Assessing sublimation during snow transport and sublimation effects on the isotopic composition of water vapor

Sublimation influences the water storage in snow covers and glaciers, which is important for water use and projections of the sea level rise. Yet, it is challenging to quantify sublimation for large areas or in conditions of snow transport. In-situ measure ...

Syngas production with thermo-chemically recuperated gas expansion systems: An exergy analysis and energy integration study

In spite of the large degree of energy integration in the modern syngas production units, the highly endothermic reactions of steam methane reforming and the combined steam and power generation still require a huge amount of energy that is typically suppli ...

A novel reactor concept for thermal integration of naphtha reforming with propane ammoxidation

Alimohammad Bahmanpour, Samira Ebrahimian

In this study, propane ammoxidation as an exothermic process is thermally coupled with the endothermic naphtha reforming process which resulted in the elimination of the naphtha reforming furnaces. Both processes are available in petrochemical plants. Naph ...

High-pressure NMR spectroscopic and calorimetric studies on formic acid dehydrogenation and carbon dioxide hydrogenation

Cornel Fink

Our current energy production is convenient and simple, but it is not sustainable. The negative impacts on our environment are omnipresent in the form of smog, extinction of species, and global warming. A major challenge of our generation is the transition ...

High-yield, in-situ fabrication and integration of horizontal carbon nanotube arrays at the wafer scale for robust ammonia sensors

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Hoël Maxime Guérin, Laurent Syavoch Bernard, Elizabeth Buitrago Godinez

This paper reports the successful experimental demonstration of the localized growth of horizontal, dense carbon nanotube (CNT) arrays in situ and at the wafer scale. The selectivity and directionality of the CNT catalytic growth process along with the ade ...

A Mechanochemical Switch to Control Radical Intermediates

Ursula Röthlisberger, Elizabeth Claire Brunk

B-12-dependent enzymes employ radical species with exceptional prowess to catalyze some of the most chemically challenging, thermodynamically unfavorable reactions. However, dealing with highly reactive intermediates is an extremely demanding task, requiri ...
