Material Limitations and Processing Challenges of Bio‐Based Thermoplastics: A Review

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This review highlights recent advances in bio‐based thermoplastic polymers (b‐bTPs), focusing on their composition, formulation challenges, and industrial applications. Key aspects include the use of additives and blends to improve performance, microcellular injection molding techniques, and the recyclability of b‐bTPs foams.

The anatomical knowledge of Namibian school children

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The public has limited knowledge of key organs and anatomical structures. The lack of anatomical knowledge and understanding can hinder time to access healthcare, quality of care, and treatment outcomes. The current study investigated the anatomical knowledge among Namibian children by comparing 8 school grades—4 to 12, which covers children ...

Combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and adding red mud as a secondary catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming of digestate

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This work studies the combined effect of increasing the post‐reformer temperature and introducing red mud as a support catalyst in the thermocatalytic reforming (TCR®) of digestate. The TCR® method, developed by the Fraunhofer Institute for Environmental, Safety and Energy Technology UMSICHT (abbreviated as Fraunhofer UMSICHT), is an extension

Volumetric mass transfer and dilution rate as key parameters for sustainable industrial syngas fermentation to isopropyl alcohol: modeling and parametric assessment

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Synthesis gas fermentation is a promising route for the valorization of steel mill off‐gas and for replacing conventional fossil‐based isopropyl alcohol (IPA) production. A recent 120 L pilot‐scale study reported 85% gas conversion at 90% product selectivity and claimed a negative global warming potential (GWP) without detailed process design.

Potential contribution of biomass gasification‐based technology in energy transition: a technical review coupled with bibliometric studies

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biomass gasification technology has been extensively researched around the world; however, there is a need to evaluate the current research landscape and evolutionary direction of research in the broader context of energy transition. A systematic bibliometric analysis of the Web of Science database was performed for articles that fall within ...

Market potential of biobased chemicals: a qualitative network analysis of adoption dynamics in South Africa’s bioeconomy

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The premise of a bioeconomy is the replacement of nonrenewable and unsustainable fossil‐derived resources and associated technologies with more sustainable alternatives. The adoption of biobased chemicals contributes toward the growth of a bioeconomy and is dependent on market and industry requirements.
