Explaining the Advantageous Impact of Tertiary versus Secondary Nitrogen Center on the Activity of PNP-Pincer Co(I)-Complexes for Catalytic Hydrogenation of CO2

Pincer ligated coordination complexes of base metals have shown remarkable catalytic activity for hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of CO2. The recently reported MeNCH2CH2(Pr-i(2))Co(I)PNP-pincer complex was shown to exhibit substantially higher catalytic ...

Heterogeneous nucleation of water vapor on different types of black carbon particles

Athanasios Nenes

The heterogeneous nucleation of water vapor on insoluble particles affects cloud formation, precipitation, the hydrological cycle, and climate. Despite its importance, heterogeneous nucleation remains a poorly understood phenomenon that relies heavily on e ...

Optimization of a Py-GC/MS method for silicone -based lubricants analysis

Christophe Roussel, Céline Burnier

Condom evidence can be analysed using several analytical techniques, such as FTIR, MALDI-MS or DART-TOF-MS, but the only one that was used on real samples for transfer and persistence studies in the context of sexual assault or rape cases was Py-GC/MS. How ...

Mitigation of Secondary Organic Aerosol Formation from Log Wood Burning Emissions by Catalytic Removal of Aromatic Hydrocarbons

Davide Ferri, Oliver Kröcher

Log wood burning is a significant source of volatile organic compounds including aromatic hydrocarbons (ArHC). ArHC are harmful, are reactive in the ambient atmosphere, and are important secondary organic aerosol (SOA) precursors. Consequently, SOA represe ...

Optical characterization of multi-scale morphologically complex heterogeneous media – Application to snow with soot impurities

Sophia Haussener, Xiaoyu Dai

A multi-scale methodology for the radiative transfer analysis of heterogeneous media composed of morphologically-complex components on two distinct scales is presented. The methodology incorporates the exact morphology at the various scales and utilizes vo ...

Clothing as a transport vector for airborne particles: Chamber study

Dusan Licina

Strong evidence suggests that clothing serves as a reservoir of chemical pollutants and particles, including bioaerosols, which may have health significance. However, little is known about the role that clothing may play as a transport vector for inhaled a ...

Discovery, evaluation, and analysis of novel pathways for production of five methyl ethyl ketone precursors

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Meriç Ataman, Noushin Hadadi, Milenko Tokic

The limited amount of fossil fuels shifted research in industry and academia towards sustainable production of their substitutes. One of the most prominent biofuel candidates is Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), due to its thermo-physical and transport properties ...

Ruthenium Dispersion: A Key Parameter for the Stability of Supported Ruthenium Catalysts during Catalytic Supercritical Water Gasification

Christian Ludwig, Frédéric Vogel, Gaël Peng

The catalytic supercritical water gasification of isopropanol (450 degrees C, 30 MPa) over Ru catalysts supported on carbon and metal oxides was performed in a fixed-bed plug flow reactor. The Ru loading was between 1.2 and 2%. The catalyst stability over ...

Premature deaths attributed to source-specific BC emissions in six urban US regions

Athanasios Nenes

Recent studies have shown that exposure to particulate black carbon (BC) has significant adverse health effects and may be more detrimental to human health than exposure to PM2.5 as a whole. Mobile source BC emission controls, mostly on diesel-burning vehi ...

Sorption kinetics and equilibrium of the herbicide diuron to carbon nanotubes or soot in absence and presence of algae

Arnaud Magrez, Laura Sigg

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are strong sorbents for organic micropollutants, but changing environmental conditions may alter the distribution and bioavailability of the sorbed substances. Therefore, we investigated the effect of green algae (Chlorella vulgaris) ...
