In order to broaden the applications of PNFs, chemical modification offers a simple way to incorporate specific functionalization throughout the PNF fiber backbone. To this end, we demonstrate a highly efficient amidation of self-assembled PNFs from bovine serum albumin (BSA) and hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL), using adipic acid dihydrazide (ADH) and aminoacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal (AADA) as bioorthogonal modifiers, offering the possibility to form covalent networks via click chemistry. Critically, we compare (dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4-methylmorpholinium chloride (DMTMM)-mediated amidations with the widely used <i>N</i>-(3-(dimethylamino)propyl)-<i>N</i>′-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride and <i>N</i>-hydroxysuccimine (EDC/NHS) mediation system, showcasing superior reaction efficiency and reduced pH dependency in the case of DMTMM. Importantly, the PNF backbone remained largely intact, albeit some shortening of the fibers was evidenced. As a proof of concept, aldehyde-functionalized HEWL PNFs and hydrazide-functionalized BSA PNFs were mixed together to demonstrate kinetically bioorthogonal hydrazone cross-linking, relevant for many biomedical applications. Overall, this work provides an efficient and simple approach for modifying PNFs, which could find use in applications ranging from biomedicine (drug delivery or tissue engineering) to cosmetics, food production. and agriculture.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144192729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article aims to estimate the environmental impacts of SCP production using biomethane from fish industry waste through an ex-ante Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), focusing on scaling up a lab-scale process. The proposed scenarios include SCP production with biofertilizer recovery (baseline scenario) and the additional valorization of biomethane as grid gas, electricity, and/or heat (modified scenarios). The analysis follows a cradle-to-gate approach, and recovered materials and energy were included by expanding the system boundaries to account for avoided primary production. Results revealed significant differences between laboratory-scale and industrial-scale impacts, with reductions ranging from 60% to 96% across all impact categories when scaled up. Focusing on the industrial scale, the baseline scenario showed the poorest environmental performance, mainly due to biogenic methane emissions from unutilized biogas. In contrast, modified scenarios that incorporated various biomethane utilization pathways achieved substantial reductions across all impact categories. These findings suggest that the optimal system configuration combines the recovery of biomethane, heat, and electricity, underscoring the need for further research into its technical and economic feasibility within the food sector. This research highlights the utility of LCA in evaluating emerging technologies, identifying key environmental challenges, and guiding decision-making at early development stages.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144183792","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Wet impregnation is the established synthesis procedure for preparing silica-PEI. However, excessive quantities of organic solvents, particularly methanol, have invariably been used for both PEI alkoxylation and polymer mixing with silica. This study demonstrates an organic solvent-free synthesis method for 1) mesoporous silica preparation from sodium silicate solution, 2) PEI alkoxylation, and 3) the subsequent impregnation of silica-PEI using minimal water, typically with a water-to-silica mass ratio not exceeding 1.0. For large scale samples (up to 5 kg) preparation, controlled drying is essential to retain approximately 5 Wt.% moisture, preserving CO<sub>2</sub> capture performance. APEIs can be tailored for direct air capture (30 °C) and industrial processes (50 °C) by controlling the alkoxylation chemistry and degree. Silica-APEI exhibits enhanced oxidative stability and reduced moisture coadsorption, which extend operational lifespan and lower regeneration energy consumption. This water-based synthesis eliminates the need for excess organic solvents, such as methanol, preventing volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, reducing drying energy consumption, and enhancing sustainability, making large-scale production commercially viable.","PeriodicalId":25,"journal":{"name":"ACS Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144183793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, an electron redistribution strategy is proposed: By anchoring the active metal gallium to the Hβ molecular sieve framework, a Lewis and Brønsted acid pair that can dynamically adapt the reaction path is constructed. Based on the Friedel–Crafts acylation reaction, it was revealed that the Ga<sup>3+</sup> center undergoes a valence transition during the catalytic process, which synergizes with the Brønsted acidic site (Si–OH-Al) to regulate the adsorption configuration of the intermediates, and improves the catalytic efficiency of the modified Hβ molecular sieves. Compared to the conventional sulfuric acid method (<i>E</i> = 5.2), a yield of 89.3% was achieved with an <i>E</i> coefficient of 0.8, a reduction of 85%. By optimizing the reaction temperature to 250 °C (300 °C for the acid-catalyzed method), energy consumption was reduced by 37%, while sulfonation waste was reduced by 1.6 tons per ton of product. The hierarchical pore structure of Ga–Hβ enhanced molecular diffusion efficiency, reducing activation energy by 35% (40.07 kJ·mol<sup>–1</sup> for Ga–Hβ vs 62.11 kJ·mol<sup>–1</sup> for H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>) and enabling four stable regeneration cycles with 80% activity retention.

The key to achieving high hydrocracking activity and BTX yield is to design bifunctional catalysts with moderate hydrogenation and ring-opening cracking capability, which relies on appropriate acid and textural properties as well as suitable metal–support interactions. Herein, we designed hierarchical Ni/PTY (post-treatment Y) catalysts with open hierarchical pore structure, moderate acidity and highly dispersed small-sized Ni species via the pore-structure engineering of Y zeolites and the ethylenediamine-assisted impregnation strategy. The open hierarchical pore structure and tunable acidity of Ni/PTY catalysts optimized the balance between metal–acid sites, which was beneficial to the selectivity of the hydrogenation route, isomerization route and cracking route. As a result, the optimized Ni/PTY catalysts showed a superior naphthalene conversion of 88.7% and BTX yield of 62.5% with high turnover frequency values (TOF, 14.5 h<sup>–1</sup>) and reaction rate constants (<i>k</i><sub>HCK</sub>, 2.8 h<sup>–1</sup>).

We reveal that the average plant-specific CF is 9.0 tonne CO<sub>2</sub> per tonne of SG (tCO<sub>2</sub>/t), with a wide range of 6.8 ∼ 12.9 tCO<sub>2</sub>/t, due to variances in feedstocks and energy efficiency.
