Electrochemical Regeneration of Highly Stable and Sustainable Cellulose/Graphene Adsorbent Saturated with Dissolved Organic Dye.

Electrochemical regeneration of adsorbents presents a cost-effective and environmentally friendly approach. Yet, its application to 3D structured adsorbents such as cellulose/graphene-based aerogels remains largely unexplored. This study introduces a method for producing these aerogels, highlighting their significant adsorption capacity for dissolved organic pollutants and resilience during electrochemical regeneration.

Fire activity across Cretaceous/Paleogene transition: Evidence from pyrogenic biomarkers preserved in the Mahadeo-Cherrapunji section, Meghalaya, India.

Previous studies on high concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) present in the shallow-marine Um-Sohryngkew River (USR) Cretaceous/Paleogene Boundary (KPB) section suggested regional fire incidences and biotic stress on life. However, such observations at the USR site have not been confirmed so far anywhere else in the region, we, therefore, do not know whether the signal was local or regional. Thus, to find out charred organic markers associated with the shelf facies KPB outcrop (at a distance of over 5 km) of the Mahadeo-Cherrapunji road (MCR) section, PAHs were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy.
