Sulfurospirillum diekertiae sp. nov., a tetrachloroethene-respiring bacterium isolated from contaminated soil

Christof Holliger, Julien Maillard, Junxiong Wang

Two anaerobic, tetrachloroethene- (PCE-) respiring bacterial isolates, designated strain ACSDCE T and strain ACSTCE, were characterized using a polyphasic approach. Cells were Gram-stain-negative, motile, non-spore-forming and shared a vibrioid- to spirill ...

Toward waste valorization by converting bioethanol production residues into nanoparticles and nanocomposite films

Xun Liao, Muhammad Farooq

A "waste-valorization" approach was developed to transform recalcitrant hydrolysis lignin (HL) from secondgeneration bioethanol production into multifunctional bio-based products. The hydrolysis lignin (HL) was extracted with aqueous acetone, yielding two ...

Stabilization strategies in biomass depolymerization using chemical functionalization

Jeremy Luterbacher, Ydna Marie Questell-Santiago

A central feature of most lignocellulosic-biomass-valorization strategies is the depolymerization of all its three major constituents: cellulose and hemicellulose to simple sugars, and lignin to phenolic monomers. However, reactive intermediates, generally ...

Cellulose phosphorylation comparison and analysis of phosphorate position on cellulose fibers

David Lyndon Emsley, Jayasubba Reddy Yarava, Michel Bardet, Julien Bras

Chemical modifications of cellulose fibers as pretreatment for cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) production have been investigated to improve the production process and the quality of obtained cellulosic nanomaterial. In this study, phosphorylation of cellulose ...

Photocatalytic degradation of binary and ternary mixtures of antibiotics: reactive species investigation in pilot scale

Sami Rtimi

The present study investigates the photocatalytic degradation of three quinolone antibiotics (i.e., Flumequine (FLU), Oxolinic Acid (OA) and Nalidixic Acid (NA)) in mono-, binary and ternary compound systems. The closed-loop step photo-reactor and TiO2 imp ...

Cyclic loading of a cellulose/hydrogel composite increases its fracture strength

Dominique Pioletti, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Peyman Karami, Céline Samira Wyss

The fracture properties of hydrogels which present similar characteristics to the Mullins effect is expected to decrease under repeated cyclic loading. Therefore, we assessed how cyclic loading affects the fracture behavior, the distribution of strain fiel ...

Synthesis of Adamantane Aminoethers with Antitubercular Potential

Stewart Cole, Anthony Vocat

Background: Intrigued by the fact that aminoadamantane derivatives, bearing the active 1,2-ethylenediamine moiety, are promising antitubercular agents, we report herein the synthesis and the antitubercular evaluation of N,N'-substituded-4,4'-[adamantane-2, ...

Photocatalytic performance of TiO2 impregnated polyester for the degradation of Reactive Green 12: Implications of the surface pretreatment and the microstructure

Sami Rtimi

In the present work, we investigate the degradation of recalcitrant industrial textile dye (Reactive green 12) in aqueous solution by TiO2 impregnated polyester at room temperature. The TiO2 loading on polyester was optimized using different polyester pret ...
