For the purpose of solving the problem of low temperature and low turbidity water treatment, a pilot study was made on the treatment of Songhuajiang River raw water with low temperature and low turbidity by using membrane bioreactor (MBR) process, and the removal effects of organic pollutants and turbidity and membrane filtration period were also investigated. The results showed that the effluent turbidity was lower than 1 NTU and its removal efficiency was over 90%. The removal efficiency of permanganate index and UV254 were about 40% - 50% and 30% - 45%, respectively. The operation time of the MBR was as long as 60 - 70 hours. Adding powder activated carbon (PAC) has increased the organic pollutant removal efficiency but it has no significant influence on the membrane permeability. Therefore, the MBR was capable of effectively treating waters typically used for drinking water supplies, particularly when the low temperature and low turbidity water are treated. The effluent water quality of MBR was better than that of conventional process. PAC-MBR combined process can be used to enhance organic pollutants removal efficiency when raw water was polluted severely.

Maintaining human body temperature in both high and low-temperature environments is fundamental to human survival, necessitating high-performance thermal insulation materials to prevent heat exchange with the external environment. Currently, most fibrous thermal insulation materials are characterized by large weight, suboptimal thermal insulation, and inferior mechanical and waterproof performance, thereby limiting their effectiveness in providing thermal protection for the human body. In this study, lightweight, waterproof, mechanically robust, and thermal insulating polyamide-imide (PAI) grooved micro/nanofibrous aerogels were efficiently and directly assembled by electrospinning.

Microcavity exciton polaritons (polaritons) as part-light part-matter quasiparticles garner considerable attention for Bose-Einstein condensation at elevated temperatures. Recently, halide perovskites have emerged as promising room-temperature polaritonic platforms because of their large exciton binding energies and superior optical properties. However, currently, inducing room-temperature nonequilibrium polariton condensation in perovskite microcavities requires optical pulsed excitations with high excitation densities.

CaSiO[Formula: see text] perovskite (CaPv) is the last major mineral in the Earth's lower mantle whose elasticity remains largely unresolved. Here, we investigate the elasticity of CaPv using ab initio machine-learning force fields (MLFF). At room temperature, the elasticity of tetragonal CaPv determined by MLFF molecular dynamics (MD) agrees well with experimental measurements after considering temperature induced variations in the hydrostatic structure, proving the effectiveness of the method.

The chloroplast RNA-binding protein CP29A supports expression during cold acclimation.

The chloroplast genome encodes key components of the photosynthetic light reaction machinery as well as the large subunit of the enzyme central for carbon fixation, Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphat-carboxylase/-oxygenase (RuBisCo). Its expression is predominantly regulated posttranscriptionally, with nuclear-encoded RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) playing a key role. Mutants of chloroplast gene expression factors often exhibit impaired chloroplast biogenesis, especially in cold conditions.

Background: Cold-water immersion (CWI) has gained popularity as a health and wellbeing intervention among the general population.

Objective: This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the psychological, cognitive, and physiological effects of CWI in healthy adults.

Methods: Electronic databases were searched for randomized trials involving healthy adults aged ≥ 18 years undergoing acute or long-term CWI exposure via cold shower, ice bath, or plunge with water temperature ≤15°C for at least 30 seconds.
