Carbon Energy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biochar has emerged as a useful and adaptable source of carbon for supercapacitor electrodes. Its value comes from the way biomass chemistry, thermal conversion, and activation conditions shape the resulting pore network, surface groups, and degree of carbon ordering.

Precision Chemistry for Protein Lysine Modification
Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.Selective modification of lysine residues is challenging due to their similar intrinsic reactivity. Inspired by enzymatic recognition, ligand‐guided electrophiles enable site‐selective labeling and functionalization, while ligand‐guided catalyses achieve regioselective installation of bio‐relevant post‐translational modifications.

Transient thermal modelling of green anode cooling in the aluminium industry
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Summary of the methodology. Abstract Anodes, which are used in electrolytic aluminium production, are made by mixing dry aggregate (petroleum coke, rejected anodes, and butts) with coal tar pitch, compacting the resulting paste (green anode), and baking (baked anode). After compaction, the anodes are cooled to maintain their structural integrity before

A‐optimal model‐based design of experiments for processes with uncertain inputs
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.Abstract Model‐based design of experiments (MBDoE) techniques are tools for selecting experimental conditions that enable accurate parameter estimation for mechanistic models. Most MBDoE approaches assume that the selected experimental conditions will be implemented perfectly, without uncertainties in the independent variables.
