This work aimed to degrade high-concentration p-nitrophenol (PNP) by Fenton oxidation. We studied various reaction parameters during Fenton oxidation, such as the iron dosage (as Fe), the initial concentration and temperature of PNP, and the dosage of hydrogen peroxide (HO), especially the influence of temperature on the PNP degradation rate and degree. Under the addition of the same molar ratio of HO/Fe and HO dosage according to the theoretical stoichiometry, the PNP degradation rate and the removal rate of total organic carbon (TOC) increased significantly with the increase in the initial PNP concentration. Moreover, the oxidative degradation effect was significantly affected by temperature. The increased reaction temperature not only significantly reduced the Fe dosage, but also greatly promoted the removal rate of chemical oxygen demand (COD) and TOC, and improved the utilization efficiency of HO. For example, when the initial concentration of PNP was 4,000 mg·L, and the dosage of Fe was 109 mg·L (HO/Fe = 200), the removal rates of COD and TOC at 85 °C reached 95% and 71% respectively. Both were higher than the 93% COD removal rate and 44% TOC removal rate when the dosage of Fe was 1,092 mg·L (HO/Fe = 20) at room temperature.

MXenes, as a novel two-dimensional lamellar material, has attracted much attention. However, MXenes lamellar are prone to collapse and stacking under hydrogen bonding and interlayer van der Waals forces, which affects their electrochemical and capacitive deionization performance. A three-dimensional Ni-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylate/TiCT (Ni-BTC/TiCT) composite electrode material was developed to enhance the electrochemical and capacitive deionization performance.

In the single-stage partial nitritation-anammox process for high-ammonium wastewater treatment, the presence of sufficient biomass with high activity is essential. This study developed an innovative airlift inner-circulation partition bioreactor (AIPBR) with a dual-cylinder structure. During the 362 days' operation, the AIPBR exhibited robust and stable nitrogen removal performance under diverse influent ammonium spanning from 300 to 1800 mg N/L.

Emerging contaminants (ECs) pose great challenges to water treatment technology due to their complexity and high harm. In this paper, the method of dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma coupled with iron-based catalyst (FeNC) activating periodate (PI) was first designed for ECs removal. The ingenious introduction of FeNC not only promotes the Fenton-like reaction of DBD system but also reduces the PI activation energy barrier and accelerates the electron shuttle between PI and pollutants.

A new in situ fracturing-enhanced oxidative remediation approach was recommended in this study to achieve rapid and efficient remediation of low-permeability contaminated sites. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of permeability and potassium permanganate (KMnO) concentration on the oxidation effectiveness and kinetics of KMnO in phenanthrene (PHE)-contaminated soil through rigid-wall hydraulic conductivity tests and a series of laboratory experiments. The results indicate that for various low-permeability contaminated soils, there was a critical KMnO concentration to significantly reduce the remediation time and a critical Darcy velocity to meet remediation goals.

Objective: The aim of this study was to examine the role of pre-sacral sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in patients with uterine cancer.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study includes patients with endometrial or cervical cancer who underwent minimally invasive indocyanine green SLN mapping at the Bern University Hospital from December 2012 to December 2022. A complete ultra-staging of the SLNs was performed in all cases.
