Abstract Drying is a critical post-harvest operation essential for preserving agricultural product quality; however, conventional methods are highly energy-intensive. To address this, integrating renewable energy has become vital. The objective of this study is to provide a comprehensive systematic review of biomass–solar hybrid dryers from 2016 to 2026, evaluating their performance, modeling, de…

Abstract The reductive decarboxylation is a reaction which is used for the reduction of silver(I)-ions to solid silver in manifold applications. Despite the reductive decarboxylation is well investigated, details for the special case of silver citrate regarding the reaction mechanism and the structure of the products remained unrevealed. Herein, we monitor the decomposition reaction of solid silv…
