With increasing global climate change, integrated concepts to innovate sustainable structures that can multiaxially address CO2 mitigation are crucial. Here, we fabricate a functional wood structure with enhanced mechanical performance via top-down approach incorporating high-performance metal-organic framework (MOF), Calgary 20 (CALF-20). The 10% (w/w) CALF-20 capture an overall gravimetric capacity of 0.45 mmol/g at 1 bar and 303 K scales linearly the MOF loading. Interestingly, surpasses...

The requirement of concentrated carbon dioxide (CO2 ) feedstock significantly limits the economic feasibility electrochemical CO2 reduction (eCO2 R) which often involves multiple intermediate processes, including capture, energy-intensive regeneration, compression, and transportation. Herein, a bifunctional gas diffusion electrode (BGDE) for separation eCO2 R from low-concentration stream is reported. BGDE demonstrated selective production ethylene (C2 H4 by combining...

Abstract Reducing carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions is a critical environmental challenge. Capturing CO by solid polyethylenimine (PEI) sorbents proposed as strategy to address this concern. The forms carbamates with the amine groups on sorbent. However, PEI are unstable under O ‐containing flue gas streams, property that has greatly limited their industrial importance. To combat ‐sensitivity, amount of desorbed per cycle reduced protect amines formed carbamates. These sufficiently reduce...

Abstract Interlayer decoupling plays an essential role in realizing unprecedented properties atomically thin materials, but it remains relatively unexplored the bulk. It is unclear how to realize a large crystal that behaves as its monolayer counterpart by artificial manipulation. Here, we construct superlattice consisting of alternating layers NbSe 2 and highly porous hydroxide, proof principle for interlayer bulk materials. In (NaOH) 0.5 , electric manifested ideal 1D insulating state...

Abstract Plastic waste (PW) from textile and construction industries is rarely recycled due to the lack of economical effective commercial recycling technologies. In this work, PW these two sources successfully converted into a microporous sorbent that highly selective carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) adsorption. The synthesis achieved by pyrolysis in presence potassium salt activator. properties can be tuned changing parent plastic type get varying degrees microporosity, surface area, nitrogen...
