies that meet the learning needs of every student need to be evaluated and implemented. Competency-Based and Social-Situational Approaches for Facilitating Learning in Higher Education is a critical research resource that discusses project-based and social-situational instructional practices within community engagement as a method for educating adults. The approaches to designing and implementing learning activities show how to optimize community and business knowledge assets to collaboratively design and implement curricula in order to work toward social justice and community development. Divided into three sections, this publication provides extensive coverage on the design and delivery of academic programs, instructional approaches, and more, making it an ideal resource for professionals, adult education practitioners, faculty, administrators, community activists, researchers, and academicians.

This volume gathers together some of the real and the imagined lives of Willa Muir, one of the finest and fiercest intellectuals of her generation. Her writing is rich with paradox - although obsessively Scottish in subject and style, she resented Scotland; although a trenchant champion of feminism, she voluntarily sacrificed her identity to that of the 'poet's wife'; and although she was a committed reformer, she never aligned herself with any political or ideological movement. These passionate dichotomies are intertwined in her writing, giving a particular power to her fiction and non-fiction alike. This collection is the first publication to offer a sense of the diversity of Willa Muir's oeuvre. It makes possible the re-evaluation of her work and assures her of a deserved place in the Scottish literary canon.
