Convenient Synthesis of Carbazoles without Precious Metal Catalysts
Executive Summary Carbazoles are structures that have two benzene rings on either side of a five-membered ring that contains nitrogen. They are used in a wide variety of photochemical and electrochemical applications including pharma, biomedical, OLEDs, pigments and batteries. However, the current synthesis of carbazoles requires harsh temperatures,...

Process for Depolymerizing Recycled Polystyrenes
Executive Summary Each year, billions of lbs of polystyrene and styrene copolymers are discarded as waste and very little is recycled. While some technologies have attempted pyrolysis in fluidized bed reactors or solvent processes to convert the polystyrene back to monomer, high costs, long process times and a myriad of reaction products have...

Rapid Process for Depolymerizing Recycled PET
Executive Summary Each year, billions of lbs of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) are discarded as waste. While some of the material is separated, recycled and incorporated into new materials, the degradation of the polymers back to their original monomers (a.k.a. chemical recycling) remains prohibitive...

Engineered Shell Proteins to Enable Electron Transfer Across the Shell of a Bacterial Microcompartment
INTRODUCTION Bacterial microcompartments (BMCs) are organelles used by various bacteria to encapsulate metabolic pathways into a proteinaceous shell. Because of their attributes (self-assembling modules, optimization of the reactions in their lumen.) they have potential as catalytic bioreactors that can be customized to support new metabolic functions....
