GC-MS analysis of alkylpyrazines in the pyrolysis oils of silica-polyethylenimine CO2 sorbents (2023)
Journal Article
Coralli, I., Spada, L., Fabbri, D., Pour, S. R. S., Fiori, J., Vassura, I., …Snape, C. E. (2024). GC-MS analysis of alkylpyrazines in the pyrolysis oils of silica-polyethylenimine CO2 sorbents. Journal of Chromatography Open, 5, Article 100108. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcoa.2023.100108

Solid sorbents based on silica and polyethyleneimine (PEI) are intensively investigated in the field of carbon capture and storage (CCS). Pyrolysis was proposed as a thermal process to recover the pure silica from exhausted sorbents and convert PEI i...

The search for alternative ways to give a second life to materials paved the way for detailed investigation into three silica-polyethylenimine (Si-PEI) materials for the purpose of CO2 adsorption in carbon capture and storage. A solvent extraction pr... Read More about Valorization Strategies in CO2 Capture: A New Life for Exhausted Silica-Polyethylenimine.

Low-temperature chemical looping oxidation of hydrogen for space heating (2023)
Journal Article
Güleç, F., Okolie, J. A., Clough, P. T., Erdogan, A., Meredith, W., & Snape, C. E. (2023). Low-temperature chemical looping oxidation of hydrogen for space heating. Journal of the Energy Institute, 110, Article 101355. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joei.2023.101355

Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is an advanced combustion process in which the combustion reaction splits into two parts; in the first reaction metal oxides are used as oxygen suppliers for fuel combustion and then in the second reaction, reduced m...

Biochar application to temperate grasslands: challenges and opportunities for delivering multiple ecosystem services (2023)
Journal Article
Brown, R. W., Chadwick, D. R., Bott, T., West, H. M., Wilson, P., Hodgins, G. R., …Jones, D. L. (2023). Biochar application to temperate grasslands: challenges and opportunities for delivering multiple ecosystem services. Biochar, 5(1), Article 33. https://doi.org/10.1007/s42773-023-00232-y

Grasslands (natural, semi-natural and improved) occupy approximately one-third of the terrestrial biosphere and are key for global ecosystem service provision, storing up to 30% of soil organic carbon (SOC). To date, most research on soil carbon (C)... Read More about Biochar application to temperate grasslands: challenges and opportunities for delivering multiple ecosystem services.
