Maximizing olefin production via steam cracking of distilled pyrolysis oils from difficult-to-recycle municipal plastic ...
Plastic waste is steadily polluting oceans and environments. Even if collected, most waste is still predominantly incinerated for energy recovery at the cost of CO2. Chemical recycling can contribute to the transition towards a circular economy with pyrolysis combined with steam cracking being the favored recycling option for the time being. Howeve...
Deodorization of post-consumer plastic waste fractions : a comparison of different washing media
...
An important impediment to the acceptance of recyclates into a broader market is their unwanted odor after reprocessing. Different types of washing procedures are already in place, but fundamental insights into the deodorization efficiencies of different washing media are still relatively scarce. Therefore, in this study, the deodorization efficien...
Analysis of power allocation for NOMA-based D2D communications using GADIA
The new era of IoT brings the necessity of smart synergy for diverse communication and computation entities. The two extremes are, on the one hand, the 5G Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) required for Industrial IoT (IIoT) and Vehicle Communications (V2V, V2I, V2X). While on the other hand, the Ultra-Low Power, Wide-Range, Low Bit-...
Development of a chemogenomics library for phenotypic screening
...
Published in Journal of Cheminformatics
With the development of advanced technologies in cell-based phenotypic screening, phenotypic drug discovery (PDD) strategies have re-emerged as promising approaches in the identification and development of novel and safe drugs. However, phenotypic screening does not rely on knowledge of specific drug targets and needs to be combined with chemical b...
Fresh water production from atmospheric air: Technology and innovation outlook
Capturing water vapor from atmospheric air is a possible solution to local water scarcity, but it is very energy demanding. Energy consumption estimates of water-from-air technologies involving adsorption processes, thermo-responsive hydrophilicity switching polymers, air cooling processes, and reverse osmosis of deliquescent salt solutions reveal ...
A data-centric approach to generative modelling for 3D-printed steel
...
The emergence of additive manufacture (AM) for metallic material enables components of near arbitrary complexity to be produced. This has potential to disrupt traditional engineering approaches. However, metallic AM components exhibit greater levels of variation in their geometric and mechanical properties compared to standard components, which is ...
Discovery, optimization, and target identification of novel coumarin derivatives as HIV-1 reverse transcriptase-associat...
...
Despite significant advances in antiretroviral therapy, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome remains as one of the leading causes of death worldwide. New antiretroviral drugs combined with updated treatment strategies are needed to improve convenience, tolerability, safety, and antiviral efficacy of available therapies. In this work, a focused librar...
Fish Acquisition and Consumption in the African Great Lakes Region through a Food Environment Lens: A Scoping Review
Effective actions for the fishery and aquaculture sectors to contribute toward improving nutrition rely on an understanding of the factors influencing fish intake, particularly amongst vulnerable populations. This scoping review synthesises evidence from 33 studies in the African Great Lakes Region to examine the influence of food environments on f...
Impact of changing medical workforce demographics in renal medicine over 7 years: Analysis of GMC national trainee surve...
Increasing numbers of doctors in training are taking career breaks, with burnout cited as a potential cause. This study analysed General Medical Council (GMC) national training survey data (renal medicine) to understand the impacts of changing workforce demographics on trainee outcomes and wellbeing. Increasing proportions of female, Black, Asian a...
