Energy Technology, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.Heat‐pump charging of Carnot batteries with zeotropic large temperature glide CO2–alkane mixtures enables charging from ambient to ≈398.15 K with improved heat‐exchanger temperature matching at moderate pressure ratios. The highest COP occurs near xCO2 ≈ 0.15, whereas cost and throttling losses rise monotonically with CO2 content; butane isomers ...

Theoretical Investigation on the Properties of R744/R290 Mixtures
Procedia Engineering, 2017 Abstract At present, an interesting research is to find promising environmentally-friendly refrigerants in auto-cascade refrigeration cycle. This paper proposed a refrigerant mixture of R744 and R290 due to its zero ozone depletion potential and negligible global warming potential.

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 2, March/April 2026.ABSTRACT The growing impacts of climate change and energy scarcity demand environmentally sustainable refrigeration solutions. This study investigates eco‐friendly refrigerants (R152a, R290 and R600a) and their optimized ternary mixture as alternatives to R134a. Four blend compositions were analysed using experimental testing and REFPROP 10.0 modelling

The FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 1, Page 196-219, January 2026.We revealed the crystal structure of eKatE from atypical E. coli. eKatE exhibits a hydrogen‐peroxide‐sensitive major channel, a stabilized dimeric interface, an unusual covalent bond between C392 and Y415, and other distinctive features. These structural features contribute to its enhanced catalase activity compared to KatE in typical E.
