Despite their environmental and health hazards, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are present in our everyday life (e.g., fuels and solvents). Their detection is of paramount importance for environmental and occupational ...

Due to the low chemical control effectiveness of citrus black spot, caused by the fungus Guignardia citricarpa at postharvest, and to the search for alternative control methods, this study aimed to evaluate the in vitro ...

Conjugated polymers have been extensively studied in recent years, with high technological potential for application as an active layer of organic devices. In this context, polythiophene derivatives have attracted attention ...

A simulation study of a monolithic reactor for the catalytic oxidation of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) over a Mn-Cu mixed oxide catalyst is presented. A heterogeneous 1D mathematical model is selected to describe the ...

We studied the VOCs profile of three red wine varieties, produced in the Valley of Tulum (San Juan-Argentina), over 4 consecutive years. Our main goal was to verify if different wine varieties could be differentiated from ...

In this contribution a theoretical study of the thermal effects due to heat losses on monolithic reactors for the catalytic combustion of VOC is carried out. To describe the performance of the reactor under steady-state ...
