The disposal of municipal solid waste (MSW) is a significant source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. As incineration becomes the primary method of MSW disposal in China, MSW incineration (MSWI) plants are expected to play a crucial role in mitigating GHG emissions in the waste sector. This study estimated the quarterly GHG emissions from two representative MSWI plants in Qingdao using a life-cycle assessment (LCA) approach.

Centrosomal dysregulation is closely linked to the genesis and progression of tumors. A comprehensive analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data has revealed that leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 45 (LRRC45), a centrosome linker protein crucial for maintaining centrosome cohesion and a member of the leucine-rich repeat-containing proteins (LRRCs) family, is significantly upregulated in bladder cancer. Notably, the elevated expression levels of LRRC45 were strongly correlated with a poor prognosis in patients.

Low-temperature thermal degradation of PCDD/Fs for incineration fly ash (IFA), as a novel and emerging technology approach, offers promising features of high degradation efficiency and low energy consumption, presenting enormous potential for application in IFA resource utilization processes. This review summarizes the concentrations, congener distributions, and heterogeneity characteristics of PCDD/Fs in IFA from municipal, medical, and hazardous waste incineration. A comparative analysis of five PCDD/Fs degradation technologies is conducted regarding their characteristics, industrial potential, and applicability.

The waste sector is a significant source of greenhouse gas(GHG) emissions and clarifying its emission trends and characteristics is the premise for formulating GHG emission reduction strategies. Using the IPCC inventory model, the GHG emissions from the municipal solid waste(MSW) sector in China during 2010 to 2020 were estimated. The results showed that GHG emissions increased from 42.

A novel helix hydrogel with a G-quartet structure was synthesized from guanosine (Gua) and its derivative 5'-guanosine monophosphate (5'-GMP) under a molecular crowding environment. The chirality of the hydrogel is adjusted by controlling the gelling speed. The chiral hydrogel can induce an achiral dye Thioflavin T (ThT) to realize circularly polarized fluorescence (CPL).

High-capacity and highly stable anode materials are some of the keys to the realization of the application of potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). Cobalt diselenide (CoSe) has been regarded as a high-potential anode material for PIBs. However, solving the problems of sluggish kinetics and large volumetric expansion during intercalation/deintercalation of K ions is always very challenging in terms of cobalt diselenide-based anode materials.

The formation of chirality of G-quartet materials has been of concern for a long time, however, the helix-handedness of G-quartet materials is still ambiguous, as well as the novel circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties. Here, we demonstrated that the handedness of G-quartet materials highly depends on their formation kinetics. By controlling the temperature or the initial concentration of reactants, we found that right-handed helical G-quartet nanostructures were synthesized in the slow process, while left-handed structures were synthesized in the fast process orderly stacking.

Right (R)- and left (L)-handed helical G-quartet nanostructures were synthesized for the first time simultaneously via the self-assembly of 5'-guanosine monophosphate (GMP), the helical handedness of which is well regulated by metal ions. These g-nanostructures were further applied as circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) templates to realize full-color R-/L-CPL and Förster resonance energy transfer CPL. The glum value reached 10-2, indicating their excellent template function for CPL materials design and application.
