💫 Doctoral candidate Daniel Langerreiter at Aalto University is exploring different aspects of developing #photoactive hybrid materials and production processes of its components. 🧪 From solid-state synthesis of organic #dyes with #antimicrobial properties to pioneering novel #mechanochemical modification methods for #cellulose, Daniel develops techniques that significantly reduce the need for solvents in chemical processing. These techniques offer environmental benefits by reducing the need for fossil based solvent production and minimizing waste generation. In the future, Daniel aims to develop those projects further to create self-sterilizing materials in a more sustainable way. 🌿 His recent work has been published in Green Chemistry: 👉 DOIhttps://lnkd.in/du-TBxGz FinnCERES #Bioeconomy #Pulp&Paper #GreenChemistry

#ICIQSeminar | 🙌Thank you Prof. Concepcion Javier from Brookhaven National Laboratory for delivering a seminar about Catalysts and Mechanisms for CO2 Reduction and Water Oxidation Related to Solar Liquid Fuels 🌊 Prof. Javier Concepción presented a new mechanism for water oxidation catalysis (WOC) with molecular catalysts, a WOC platform that follow a ligand-based approach. These catalysts are very robust because they follow a “self-healing” mechanism. 🖇 Because the mechanism is ligand-based, no open coordination site is required and this enables the development of highly active molecular catalysts for water oxidation with first-row transition metals. 🎢 The results presented by Prof. Concepción demonstrated a cascade for CO to MeOH using organic hydrides. Cascade strategies using a combination of catalysts that can carry out some of the required multistep reactions are being pursued because achieving this goal with a single catalyst is difficult. 🔵Also thanks to our seminar sponsor BASF ICERCA - Centres de Recerca de Catalunya | SOMM Alliance | Barcelona Institute of Science and Technology (BIST)

#SCI2024 – XXVIII National Congress (Conference & Exhibition) will take place in Milan, Italy, next month! This year's theme, "Chemistry Elements of Future," will unite top chemists from around the globe to explore chemistry's vital role in tackling sustainable development challenges: circular economy, environmental preservation, climate change, energy solutions, health, and the future economy and society. We're excited to announce that our colleagues from CNR-ITM and the University of Calabria will present MEASURED Project, featuring the abstract “New generation of PVDF membranes preparation using γ-Valerolactone (GVL) as a green solvent for Membrane Distillation.” Discover how they are developing PVDF membranes with GVL, a renewable green solvent, offering a sustainable and economically competitive alternative to harmful solvents like NMP, DMA, and DMF. These innovative membranes exhibit excellent performance in Membrane Distillation (MD), with high porosity and stability, matching commercial membrane performance. Don't miss out on this cutting-edge research! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/dnqd3_8Y Stay tuned for more updates!

In our aim for a better understanding of the physicochemical behavior of Deep eutectic solvents (DESs), I am glad to share with you our latest publication at Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering. An artificial neural network (ANN) has been developed to accurately describe the viscosity of DESs and their mixtures with cosolvents, such as water and alcohols, which strongly modify this property. Congratulations to Luan Alencar, as the first author of this publication done at the Departament d'Enginyeria Química URV, as well as to coworkers Sabrina Belén Rodriguez Reartes (Universitat Rovira i Virgili) and Frederico Tavares (UFRJ - Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro).
