A single amino acid able to promote high-temperature ring-opening polymerization by dual activation
(Wiley, 2024-04)
Amino acids are indispensable compounds in the body, performing several biological processes that enable proper functioning. In this work, it is demonstrated that a single amino acid, taurine, is also able to promote the ...
Joint effects of warming and salinization on instream leaf litter decomposition assessed through a microcosm experiment
(Springer, 2024)
Stream ecosystem functioning is often impaired by warming and salinization, but the joint effect of both environmental stressors on key processes such as leaf litter decomposition is virtually unknown, particularly in the ...
Use of Temperature Controlled Stage Confocal Raman Microscopy to Study Phase Transition of Lead Dioxide (Plattnerite)
(MDPI, 2020-05-21)
The present work concerns the study of the phase transition of plattnerite [β-PbO2 lead (IV) oxide]-based samples when they are analysed by Raman spectroscopy. The laser-induced degradation process was carried out either ...
Toward digitalization of fishing vessels to achieve higher environmental and economic sustainability
(ACS, 2024)
Fishing vessels need to adapt to and mitigate climate changes, but solution development requires better information about the environment and vessel operations. Even if ships generate large amounts of potentially useful ...
Relationship between the dynamics of volatile aroma compounds and microbial succession during the ripening of raw ewe milk-derived Idiazabal cheese
(Elsevier, 2023)
Cheese microbiota contributes to various biochemical processes that lead to the formation of volatile compounds and the development of flavour during ripening. Nonetheless, the role of these microorganisms in volatile aroma ...
Optical fiber interferometer for temperature-independent refractive index measuring over a broad range
(Elsevier, 2021-07)
The present work relates to manufacturing of a simple interferometric optical fiber refractometer that features broad refractive index measuring range without ambiguity. The device consists of a cylindrical polymer cavity ...
Temperature dependence of the rate coefficient of formation of CN radical from C + NH
(Elsevier, 2021-05)
Rate coefficients of the complex-forming C + NHH + CN reaction have been calculated at temperatures ranging from 5 K to 800 K using quasi-classical trajectories on a potential energy surface which accurately describes the ...
Goppa codes over the p-adic integers and integers modulo pe
(Elsevier, 2022-12)
Goppa codes were defined by Valery D. Goppa in 1970. In 1978, Robert J. McEliece used this family of error-correcting codes in his cryptosystem, which has gained popularity in the last decade due to its resistance to attacks ...
Conditioning the volatile stream from biomass fast pyrolysis for the attenuation of steam reforming catalyst deactivation
(Elsevier, 2022-03)
The fast deactivation of the reforming catalyst greatly conditions H2 production from biomass. In order to alleviate this problem, use of conditioning catalysts in a previous conditioning step has been proposed to modify ...
A feasibility study of the installation of a modular bioreactor inside a chemical scrubber at a wastewater treatment plant
(Elsevier, 2021-03)
Chemical scrubbing and biofiltration are well-established technologies for treating contaminated pollutants generated at wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Nevertheless, the growing need to reduce the ecological footprint ...
