- Using Competitive Technology Intelligence to Determine Potato Peel Upcycling Trends and Applications(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2022-11-20) Fox Miranda, Itzel; TEJADA ORTIGOZA, VIRIDIANA ALEJANDRA; 420889; Rodríguez Salvador, Marisela; emipsanchez; Tejada Ortigoza, Viridiana Alejandra; Hernández Brenes, Carmen; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus MonterreyIn the potato processing industry, specifically in potato chip manufacturing, potato peel is one of the main byproducts. Potato peel needs to be treated and managed properly to prevent environmental damage and promote economic growth through its use by innovating traditional processes, technologies, and products. In this context, Competitive Technology Intelligence (CTI) is a tool that provides relevant knowledge to support decision-making and strategic planning, that can create value in potato peel processing. For this reason, this thesis applied a CTI methodology using scientometric, patentometric, and product market analysis to reveal scientific and technological developments in potato peel byproduct. A Global Query was developed by an iterative process with expert feedback to retrieve scientific documents and published patents from renowned databases, published from January 1st, 2018, to April 30th, 2023. After deduplication and a manual verification process, 393 scientific publications and 82 published patents were collected. The publications were manually classified based on the publication focus in three main categories: Application, Process, and Economic Analysis. The growth kinetics, top journals and countries, and number of citations were determined. Market information was gathered from renowned databases and customer needs, industry development, and potato peel products on the market were identified. Potato peel identified applications were as a substrate, adsorbent, biopolymer, antioxidant, agriculture component, animal and insect feed, and functional ingredient. The main processing techniques were bioactive compounds and biopolymers extraction and pretreatment. The most prolific countries from scientific documents were India, Egypt, and China, and the intellectual property (IP) offices with the most published patents were China National Intellectual Property Administration, World Intellectual Property Organization, and Intellectual Property India. Potato peel research publication rate was affected by global COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, consumers desire to lower their environmental impact and need products that are plastic-free, benefit their health, and help them to adapt to harsh weather conditions. In addition, there is a need to promote the term upcycle since many consumers are not familiarized with it, and the ones who do relate it with reducing waste.
- 4d printing research trends and applications in the medical field: a scientometric analysis(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2022-07-28) Padilla Aguirre, Karen Marcela; RODRIGUEZ SALVADOR, MARISELA; 20562; Rodríguez Salvador, Marisela; emijzarate, emipsanchez; Urbina Coronado, Pedro Daniel; Elizondo Noriega, Armando; Escuela de Ingeniería y Ciencias; Campus MonterreyInnovation plays a key role on a company’s either success or failure. But innovation is not just the creating or adopting new technologies; it is also directly connected with a solid strategic planning. Competitive technology intelligence is based on the systematic and ethical process of gathering, analyzing and transforming information into actionable knowledge. It aims to support decision making and strategic planning, because the knowledge produced by this methodology constitutes an early warning for research, development and innovation [19]. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is a technique of additive manufacturing that has revolutionized engineering, product design and manufacturing, as it allows the rapid conversion of digital 3D model information into physical static objects [45]. However, in the last few years a new possibility has been introduced to add ’time’ as a new dimension to create 4D printing. The medical field keeps changing and progressing at a high speed with new technologies emerging every day. 4D printing on the medical field is an area where it is necessary to provide decision makers with an overview of technological knowledge that helps them generate innovation opportunities. On this thesis, a Competitive technology intelligence approach was executed to identify trends in 4D printing technologies applied to the medical field, in order to provide relevant information through a technological landscape to support decision makers to uncover innovation opportunities. The results of the analysis revealed that most of the research developed is on the materials category, which relates completely to the fact that smart materials are the key difference between 3D and 4D printing. Most of the researches focus on shape memory polymers, hydrogels and liquid crystal elastomers. On the processes category researched is focused on the physical configuration of the printing model, printing parameters and adapting machines to modify the printing configurations. As for the applications, three main subcategories were identified, hollow tubes/stents, tissue engineering and drug delivery. According to the growth kinetics it is a field that although is fairly new, keeps growing and will keep gaining attention.
- Revealing a knowledge landscape on sustainable alternatives for plastic materials in takeaway food packaging(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2021-12-03) Oviedo González, María Marcela; RODRIGUEZ SALVADOR, MARISELA; 20562; Rodríguez Salvador, Marisela; puemcuervo; Takeda Toda, Naoko; Muñiz Rivera, Gerardo; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus MonterreyPlastics have been among the most commonly used materials for food packaging solutions, especially in the takeaway sector because of their convenient features such as flexibility, low cost of production, their durability and most importantly they keep their edible contents safe and in a good state (British Plastics Federation, 2021). Nevertheless, in the last decade, as the use of plastics in takeaway food packaging has risen, the amount of waste and pollution has created a negative impact on the environment (Takeaway Packaging, 2021). The purpose of this thesis will focus on revealing sustainable alternatives for plastic materials in takeaway food packaging, to generate a knowledge landscape for decision making. The application of Competitive and Technology Intelligence (Rodriguez- Salvador, et.al., 2017) strategically evaluates science and technology to reveal the current global trends as well as the most prolific countries and organizations to obtain opportunities for innovation, while enabling the inclusion of diverse analytical methods to enrich the information analysis process. Thus, the Design Futures’ Design Fiction (Kelleher & Byrne, 2015) approach was incorporated in this process to better understand the situations behind the research foci, creating speculation on how the future of alternatives for plastic materials in takeaway food packaging applications could preferably be and how it might be attainable, facilitating the decision-making process. The information resources for this thesis were scientific publication records from SCOPUS and Web of Science database platforms that ran from Jan. 1st, 2017, to Nov. 5th, 2021. A sub-categorization of sustainable alternatives to plastic materials in takeaway food packaging was made to perform a thorough search: “Paper & Cardboard”, “Metals”, “Natural Fibers” and “Biodegradable Polymers”. These are the current material solutions available on the market. Competitive and Technology Intelligence revealed the current global trends on sustainable alternatives for plastics in takeaway food packaging as well as the most prolific countries and organizations in terms of developing scientific research. China and Malaysia are the top publication countries. Educational Institutions are leading the research on sustainable material alternatives for plastics, The Universiti Putra Malaysia (Malaysia) is the top affiliation with most published articles in this field. Experts interviewed agreed that the sole practice of replacing plastic materials in single-use takeaway food packaging is not enough to tackle the current plastic pollution problem, as a recycling culture needs to be practiced at home, “users who consume food packaging and do not discard it properly are the problem”. The utilization of the Design Fiction scope through the employment of the Affinity Diagram by Design Futures’ Contextual Design Fiction (Holtzblatt K. & Beyer H., 2014), helped to better understand the situations behind the research foci for the 4 sub-categories and to create speculation on how the future of sustainable alternatives for plastic materials in takeaway food packaging applications could preferably be and how it might be attainable. It also helped to imagine undesirable future pathways as a way of avoiding failure in the near future by addressing the information obtained from research through Competitive and Technology Intelligence. Long-term sustainability must assess the elimination of waste products and the integration into the circular economy to comply with regulations set by the European Union, which will represent a pivotal decision-making asset to consider when launching new sustainable alternatives to plastic food packaging solutions on the market. Further assessments on the disposal behaviors within society should be made, as well as takeaway food packaging needs to lengthen the time they are used rather than being disposed. The findings of this thesis help the decision-making process of food industry stakeholders and R&D to support initiatives and applications of alternatives for takeaway food packing. The strategic vision obtained from the Competitive Technology Intelligence-Design Fiction approach can be further explored by researchers as a guide to reveal advances in other areas of study.
- Application of competitive technology intelligence on HVAC systems for green buildings(Instituto Tecnológico y de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey, 2020-12-01) Benavides Reyes, Victor Manuel; RODRIGUEZ SALVADOR, MARISELA; 20562; Rodríguez Salvador, Marisela; qrotbecerra/puemcuervo; Romero Díaz, David Carlos; Ugalde Hernández, Alan; School of Engineering and Sciences; Campus Monterrey; Morales Menéndez, RubénDuring the last two decades, Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) power consumption have been approximately 50% of the total utilized in the building and construction sector, which equivalent to 10-20% of the total energy consumed worldwide (Perez-Lombard et al., 2011). The global need to optimize operation costs, save energy, and develop more sustainable offices, is driving the development of new technology trends with more sustainable and climate benefits. These trends are generating new codes and regulations applied to these areas, where federal agencies and municipalities offer economic incentives that make investments in green buildings more attractive. The objective of this thesis is to explore existing technology trends focused on energy efficiency, indoor air quality, ventilation, and sustainability, using a Competitive Technology Intelligence (CTI) methodology to identify the key drivers on energy consumption and discover opportunities to innovate towards more efficient systems. This methodology provides insight into opportunity areas such as integrated systems design and innovation in software that allows better flexibility in maintaining the required energy, air management, comfort levels, indoor air quality, and sustainability. Energy demand on HVAC systems varies according to season and climate zone; depending on design and configuration, different applications in several cases might reach up to 21% annual energy savings (Vakiloroaya et al., 2014). Based on a study on cost analysis and technical evaluations, the return of investment values for HVAC systems applications might oscillate between 2 -11 years (in the best scenario) in terms of energy consumption benefits (Marino & Minichiello, 2015). They also may have other benefits, such as the possibility of using renewable energy sources, improving indoor air quality, creating a clean and healthy environment, and low CO2 emissions.
