Ionic liquids, which are designable and nonvolatile, have become a hot topic in the field of CO2 separation from industrial gases. In order to utilize the nonvolatile and low heat capacity of ionic liquids, it is necessary to solve the problem of high viscosity of pure ionic liquids. In the present study, ether functionalized pyridinium ion [E1Py](...

Herein, a new tetraphenyladamantane-cored triazine-based multiamine (TPADT) was designed and synthesized. Its bulky molecular volume, strong rigidity, and high amine functionality enable it easy to prop up the polymer backbone and form a high hypercrosslinking degree to obtain high microporosity. A series of highly microporous tetraphenyladamantane...

Electrochemical reduction of CO2 to chemical feedstocks offers a sustainable way to reduce carbon emissions by shifting the industry away from fossil fuel dependence. However, the lack of understanding of economic feasibility is hindering this technology from large-scale application. We proposed a systematic methodology to evaluate and design the n...

A family of novel multi-center ionic liquids (ILs) were designed for the target of efficient transformation of CO2 into cyclic carbonates. The multi-center structures could expose more active sites than single-center ones in cycloaddition reaction. Among these ILs, with the chain-regulation strategy, the multi-center hexabutylimidazole bromobenzene...

Purpose A considerable proportion of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remain undiagnosed and untreated even though they may have a burden of respiratory symptoms that impact quality of life. The OCEAN study assessed the ability of screening questionnaires to identify individuals with, or at risk of, COPD by comparing quest...

Anaerobic digesters produce biogas, a mixture of predominantly CH4 and CO2 , which is typically incinerated to recover electrical and/or thermal energy. In a context of circular economy, the CH4 and CO2 could be used as chemical feedstock in combination with ammonium from the digestate. Their combination into protein-rich bacterial, used as animal ...
