Controlling selectivity in the reductive activation of CO2 by mixed sandwich uranium(iii) complexes by Tsoureas, N, Castro, L, Kilpatrick, A, Cloke, FGN, Maron, L

“…Electrochemical studies on both the uranium(III) complexes and the dimeric uranium(IV) CO2 reduction products have been carried out and all exhibit quasi reversible redox processes; in particular, the similarities in the U(III)/U(IV) redox couples suggest that the selectivity in the outcome of CO2 reductive activation by these complexes is steric in origin rather than electronic. …”

The aerodynamics of turbomachines for high–enthalpy gas heating by Karefyllidis, N

“…</p> <br> <p>In response to the urgent demand to reduce industrial CO₂ emissions and achieve net-zero by 2050, a new class of electrically-driven, energy-imparting turbomachines referred to as the turbo-heaters have been developed. These machines fundamentally aim to convert mechanical energy into internal energy without pressurising the gas, enabling ultra-high-enthalpy gas heating for a range of high-temperature industrial applications. …”
