Organic farming: technology transfer (Environmental impact and soil fertility) (OF0405) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
This project covered two separate activities, but both were examples of technology transfer, relating to organic farming: 1. Developing a science-based report, which covered an assessment of the environmental impacts of organic farming. Defra’s Action

NiFe‐NO3 Layered Double Hydroxide as a Novel Anode for Sodium Ion Batteries

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 8, Issue 3, March 2025.
This study demonstrates, for the first time, the effectiveness of using LDH as an anodic material in SIB. The material is stable and show high specific capacity, the reaction mechanism has been thoroughly investigated and comprehensively described and involves a phase change reaction followed by sodium intercalation.

Fast‐Charging of Solid‐State Batteries Enabled by Functional Additives Infused into High‐Mass‐Loading Nickel Manganese Cobalt Cathodes

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, EarlyView.
Bottlebrush polymer additives offer a versatile and robust solution to the fundamental transport and contact challenges in all‐solid‐state lithium metal batteries. In this work, high mass loading nickel manganese cobalt cathodes with various polymer additives are prepared, and the electrochemical properties are investigated.

Slurry behaviour in separation devices [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Four different modelling approaches for slurry behaviour in cyclones are considered: bulk flow models, a simple continuum model, hydrodynamic models and so-called wet granular flow models.

Sustainable and cost‐effective process design for energy‐self‐sufficient ethyl lactate production from sugar mill feedstocks: a techno‐economic approach

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Bio‐based ethyl lactate (EL) can replace several fossil‐derived products owing to its low toxicity, high solvent functionality, and environmental advantages. This study assesses the techno‐economic viability and greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction potential of producing EL from sugarcane A‐molasses and lignocelluloses in an energy self‐sufficient ...

Effective acetalization of furfural catalyzed by Fe‐ and Co‐oxalates: impact of alcohols structure on products composition

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Fe‐, Co‐, and FeCo‐oxalates supported on silica gel (5 wt% metal load) were synthesized, characterized, and tested for the first time in solvent‐free furfural (FF) acetalization with C1–C8 alcohols at 70–170 °C under both conventional and microwave (MW)‐assisted conditions. The interaction of FF with linear C1–C4 alcohols yielded pincer‐shaped

Delivering on net zero: Scottish Agriculture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The aim of this study was to identify whether, how and at what cost agricultural GHG emissions in Scotland could be reduced by 35% by 2045. In 2017, Scottish agricultural GHG emissions were estimated to be 7.6 Mt CO2e making the 35% target 2.7 Mt CO2e ...

Valorization of paper sludge for bioethanol and biogas production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract This study evaluated the physicochemical properties and bioenergy potential of three distinct paper sludges: virgin pulp sludge (VP‐PS), corrugated cardboard sludge (CR‐PS), and tissue and printing paper sludge (TPR‐PS). From the experimental runs, VP‐PS exhibited the highest ethanol yield (46.8 ± 3.7 g L−1, 87.4% conversion), which can be ...

Beyond mammals: the evolution of chewing and other forms of oropharyngeal food processing in vertebrates

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...
