The CO2 capture process in coal-fired power plant flue gas still faces the difficulties of low material performance and high energy and cost consumption. It is necessary to develop new capture solvents and materials, and also new capture process conf...
Post-combustion CO2 capture from coal-fired power plant flue gas remains constrained by the low material performance and high energy consumption of solvent regeneration. Advancement needs to be made on two fronts: the development of improved solvents...
The building industry faces a number of prominent challenges in the coming period. In this article, we focus on productivity in construction, which lags behind other industries despite technological developments. There is an urgent need for more effi...
Due to the strong public initiative in Europe and increased regulator focus to mitigate pain, surgical castration of pigs is being gradually abandoned, while the importance of other sex categories like entire males (EM) and immunocastrates (IC) incre...
Societies worldwide are under increasing pressure to reduce carbon footprints, combat air pollution, and address climate change. Battery electric vehicles (BEVs) represent a sustainable transportation solution to mitigate environmental issues. Despit...
Lignin–cellulose mixtures (LCMs) generated as intermediates in wood biorefineries are commonly separated into lignin and cellulose. However, using ultrasound (US) to process these mixtures could create novel, valuable materials not possible wit...
Polyelectrolyte microgels may undergo volume phase transition upon loading and the release of amphiphilic molecules, a process important in drug delivery. The new phase is “born” in the outermost gel layers, whereby it grows inward as a s...
Exposure to heat stress (HS) detrimentally affects pig performance. This study explored whether a dietary phytogenic solution based on Capsicum spp. (PHY) could enhance the thermal tolerance of heat-stressed growing pigs. Forty-two individually house...
Additive manufacturing of Ti6Al4V alloys via laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) has demonstrated superior tensile strength compared to conventional methods. However, challenges remain in enhancing ductility and tailoring mechanical properties for specif...
In many tourism destinations, sustainability of the local economy leans on small and medium-sized hotels that are individually owned and operated by members of the community. Suffering from seasonality more than their big competitors, these hotels sh...
