The moisture contents after the chemical treatments and oven-drying had dropped significantly for both sawdust-based adsorbents (Table 1). The FT-IR (ATR) spectroscopy was carried out to analyse the spectral pattern of SD samples pre- and post-chemical treatment (see Figs. 3 and 4). The ...
Reservoirs are a globally significant source of methane (CH4) to the atmosphere. However, emission rate estimates may be biased low due to inadequate monitoring during brief periods of elevated emission rates (that is, hot moments). Here we investigate CH4bubbling (that is, ebullition) during per...
Almost all surfaces sensitive to the ambient environment are covered by water, whereas the impacts of water on surface-dominated colloidal quantum dot (CQD) semiconductor electronics have rarely been explored. Here, strongly hydrogen-bonded water on hydroxylated lead sulfide (PbS) CQD is identified. ...
SARS-CoV-2 is a highly contagious virus and is causing a global pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 infection depends on the recognition of and binding to the cellular receptor human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) through the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein, and disruption of ...
On March 27, a total of 5 companies lifted the ban on restricted shares. The total number of shares unbanned was 964.904 million shares. Based on the latest closing price, the total unbanned market value was 1,285 billion yuan. United Water, Cambridge Technology, and Changchuan Technology had...
A radiative cooled-cold collection (RadiCold) module is developed to cool water to 10.6°C below ambient at noon under stationary conditions. The effects of different weather conditions (wind speed, precipitable water, and cloud cover) on the performance of radiative cooling have been investigated....
Oxidative cross-coupling of two luteolin occurs in a narrow pH range from 9.5 to 12.5, with optimal pH at 11.5 (Supplementary Fig.46A) and the yield dropped quickly at pH above 13.0. For the cross-coupling reaction between two different flavones, the pH profile is dependent on individual fla...
still change. When the river channel is at 1000 m3/s under the action of long-term small water, or silting thickness is about 0.53 m, the main stream next to the project moves upwards about 1170 m along the way. In the case of a large flood, such as 8000 m3/s, or scouring depth...
The deployment of smart water grids offers many benefits also to the end-users, that is, the clients of water utilities [3]. The real-time data collected on water quality and the consumption along with the respective knowledge extracted are used to develop environmental awareness and organize ca...
Allows the DS to read the unique serial number of each gamepad, enabling auto-recovery of dropped gamepads even if two gamepads of the same model drop. (NOTE: unfortunately this does not apply to Etpark gamepads, because they do not have a unique serial). Reading the unique serial number...
