Bio‐Inspired Cascade Photocatalysis on Fe Single‐Atom Carbon Nitride Upcycles Plastic Wastes for Effective Acetic Acid Production

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a novel cascade photocatalysis concept using Fe single‐atom catalysts (Fe@C3N4 SAC) to directly upcycle plastics (PET, PP, PE, PVC) into valuable acetic acid at ambient conditions. Inspired by microbial degradation, the bifunctional cascade photocatalyst combines Fenton‐like oxidation and CO2 photoreduction, as validated by ...

Current Landscape: Use of Supercritical CO2 in the Wood Industry

Advanced Energy and Sustainability Research, EarlyView.
The application of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) to successfully dewater as well as extract resin from wood is becoming increasingly popular due to its greener and less energy‐intensive approach. With world focus shifting to developing methods with greater efficiency while decreasing harm to the environment, scCO2 applications have begun to set ...
