Emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) as Safety Indicators in the Development of Wood-Based Binderless Boards

Applied Sciences
Wood-based panels are ubiquitous in our daily lives, both as building materials and as furnishing materials. Numerous studies have revealed that these materials emit volatile organic compounds, such as formaldehyde, into indoor air, which can be harmful ...

Thermally Processable, Transparent, Mechanically Tunable and Robust Bioplastics From Wastepaper

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Unlike conventional inefficient or low‐value wastepaper recycling, a directional transformation strategy is employed to convert whole wastepaper into intact bioplastics with tunable mechanical properties in our work. These bioplastics can be processed into flexible bags or rigid containers and exhibit high transparency, water resistance, repairability,

Preparation of TiO2 nanoparticles by Sol-Gel route

International Journal of Photoenergy, 2003
Nanosized titanium oxide (TiO2) powders were prepared by emulsification-gelation technology, hydrolysis and reflux process. Starting precursor (Tetraisopropylorthotitanate Ti(OC3H7)4) was modified by 1,4 cyclohexane diol (C6H14O2), hydrogen peroxide ...

The social life cycle assessment of food delivery in Italy. Evaluating frameworks for the integration of ecosystem services (ESs) in life cycle methodologies

, 2023
Although food delivery (FD) has been widespread since the last century, recent social and health changes have accelerated its growth, leading to the structuring of companies and order fulfillment systems.

Accounting for Substitution: Improving Estimates of GHG Reductions From Cattle‐Based Product Demand Shifts

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Estimates of reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from lower demand for cattle‐based products must account for substitution effects. This study collected data through two surveys—one on ground beef and another on dairy milk—to evaluate substitution effects and potential GHG reductions.

Asking the 5 W's for designing next‐generation bioprocessing

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Biotechnology is expanding beyond traditional, centralized fermentation and toward next‐generation bioprocessing paradigms that emphasize flexible deployment outside the laboratory with application‐specific performance. However, many bioprocesses fail to translate beyond proof‐of‐concept into industrially viable systems because early design ...

Physicochemical Characterization and Asymmetric Catalytic Properties of New Biobased Organocatalytic Surfactants

Molecules
In organic synthesis, the solvent is the chemical compound that represents the largest proportion of the process. However, conventional solvents are often toxic and dangerous for the environment, and an interesting alternative is to replace them by water.
