Impact of processing and storage on citrus fiber functionality: Insights from spectroscopic techniques.

To deliver their functionality when used in applications, citrus fibers need to be rehydrated. Factors such as chemical composition, structural organization as well as chemical surface composition are known to influence this functionality. Processing and storage conditions can affect these parameters, making it challenging to maintain stable functionality.

Selective Photocatalytic Dehydrogenation of Formic Acid by an -Restructured Copper-Postmetalated Metal-Organic Framework under Visible Light.

Formic acid is considered as one of the most promising liquid organic hydrogen carriers. Its catalytic dehydrogenation process generally suffers from low activity, low reaction selectivity, low stability of the catalysts, and/or the use of noble-metal-based catalysts. Herein we report a highly selective, efficient, and noble-metal-free photocatalyst for the dehydrogenation of formic acid.
