Theelectrochemical reductionofCO2 is typically investigatedunderpureCO2 feeds,butpracticaldeploymentmust addressmorecomplexanddilutesourcessuchasfluegases.Here, we studied Cu/Cu2O electrodes decorated with tin (Sn) synthesizedusing a scalable electrodepositionmethodandpost treatments under both pureCO2 and reactive nitrogen oxide containingsimulatedfluega...

Understanding crop water use is essential for improving agricultural water management and ensuring sustainable food production, especially in regions with limited water re sources. Evapotranspiration (ET) is a key component of the hydrological cycle, directly influencing irrigation planning and crop&#...

This overview explores time-domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) relaxometry as a rapid, non-invasive analyti cal tool for evaluating packaged food products. While traditional invasive methods are often laborious and time-consuming, TD-NMR harnesses the radio-frequency transparency of most packaging ...

Electrochemical CO2 reduction to formate (HCOO-) represents an efficient strategy to mitigate CO2 emissions while producing value-added chemicals. However, the reaction typically requires high overpotential and suffers from low selectivity and current density. This work reports the development of Bi2O...

Intelligent food packaging can help reduce food waste by providing consumers real-time information about product freshness. They can be produced using natural pigments with pH-dependent color changes, which makes them promising candidates for colorimetric sensors. This study reports the development,&#...

The extensive use of herbicides such as imazapic, from the imidazolinone class, raises environmental concerns due to its persistence and toxicity in ecosystems and subsequent crops. Enzymatic bioremediation emerges as a sustainable alterna tive for the mitigation of these contaminants. This ...

CaFe2O4 is a p-type ferrite semiconductor of interest for photo-assisted environmental remediation due to its narrow band gap and high chemical stability. In this work, CaFe2O4 powders were synthesized via the Pechini polymeric precursor method and calcined be tween 550 and 850 ◦C ...
