Recently published discoveries of acoustic- and optical-mode inversion in the phonon spectrum of certain metals became the first realistic example of noninteracting topological bosonic excitations in existing materials. However, the observable physical and ...
Lignocellulosic biomass seems promising renewable feedstocks for the production of biofuels and other value-added products. It is composed of cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin, which are connected by several intra-and inter-polymer linkages. For effecti ...
Biomass chemical conversion processes allow the production of solid, liquid and gaseous biofuels, which can substitute almost any kind of fossil fuel and the associated greenhouse gas emissions. Despite this potential, high investment costs and conversion ...
The present opinion paper is focused on the phytoremediation of organic pollutants and is based on the lectures given by the author during the International Congress of Phytoremediation of Polluted Soils, held at Vigo, Spain, 29-30 July 2014. The aim of th ...
