Design of hierarchical hollow nanoheterostructure materials through interfacial and defect engineering is an innovative approach for achieving optimal charge separation dynamics and photon harvesting efficiency. Herein, we have described a facile technique to fabricate hollow MOF-derived C, N-doped-CoO (C, N-CoO) dodecahedral particles enwrapped with MgInS nanosheets for enhanced N reduction performance. ZIF-67 was initially used as a sacrificial template to prepare hollow C, N-CoO using a carbonization route followed by low-temperature calcination treatment.

The cooling power of radiative cooling (RC) coatings depends not only on the radiative properties of the coating but also on environmental variables. In tropical environments, the cooling performance of RC coatings deteriorates due to high humidity and high solar radiation. Previous studies focused on developing high solar-reflective coatings to achieve subambient cooling in tropical environments.

Neutrophils are vital for immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative agent of tuberculosis (TB), yet their heterogeneous nature suggests a complex role in TB pathogenesis. Here, we identify two distinct neutrophil populations based on CD101 expression, highlighting their divergent roles in TB. CD101-negative (CD101) neutrophils, which resemble immature, pro-inflammatory granulocytes, exhibit reduced Mtb phagocytosis compared to their mature, CD101-positive (CD101) counterparts.

The optimal design of cement slurry by balancing various cement additives and cement is critical for effective oil well cementation job. However, given adverse circumstances of application, existing additives may not be sufficient to perform suitably in challenging conditions, leading to premature cement hydration, formation of microcracks, and gas channeling pathways. Thus, this study explores the use of a single-step silica nanofluid (NP size: 5-10, 90-100, and 250-300 nm and concentration: 1, 3, and 5 wt %) as an additive and explores its effect on thickening time, fluid loss, and rheological behavior of class G cement slurry at high-pressure and high-temperature (HPHT) conditions (135 °C and 3625 psi).

In recent years, there has been a notably increased interest in the study of multivariate interactions and emergent higher-order dependencies. This is particularly evident in the context of identifying synergistic sets, which are defined as combinations of elements whose joint interactions result in the emergence of information that is not present in any individual subset of those elements. The scalability of frameworks such as partial information decomposition (PID) and those based on multivariate extensions of mutual information, such as O-information, is limited by combinational explosion in the number of sets that must be assessed.

Article Synopsis
  • Bauxite residue, a waste from alumina extraction, is being explored for reuse, specifically in treating oil sands process-affected water (OSPW) and supplementing municipal wastewater treatment.
  • Activated bauxite residue (ABR) is created through a reduction roasting process, improving its ability to act as an adsorbent for removing harmful substances in wastewater.
  • ABR significantly reduced contaminants in both OSPW (like acid-extractable organics and estrogenicity) and municipal wastewater (including fecal coliform and total phosphorus), but higher dosages can increase cytotoxicity, indicating the need for further optimization before widespread use.
