Perceptions and experience of rural older people in oral health management in China: a qualitative study.

Background: To explore the perceptions and experience of oral health management among rural older people in China.

Methods: Qualitative methodologies were used in this study. Face-to-face semi-structured interviews were conducted.

Solidification/stabilization of highly toxic arsenic-alkali residue by MSWI fly ash-based cementitious material containing Friedel's salt: Efficiency and mechanism.

Arsenic-alkali residue (AAR) and MSWI fly ash (MFA) are hazardous wastes, which still lack effective treatment methods. In this study, a novel solidification/stabilization (S/S) method for AAR with MFA-based cementitious material (MFA-CM) containing Friedel's salt was proposed. The efficiency and mechanism of S/S was mainly focused.

The psychological status of 8817 hospital workers during COVID-19 Epidemic: A cross-sectional study in Chongqing.

Background: There was an outbreak of COVID-19 towards the end of 2019 in China, which spread all over the world rapidly. The Chinese healthcare system is facing a big challenge where hospital workers are experiencing enormous psychological pressure. This study aimed to (1) investigate the psychological status of hospital workers and (2) provide references for psychological crisis intervention in the future.

Cotreatment of MSWI Fly Ash and Granulated Lead Smelting Slag Using a Geopolymer System.

Municipal solid waste incineration fly ash (MSWI FA) and granulated lead smelting slag (GLSS) are toxic industrial wastes. In the present study, granulated lead smelting slag (GLSS) was pretreated as a geopolymer precursor through the high-energy ball milling activation process, which could be used as a geopolymeric solidification/stabilization (S/S) reagent for MSWI FA. The S/S process has been estimated through the physical properties and heavy metals leachability of the S/S matrices.
