MRI and PFG NMR studies of percolation effects in advanced melting during a cryoporometry characterisation of disordered mesoporous alumina. Microporous and Mesoporous Materials, 377, Article 113202. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.micromeso.2024.113202

Cryoporometry (or thermoporometry) offers a way of pore structural characterisation for mesoporous materials that often needs little sample preparation, is relatively quick, and is statistically-representative for macroscopic samples. While it is wel... Read More about MRI and PFG NMR studies of percolation effects in advanced melting during a cryoporometry characterisation of disordered mesoporous alumina.

Microwave thermal pre-treatment and calcination of biomineralised sorbents for calcium looping (2024)
Journal Article
Erans, M., Durán-Jimenez, G., Rodríguez, J. M., Stevens, L., & Dodds, C. (2024). Microwave thermal pre-treatment and calcination of biomineralised sorbents for calcium looping. Journal of Co2 Utilization, 83, Article 102794. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcou.2024.102794

Waste eggshells have been investigated as biomineralised CO2 sorbents for the calcium looping cycle due to their high Ca content, low cost, availability, and high CO2 uptake. This work investigates a novel heat-pre-treatment using eggshells as raw ma... Read More about Microwave thermal pre-treatment and calcination of biomineralised sorbents for calcium looping.

Microwave pyrolysis of waste biomass and synthesis of micro-mesoporous activated carbons: The role of textural properties for CO2 and textile dye adsorption (2024)
Journal Article
Durán-Jiménez, G., Rodriguez, J., Stevens, L., Kostas, E. T., & Dodds, C. (2024). Microwave pyrolysis of waste biomass and synthesis of micro-mesoporous activated carbons: The role of textural properties for CO2 and textile dye adsorption.

Hierarchical porous activated carbons (ACs) were efficiently synthesized in less than 2 min using microwaves and phosphoric acid (H3PO4), exhibiting excellent potential as adsorbent for carbon dioxide (CO2) and Methylene Blue (MB). The method emphasi... Read More about Microwave pyrolysis of waste biomass and synthesis of micro-mesoporous activated carbons: The role of textural properties for CO2 and textile dye adsorption.
