Ideal Molecular Sieving with a Dense MOF for Helium Upgrading with Highly Diffusion Selective Mixed Matrix Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The separation of Helium gas from natural gas is challenging but highly important. MIL‐116(Ga), a “non‐porous” metal–organic framework is used as a molecular sieve to separate He from CH4. Druse‐like MIL‐116(Ga) particles are integrated into polysulfone mixed matrix membranes.

Increasing wood fuel processing efficiency by fine-tuning chipper settings

open access: yesFuel Processing Technology, 2016
Latest chipper models feature new in-feed and evacuation systems that can be adjusted on the fly to match variable work conditions. Proper adjustments of the two systems are expected to produce significant effects in terms of productivity, diesel fuel consumption and chip quality. The study verified such claims by testing one of these new machines in a
