The techno-economic performance and CO2 equivalent (CO2eq) reduction potential of bio-based aromatic production cases with without capture storage (CCS) have been evaluated compared to those fossil-based production. bio-cases include tail gas reactive pyrolysis (TGRP), catalytic (CP), hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL), gasification-methanol-aromatics (GMA), Diels-Alder furan/furfural combined lig...

We present two full years of continuous C6–C8 aromatic compound measurements by PTR-MS at the KCMP tall tower (Minnesota, US) and employ GEOS-Chem nested grid simulations in a Bayesian inversion to interpret the data in terms of new constraints on US aromatic emissions. Based on the tall tower data, we find that the RETRO inventory (year-2000) overestimates US C6–C8 aromatic emissions by factor...

The concept of incremental aerosol reactivity is introduced, and the incremental aerosol reactivities of a number of important anthropogenic and biogenic hydrocarbons are investigated for four ambient scenarios. The incremental aerosol reactivity, defined as a change in the secondary organic aerosol mass produced (in μg m-3) per unit change of parent organic reacted (in ppb), is a measure of th...

Reductive catalytic fractionation of biomass has recently emerged as a powerful lignin extraction and depolymerization method to produce monomeric aromatic oxygenates in high yields. Here, bifunctional molybdenum-based polyoxometalates supported on titania (POM/TiO2 ) are shown to promote tandem hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) and alkylation reactions, converting lignin-derived oxygenated aromatics in...

Perfluorinated aromatics and heteroaromatics are versatile reagents for the modification of amino acids, peptides proteins. This is principally because they undergo rapid selective nucleophilic substitution reactions with biological nucleophiles. They are, therefore, exciting tools which to modulate activities drug-like properties natural synthetic biomolecules in drug discovery append, example...

Abstract Aromatic chemicals play indispensable roles in our daily lives, having broad applications household goods, textiles, healthcare, electronics and automotive, but their production currently relies on fossil resources that have heavy environmental burdens. Synthesis of aromatic from bio-based would be a viable approach to improve sustainability. However, very few methods are available for...

Abstract Fuel formulation with the particular selection of fuel components is a promising approach that offers reduction harmful emissions without altering combustion system performance. Each component has its own characteristics and hence contribution to emissions. Aromatic one main fossil-based fuels strong correlation formation particulate matter (PM) Besides, aromatics presence in essential...

Petroleum products consist mainly of aliphatics, aromatics, asphaltenes and resins. After oil exploitation, the concentrations resins are high in reservoirs; however, they also petroleum pollutants most recalcitrant to degradation, leading viscosity. A sizable amount work has been dedicated understand degradation mechanisms aliphatics aromatics; comparison, little carried out on asphaltene resi...

This review focuses on the heavier group 13–15 element-containing heterocycles of [4 n +2]-electron systems featuring classical and advanced aromatics.
