Evaluation of antimony availability in a mining context: Impact for the environment, and for mineral exploration and exploitation
(Elsevier, 2022-11-02)
This work aims to establish Sb mobility, its transfer to biota and its effect on soil health in a semi-arid climate. The results show the presence of stibnite (Sb2S3) as the main primary Sb compound, bindhemite (Pb2Sb2O6(O,OH)), ...
Lignin as a source of phenolic compounds: from lignin extraction to its transformtion by different routes.
(2020-01-29)
En la presente Tesis Doctoral el trabajo desarrollado se ha centrado en la extracción y caracterización de lignina procedente de diversos tipos de material residual lignocelulósico, como el bagazo y hojas de agave azul, ...
Fine-tune of lignin properties by its fractionation with a sequential organic solvent extraction
(Elsevier, 2022-01)
[EN] In this work, different lignins were obtained from two different extraction methods (kraft and organosolv) but from the same raw material (Eucalyptus globulus sp.). They were subsequently fractionated to determine the ...
Impact of the lignin type and source on the characteristics of physical lignin hydrogels
(Elsevier, 2022-04)
[EN] Multiple natural polymers have been investigated for the synthesis of hydrogels to the present date, but lignin has demonstrated to be a promising one for this purpose for the multiple advantages it offers. Lignin can ...
Physicochemical Characterization of Phase Change Materials for Industrial Waste Heat Recovery Applications
(MDPI, 2022-05-16)
The recovery and storage of process heat in industrial applications are some of the key factors to improve the sustainability and reliability of high temperature applications. In this sense, one of the main drawbacks is ...
Impact of ionic quantum fluctuations on the thermodynamic stability and superconductivity of LaBH8
(APS, 2022-10-19)
The recent prediction of a metastable high-symmetry Fm-3m phase of LaBH8 gives hopes to reach high superconducting critical temperatures at affordable pressures among ternary hydrogen-rich compounds. Making use of ...
Bayesian network-based over-sampling method (BOSME) with application to indirect cost-sensitive learning
(Nature, 2022-05)
Traditional supervised learning algorithms do not satisfactorily solve the classification problem on imbalanced data sets, since they tend to assign the majority class, to the detriment of the minority class classification. ...
Chemometrics and elemental mapping by portable LIBS to identify the impact of volcanogenic and non-volcanogenic degradation sources on the mural paintings of Pompeii
(Elsevier, 2021-05-03)
Crystallization of soluble salts is a common degradation phenomenon that threatens the mural paintings of Pompeii. There are many elements that contribute to the crystallization of salts on the walls of this archaeological ...
When Red Turns Black: Influence of the 79 AD Volcanic Eruption and Burial Environment on the Blackening/Darkening of Pompeian Cinnabar
(ACS, 2021-11-24)
It is widely known that the vivid hue of red cinnabar can darken or turn black. Many authors have studied this transformation, but only a few in the context of the archeological site of Pompeii. In this work, the co-occurrence ...
The origins of women's rights movement in the United States: the Seneca Falls Convention
(2020-05-25)
In the 19th century, women had very limited or almost inexistent rights. They lived in a male dominated world where they had restricted access to many fields and they were considered to be an ornament of their husband in ...
