A survey to document toxic hazards in the zone surrounding volcanoes national park, a habitat for mountain gorillas, an ...
Published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science
Introduction In recent years, Volcanoes National Park has seen a rise in its wildlife population, primarily due to the diligent efforts of the Rwandan government in safeguarding endangered species, notably the mountain gorillas (Gorilla beringei spp. beringei). This population growth has led to a pressing need for more expansive habitats, ensuring ...
Classements accommodants. Façonner des listes pour gérer les molécules problématiques
Les inventaires et les listes sont un outil de gouvernement extrêmement répandu, mais dont les enjeux et les processus d'élaboration sont parfois méconnus. Ces artefacts en apparence neutres et apolitiques, souvent décrits comme des « choses ennuyeuses », constituent en réalité des entrées particulièrement riches pour analyser les rapports de force...
Life cycle optimization towards environmentally and economically sustainable chemicals and plastics
The chemical industry plays a vital role in society since producing raw materials for many products that are essential to modern life. However, the chemical industry’s reliance on fossil resources leads to substantial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, exacerbating climate change. GHG emissions can be mitigated by deploying circular technologies inclu...

Methane-to-chemicals: a pathway to decarbonization.
Published in National science review
The utilization of methane for chemical production, often considered as the future of petrochemistry, historically could not compete economically with conventional processes due to higher investment costs. Achieving sustainability and decarbonization of the downstream industry by integration with a methane-to-chemicals process may provide an opport...
