Fe-N co-doped coral-like hollow carbon shell toward boosting peroxymonosulfate activation for efficient degradation of tetracycline: Singlet oxygen-dominated non-radical pathway

Wenjin Chen et al.

Summary: Fe-N co-doped coral-like hollow carbon shell (Fe-N-CS) was synthesized and exhibited excellent ability in activating peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for efficient degradation of tetracycline. The Fe-N-CS/PMS system showed good anti-interference capacity and the anchoring of Fe nanoparticles in the carbon layer effectively limited metal leaching. Mechanistic study revealed that Fe nanoparticles, defects, and graphite N played vital roles in activating PMS to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) for tetracycline degradation.

Controlled Manufacture of Heterogeneous Catalysts for the Hydrogenation of CO2 via Steam Pyrolysis of Different Metal-Organic Frameworks

Il Son Khan et al.

Summary: The use of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as precursors for heterogeneous catalysts has attracted much attention. Steaming during the controlled decomposition of MOFs leads to the formation of smaller, well-dispersed metal nanoparticles, resulting in more efficient catalysts. This study demonstrates the benefits of steam addition, including improved phase composition control and catalyst activity, for CO2 hydrogenation.

Syngas production from thermochemical conversion of mixed food waste: A review

Sanjeev Yadav et al.

Summary: In recent years, the disposal of leftover food or cooked food waste has become a critical environmental issue. Sending the waste for incineration and landfilling contributes significantly to environmental pollution. Researchers have explored alternative methods for processing food waste in an environmentally friendly way, and thermochemical methods have shown promise in handling the waste and producing renewable energy. However, the generation of syngas, a renewable energy source, is favored by only a few thermochemical processes, and they differ in terms of process conditions and syngas quality. The latest process, supercritical water gasification, has the advantage of producing syngas with a higher hydrogen fraction, but it has lower yields and higher operational costs.

Historical red-lining is associated with fossil fuel power plant siting and present-day inequalities in air pollutant emissions

Lara J. Cushing et al.

Summary: Stationary sources of air pollution are disproportionately located in communities of colour. A study suggests that racialized appraisals of investment risk in the 1930s influenced the siting of fossil fuel power plants, leading to disparities in power plant emissions burdens. Red-lined neighborhoods had a higher likelihood of hosting power plants and higher emissions compared to declining neighborhoods.

Catalysts and their role in biomass gasification and tar abetment: a review

Sunil L. Narnaware et al.

Summary: Biomass gasification technology shows promise in transforming biomass into gaseous products, but faces challenges with tar generation. Catalytic tar reduction is an attractive technique, however, there are challenges in economic viability and selecting the appropriate catalyst for the process.
