Household-scale anaerobic digestion of food waste—a community case study from Bozeman, Montana

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems
IntroductionOne-third of food in the United States is wasted, creating significant environmental and social challenges which anaerobic digestion (AD) can address by converting that waste into a nutrient-rich digestate suitable for use as a biofertilizer.

The effect of temperature and retention time on methane production and microbial community composition in staged anaerobic digesters fed with food waste

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2017
BackgroundFood waste is a large bio-resource that may be converted to biogas that can be used for heat and power production, or as transport fuel. We studied the anaerobic digestion of food waste in a staged digestion system consisting of separate ...

Photoresponsive Gas‐Permeable Membranes: Fundamentals, Innovations, and Prospects

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Photoresponsive gas‐permeable membranes can be potentially used for smart packing, carbon capture, hydrogen purification, and optical gas valves due to their remote and non‐contact activation, precise spatial and temporal control, and reversible switching capabilities.

Reconfigurable Microenvironments Uncover Mechano‐Sensing Timescales and Direct Cell Polarity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A synthetic DNA‐crosslinked cell culture matrix enables control over the mechanical microenvironment surrounding cells. Independent tuning of stiffness and stress relaxation uncovers distinct timescales of mechano‐sensing that regulate cell behavior.
