AI Article Synopsis
- Hydrogen peroxide significantly boosts the effectiveness of hydrocarbons in selectively reducing nitrogen oxides (NOx) to nitrogen.
- This process takes place over Ag/alumina catalysts, which are materials made from silver and aluminum oxide.
- The research highlights the potential of hydrogen peroxide in improving emission control technologies.
Article Abstract
It is shown that hydrogen peroxide enhances substantially selective reduction of NOx to nitrogen with hydrocarbons over Ag/alumina catalysts.

To mitigate the exhaustion of hydrocarbon fuels and the rise of pollutants, one can use biofuels in diesel engines for power generation. This study examines the possibility of enhancing the performance and reducing the pollutions of a compressed ignition engine using methyl ester made from cotton silk seed oil. This study aimed to assess the energy, energy efficiency, and emissions (3E) of the Kirloskar engine operating at 1800 rpm.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the redox balance in subcutaneous and retroperitoneal fat pads of male and female Wistar rats.
Materials And Methods: The study analyzed the activity and gene expression of the antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase, along with the production of NADPH oxidases dependent on HO and gene expression of NOX1, NOX2, and NOX4.
Results: The retroperitoneal fat pad in males compared with females had greater NOX2 and NOX4 expression, along with higher superoxide dismutase activity.

Plastic waste's dual characteristics of "resource" and "pollution" led to the prevalence of trade. The Global Plastic Waste Trade Network (GPWTN) is heterogeneous, and its structure is susceptible to the influence of key countries within it. However, there is a shortage of research on the key countries and trade drivers influencing GPWTN evolution.

Chlorine radicals (Cl) are highly reactive and affect the fate of air pollutants. Several field studies in China have revealed elevated levels of daytime molecular chlorine (Cl), which, upon photolysis, release substantial amounts of Cl but are poorly represented in current chemical transport models. Here, we implemented a parametrization for the formation of daytime Cl through the photodissociation of particulate nitrate in acidic environments into a regional model and assessed its impact on coastal air quality during autumn in South China.

This work examines the impact of the electrification of the Holon-Bat Yam passenger train line (central Israel) on air pollutant concentrations using data collected from air quality monitoring stations that operated at the train stations across the electrified train line. We present statistically significant reduction in the annual average NO, NO and NO concentrations (29-45%, 79-85% and 65-75%, respectively), attributed to the electrification of the passenger train line. The drop in the NO and NO concentrations was much stronger than in the NO concentrations, since NO is the main nitrogen species emitted by diesel locomotives.
