We present a new experimental configuration for the study of size-dependent, angle-resolved photoelectron and photoion spectra of weakly bound ultrafine aerosol particles targeted at particle sizes below ~20 nm. It combines single photon ionization by a tunable, table-top vacuum ultraviolet

We proposed a method for the deodorising and dewatering of biosolids. In the proposed method, liquefied dimethyl ether (DME) was used as an extractant for odorous components and water. We developed a bench-scale experiment to almost completely deodorize and dewater

Tungstated zirconia is a robust solid acid catalyst for light alkane (C(4)-C(8)) isomerization. Several structural models for catalytically active sites have been proposed, but the topic remains controversial, partly because of the absence of direct structural imaging information on the

Theoretical calculations have been carried out using ab initio MP2 and B3LYP density functional methods to investigate the interaction between fluorinated dimethyl ethers (nF = 1-5) and water. Depending on the number of F atoms implanted on the dimethyl ethers

The acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of dimethyl ether (DME) to methanol was examined using ab initio density functional metadynamics simulations. Diffusion of the acid proton from the aqueous medium, leading to the formation of a protonated DME, is 12.3 kcal mol(-1) activated
