Matrimid‐Derived Asymmetric Carbon Molecular Sieve Hollow Fibers With Engineered Ultramicropores for Precise Helium Separation

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Matrimid‐derived asymmetric carbon molecular sieve (CMS) hollow fibers enable ultraselective helium/methane (He/CH4) separation. Post‐pyrolysis hyperaging selectively tightens larger ultramicropores, enhancing He/CH4 discrimination while maintaining high He permeance.

Alternative Policy Designs to Help Farmers Select Profitable Conservation Practices

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Voluntary private carbon initiatives (VPCIs) promote the implementation of agricultural conservation practices that mitigate emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) via financial incentives to participating farmers. Simultaneously, an array of public policies supports the adoption of conservation practices through technical and financial ...
