This study explores the development of a Joule-heated reaction field utilizing an electrically driven spiral-shaped catalyst for efficient CO methanation. Infrared thermal imaging in an uninsulated reactor reveals a rapid and uniform temperature rise along the spiral structure. With a 10 W input, CO conversion reached 80%, while 75% conversion was maintained even at 5 W. The catalyst's twist angle played a crucial role in optimizing heat transfer and CO conversion by enhancing swirl flow. Long-term stability tests at 5 W demonstrated sustained methane production over 50 hours at 350 °C, highlighting the catalyst's durability and energy efficiency.

The long-term stability, mechanical properties, and interactions of modified teff starch with food components remain unclear. The effects of dual or multiple modifications on physicochemical properties and digestibility are also unexplored. This study investigates the modification of Teff starch through oxidation (sodium hypochlorite), cross-linking (citric acid), and enzymatic treatments (α-amylase, amyloglucosidase) to enhance its structural, physicochemical, and thermal properties.

Unraveling the potential of microalgal-bacterial granular sludge (MBGS) technology for sustainable treatment of ciprofloxacin (CIP)-laden wastewater and mitigation of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) remains limited. This study evaluated the performance of bacterial granular sludge (BGS) and MBGS systems in terms of nutrient and CIP removal, granular stability, and ARG attenuation under long-term exposure to CIP for the first time. While both systems achieved effective pollutant removal at low CIP concentrations (0.
