Carbon Capture and Storage
Jon Gibbins,Hannah Chalmers +1 more
TL;DR: Carbon capture and storage (CCS) covers a broad range of technologies that are being developed to allow carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuel use at large point sources to be transported to safe geological storage, rather than being emitted to the atmosphere.

Review of relationship between indoor and outdoor particles: I/O ratio, infiltration factor and penetration factor
Chun Chen,Bin Zhao +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an up-to-date revision for both experiment and modeling on relationship between indoor and outdoor particles, using three different parameters: indoor/outdoor (I/O) ratio, infiltration factor and penetration factor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life cycle Assessment and its Application to Process Selection, Design and Optimisation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of some of the newly emerging applications of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) in the chemical and process industries and present a framework for process design by simultaneously optimising on environmental, technical, economic and other criteria.

The valorization of plastic solid waste (PSW) by primary to quaternary routes: From re-use to energy and chemicals
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an in depth analysis regarding the recovery, treatment and recycling routes of plastic solid waste (PSW), as well as the main advantages and disadvantages associated with every route.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of volatile organic compound by activated carbon fiber
TL;DR: In this article, a mathematical model was developed to predict the VOC breakthrough characteristics on the activated carbon fiber (ACF) under dynamic conditions, including the effects of the gas-particle film mass transfer resistance, adsorbent pore diffusion and the adsorption/desorption rates within the pore.
