Water injection as a way for pollution control

Energy Reports, 2021
The continuous development of internal combustion engines has been permanently limited by pollutant emissions. Hence, in Europe, EURO pollution norms have been implemented, and constantly updated, becoming more restrictive in order to minimize pollution ...

Functionalizing Micro‐to‐Mesoscopic Electrode Architectures for Regulating Electron Transfer Behaviors in Electrocatalysis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A systematic review is conducted to assess the influence of electrode architecture across micro‐ to mesoscopic length scales on electron‐transfer pathways in electrocatalysis. We discuss the structure‐activity relationships in electrocatalytic applications, including resource recovery and environmental remediation, and provide cost‐effective, efficient

Dimensionality‐Driven Interfacial Electronic Coupling in Carbon‐Supported Gd‐CuO Catalysts for Selective CO2 Electroreduction to Ethylene

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The 2D carbon‐supported Gd–CuO exhibits strong interfacial electronic coupling, abundant oxygen vacancies, and highly exposed active sites, enabling efficient CO enrichment and C─C coupling toward selective and durable CO2‐to‐C2H4 conversion. ABSTRACT Copper‐based catalysts are promising for electrochemical CO2 reduction toward value‐added chemicals ...

Characteristics and Mitigation Measures of Aircraft Pollutant Emissions at Nanjing Lukou International Airport (NKG), China

Promet (Zagreb), 2020
The assessment of local air pollution due to aircraft emissions at/near the airport is an important issue from the standpoint of environment and human health, but has not received due attention in China. In this paper, the pollutant emissions (i.e.

Photo‐Switchable Molecular Module Programming PET Biodegradation in Aquatic Environments

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We address the plastic durability paradox by integrating an itaconic acid–derived pyrrolidone module into polymer backbones. Sunlight in water triggers Norrish Type I ring‐opening and hydrophilization, enabling rapid biodegradation into nontoxic minerals.

The co-pollutant cost of carbon emissions: an analysis of the US electric power generation sector

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
Fossil fuel combustion releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere along with co-pollutants such as sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and others. These emissions result in environmental externalities primarily in terms of climate and air quality.

REGULATORY FEDERALISM AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF AIR POLLUTANT EMISSIONS* [PDF]

Journal of Regional Science, 2007
ABSTRACT Recent empirical work suggests that (i) incomes are converging through time, and (ii) income and pollution levels are linked. This paper weds these two literatures by examining the spatial and temporal distribution of pollution. After establishing that theoretical predictions about whether pollution will converge are critically linked to ...
