“…In the third place is the ARR and IRR is the least used and trusted method by the Palestinian corporations. The above result is aligned by many literature mentioned above such as Pšunder (2012), Shinoda (2010), Khamees et al (2010) and Brijlal and Quesada (2009). On the other hand, many of previous literature have an opposite result such Ryan and Ryan (2002), Kengathran (2016), Shaban et al (2017) and El-Daour and Abushaaban (2013).…”

This research paper aims to find the degree of the use as well as the trust of the Net Present Value (NPV), Payback Period (PBP), Internal Rate of Returns (IRR) and Accounting Rate of Returns (ARR) as a key capital budgeting method. The research conducted on the listed corporations in Palestine which are 48 company. A questionnaire distributed on 77 financial and project/operations managers in these corporations with 67 responds.

“…A gas fan at the feed end pulls air through the kiln. The air leaving the kiln is sent to a cyclone to remove coarse particles (<1 mm), and then to a baghouse for removal of finer particles (<30 m) before being released to the atmosphere (Pšunder, 2012). The preoxidized fine chromite ore (OC) is then discharged into a bunker and transported to the prereduction raw material storage heaps.…”

“…According to Hitch and Dipple (2012), it is fairly simple to appraise a project in terms of revenue versus cost; however, it is imperative to consider the time value of money and the influence that substantial upfront capital costs may have. Pšunder (2012) pointed out that the use of DCF methods for engineering project evaluation has increased significantly in the last few decades. Financial analysis through DCF modelling is currently the most commonly used methodology for appraising potential investments, due to its ability to quantify the added value to shareholders (Hitch and Dipple, 2012).…”

Since hydrogel therapies have been introduced into clinic treatment procedures, the biomedical industry has to face the technology transfer and the scale-up of the processes. This will be key in the roadmap of the new technology implementation. Transfer technology and scale-up are already known for some applications but other applications, such as 3D printing, are still challenging. Decellularized tissues offer a lot of advantages when compared to other natural gels, for example they display enhanced biological properties, due to their ability to preserve natural molecules. For this reason, even though their use as a source for bioinks represents a challenge for the scale-up process, it is very important to consider the advantages that originate with overcoming this challenge. Therefore, many aspects that influence the scaling of the industrial process should be considered, like the addition of drugs or cells to the hydrogel, also, the gelling process is important to determine the chemical and physical parameters that must be controlled in order to guarantee a successful process. Legal aspects are also crucial when carrying out the scale-up of the process since they determine the industrial implementation success from the regulatory point of view. In this context, the new law Regulation (EU) 2017/745 on biomedical devices will be considered. This review summarizes the different aspects, including the legal ones, that should be considered when scaling up hydrogels of natural origin, in order to balance these different aspects and to optimize the costs in terms of raw materials and engine.
