Hevea brasiliensis seeds: A novel sustainable feedstock for ethanol production

Vietnam Journal of Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract The rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is cultivated on a large scale mainly for the extraction of latex in Brazil and Southeast Asia, also generating large quantities of seeds. These seeds currently do not have large‐scale applications and may thus be considered as a residue.

RETRACTED: Can the chemical industry solve the climate change?On the role of human energy production, renewable energies, and the potential of chemistry as a solution provider

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, Volume 98, Issue 3, Page 98-105, March 2026.
Let us consider an alternative perspective on climate change: The sum of solar radiation and heat generated by human activity result in a net energy input of 1.96 times that of the Sun on the Earth's surface. The expanding global population is expected to exacerbate this issue. Potential solutions are proposed, including replacement and heat recycling.

Thermodynamic Modeling of R2O–V2O5 Systems (R = Li, Na, K, Rb, and Cs) With Key Experimental Study and Its Applications

Materials Genome Engineering Advances, Volume 4, Issue 1, March 2026.
(1) Stable phases in the R2O–V2O5 system were confirmed. (2) Phase equilibrium and transition were experimentally measured. (3) A thermodynamic model was developed for the system. ABSTRACT Key phase diagram studies of Li2O–V2O5, K2O–V2O5, and Rb2O–V2O5 systems were conducted using X‐ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis within Pt crucibles.
