Bio‐Inspired Cascade Photocatalysis on Fe Single‐Atom Carbon Nitride Upcycles Plastic Wastes for Effective Acetic Acid Production

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a novel cascade photocatalysis concept using Fe single‐atom catalysts (Fe@C3N4 SAC) to directly upcycle plastics (PET, PP, PE, PVC) into valuable acetic acid at ambient conditions. Inspired by microbial degradation, the bifunctional cascade photocatalyst combines Fenton‐like oxidation and CO2 photoreduction, as validated by ...

Physical, Chemical and Mechanical Characterization of Sida Rhombifolia Fibers from the Center Region of Cameroon for their potential use in textiles and composites

Journal of Natural Fibers
To substitute synthetic fibers, which are non-biodegradable and environmentally unfriendly, studies have been carried out to exploit vegetable fibers. Within this concept, this work investigates Sida rhombifolia as a case study.

Dietary fiber contents of several vegetables.

Nippon Eiyo Shokuryo Gakkaishi, 1987
The dietary fiber contents of Lettuce, Celery, Sweet pepper, Cucumber, Spinach, Eggplant and Chinese cabbage commercially available in Tokyo were deterrmined gravimetrically using the partly modified method of Asp et al. involving enzymatic digestion. Recovery tests performed on cellulose powder gave a recovery of 101.5%, and those performed on model ...

Development, Nutritional Evaluation, and Shelf‐Life Study of a Jackfruit‐Based Meat Analogue Enriched With Legumes and Spirulina

AgriFood: Journal of Agricultural Products for Food, EarlyView.
A jackfruit‐based meat analog enriched with legumes and spirulina was developed, optimized, and evaluated for sensory, nutritional, and shelf‐life qualities. The best formulation offered superior taste, texture, nutrient density, and maintained safety and quality for up to 60 days under frozen storage. ABSTRACT This study focuses on the development and
