  • Methyl Mercaptan
    Methyl Mercaptan Methyl Mercaptan (CH3SH) CAS 74-93-1; UN 1064 Synonyms include methanethiol, mercaptomethane, thiomethanol, methyl sulfhydrate, and thiomethyl alcohol. • Persons exposed only to methyl mercaptan pose little risk of secondary contamination to personnel outside the Hot Zone. • Methyl mercaptan is a colorless flammable gas with unpleasant odor described as rotten cabbage. It is easily ignited. When heated to decomposition, it emits highly toxic fumes and flammable vapors. Vapors from liquified methyl mercaptan gas are heavier than air and may collect in low-lying areas. Olfactory fatigue may prevent adequate warning of hazardous concentrations. • Methyl mercaptan is highly irritant when it contacts moist tissues such as the eyes, skin, and upper respiratory tract. It can also induce headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, coma, and death. Ingestion of methyl mercaptan is unlikely since it is a gas at ambient temperatures. Description At room temperature (above 43 °F), methyl mercaptan is a colorless gas with an unpleasant odor described as rotten cabbage. It is slightly soluble in water. It is generally shipped as a liquified compressed gas. When heated to decomposition, it emits toxic fumes, such as sulfur dioxide, and flammable vapors. Methyl mercaptan should be stored in cool, well ventilated places. The main toxic effect of exposure to methyl mercaptan is irritation of the respiratory airway, skin, and eyes. Routes of Exposure Inhalation Inhalation is the major route of exposure to methyl mercaptan. An odor threshold of 0.002 ppm has been reported for methyl mercaptan, but olfactory fatigue may occur and thus, it may not provide adequate warning of hazardous concentrations.

    sensors Article Finite Element Modelling of Bandgap Engineered Graphene FET with the Application in Sensing Methanethiol Biomarker Paramjot Singh , Parsoua Abedini Sohi and Mojtaba Kahrizi * Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Concordia University, Montreal, QC H3G1M8, Canada; [email protected] (P.S.); [email protected] (P.A.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-51-48-482-424 (ext. 3089) Abstract: In this work, we have designed and simulated a graphene field effect transistor (GFET) with the purpose of developing a sensitive biosensor for methanethiol, a biomarker for bacterial infections. The surface of a graphene layer is functionalized by manipulation of its surface structure and is used as the channel of the GFET. Two methods, doping the crystal structure of graphene and decorating the surface by transition metals (TMs), are utilized to change the electrical properties of the graphene layers to make them suitable as a channel of the GFET. The techniques also change the surface chemistry of the graphene, enhancing its adsorption characteristics and making binding between graphene and biomarker possible. All the physical parameters are calculated for various variants of graphene in the absence and presence of the biomarker using counterpoise energy-corrected density functional theory (DFT). The device was modelled using COMSOL Multiphysics. Our studies show that the sensitivity of the device is affected by structural parameters of the device, the electrical properties of the graphene, and with adsorption of the biomarker. It was found that the devices made of graphene layers decorated with TM show higher sensitivities toward detecting the biomarker compared with those made by doped graphene layers.

PhD-thesis Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands – with references – with summaries in English and Dutch ISBN: 978-90-8504-787-2 Abstract Due to increasingly stringent environmental legislation car fuels have to be desulfurized to levels below 10 ppm in order to minimize negative effects on the environment as sulfur-containing emissions contribute to acid deposition (‘acid rain’) and to reduce the amount of particulates formed during the burning of the fuel. Moreover, low sulfur specifications are also needed to lengthen the lifetime of car exhaust catalysts.

  • Methanethiol-Dependent Dimethylsulfide Production in Soil Environments
    OPEN The ISME Journal (2017) 11, 2379–2390 www.nature.com/ismej ORIGINAL ARTICLE Methanethiol-dependent dimethylsulfide production in soil environments Ornella Carrión1, Jennifer Pratscher2, Andrew RJ Curson1, Beth T Williams1, Wayne G Rostant1, J Colin Murrell2 and Jonathan D Todd1 1School of Biological Sciences, University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK and 2School of Environmental Sciences, University of East Anglia, Norwich, UK Dimethylsulfide (DMS) is an environmentally important trace gas with roles in sulfur cycling, signalling to higher organisms and in atmospheric chemistry. DMS is believed to be predominantly produced in marine environments via microbial degradation of the osmolyte dimethylsulfoniopro- pionate (DMSP). However, significant amounts of DMS are also generated from terrestrial environments, for example, peat bogs can emit ~ 6 μmol DMS m − 2 per day, likely via the methylation of methanethiol (MeSH). A methyltransferase enzyme termed ‘MddA’, which catalyses the methylation of MeSH, generating DMS, in a wide range of bacteria and some cyanobacteria, may mediate this process, as the mddA gene is abundant in terrestrial metagenomes. This is the first study investigating the functionality of MeSH-dependent DMS production (Mdd) in a wide range of aerobic environments. All soils and marine sediment samples tested produced DMS when incubated with MeSH. Cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent methods were used to assess microbial community changes in response to MeSH addition in a grassland soil where 35.9% of the bacteria were predicted to contain mddA. Bacteria of the genus Methylotenera were enriched in the presence of MeSH. Furthermore, many novel Mdd+ bacterial strains were isolated. Despite the abundance of mddA in the grassland soil, the Mdd pathway may not be a significant source of DMS in this environment as MeSH addition was required to detect DMS at only very low conversion rates.

  • Structure and Spectroscopy of Methionyl-Methionine for Aquaculture
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Structure and spectroscopy of methionyl‑methionine for aquaculture Stewart F. Parker1*, Nicholas P. Funnell1, Kenneth Shankland2, Elena A. Kabova2, Thomas Häußner3, Hans‑Joachim Hasselbach3, Sascha Braune3, Christoph Kobler3 & Peter W. Albers4* The amino acid l‑methionine is an essential amino acid and is commonly used as a feed supplement in terrestrial animals. It is less suitable for marine organisms because it is readily excreted. It is also highly water soluble and this results in loss of the feed and eutrophication of the water. To address these problems, the dipeptide dl‑methionyl‑dl‑methionine (trade name: AQUAVI Met‑Met) has been developed as a dedicated methionine source for aquaculture. The commercial product is a mixture of a racemic crystal form of d‑methionyl‑d‑methionine/l‑methionyl‑l‑methionine and a racemic crystal form of d‑methionyl‑l‑methionine/l‑methionyl‑d‑methionine. In this work, we have computationally, structurally, spectroscopically and by electron microscopy characterised these materials. The microscopy and spectroscopy demonstrate that there is no interaction between the dd–ll and dl–ld racemates on any length scale from the macroscopic to the nanoscale. Te amino acid l-methionine ((2S)‐2‐amino‐4‐(methylsulfanyl)butanoic acid, Fig. 1) is an essential amino acid i.e. it cannot be synthesised in vivo1. Te industrial synthesis of methionine from hydrogen cyanide, methanethiol and acrolein2 results in the racemate, whilst pure l-methionine can be obtained by fermentation3. However, dl- methionine is a valuable food additive in animal nutrition4, as the “unnatural” d-methionine diastereoisomer can be converted to the desired l-form physiologically5.

  • The Impact of Technological Processes on Odorant Emissions at Municipal Waste Biogas Plants
    sustainability Article The Impact of Technological Processes on Odorant Emissions at Municipal Waste Biogas Plants Marta Wi´sniewska*, Andrzej Kulig and Krystyna Lelici ´nska-Serafin Faculty of Building Services, Hydro and Environmental Engineering, Warsaw University of Technology, 20 Nowowiejska Street, 00-653 Warsaw, Poland; [email protected] (A.K.); [email protected] (K.L.-S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 29 May 2020; Accepted: 3 July 2020; Published: 7 July 2020 Abstract: Municipal waste treatment is inherently associated with odour emissions. The compounds characteristic of the processes used for this purpose, and at the same time causing a negative olfactory sensation, are organic and inorganic sulphur and nitrogen compounds. The tests were carried out at the waste management plant, which in the biological part, uses the methane fermentation process and is also equipped with an installation for the collection, treatment, and energetic use of biogas. The tests include measurements of the four odorant concentrations and emissions, i.e., volatile organic compounds (VOCs), ammonia (NH3), hydrogen sulphide (H2S), and methanethiol (CH3SH). Measurements were made using a MultiRae Pro portable gas detector sensor. The tests were carried out in ten series for twenty measurement points in each series. The results show a significant impact of technological processes on odorant emissions. The types of waste going to the plant are also important in shaping this emission. On the one hand, it relates to the waste collection system and, on the other hand, the season of year. In addition, it has been proved that the detector used during the research is a valuable tool enabling the control of technological processes in municipal waste processing plants.

  • Methanethiol, a Potential New Feedstock in C1 Chemistry 4 December 2020
    Methanethiol, a potential new feedstock in C1 chemistry 4 December 2020 and hydrogen sulfide was already attempted 30 years ago. This led to the development of a class of alkali-promoted molybdenum sulfide (K/MoS2) catalysts which, despite their promise, has not yet made the direct synthesis process competitive enough compared to the conventional methanol route. For the next step, Yu explored the reaction mechanism of CH3SH synthesis in detail by advanced spectroscopic and microscopic techniques. These meticulous studies yielded a surprising outcome: instead of potassium (K), cesium (Cs) shows a much better performance in promoting the activity of the MoS2 catalysts. Miao Yu. Credit: Eindhoven University of Technology Moreover, it turned out that the MoS2 component is not needed at all—alkali sulfides alone can catalyze CH3SH synthesis. These insights make it possible to develop new catalysts that are much more cost Catalytic conversion of molecules with one carbon effective, bringing us one step closer to large-scale atom such as methane, carbon dioxide (CO2), CH3SH synthesis. methanol (CH3OH) and others into higher-value chemicals is of major importance for a viable and Now that there are prospects for CH3SH to become sustainable chemical industry. Ph.D. candidate a cheap commodity chemical, it is worthwhile to Miao Yu, of the TU/e Department of Chemical explore the conversion of this simple molecule to Engineering and Chemistry, explored the synthesis ethylene, which is the main building block for of an alternative building block, methanethiol polyethylene. To this end, it is necessary to make (CH3SH)—the sulfur analog of CH3OH—from cheap carbon-carbon bonds.

Abstract: Praseodymium (Pr)-promoted MCM-41 catalyst was investigated for the catalytic decom- position of methyl mercaptan (CH3SH). Various characterization techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption–desorption, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD) and carbon dioxide (CO -TPD), hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H -TPR), and X-ray 2 2 photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), were carried out to analyze the physicochemical properties of material. XPS characterization results showed that praseodymium was presented on the modified Citation: Cao, X.; Lu, J.; Zhao, Y.; catalyst in the form of praseodymium oxide species, which can react with coke deposit to prolong Tian, R.; Zhang, W.; He, D.; Luo, Y.
