This research demonstrates how the engineering concept of dynamic similitude can be successfully applied to a lab-scale carbon capture column, allowing its performance to accurately predict that of a larger pilot-scale system. Accurately scaling these technologies is a crucial step for the rapid, widespread deployment of carbon management solutions needed to effectively limit global temperature increase and mitigate the severe impacts of climate change.

The article underscores the need to reform the health claim evaluation process for foods by adopting a holistic approach that integrates multiple nutritional and contaminant attributes. This approach should involve cumulative risk assessment and risk-benefit analysis to provide a more accurate picture of food's health impacts. Such reforms align with global sustainability goals and would help address the complexities of modern food systems, ultimately promoting better health outcomes and environmental stewardship.
