Hydrogen donor‐assisted visbreaking of Canadian oil sands bitumen

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐viscosity Canadian oil sands bitumen requires processing for efficient transportation and refining. Partial upgrading technologies, primarily based on thermal processing, can effectively reduce, or even eliminate, the use of costly diluent, increase bitumen quality and market value, potentially decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and

One century of teaching, research, and innovation in chemical engineering in Mexico: The role of chemical engineering in the background and future of polymer science and industrial production in Mexico

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Timeline of key academic milestones and individuals that shaped chemical engineering at FQ‐UNAM and in Mexico. Abstract One hundred years after the beginning of the teaching of Chemical Engineering in Mexico, which started in 1925 in the former National School of Chemical Sciences, currently Faculty of Chemistry (FQ) at National Autonomous University ...

Review of CFD modelling techniques for single‐phase and multiphase flow in static mixers

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This review synthesizes computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approaches for static mixers, linking hydrodynamics to pressure drop, particle/droplet distributions, mixing metrics, and heat‐transfer performance to guide modelling choices and design decisions. Abstract Static mixers enable compact and low‐energy intensification.

Captivated by Kinesin

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Few proteins have inspired as much curiosity as kinesin. Since its discovery 40 years ago, kinesin has become one of the best understood molecular machines in biology, yet it continues to reveal new questions about how cells organize and move their contents.

Plasmakristall‐4 Experiment: 10 Years of Operation in Orbit

open access: yesContributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasmakristall‐4 (PK‐4) is a microgravity complex plasma laboratory operated for 10 years on board the International Space Station. Its main purpose is the particle‐resolved investigation of generic condensed matter phenomena using strongly coupled suspensions of microparticles immersed in low‐pressure gas‐discharge plasmas.

Photothermal bubble: Dynamics, manipulation, and applications

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
As a versatile platform for bubble manipulation, photothermal techniques empower diverse operations: planar translation by scanning the laser spot, sustained periodic bouncing from competing thermal and hydrodynamic flows, and even guided 3D trajectories achieved by tailoring the heating configuration.

Localized 3D acoustic streaming in microdroplets using high‐frequency micro‐beam IDTs

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
Miniaturized 160 MHz acoustic microbeam transducers, with a size much smaller than droplets, enable precise localized actuation, generating complex three‐dimensional streaming and tunable particle aggregation. This concept provides high‐resolution, non‐contact fluid manipulation for biosensing, lab‐on‐chip diagnostics, and targeted drug screening ...

Microfluidic production of monodisperse food‐additive polymer capsules for biological applications

open access: yesDroplet, EarlyView.
Monodisperse TGPR polymer capsules are generated via a robust microfluidic approach exploiting droplet interface transfer across the oil‒water interface. Unlike lipid vesicles, these capsules offer high thermal stability and biocompatibility. They successfully demonstrated utility as robust bioreactors for in‐capsule PCR and bacterial cultivation ...

Carbon emission assessment of tunnel infrastructures: From construction to operation

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study develops a lifecycle carbon accounting framework for tunnel infrastructures, covering design, construction, operation, maintenance, and dismantling. Applied to a subsea tunnel case, the framework reveals the carbon emission distribution among four typical tunnel types and highlights potential carbon offset methods for low‐carbon tunnel ...
