About the Author
Malcolm Lloyd Dubber is a scientist, specializing in explosives chemistry, CBRNe and emergency planning. He gained a Master of Philosophy (MPhil) degree in Explosives Chemistry from the City University, London. He is a Chartered Scientist (CSci), Chartered Chemist (CChem), Member of the Royal Society of Chemistry (MRSC), and a Fellow of the Emergency Planning Society (FEPS). He is a former U.K. Home Office Civil Defence Scientific advisor (stood down in 1992). He has the unusual combination of working with explosives and radioactive substances that led him to work at the U.K. s Atomic Weapons Establishment (AWE) Aldermaston. He has worked as a local government emergency planning officer and has undertook the preparation of special emergency plans, such as Chernobyl, Ukraine. Although experienced in writing reports and plans, he ha
Evaluating the Efficiency of Hydropower as an Alternative Energy Source and its Effects on the Ecosystem
Dr. Raj Shah, Ms. Sharika Hoque, Mr. Stanley Zhang | Koehler Instrument Company
Introduction
Humans have been utilizing the abundance of water for thousands of years. For example, the ancient Greeks used water mills as a form of hydroelectric power to grind wheat into flour and perform other tasks. Today, hydroelectricity accounts for 73% of global renewable energy generation through three main hydropower facilities: impoundment dams, run-of-the-river dams, and pumped storage facilities. The most common type of hydroelectric power plant is an impoundment facility. This type of plant uses a dam to store river water and then releases the water into a turbine which causes it to spin. Unfortunately, dams can potentially disrupt the river ecosystems on which they are built on, but modifications can be made to limit these harmful effects.

Sense of winning under difficult conditions and a loving life. GLOUCESTER, England (PRWEB) April 19, 2021 Malcolm Lloyd Dubber revisits the story of naval officer, lieutenant commander Ewan Jones and nurse Hazel Almonde in his latest publication titled “Signal from Malta” (published by AuthorHouse UK).
A sequel to “Return to Malta,” this book finds the romance between Ewan and Hazel caught up in the closing days of World War II. Now a married couple, Ewan and Hazel are involved in naval intelligence operations to capture for escaping Nazis. Hazel is assigned to lead a party of nurses to Italy, while Ewan patrols the Albanian coast in search of a German SS Panzer division. Ironically, the Nazis have enlisted help from the Russian secret police (NKVD) in exchange for weapons communist insurgents in the Balkan
Artificial Photosynthesis as a Renewable Energy Source
Dr. Raj Shah, Ms. Eliana Matsil, Ms. Gabrielle Massoud | Koehler Instrument Company
The urgency of realizing a clean substitute to our fossil fuel energy supply is increasing exponentially. The study of artificial photosynthesis as a renewable energy source has been carried out for decades. This approach uses biomimetic techniques to replicate the process of natural photosynthesis, which uses abundant resources of sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and energy-rich carbohydrates. By replicating this operation, researchers are able to design systems which utilize these natural resources to convert solar energy into chemical energy and store it in the bonds of a fuel. Fuels that are able to be produced by artificial photosynthesis include hydrocarbons such as formic acid (HCOOH), methanol (CH3OH), carbon monoxide (CO), and methane (CH4), or pure hydrogen fuel. The chemical processes involved in artificial phot
