Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows have several applications in a wide area of engineering such as industrialized processes, including generating MHD electrical power, processing of magnetic materials, etc. The present examination focuses on incorporating the induced magnetic field (IMF) and multiple slips on the convective MHD Casson nanofluid flow over an elongating sheet with Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects. Heat source/sink, non-linear radiation, and suction/injection impacts are added to strengthen the study.

A novel and simple one-pot deep eutectic solvent-based solvothermal method has been developed for the synthesis of FeVO/reduced graphene oxide (FeV/RGO) nanocomposite. The band gap of FeV decreased upon anchoring with RGO.

The physical and chemical properties of the synthesized catalysts were characterized, and the effect of different experimental factors on the biodiesel yield was studied. It was revealed that the CaO-TiO nano-catalyst displayed bifunctional properties, has both basic and acid phases, and leads to various effects on the catalyst activity in the transesterification process.

Pharmaceuticals, organic pollutants, heavy metal ions, endocrine-disrupting substances, microorganisms, and others are examples of persistent organic chemicals whose effects are unknown because they have recently entered the environment and are displaying up in wastewater treatment facilities. Pharmaceutical pollutants in discharged wastewater have become a danger to animals, marine species, humans, and the environment.

In recent years, transcutaneous capnography (PtcCO2) has emerged as a noninvasive method of estimating PaCO2. We hypothesized that PtcCO2 can be used as a substitute for PaCO2 in the calculation of V d/V t.
