Hydrothermal conversion of microalgae into N-containing compounds

Conversion of Municipal Solid Wastes into Biochar through Hydrothermal Carbonization

In this study, the hydrothermal treatment of municipal solid wastes (MSWs) for the production of biochar as a renewable solid fuel was investigated. The properties of surrogate MSWs and mixtures of newspaper and vegetables were greatly improved by hydrothermal treatment and were similar to those of coal-like fuel substances. Hydrothermal treatment increased the calorific value, the fixed carbon...

Conversion of azides into diazo compounds in water.

Diazo compounds are in widespread use in synthetic organic chemistry but have untapped potential in chemical biology. We report on the design and optimization of a phosphinoester that mediates the efficient conversion of azides into diazo compounds in phosphate buffer at neutral pH and room temperature. High yields are maintained in the presence of common nucleophilic or electrophilic functiona...

A phosphine-mediated conversion of azides into diazo compounds.

N2 the mild: Diazo compounds are extremely versatile intermediates for synthetic organic chemistry, but their synthesis can be challenging in the presence of delicate functional groups. The Staudinger ligation has inspired a mild method for the conversion of a broad range of azides into their diazo compound derivatives through an acyl triazene intermediate.

An Automated Conversion of Documents Containing Math into SGML

Intelligent document understanding (IDU) systems convert scanned document pages into an electronic format which preserves layout and logical document structure in addition to document content. Most of the IDU experimental systems, however, lack the capability of full exploitation of recognition results, i.e., the reconstruction and utilization of complete documents. In this paper we present an ...
