Photocatalysis has proved its potential in cleaving the Cβ-O linkages between natural aromatic units lignin biomass and converting abundant to valuable monomer products. However, slow reaction rate low selectivity for monomers still hinder future industrial implementation. To address these challenges photocatalytic bond fragmentation, a Zn/S rich phase zinc indium sulfide photocatalyst was developed promote hydrogenolysis of lignin. In this work, water is first time, used as hydrogen donor...

Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67 (ZIF-67) has been used in a variety of applications including catalysis, separations, and energy storage. However, the weak hydrostability ZIF-67, due to structural hydrolysis degradation, dramatically limits their applicability after aqueous exposure. In this work, cosolvent-stabilized superhydrophobic, highly hydrostable ZIF-67 was synthesized at room temperature using facile, one-pot hydrothermal synthesis route, effect cosolvent concentration on crystal...

Post-combustion carbon capture is a key component of the fight against global warming and climate change. Amine stripping currently leading post-combustion technology, indeed employed at World’s first only commercial scale project applied to power plant, Boundary Dam, Canada. Normally, regeneration spent amine solution achieved by with hot pressurized steam, around 120–140 °C 1–2 bar. However, production these conditions costly leads significant degradation amine. Moreover, size equipment,...

This work presents an economic and simple method to manufacture low cost, but effective adsorbents for CO2 capture through impregnating DETA a porous silica gel. The results have demonstrated that the cost gel impregnated by molecular-weight amine is stable very well at temperature up 130 °C. developed adsorbent has fast adsorption kinetics can be regenerated temperature. will significantly reduce energy used desorb CO2, therefore penalty. effect of loading on textural properties, thermal...
