Commercially Exploited Seaweed Species in Africa: Occurrences, Chemical Composition, Current Value Chain and Opportunities for Value Addition

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 18, Issue 4, September 2026.
Commercially exploited seaweed species in Africa, their biochemical composition, current uses, and value chain are reviewed. Potential value‐addition of seaweed is suggested regionally in Africa amongst countries producing similar seaweed species. ABSTRACT Africa has a wide range of coastal environments that support a diverse array of seaweed species ...

Rational Design of π‐Conjugated Polymers for Enantioselective Recognition of Amino Acids

Advanced Electronic Materials, Volume 12, Issue 15, 10 August 2026.
A family of conducting polymers is proposed for the enantioselective recognition of amino acids. The films are generated by electropolymerization of thiophene trimers containing chiral features, with the advantage that the polymerization can be induced at much lower overpotentials compared to classic thiophene monomers, thus avoiding parasitic ...

Study of dioxin levels in releases to the atmosphere from the use of secondary fuels in cement kilns during clinker formation

Revista Facultad de Ingeniería Universidad de Antioquia, 2005
The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of dioxins in the emission levels to the atmosphere by using some waste materials, such as used tires or meat meal, as secondary fuel during the production of clinker. For this purpose, three different

Synergistic Effects of Silica and Calcium‐Based Dual Admixtures on the Flowability, Microstructure, and Strength Development in Low‐Carbon Concrete

Applied Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Eco‐friendly construction practices have emerged as a cornerstone of modern development. Due to the substantial carbon emissions from cement production, there is a growing demand for supplementary cementitious materials. This study investigated the synergistic effects of two different wastes, silica‐rich rice husk ash (RHA) and calcium‐rich ...
