Catalyst‐Free Cyanation of Arenes by Acetonitrile in a Plasma–Liquid Microreactor
An original approach of arylnitrile synthesis was developed by generating an argon plasma in contact with solutions of arene in acetonitrile within a gas‐liquid microreactor. Plasma activation of acetonitrile generated cyano radicals, enabling a catalyst‐free C‐H cyanation of arenes.

Influence of Particle Size, Moisture, and Cloud Density on Wood Dust Ignition
The ignition and combustion of particle clouds are strongly affected by particle interactions. This study uses spectroscopy to examine effects of particle size, water content, and cloud density. Results show ignition delay rises with larger size and density, whereas combustion duration depends mainly on water and density due to moisture‐driven ...

Abstract Global energy demand and environmental concerns have intensified the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources. This study thus, focuses on optimizing the transesterification process of waste cooking oil (WCO) using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst calcined at 850°C (BOF 850). The optimization and modelling were

A novel bubbling fluid bed reactor for the autothermal pyrolysis of waste plastics
Abstract A new pilot‐scale fluidized bed reactor operated under continuous conditions was developed and tested for the thermal pyrolysis of high‐density polyethylene (HDPE). The study focused on assessing the reliability and operability of the system under different operating conditions (400–550°C), while monitoring mass and energy balances, product ...

The SIR Model in a Moving Population: Propagation of Infection and Herd Immunity
ABSTRACT In a collection of particles performing independent random walks on Zd$\mathbb {Z}^d$ we study the spread of an infection with SIR dynamics. Susceptible particles become infected when they meet an infected particle. Infected particles heal and are removed at rate ν$\nu$.

AI‐Enhanced Laser Manufacturing: A Social Life Cycle Perspective From the White Goods Industry
ABSTRACT Sustainable manufacturing transitions require companies to demonstrate not only environmental and economic benefits, but also measurable advances in corporate social responsibility (CSR). Therefore, we propose using a guideline‐based Social Life Cycle Assessment (S‐LCA) aligned with UNEP (2020) and ISO 14075 (2024) to evaluate the social ...
