CO absorption hybrid with microalgae conversion (CAMC) could be a promising alternative for the conventional CO capture technologies. The hybrid process could avoid the challenges of thermal energy consumption in the conventional desorption process and nutrition consumption in the typical algae cultivation process. In this work, the influence of different nitrogen ratio (NHHCO:NaNO) on the performance of the proposed hybrid CAMC process was investigated. Experimental results indicated that adding NHHCO into cultivation solution could promote Spirulina platensis growth. When the ratio of NHHCO and NaNO was set at 1:4, carbon utilization efficiency of the hybrid process could achieve 40.45%, which was higher than the conventional microalgae CO fixation processes (around 10%-30%). In addition, carbon sequestration capacity increased to 178.46 mg/L/d. It could be observed that CO absorption-microalgae conversion (CAMC) hybrid system has the potential for cost-effective CO capture and utilization.

Microalgae have the potential to fix CO into valuable compounds. Low photosynthetic efficiency caused by low light was one of the challenges faced by microalgae carbon sequestration. In this study, Melatonin (MT) and indole-propionic acid (IPA) were used to alleviate the growth inhibition of Spirulina in CAMC system under low light restriction.

CO absorption-microalgae conversion (CAMC) system is a promising carbon capture and utilization technology. However, the use of HCO as a carbon source often led to a slower growth rate of microalgae, which also limited the application of CAMC system. In this study, the assimilation efficiency of HCO in CAMC system was improved through mixotrophic, and the potential mechanism was investigated.

Introduction: Annual healthcare expenditures associated with atrial fibrillation (AF) in the United States (US) continue to grow as more symptomatic patients present to emergency departments (ED). Predictors of spontaneous conversion to normal sinus rhythm (ScNSR) remain poorly understood, as well as the timeline of ScNSR remains unclear. We sought to 1) to assess the association of key demographics, anthropometric, and clinical factors to ScNSR and 2) to evaluate the timeline of ScNSR, and 3) determine clinical predictors of ScNSR.

According to the characteristics of power plant flue gas emission and the requirements of reducing CO capture cost. CO absorption hybrid with microalgae conversion (CAMC) can avoid the challenges of heat consumption during absorbent desorption and nutrient consumption during microalgae culture. In this study, the bicarbonate solution (represents the products of CO absorption by NaCO and KCO) is used as carbon source for mutagenic cultivation, and different concentrations of bicarbonate were set to explore the best carbon source.

As the growing popularity of robotic-assisted laparoscopic procedures for the treatment of renal cancer increases, there exists a variation in surgical technique among institutions and surgeons alike. One variation that exists in robotics is the anatomical placement of the camera port (medial versus lateral camera port placement). The purpose of this study is to evaluate surgical complications and outcomes in comparison to site of camera port placement during nephron-sparing surgery in an academic setting.
