Globally refiners continue to face several challenges as environmental policies are becoming increasingly stringent. The profitability of refiner’s is influenced because of strict regulations on sulphur content of gasoline & diesel oil and curbs on refinery emissions. Agencies such as the International Maritime Organizationhas already proposed changes in specifications of bunker fuel oil. These regulations will drastically impact the refinery’s profitability which would then have a tough time increasing or maintaining current refining margins. Thus those refineries which currently produce a substantial amount of residual oil and lack the complexity to upgrade it to middle distillates will face difficulties. They either have to invest in commercially proven and reliable solutions to convert residual oil to more valuable liquid products or face a threat to shut down the refinery as the operation becomes uneconomicalto continue. With the increasing crude oil prices and growing demand for middle distillates refiners have felt the need to invest in this segment.

Unified Threat Management is a security solution that comprises of features such as gateway antivirus, on-appliance reporting, data leak prevention, VPN (Virtual Private Network), network firewalling, gateway anti-spam and load balancing content filtering that offers values to the organizations. UTM solutions utilize optimum energy and are low cost solutions as compared to intensive point security solutions. UTM solutions are used by enterprises owing to its supple and scalable features which enhances IT productivity.

Machine vision (MV) is a technology used to provide imaging based automatic analysis and inspection in various industrial applications such as process control, automatic inspection and robot guidance among others. Common machine vision technology applications include sorting, quality assurance, robot guidance, material handling and optical gauging. This technology offers various benefits such as automation of production process, higher production speed and improved product quality. MV technology is being increasingly used to replace manual measurements and inspection with digital cameras and image processing. The deployment of machine vision technology in manufacturing line has increased and is expected to rise due to the development of smart cameras. These smart cameras do not need a computer to run on and are small, durable and easy to configure. Furthermore, enhanced adoption of MV systems in major non-industrial applications such as healthcare and security and surveillance is expected to fuel the growth of this market over the forecast period.

Epilepsy is a group of long-term neurological disorders that is characterized by recurring seizures. These seizures are episodes that occur when group of nerve cells or neurons in brain sends wrong signals. Seizures could differ from primary generalized seizures to partial seizures depending upon the cause of the epilepsy. Patients suffering from epilepsy may complain about strange emotions and sensations or they may behave strangely. Epilepsy is the fourth most common brain disorder affecting people of all ages. For the treatment of epilepsy, doctors prescribe antiepileptic medicines (AEDs) and the preference for the drug depends on the type of seizures to be treated, age of the patient, part of the brain involved and seriousness of the seizures.

Research efforts in last two decades have provided us huge amount of genomic information for almost each and every form of life. Bioinformatics is a multidisciplinary research field that combines computer science, biology, statistics and mathematics for the management of biological information. The software and applications used in bioinformatics is used to gather, analyze, store and integrate genetic and biological information which can later be applied to gene based drug developments. Computer diagnostics offers wide opportunities to clinicians and pathologists in detecting difficult to culture pathogenic bacteria and viruses to reveal epidemiology and disease prevalence. Bioinformatics based testing have made a major impact and contribution in uplifting cancer diagnostics and therapeutic management.

Phosphoric acid is an inorganic acid and is the largest produced and consumed acid in terms of value and second-largest in terms of volume after sulfuric acid. Phosphoric acid is used in the production of phosphate chemicals that typically find use in water treatment, detergent builders and fire control chemicals among others. Moreover, phosphoric acid is used in applications such as metal surface treatments, beverage acidulation and animal feed production. Fertilizer is the largest application segment of phosphoric acid followed by detergents, water treatment and metal treatment among several other application segments. The growing demand for all these applications from end-user industries such as agriculture, manufacturing and FMCG is expected to drive the global phosphoric acid market in the coming years.

Dispersing agents are surface active or non surface active polymers that are added to a suspension or colloid to prevent settling or clumping of particles. They help in breaking down petroleum oil into smaller droplets. Dispersing agents may be surfactants or gases. Environmental factors such as water salinity and temperature influence the effectiveness of dispersants. These agents have a wide range of applications in automotives, concrete, detergents, bio-dispersing, surface coating and oil drilling industries among others.

Cast and splint is an orthopedic device utilized for the protection and support of fractured bone and joint. Cast and splint is helpful to immobilize the injured limb and joint until it fully heals. Cast is more effective and supportive for the protection of injured bone and limb as compared to splint. Splint is also called as half cast which is faster and easier to use as compared with casting. Splint is less supportive than cast and are available in many different size and shape. Cast and splint are widely utilized in orthopedic surgery worldwide and are made from fiberglass or plaster. Cast and splint made from fiberglass are more effective and accurate as compared with plaster due to less weight, durability, porous nature and available in variety of colors. Advantage associated with plaster cast and splint is that it is less expensive as compared with fiberglass cast and splint. Before utilization of cast and splint skin should be covered with padding (cotton) which act as a protective layer for skin. For a speedy recovery it is necessary to take proper care of the splint and cast that keeps the splint or cast dry, avoid contact with dirt, do not trim the splint or cast and inspect the splint or cast regularly. There are lot of custom made splint or cast available in the market that are widely utilized in various orthopedic surgeries.
