Source-sink processes of marine black carbon in the context of "carbon neutrality"

open access: yes地质科技通报
Objective Black carbon is a carbonaceous mixture formed by the incomplete combustion of biomass and fossil fuels. Since black carbon has a high carbon content and an aromatized molecular structure, it can persist in the natural environment, suggesting ...

Dissolved black carbon in Antarctic lakes: Chemical signatures of past and present sources

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2016
The perennially ice‐covered, closed‐basin lakes in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica, serve as sentinels for understanding the fate of dissolved black carbon from glacial sources in aquatic ecosystems.

Detection and Classification of Volatile Organic Amines and Carboxylic Acids Using Arrays of Carbon Black-Dendrimer Composite Vapor Detectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Carbon black-insulator composite chemiresistive vapor detectors have been prepared using dendrimers as the polymeric constituent of the composite. Amino-terminated dendrimer-carbon black composites exhibited an enhancement in detection sensitivity of ∼10^

Cell wall target fragment discovery using a low‐cost, minimal fragment library

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
LoCoFrag100 is a fragment library made up of 100 different compounds. Similarity between the fragments is minimized and 10 different fragments are mixed into a single cocktail, which is soaked to protein crystals. These crystals are analysed by X‐ray crystallography, revealing the binding modes of the bound fragment ligands.

The carbonaceous concrete based on sawdust [PDF]

open access: yesНанотехнологии в строительстве, 2015
Today there are many requirements for strength, ecology and economy of produced concretes. The authors of the paper study attenuation of electromagnetic radiation of carbonaceous powders in the concrete composition. Carbon black was selected as a carbon

Reducing Black Carbon from Wood Burning in Fairbanks, Alaska [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Fairbanks, Alaska has been home to air quality concerns for years. Heat sources like wood boilers emit black carbon, a pollutant akin to soot. In Fairbanks\u27s harsh winters, black carbon is trapped close to the earth and creates health problems for ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

Production of Carbon Black in Turbulent Spray Flames of Coal Tar Distillates

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Conventional carbon black production occurs by pyrolysis after heavy aromatic feedstock is injected into the post-combustor region of furnace black reactors. The current work examines the conversion of the coal tar distillate in turbulent spray flames to

A methionine‐lined active site governs carbocation stabilization and product specificity in a bacterial terpene synthase

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals a unique active site enriched in methionine residues and demonstrates that these residues play a critical role by stabilizing carbocation intermediates through novel sulfur–cation interactions. Structure‐guided mutagenesis further revealed variants with significantly altered product profiles, enhancing pseudopterosin formation. These

Interfacial solar steam generator by MWCNTs/carbon black nanoparticles coated wood

open access: yesAlexandria Engineering Journal, 2023
In order to further improve the efficiency of radiation steam generation and the stability in practical application, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/carbon black nanoparticles were used to coat the delignified wood cross section.
