CO2 Capture and Release in Amine Solutions: To What Extent Can Molecular Simulations Help Understand the Trends?

Wanda Andreoni, Fabio Pietrucci, Changru Ma

Absorption in amine solutions is a well-established advanced technology for CO2 capture. However, the fundamental aspects of the chemical reactions occurring in solution still appear to be unclear. Our previous investigation of aqueous monoethanolamine (ME ...

Associations between urinary biomarkers of oxidative stress and biomarkers of tobacco smoke exposure in smokers

Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean

Oxidative stress can contribute to the development of diseases, and may originate from exposures to toxicants commonly found in air pollution and cigarette smoke such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Yet, as ...

Reactions of amines with ozone and chlorine: Two novel oxidative methods to evaluate the N-DBP formation potential from dissolved organic nitrogen

Karim-Alexandre Essaied, Urs von Gunten

The composition of oxidant-reactive dissolved organic nitrogen (DON) is poorly characterized, although its ozonation is likely to form a great variety of disinfection by-products containing a nitrogen-oxygen bond (NDBPs). In this study, two chemical oxidat ...

Reactions of nitrogen-containing compounds with ozone: kinetics and mechanisms

Sung Eun Lim

Nitrogen-containing moieties are widespread in natural waters in dissolved organic nitrogen and micropollu-tants. They are often susceptible to an electrophilic attack of ozone because of the electron-rich nature of the neutral form of nitrogen in organic ...

CO2 and CO/H-2 Conversion to Methoxide by a Uranium(IV) Hydride

Rosario Scopelliti, Marinella Mazzanti, Marta Falcone

Here we show that a scaffold combining siloxide ligands and a bridging oxide allows the synthesis and characterization of the stable dinuclear uranium(IV) hydride complex [K-2{U(OSi((OBu)-Bu-t)(3))(3)(mu-O)(mu-H)(2)}], 2, which displays high reductive ...
