Characterization of various zinc oxide catalysts and their activity in the dehydration-dehydrogenation of isobutanol [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2008
Mono and bifunctional zinc oxide catalysts were prepared to study their activity in the catalytic conversion of isobutanol. The prepared catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis and nitrogen adsorption measurements.

Enhanced light olefins production via n-pentane cracking using modified MFI catalysts

open access: yesHeliyon, 2022
n-pentane catalytic cracking was studied over a series of MFI zeolites with varying SiO2/Al2O3 ratios (30, 80, 280, 500, and 1500) using a fixed-bed reactor operated at temperature 550–650 °C.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Life cycle assessment of Libyan crude oil [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Petroleum products such as petrol and diesel are fossil fuels and have a high environmental impact. There is a demand to minimize these impacts especially in the upstream and midstream oil operations, i.e. exploration, production and refining processes,

Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

Assessment of the Active Sludge Microorganisms Population During Wastewater Treatment in a Micro-Pilot Plant

open access: yesBioengineering
Knowledge of the impact of chemicals on the environment is important for assessing the risks that chemicals can generate in ecosystems. With the help of pilot-scale micro-tests, it was possible to evaluate the biological sludge in terms of its chemical ...
