Assessment of the potential carbon footprint of engineered processes for the mineral carbonation of PGM tailings [PDF]
International Journal of Greenhouse Gas Control, 2018 Abstract The engineered sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions through mineral carbonation typically requires energy intensive conditions and chemical reagents to accelerate the naturally slow reaction processes. In order to be an effective carbon dioxide mitigation strategy, engineered mineral carbonation processes have to result in a net ...

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.
