Different steady states in a toluene biodegrading biofilter were explored experimentally and numerically. Experimental results showed that a gradual increase of the toluene inlet concentration over several weeks leads to a consistently low exit concentration, with a drastic increase at an inlet concentration change from 7.7 to 8.5 g m<sup>-3</s ...

The synthesis and incorporation of a tosylated phosphoramidite linker containing a disulfide bond is described. Incorporation of the linker into short DNA and RNA oligomers proceeded efficiently using automated solid phase synthesis. Treatment of the support bound oligonucleotide followed by cleavage from the solid support provided a variety of common f ...

Purpose of review: Companies increasingly set science-based targets (SBTs) for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We review literature on SBTs to understand their potential for aligning corporate emissions with the temperature goal of the Paris Agreement. Recent findings: SBT adoption by larger, more visible companies in high-income countries has accel ...

Understanding the fate and behavior of spilled oil on the shoreline is crucial for helping decision-makers make trade-offs between natural attenuation and shoreline treatments. In this study, primary processes of oil attenuation and translocation on the shoreline, including penetration, washout, and biodegradation, have been considered to develop a nume ...
