Clostridium acetobutylicum is an anaerobic bacterium that is extensively studied for its ability to produce butanol. Over the past two decades, various genetic and metabolic engineering approaches have been used to investigate ...

Carbon nanotubes have been explored in various fields of science and technology due to their unique properties. However, their toxic nature put limitations to its consideration for the bio-medical applications. In our work, ...

This paper presents a novel, model-based approach for energy-focused indoor particulate matter (PM) concentration control and indoor temperature management for a residential house. A physics-based model is developed to ...

In this study, we have carried out a comparative analysis of a fixed bed reactor (FBR) and reverse flow chromatographic reactor (RFCR) for a series reaction. This comparison has been carried out using mathematical model ...

Titanium diboride (TiB2), a layered ceramic material, comprised of titanium atoms sandwiched in between honeycomb planes of boron atoms, exhibits a promising structure to utilize the rich chemistry offered by the synergy ...

κ-carrageenan is a seaweed-derived polysaccharide commonly used in the food and pharmaceutical industry as a thickening agent and rheological modifier. The biopolymer has shown promising potential as a gel-based ink for ...

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have sought intensive research attention from diverse scientific disciplines due to their unique and exciting properties. The most well-known 2D material is graphene that finds applications ...

Via mesoscale simulations, we characterize the process of controlled degradation of nanogels suspended in a single solvent and those adsorbed at the liquid-liquid interface between two incompatible fluids. Controlled ...

Surfactants in water and both alcohol-water mixed solutions are used extensively in a host of industrial applications. This work presents the solution behavior and micellar transition of a cationic gemini surfactant ...

Hydrogel beads are emerging as alternate adsorbent material for the batch or continuous column treatment of dye wastewater. Polysaccharide-based gel beads are preferred for their uniform shape and size, large specific ...
