Bioinspired Design and Synthesis of Polyphenolic Star‐Like and Hyperbranched Polyester Models

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Gallotannin‐inspired star‐like and hyperbranched aromatic polyesters were synthesized from D‐glucose and ABn‐type phenolic acid monomers, such as protocatechuic acid. This bioinspired approach afforded polyphenolic polymeric nanoparticles able to encapsulate hydrophobic dyes, opening new perspectives for biobased encapsulation and delivery systems ...

Selective Non‐Catalytic Reduction of NOx in the Exhaust Gas of Small Wood Gasification Boilers

Chemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Kinetic studies of the SNCR reaction were conducted to investigate NOx reduction in the exhaust gas of small‐scale wood gasification boilers. Both the experimental results and the derived global kinetic model indicate that SNCR can achieve a significant reduction in NOx emissions under typical operating conditions. ABSTRACT The gas‐phase reaction of NO

Economic and environmental implications of the development of UASB reactors in Mexico for sustainable industrial wastewater treatment

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work is to demonstrate that the inclusion of an up‐flow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB reactor) within an industrial wastewater treatment plant reduces the plant's investment and operating costs compared to a system based solely on conventional complete‐mix activated sludge (CMAS), operating under the same design principles ...

Box–Behnken optimization and ANN‐ANFIS integrated modelling for transesterification using thermally activated basic oxygen furnace slag catalyst

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
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

Perspectives in biomedicine: Superfoods and antioxidant power classification

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The market value of natural food antioxidants will double to 8 billion USD by 2033, driven by a global consumer demand for ‘clean label’ products and proactive wellness solutions. However, the industrial application and health labelling (commercial brands) of these compounds remain severely constrained by inconsistent analytical methods.
