Background: The concentration of natural gas components significantly impacts the transportation, storage, and utilization of natural gas. Consequently, implementing online monitoring and leak detection systems is vital to guarantee the efficient use of natural gas and to uphold its safe and stable operation. Raman spectroscopy offers distinctive benefits, including high selectivity, superior precision, and the capability to detect multiple gas components simultaneously using a single-wavelength laser. Nevertheless, the inherent weakness of the Raman effect in gases results in limited detection sensitivity for Raman spectroscopy, which may not suffice for specific practical applications.
Results: This paper presents a study investigating the detection of natural gas's complex components using a high-sensitivity multi-cavity enhanced Raman spectroscopy technique. An enhanced folded Z-shaped multi-pass cavity has been constructed to amplify the interaction length between the laser and the gas, thereby significantly boosting the Raman signal intensity by 1000 times. The detection limits for CH, CH, CH, n-CH, i-CH, n-CH, i-CH, and n-CH gases reached 0.12, 0.53, 0.55, 0.67, 0.28, 0.46, 0.34, and 0.71 ppm, respectively. The least squares method was utilized to establish quantitative relationships between the characteristic peak heights and the concentrations of gases, encompassing both single-component and mixed multi-component systems. Additionally, the natural gas samples were configured and subsequently detected and analyzed.
Significance: As proposed in this paper, the results indicate that the MPC-CERS system boasts several advantages, including a low detection limit, high quantitative accuracy, excellent detection repeatability, and robust system stability. Furthermore, its capability for real-time monitoring is well-suited to meet the gas detection requirements in practical applications. Consequently, the research presented in this paper offers innovative insights for the online tracking and leak detection of distributed energy natural gas systems.

Empirical and methodological foundations on the impact of climate-smart agriculture on food security studies: Review.

The progress of Ethiopia's agriculture is constrained by climate change leaving smallholder farmers vulnerable. As a panacea to the challenge, development institutions, governments, and research organizations are progressively promoting climate-smart agriculture (CSA) to maximize productivity, increase the resilience of livelihoods and farming systems (adaptation), and minimize or stop greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere (mitigation). This review synthesized knowledge on the prospects of CSA and climate change in addressing the adverse effects of climate change and variability by revising 99 peer-reviewed journal articles.

The management of wastewater and agricultural wastes has been limited by the separate treatment processes, which exacerbate pollution and contribute to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions. Given the energy demands and financial burdens of traditional treatment facilities, there is a pressing need for technologies that can concurrently treat solid waste and generate energy. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of producing bioelectricity and biohydrogen through the microbial treatment of blackwater and agricultural waste using a dual-chamber Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC).

CO hydrogenation to methanol using green hydrogen derived from renewable resources provides a promising method for sustainable carbon cycle but suffers from high selectivity towards byproduct CO. Here, we develop an efficient PdZn-ZnO/TiO catalyst by engineering lattice dislocation structures of TiO support. We discover that this modification orders irregularly arranged atoms in TiO to stabilize crystal lattice, and consequently weakens electronic interactions with supported active phases.

As one of the most commonly used general anesthetics (GAs) in surgery, numerous studies have demonstrated the detrimental effects of sevoflurane exposure on myelination in the developing and elderly brain. However, the impact of sevoflurane exposure on intact myelin structure in the adult brain is barely discovered. Here, we show that repeated sevoflurane exposure, but not single exposure, causes hypomyelination and abnormal ultrastructure of myelin sheath in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of adult male mice, which is considered as a critical brain region for general anesthesia mediated consciousness change.
