Aldehyde-Assisted Lignocellulose Fractionation Provides Unique Lignin Oligomers for the Design of Tunable Polyurethane Bioresins

Jeremy Luterbacher, Florent Emmanuel Héroguel, Jean Thierry C Behaghel de Bueren, Raymond Gérard Buser, Chloé Wegmann

Thanks to chemical stabilization, aldehyde-assisted fractionation (AAF) of lignocellulosic biomass has recently emerged as a powerful tool for the production of largely uncondensed lignin. Depolymerization of AAF lignin via ether deavage provides aromatic ...

Hard Phase Crystallization Directs the Phase Segregation of Hydrogen-Bonded Supramolecular Polymers

Emad Oveisi

A growing body of work shows that the phase behavior of supramolecular polymers assembled from telechelic building blocks featuring binding motifs at the two termini is quite similar to that of conventional block copolymers. However, it remains unclear how ...

Labor division in engineered cross-kingdom consortia: Consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulosic biomass to carboxylic acids

Robert Lawrence Shahab

Lignocellulose is a renewable source of fixed carbon and a promising substrate for the production of chemicals and fuels in second generation biorefineries. In this thesis, we engineered artificial microbial consortia for consolidated bioprocessing (CBP) o ...

Effects of Zeolite Structural Confinement on Adsorption Thermodynamics and Reaction Kinetics for Monomolecular Cracking and Dehydrogenation of n-Butane

Berend Smit

The effects of zeolite structure on the kinetics of n-butane monomolecular cracking and dehydrogenation are investigated for eight zeolites differing in the topology of channels and cages. Monte Carlo simulations are used to calculate enthalpy and entropy ...

Adsorption Thermodynamics and Intrinsic Activation Parameters for Monomolecular Cracking of n-Alkanes on Bronsted Acid Sites in Zeolites

Berend Smit

Experimental' measurements of the rate coefficient (k(app)) and apparent enthalpies and entropies of activation (Delta H-app arid Delta S-app) for alkane cracking catalyzed by acidic zeolites can be used to characterize the effects of zeolite structure and ...

Synthesis of poly(ethylene-co-butylene)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) surfactant and its use in the synthesis of polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate nanoparticles containing azo-dye

Thomas Geiger, Yee Song Ko

A synthetic path to poly(ethylene-co-butylene)-block-poly(ethylene oxide), a substitute for the "KLE" surfactant was developed. For this purpose, mono hydroxyl end-functionalized poly(ethylene-co-butylene) (similar to 3800 g mol(-1)) was modified with a tr ...

Study of the surface-ruthenated SnO2/MWCNTs nanocomposite thick-film gas sensors

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Endre Horvath

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully coated with tin-dioxide (SnO2) nanopartides using both hydrothermal process and sol-gel technique under different solvent conditions. The obtained MWCNTs/SnO2 nanocomposites had the weight ratio of t ...

Syngas generation from n-butane with an integrated MEMS assembly for gas processing in micro-solid oxide fuel cell systems

Paul Muralt, Thomas Maeder, Bo Jiang

An integrated system of a microreformer and a carrier allowing for syngas generation from liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) for micro-SOFC application is discussed. The microreformer with an overall size of 12.7 mm × 12.7 mm × 1.9 mm is fabricated with micro-e ...

NMR microimaging of fluid flowin model string-type reactors

Lioubov Kiwi

Magnetic resonance microimaging (MRM) was employed to obtain quantitative velocity maps of water flowing in the channels possessing unconventional cross-section shapes formed by a bundle of parallel fibers within a tubular string-type reactor. The maps obt ...
