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 ...
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 ...
Computational study on oxynitride perovskites for CO2 photoreduction
(
Elsevier Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
The photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into chemical fuels is an attractive route for recycling this greenhouse gas. However, the large scale application of such approach is limited by the low selectivity and activity of the ...
Gas Hydrate Prevention and Flow Assurance by Using Mixtures of Ionic Liquids and Synergent Compounds: Combined Kinetics and Thermodynamic Approach
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
The thermodynamic and kinetic hydrates inhibition effects of addition of synergents poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and vinyl caprolactum (VCAP) with ionic liquids 1-methyl-1-propylpyrrolidinium chloride [PMPy][Cl] and ...
Larval hatching and development of the wedge shell (Donax trunculus L.) under increased CO2 in southern Portugal
(
Springer Verlag
, 2016 , Article)
Noticeable changes in global temperatures, climate and ocean carbon chemistry are the result of carbon dioxide increase in the atmosphere. This increase has been mitigated by the oceans capacity to absorb one-fourth of the ...
Corrosion Behavior of Carbon Steel in CO2 Saturated Amine and Imidazolium-, Ammonium-, and Phosphonium-Based Ionic Liquid Solutions
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
This work presents a recent investigation on corrosion behavior of carbon steel amine and ionic liquid based carbon dioxide absorbents. The first class focused on classical amine solutions: monoethanolamine (MEA), ...
Kinetics of CO2 Adsorption/Desorption of Polyethyleneimine-Mesoporous Silica
(
Wiley-VCH Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
The kinetics of adsorption of CO2 on solid sorbents based on polyethyleneimine/mesoporous silica (PEI/MPS) was studied by following the mass gain during CO2 flow. Linear (PEI-423) and branched (PEI-10k) polymers were ...
Selective adsorption of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen using resorcinol-formaldehyde-xerogel activated carbon
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2017 , Article)
Resorcinol–formaldehyde xerogel was prepared, carbonized and activated in specific conditions to form resorcinol–formaldehyde activated carbon xerogel (RF-ACX) that was to produce microporous nanoparticles. RF-ACX was used ...
Insights into choline chloride-phenylacetic acid deep eutectic solvent for CO2 absorption
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
The properties of choline chloride plus phenylacetic acid deep eutectic solvents in neat liquid state and upon absorption of CO2 are analyzed using a theoretical approach combining quantum chemistry using Density Functional ...
Interfacial properties of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium glycinate ionic liquid regarding CO2, SO2 and water from molecular dynamics
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
The surface properties of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium glycinate ionic liquid, as a model of amino acid-based compounds, in contact with a vacuum, CO2, SO2 and flue gas phases are studied using molecular dynamics simulations. ...
