Much effort has been devoted to develop new porous structures for methane storage. We report a new porous coordination framework showing exceptional methane uptakes (e.g. 263 v/v at 298 K and 65 bar) and adsorption enthalpies (21.6 kJ mol(-1)) as high as current record holders functionalized by open metal sites. Computational simulations demonstrated that the hierarchical pore structure consisting of single-wall nanocages has suitable sizes/shapes and organic binding sites to enforce not only strong host-methane and methane-methane interactions but also dense packing of methane molecules.

The routine monitoring of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) in drinking water has become an important task in the field of public health. In this study, a fluorinated covalent organic framework (COF) was synthesized at room temperature using tetra-(4-aminophenyl) methane (TAM) and 2,3,5, 6-tetrafluoro-terephthalal (TFTA) as building blocks and named as TAM-TFTA-COF. The adsorption characteristics of PFASs on the TAM-TFTA-COF were investigated through adsorption model-fitting and molecular calculation.

Hydroponic effluent (HE), enriched with inorganic nutrients, presents a viable, low-cost cultivation medium for microalgal biomass production and subsequent resource recovery. However, downstream processing, particularly biomass harvesting, remains a critical challenge for microalgal biorefineries. Therefore, the present study explored the potential of microalgal-fungal pellets (MAFP) in HE recycling for the production of biochemical-rich biomass.

The antimicrobial effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP) treatments on chill-stored seafood are well-documented, while their impact on the metabolic profile of seafood, especially the metabolome of fish flesh, and remains underexplored. Addressing this gap, this study investigates the effects of HHP on the metabolome of chill-stored rose shrimp by conducting multivariate data analysis based on untargeted proton nuclear magnetic resonance observations. Vacuum-packed rose shrimp samples were subjected to HHP at 0, 400, 500, and 600 MPa for 10 min and then stored at 2-4°C.

Among a plethora of mixtures, the methane (CH) and hydrogen (H) mixture has garnered considerable attention for multiple reasons, especially in the framework of energy production and industrial processes as well as ecological considerations. Despite the fact that the CH/H mixture performs many critical tasks, the presence of other gases, such as carbon dioxide, sulfur compounds like HS, and water vapor, leads to many undesirable consequences. Thus purification of this mixture from these gases assumes considerable relevance.

Leach bed reactors (LBRs) are dry anaerobic systems that can handle feedstocks with high solid content, like chicken manure, with minimal water addition. In this study, the chicken manure was mixed with zeolite, a novel addition, and packed in the LBR to improve biogas production. The resulting leachate was then processed in a continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR), where most of the methane was produced.
