A critical review of CO2 photoconversion: Catalysts and reactors
(2014 , Article)
Photocatalytic conversion of CO2 to either a renewable fuel or valuable chemicals, using solar energy has attracted more and more attention, due to the great potential to provide an alternative clean fuel and solve the ...
A sensitivity analysis approach to identify key environmental performance factors
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2014 , Article)
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is widely used in design phase to reduce the product's environmental impacts through the whole product life cycle (PLC) during the last two decades. The traditional LCA is restricted to assessing ...
Ionic liquid design for enhanced carbon dioxide capture - A computer aided molecular design approach
(
Italian Association of Chemical Engineering - AIDIC
, 2014 , Article)
Greenhouse gases emission is known as the main factor of climate change, and carbon dioxide (CO2) makes up vast majority of them. Carbon capture and storage (CCS) is a vital technology to mitigate industrial CO2 emissions, ...
Impacts of CO2-induced seawater acidification on coastal Mediterranean bivalves and interactions with other climatic stressors
(
Springer Berlin Heidelberg
, 2014 , Article)
The effects of seawater acidification caused by increasing concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), combined with other climatic stressors, were studied on 3 coastal Mediterranean bivalve species: the mussel ...
Optimization of selection of chain amine scrubbers for CO2 capture
(
Springer Verlag
, 2014 , Article)
In order to optimize the selection of a suitable amine molecule for CO2 scrubbers, a series of ab initio calculations were performed at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p) level of theory. Diethylenetriamine was used as a simple chain ...
Relative sensitivity of soft-bottom intertidal macrofauna to increased CO2 and experimental stress
(
Inter-Research
, 2014 , Article)
We used a controlled CO2 perturbation experiment to test hypotheses about changes in diversity, composition and structure of soft-bottom intertidal macrobenthic assemblages, under realistic and locally relevant scenarios ...
