Reconfiguring Fresh Produce Supply Chains in Response to Drought Risk: Evidence From the U.S. Broccoli Market

open access: yesAgribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drought is among the most severe and persistent threats to food supply chains, and relocating production to less drought‐prone regions offers a strategy to reduce this risk. This is particularly relevant for fresh vegetables, which are highly water‐intensive, yet drought‐driven reconfiguration strategies remain understudied.

Magnetic field‐assisted concentration swing adsorption for CO2 capture over Fe3O4/fibrous nanosilica‐PEI adsorbent

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Magnetic field‐assisted concentration swing adsorption (CSA) provides an electrification‐compatible alternative to conventional temperature swing adsorption (TSA) by enabling rapid heating/cooling and energy‐efficient regeneration under near‐isothermal conditions, thereby eliminating the need for sensible heat input.

Structured sorbents for Direct Air Capture: The impact of materials and chemicals on performance

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Structured sorbents can efficiently process large air volumes required for Direct Air Capture (DAC), but their broad implementation is limited by challenges in producing reproducible and homogeneous materials. This work presents a robust procedure to graft amines onto monolithic sorbents and systematically investigates how CO2$$ {\mathrm{CO ...

Exploring Quantum Support Vector Regression for Predicting Hydrogen Storage Capacity of Nanoporous Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
In this study we employed support vector regressor and quantum support vector regressor to predict the hydrogen storage capacity of metal–organic frameworks using structural and physicochemical descriptors. This study presents a comparative analysis of classical support vector regression (SVR) and quantum support vector regression (QSVR) in predicting ...
