Electrocatalytic properties of anode and the electrolyte composition are important parameters influence the degradation efficiency for aniline wastewater. Ti/RuO-SnO and Ti/RuO-IrO have been fabricated using thermal decomposition method and experiments in electrolyte containing 0.05 M NaSO, 0.05 M NaCl and 0.05 M NaSO+0.005 M FeSO at different current density were conducted to study the influence on aniline degradation. Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) showed that Ti/RuO-SnO had higher oxygen evolution potential and degrade aniline through electrochemical transformation and electrochemical combustion while Ti/RuO-IrO degrade aniline mainly through electrochemical transformation. The study showed that Ti/RuO-SnO had higher electrocatalytic activity towards the degradation of aniline than Ti/RuO-IrO anode in 0.05 M NaSO and in 0.05 M NaCl electrolyte. The maximum TOC removal efficiency for Ti/RuO-SnO was 64.2% at 40 mA cm in NaSO electrolyte while the average MCE was 1.6% and the average EC was 1.51 kWh (g TOC). On the contrary, the maximum TOC removal efficiency for Ti/RuO-IrO was 63.1% at 40 mA cm in NaCl electrolyte while the average MCE was 1.6% and the average EC was 1.95 kWh (g TOC). The presence of Fe in NaSO electrolyte would decrease the TOC removal efficiency except at low current density (20 mA cm) for Ti/RuO-SnO. These results indicated that Ti/RuO-SnO and Ti/RuO-IrO anode were suitable in NaSO and NaCl electrolyte, respectively, while the presence of Fe would inhibit aniline degradation.

This retrospective study evaluates the clinical impact of perioperative multimodal analgesia in the minimally invasive treatment of severe blunt chest trauma with hemopneumothorax using a thoracoscopic Ni-Ti shape memory embracing plate. A total of 100 patients with severe blunt chest trauma and moderate to severe hemopneumothorax treated at Hanyang Hospital affiliated with Wuhan University of Science and Technology from January 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled. Patients were divided into 2 groups: a control group (50 patients) receiving patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA), and a study group (50 patients) administered a multimodal analgesia regimen.

State Key Laboratory of New Ceramics and Fine Processing, School of Materials Science and Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China.

Low-loss microwave dielectrics are of significant importance for the miniaturization and integration of microwave devices. In this paper, the ceramics of nominal composition MgTiO ( = 3-6) are synthesized, and the correlations among their phase compositions, defect behaviors, and microwave dielectric properties are systematically investigated. The analyses indicate that the MgTiO ceramics are a biphasic system consisting of hexagonal ilmenite-structured MgTiO and cubic spinel-structured MgTiO.

Quadruple perovskite oxides have received extensive attention in electronics and catalysis, owing to their cation-ordering structure and intriguing physical properties. However, their repertoires still remain limited. In particular, piezoelectricity from quadruple perovskites has been rarely reported due to the frustrated symmetry-breaking transition in A-site-ordered perovskite structures, disabling their piezoelectric applications.

Wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is a sustainable technique for making wastewater reusable for non-potable purposes. However, in developing countries, most conventional WWTPs are not equipped to trap all pharmaceutical residues (PRs) and pharmaceutically active chemicals (PhACs). This study aims to perform non-target screening of these contaminants in wastewater and explore health and environmental hazards and the removal efficiency of a WWTP in Malaysia.

Background/purpose: Titanium (Ti) is extensively used in dental and orthopedic implants due to its excellent mechanical properties. However, its smooth and biologically inert surface does not support the ingrowth of new bone, and Ti ions may have adverse biological effects. The purpose is to improve the corrosion resistance of titanium and create a 3D structured coating to enhance osseointegration through a very simple and fast surface treatment.
