Synergies technology

From today s point of view, there appear to be three areas in which multibusiness companies should seek the potential for synergies technology, market and value chain focus - but not necessarily aU three together (Fig. 6.6). 

Thus, in order to fully realize the potential of catalytic technologies not only will this require technical innovation in multi-disciplinary teams but also the appropriate organizational structures which maximize the synergies between academic and industrial research. The countries which recognize this potential and provide the... 

AET activities are based upon its expertise in the field of protein biotechnology and are oriented to the area of protein stabilization technology and to the development and production of stabilized biosensors. The AET biosensor activities are enhanced by support and synergy with its sister companies Gwent Electronic Materials Ltd. and Gwent Sensors Ltd. 

Dow Chemical has launched a range of foams which are said to exceed industry standards for softness and toughness. This article supplies brief details of the foams which are based on Dow s Insite catalyst technology. Synergy Soft Touch Foams are produced using Dow s Index Interpolymers, a new thermoplastic polymer family based on the copolymerisation of ethylene and styrene. The foams are offered in three grades of softness, and other properties include shock absorption, vibration damping and insulation. 

At the sectoral level, national sector-specific CP strategies should be developed. This would allow CP interventions at company level to be put into a broader perspective and would point out possible synergies between companies, suppliers and customers, allowing gains obtained at the sector and national levels to be optimised. It would also enable adequate choices in technology development and transfer in the country as well as the preparation of coherent investment plans to be presented to potentially interested companies and financial institutions (Fig. 1). 

The photocatalytic membrane reactors (PMRs) combine the advantages of classical photoreactors (catalyst in suspension) and those of membrane processes (separation at molecular level) with a synergy for both technologies. 

Extractive fermentations and biotransformations could be a good example of these. Also, combinations of chemical reaction(s) with separation could have a synergy effect for the production part of technology enhancing its rate and yield. 

There is a general trend in biochemistry toward more quantitative and sophisticated interpretations of experimental data. As a result, demand for accurate, complex, and elaborate calculation increases. Recent progress in computer technology, along with the synergy of increased need for complex biochemical models coupled with an improvement in software programs capable of meeting this need, has led to the birth of computational biochemistry (Bryce, 1992 Tsai, 2000).
