AB  - TiO2 and CeO2 are well known as oxygen sensing materials. Despite high sensitivity, the actual utilization of these materials in gas detection remains limited. Research conducted over the last two decades has revealed synergistic effects of TiO2-CeO2 mixed oxides that have the potential to improve some aspects of oxygen monitoring. However, there are no studies on the sensing properties of the TiO2-CeO2 obtained by mechanochemical treatment. We have tested the applicability of the mechanochemically treated TiO2-CeO2 for oxygen detection and presented the results in this study. The sensing layers are prepared as a porous structure by screen printing a thick film on a commercial substrate. The obtained structures were exposed to various O2 concentrations. The results of electrical measurements showed that TiO2-CeO2 films have a significantly lower resistance than pure oxide films. Mixtures of composition TiO2:CeO2 = 0.8:0.2, ground for 100 min, have the lowest electrical resistance among the tested materials. Mixtures of composition TiO2:CeO2 = 0.5:0.5 and ground for 100 min proved to be the most sensitive. The operating temperature can be as low as 320 °C, which places this sensor in the class of semiconductor sensors working at relatively lower temperatures.

AB  - A new set of software tools for the prediction of the higher heating values (HHV) of arbitrarily chosen biomass species is presented. A comparative qualitative and quantitative analysis of 12 algorithms for training artificial neural networks (ANN) which predict the HHV of biomass using the proximate analysis is given. Fixed carbon, volatile matter and ash percentage were utilized as inputs. Each ANN had the same structure but a different training algorithm (BFGS Quasi Newton, Bayesian Regularization, Conjugate Gradient—Powell/Beale Restarts, Fletcher–Powell Conjugate Gradient, Polak–Ribiére Conjugate Gradient, Gradient Descent, Gradient Descent Momentum, Variable Learning Rate Gradient Descent, Levenberg–Marquardt, One Step Secant, Resilient Backpropagation, Scaled Conjugate Gradient). To ensure an extended applicability of our results to a wide range of different biomass species, the data conditioning was based on diverse experimental data gathered from the literature, 447 samples overall. Out of these, 301 datasets were used for the training, validation and testing by MathWorks MATLAB Neural Network Fitting Application and by custom designed codes, and 146 remaining datasets were used for the independent evaluation of all training algorithms. The HHV predictions of the ANN-based fitting functions were thoroughly tested and intercompared, to which purpose we developed a test suite which applies mean squared error, coefficient of the determination, mean Poisson deviance, mean Gamma deviance and Friedman test. The comparative analysis showed that several algorithms resulted in ANN-based fitting functions whose outputs correlated well with measured values of the HHV. All programming codes are freely downloadable.
