Organellar carbon metabolism is co-ordinated with distinct developmental phases of secondary xylem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Subcellular compartmentation of plant biosynthetic pathways in the mitochondria and plastids requires coordinated regulation of nuclear encoded genes, and the role of these genes has been largely ignored by wood researchers. In this study, we constructed

Utilization of Waste Materials Using the Müller–Kühne Process—A Life Cycle Inventory Study

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
This study presents a Life Cycle Inventory of the Müller–Kühne process (MKP), which converts gypsum waste into sulfuric acid and cement clinker. The MKP outperforms conventional cement production regarding material yield, though its specific energy demand is higher. Consequently, potentials for circular gypsum waste utilization are discussed.

Potential for monetisation and utilisation of wood raw material from pioneer tree species stands in the Czech Republic

open access: yesJournal of Forest Science
Pioneer tree species in the Czech Republic include birch, alder and aspen. From an economic point of view, birch seems to be the most promising. Greater use of timber from pioneer tree species in higher value-added products is currently limited by the ...

Snowpack properties vary in response to burn severity gradients in montane forests

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2019
Wildfires are altering ecosystems globally as they change in frequency, size, and severity. As wildfires change vegetation structure, they also alter moisture inputs and energy fluxes which influence snowpack and hydrology.

In Situ Methanation on Mars: A Process Concept Study on the Impact of H2/CO2 and Recycle Ratio

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The rocket propellant methane can be produced on Mars by in situ resource utilization. The H2/CO2 ratio is decisive, and excess H2 is favored for providing sufficient propellant purity. The operation mode—with or without recycling of unreacted reactants—depends on the resource availability of the selected landing site. Abstract For return missions from

Integration of High‐p, Low‐T CO2 Electrolysis with Pressure Swing Adsorption Purification

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
We evaluate a high‐p low‐T CO2 electrolysis (LTCE) cell with a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) to compare cascade vs. recycle operation. Although a cascade yields high CO selectivity but limited yield, a full recycle achieves near‐quantitative CO production, highlighting gas recycling as essential for LTCE/PSA systems.
