A holistic approach for incorporating sub-angstrom gas-sieving pores in single-layer graphene: from atomic simulations to large area membranes

The ultimate thinness of graphene pores makes them ideal as a high-flux selective layer for manipulating molecular transport. However, due to the limited understanding of the formation of ångstrom (Å)-scale pores, controlling pore size and understanding ga ...

A new self-adjustable glaucoma valve

Julien Maxime Gerber, Soroush Rafiei, Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Stéphane Bigler

Introduction: Glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, affects more than 70 million people across the world. When initial treatments prove ineffective, especially for cases with high intraocular pressure (IOP), the preferred approach ...

Exact Algorithms for Continuous Pricing with Advanced Discrete Choice Demand Models

Michel Bierlaire, Fabian Alejandro Torres Duran, Tom Haering

We present the Breakpoint Exact Algorithm (BEA) together with a Spatial Branch and Bound (B&B), and Spatial Branch and Benders Decomposition (B&BD) approach to tackle the uncapacitated choice-based pricing problem (CPP) where demand is captured by a disc ...

Power-to-methane via co-electrolysis of H2O and CO2: Reactor operation and system simulation

Jan Van Herle, Philippe Aubin

The traditional pathway of electrolysis based power-to-methane systems consists of water (liquid or vapor) electrolysis followed by CO2 methanation. The use of solid-oxide electrolysers allows an alternative pathway, i.e., steam and CO2 electrolysis follow ...

Hybridisation Scenarios of Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, Batteries, and Internal Combustion Engines for Waterborne Transportation

François Maréchal, Daniel Alexander Florez Orrego, Eduardo Antonio Pina

The shipping industry was responsible for about 3% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in 2018. In this context, the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) has established stringent targets to reduce GHG emissions by at least 50% by 2050 compared t ...

Metabolic Performance and Fate of Electrons during Nitrate-Reducing Fe(II) Oxidation by the Autotrophic Enrichment Culture KS Grown at Different Initial Fe/N Ratios

Natalia Jakus

Autotrophic nitrate-reducing Fe(II)-oxidizing (NRFeOx) microorganisms fix CO2 and oxidize Fe(II) coupled to denitrification, influencing carbon, iron, and nitrogen cycles in pH-neutral, anoxic environments. However, the distribution of electrons from Fe(II ...
