The Minimum Age of Criminal Responsibility Internationally—History, Systems and the Future

open access: yesCriminal Behaviour and Mental Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In most countries, a criminal conviction requires evidence that the individual committed the act and that they had the mental capacity to understand what they were doing and that it was wrong. Youth, as an indicator of brain development, is one factor affecting criminal capacity.

Metasurface Enhanced Photothermal Cement Foam for Robust and High‐Throughput Seawater Desalination

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Schematic of 3D metasurface‐enhanced cement foam for robust and high‐throughput seawater desalination. This study presents a cement‐based solar evaporator (CSE) fabricated in one step via viscoelastic lithography with simple negative pressure. In addition to boosting solar‐to‐vapor conversion efficiency via excellent light‐harvesting capacity, the ...

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...

Effect of soiling agents on disinfection efficacy of a pulsed‐xenon UV lamp towards Listeria monocytogenes on stainless steel surfaces

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This study quantifies the effects of different soils found in the food processing environment on the efficiency of pulsed‐xenon UV disinfection. Abstract Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne illness that poses a significant threat to human health in young, old, and immunocompromised persons and accordingly, prevention of Listeria contamination is of ...

Application of influence diagrams to multi‐objective allocation of firefighting resources in process plants

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Identification of firefighting strategies (i.e., which endangered units to suppress or cool first) in chemical and process plants falls under the domain of multi‐objective decision‐making (MODM), where not only the safety and integrity of the affected process plant but also the safety of on‐site and off‐site vulnerable targets matter.

Interfacial adsorption characteristics of surfactant‐modified nanoparticles: Equilibrium and dynamic effects of salinity at the oil–water interface

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Surfactant‐modified nanoparticles adsorb at the oil–water interface, enabling interfacial stabilization and microemulsion formation. Abstract This study systematically investigated the interfacial behaviour of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminium oxide (Al2O3) nanoparticles (NPs) functionalized with cationic (CTAB), anionic (SDS), and nonionic (Triton ...

Design and implementation of a 3D‐printed modular distillation tower for experimental teaching in chemical engineering

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Several authors have reported the disconnection between the skills, abilities, and attitudes of graduates from STEM careers with the current needs of the labour market. In science and engineering fields, research has found the need for interdisciplinary approaches that encourage meaningful learning.

Sensitivity analysis and stochastic optimization of levelized cost of hydrogen production through methane pyrolysis

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Hydrogen plays a crucial role across multiple industrial sectors and is increasingly recognized as a clean energy carrier with significant potential in decarbonization efforts. Methane pyrolysis (MP), particularly using molten metal catalysts, offers a promising pathway for hydrogen production with low CO2 emissions.
