A Study and Performance Evaluation of Evolutionary Optimization Techniques for Multi-objective Master Production Scheduling Problems
Abstract: Master production schedule (MPS) can effectively and efficiently synchronize the operations in any organization. MPS, which is posed as one of the multi-objective parameter optimization problems, is a plan that determines optimal values of products to be produced. For many engineering optimization problems, more competitive and optimal solutions can be obtained by using Heuristic evolutionary optimization algorithms. Among these, two main algorithms considered here are the differential evolution (DE) whose …

Review-Value Stream Mapping to Increase Productivity
Abstract: Value stream mapping (VSM) is one of the predominant tools of lean methodology to identify waste in production, business and manufacturing by recognizing and removing redundant activities. This map helps us to detect the redundant activity in the entire process line by which we can eliminate it. The existing process steps are scrutinized to reduce the process steps up to the fewest necessary steps. By the consequence, redundant time will …

Whey Valorization in the Dairy Industry: Emerging Technologies and Value-Added Applications
Abstract: Whey is a major by-product of the dairy industry generated during the manufacture of cheese, casein, and other dairy products. Despite being traditionally considered a waste stream, whey contains valuable nutrients, particularly high-quality proteins, lactose, minerals, vitamins, and bioactive compounds, making it an important resource for sustainable food production. Improper disposal of untreated whey can create significant environmental concerns because of its high organic load. Whey valorization, therefore, provides an …

Isolation, Production and Purification of Antibiotics Isolation from Microbes from Soil
Abstract: A chemical compound acting against life is called antibiotics. The term “antibiotic” literally means “against life”. The term appeared as early as 1928 in the French microbiological literature as antibiosis. The phenomenon of antagonism between living organisms was frequently observed even since 1877, when Pasteur and Joubert noticed that aerobic bacteria antagonized the growth of Bacillus anthracis. However, the world in its present restrictive meaning, “a chemical substance derived from …
