How Plants May Maintain Protein Homeostasis Under Rising Atmospheric CO2

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular plants may employ several physiological mechanisms to stabilize their protein contents as atmospheric CO2 concentrations change over a day, year, decade, or century. One mechanism is that plants may rely more on soil ammonium as their nitrogen source when CO2 increases.

Techno‐economic analysis for hydroxy acids production from waste cellulose via alkaline digestion

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 904-914, April 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Alkaline digestion offers a promising route for converting low‐grade cellulosic wastes into valuable hydroxy carboxylic acids (HAs). However, the feasibility of producing HAs at process scale, particularly the influence of reactor design on product yields, energy demand, and production costs, remains less explored.
