Release of multicomponent pheromones from porous fibres
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Surface engineering empowers a polymer exclusion net to serve dual functions: physical exclusion and pheromonal release, allowing for pest control in agricultural crops. In previous work, a net woven from porous fibres releasing simple, single‐component alarm pheromones showed promising results in field tests.

Comparison of modelling approaches for liquid fluidized beds
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract This study presents a comparison of three promising numerical models for the detailed simulation of liquid–solid fluidized bed. These models differ in their treatment of the solid phase, ranging from treating each particle individually to treating the collection of particles as a continuum.
