Selective catalytic reduction denitration technology, abbreviated as SCR, is essential for the removal of nitrogen oxide from the flue gas of coal-fired power stations and has been widely used. Due to the strong demand for energy and the requirements for environmental protection, a large amount of SCR catalyst waste is produced. The spent SCR catalyst contains high-grade valuable metals, and proper disposal or treatment of the SCR catalyst can protect the environment and realize resource recycling.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFTea polyphenols (TPs), which are derived from tea extracts, are a class of chemicals containing polyphenol hydroxyls that have been observed to have strong anti-oxidative properties. Previous studies have demonstrated that TP can protect against hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury; however, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. In the present study, the mechanism underlying TPs protective effects against I/R-induced liver damage was investigated, focusing on its anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic bioactivities.
