became more globally structured. Since the 1990s there has been a shift from local to foreign ownership. All assemblers are now wholly owned by multinationals now. There are many indicators that accentuate the fact that it is a very lucrative time for proton to invest in this industry. “The South African automotive industry consists of light vehicle assemblers‚ the medium and heavy commercial vehicle sector‚ the component sector and the retail sector‚ the latter including motor trade and aftermarket

Hydrogen Fuel Cells There are many reasons to look for new cleaner forms of energy. Fossil fuels‚ being non-renewable‚ will eventually run out. Pollution from burning fossil fuels destroys our environment. Hydrogen fuel cells could be used many places where fossil fuels are currently being used. Using hydrogen as a form of energy can not only reduce our dependence on imported oil‚ but also benefit the environment by reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and pollutants that affect our air quality

Describe the significant role the value chain played in the growth and development of the Zongshen Group: * Identify two elements from Porter’s Five Forces Model‚ determinants of buyer power and suppler power‚ to illustrate the problems the group entered with suppliers during the early years of China’s privatization policy. In early history of Zongshen group‚ the state-owned enterprises (SOEs) played a critical role as dominant suppliers in the motorcycle industries. The SOEs have this

Introduction Ballard Power Systems is a global leader in proton exchange member (PEM) fuel for cell technology. This company provides clean energy fuel for various applications and has a multi market growth in fuel cell products (Ballard‚ 2013). The PEM fuel cell is simply the means to clean energy by producing electricity. Although fuel cells have varied applications‚ Ballard’s incentive was to provide their customers with a commercial advantage. And their customers chose Ballard as fuel cells

Formic acid is known to be the simplest carboxylic acid‚ and it is an important factor in chemical synthesis and occurs naturally. The chemical formula for Formic Acid is CH202‚ and is mostly found in the venom of bee and ant stings. Formic acid is clear and colorless with a pungent odor. Formic acid is used in many ways; Formic acid is used to preserve livestock. It is also sprayed on animal food and fresh hay to reduce the decay rate. It can also be used as a pesticide to protect bee

the inner mitochondrial membrane leaky to H+. Explain how this could cause weight loss. In chemiosmosis‚ NADH are passed along the electron transport chain‚ with energy used to pump protons across the inner mitochondrial membrane. As the protons are transferred across‚ a proton gradient is created. These protons can come back across the membrane with the help of the enzyme ATP synthase‚ thereby producing energy (ATP). If the membrane becomes leaky because of DNP‚ hydrogen ions would not be routed
