Carbon Energy, EarlyView.Elongation (ELG) method for calculating the electronic structures of aperiodic polymers was combined with dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) simulation to perform more reliable simulations using quantum chemistry (QC)‐based parameters. The method was employed to analyze phase separation in an amine‐containing CO2 capture membrane, and the results ...

Obtaining 228ra (MsTh 1) from thorium nitrate.
, 1981 135 kilograms of thorium nitrate purified and recrystallised in 1958 have been treated to extract 228Ra in radioactive equilibrium. Most of the thorium was eliminated by solvent extraction (T.B.P.) and final purification was by chromatography (Dowex 50 W

Methanol With Increased Water Content in Internal Combustion Engines
Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.This study investigates the potential to improve overall Well‐to‐Wheel efficiency by using low‐purity methanol from synthesis of hydrogen and furnace gas as CO2‐source. Combustion efficiency is comparable to pure methanol, while distillation energy could be saved.
