Enhancing Cellulose Reactivity in Textile Waste via Cold-Alkali Swelling

Global fiber demand is rising rapidly, yet less than 1% of discarded textiles are recycled into new materials. Here, cold-alkali swelling followed by acid reprecipitation was investigated as a pretreatment to improve cellulose accessibility and reactivity in textile-waste feedsto...

Deep learning-based surrogate model for generation of wood microstructures

A machine learning-based surrogate model for efficient wood microstructure generation compatible with a physics-based model is developed. The model is based on the U-Net neural network, a variant of convolutional neural network which, due to its architecture, is suitable for imag...
