Article Synopsis
  • A double network hydrogel, FeO@LH, was developed from lignosulfonate and polyacrylamide with embedded FeO nanoparticles to effectively remove lead (Pb) from contaminated soil.
  • The hydrogel showed a high adsorption capacity for Pb(II) at 143.11 mg/g and achieved a 22.3% removal efficiency through various mechanisms like electrostatic adsorption and cation exchange.
  • FeO@LH not only reduces Pb but also lowers cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) levels, while improving soil quality indicators, and maintains over 75% recovery after 90 days of use, proving its biosafety through toxicity tests on zebrafish larvae.

Chicken feathers represent a viable material for producing biochar adsorbents. Traditional slow pyrolysis methods often result in sulfur element losses from chicken feathers, whereas hydrothermal reactions generate substantial amounts of nutrient-rich hydrothermal liquor. Magnesium-modified high-sulfur hydrochar MWF was synthesized through magnesium modification, achieving a S content of 3.

Cadmium (Cd) contamination in agricultural soil has been an elevated concern due to the high health risks associated with the transfer through the soil-food chain, particularly in the case of rice. Recently, there has numerous researches on the use of nanoparticle-loaded materials for heavy metal-polluted soil remediation, resulting in favorable outcomes. However, there has been limited research focus on the field-scale application and recovery.

Brevilin A (BA) is the primary component of Centipeda minima, which is widely used in Chinese traditional medicine. The anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor properties of BA have been established; however, its function in bone metabolism is not well understood. This study revealed that concentrations of BA below 1.

The development of integrated circuits has increased the size of chip interconnects, which has brought challenges to interconnect design in chip packages. The closer the spacing between interconnects, the higher the space utilization, which can cause severe crosstalk problems in high-speed circuits. In this paper, we applied delay-insensitive coding to the design of high-speed package interconnects.
