Clean Production of Bioplastic and Bio-oil from Solar Energy and Carbon Dioxide

Yu J., University of Hawaii at Manoa, US

Producing fuels and materials from solar energy and CO2 is a clean sustainable solution to the arising fossil energy consumption and CO2 emission. This paper presents a high intensity process that can run continuously at [...]

Toxicity of Titanium Dioxide Nanoparticles on Growth Kinetics of Activated Biomass

Das P., Bagdiya N., Kumar A., IIT Delhi, IN

The objective of this study was to study the effect of titanium dioxide (TiO2) NPs on growth kinetic parameters of aerobic sludge bacteria. TiO2 NPs (2 mg/L and 20 mg/L concentrations) were exposed to activated [...]

An investigation on the aggregation phenomena of Titanium dioxide nanoparticles in natural waters: role of ionic strength, organic matter and natural colloidal particles

Romanello M., Luppi V.A., Bertini L., Fidalgo de Cortalezzi M., Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires, AR

The aggregation behavior of TiO2 nanoparticles under conditions normally encountered in natural waters was investigated. Aggregation kinetics and size distribution was determined by DLS using a Nanosizer ZS, Malvern, UK. SEM images were also collected. [...]

Photocatalytic activity of mesoporous titanium dioxide nanoparticles under visible light irradiation

Ikuma Y., Kida S., Kuramoto R., Niwa K., Anandan S., Kanagawa Inst. of Tech., JP

Using surfactant and other chemicals, nano-template consisting of SiO2 was first prepared. Then the template was treated in titanium tetra-isopropoxide dissolved in 1-propanol to convert silicon into titanium. The product was heated in air or [...]

Dilute Methane Pollution Control That Produces Continuous Clean Renewable Energy

Blair J., Fukumoto P., FlexEnergy, US

Methane is a greenhouse gas that has 25 times the environmental impact of carbon dioxide. Millions of tons of manmade methane seep into the atmosphere each year. Controlling this methane has been problematic. Much of [...]

Sorption of Carbon Dioxide at High Temperatures by Slag

Tseng T.K., Chun K.L., Chu H., Chun K.L., National Cheng Kung University, TW

After industrial revolution, the increases of CO2 concentration in the atmosphere are resulted from the consumption of huge amounts of fossil fuels; hence causes global climate changes including temperature increasing and ocean level rising. Technologies [...]

Molecular Effects of Silicon Dioxide Nanoparticles on Cell Survival Signaling of Dorsal Root Ganglion (DRG) Neurons and Schwann Cells

Jain A., Jaiswal A.R., Lu S., Wong Y.Y.W., Bhushan A., Leung S.W., Daniels C.K., Lai J.C.K., Idaho State University, US

The molecular mechanisms underlying the pathophysiology of peripheral neuropathies have not been fully elucidated. To meet the need for suitable cell culture models in vitro of peripheral nervous system (PNS) neural cells that allow long-term [...]
