Competitive adsorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on phosphorus tailing-modified sludge biochar provides mechanistic insights.

Biochar has been widely used to solve the wastewater pollution of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). However, the competition of PAHs with different benzene ring numbers (e.g.

Ultrasonic-assisted nanofiltration separation recovering salvianolic acid B from ethanol wastewater.

The transformation of salvianolic acid B brought on by heat treatment recovery of ethanol eluent, which is a difficult problem in pharmaceutical technology, affects the purity of raw material when the medicinal raw material salvianolic acid B is purified by resin. Ultrasonic-assisted nanofiltration separation (UANS) was first employed to improve efficiency of resource utilization by regulating rejection and separating salvianolic acid B and rosmarinic acid from organic pharmaceutical wastewater. The rejection was related to three variables: ultrasonic power, pH, and ethanol concentration.

Simulated climate warming decreases fruit number but increases seed mass.

Climate warming is changing plant sexual reproduction, having consequences for species distribution and community dynamics. However, the magnitude and direction of plant reproductive efforts (e.g.
