Preparation and performance of catalyst for organic peroxide wastewater treatment.

To improve the oxidation pretreatment efficiency of wastewater from organic peroxides, a catalyst (CeO-C catalyst) was developed using the calcination method with ceramic particles as the support. The crystalline structure and elemental composition of the CeO-C catalyst were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). This study explored the effects of CeO mass ratio, calcination temperature, and calcination time on the performance of the catalyst.

Responses of CO and CH in the alpine wetlands of the Tibetan Plateau to warming and nitrogen and phosphorus additions.

Wetland ecosystems store large amounts of carbon, and CO and CH fluxes from this ecosystem receive the double impact of climate change and human activities. Nonetheless, research on how multi-gradient warming and nitrogen and phosphorus additions affect these wetland greenhouse gas emissions is still limited, particularly in alpine wetland ecosystems. Therefore, we conducted a field experiment on the Tibetan Plateau wetlands, investigating the effects of warming and nitrogen and phosphorus additions on the CO and CH fluxes in alpine wetlands.

Removal of intracellular and extracellular antibiotic resistance genes and virulence factor genes using electricity-intensified constructed wetlands.

Constructed wetland (CW) is considered a promising technology for the removal of emerging contaminants. However, its removal performance for antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) is not efficient and influence of virulence factor genes (VFGs) have not been elucidated. Here, removal of intracellular and extracellular ARGs as well as VFGs by electricity-intensified CWs was comprehensively evaluated.

Global evapotranspiration from high-elevation mountains has decreased significantly at a rate of 3.923 %/a over the last 22 years.

Clarifying the responses of human activities and climate change to the water cycle under variable environments is crucial for accurately assessing regional water balance. An analysis of the changes in actual evapotranspiration and its driving factors was conducted in the global high-elevation mountains during the period from 2001 to 2022. Utilizing 18 formulas for calculating evapotranspiration, which are based on comprehensive, temperature, radiation, and mass transfer, and then simulated the variations in reference evapotranspiration.

Characterizing the Pathogenicity and Mycotoxin Production Capacity of spp. Causing Root Rot of in China.

Root rot is a very destructive soil-borne disease, which severely affects the quality and yield of in major planting areas of Gansu Province, China. Twelve strains were identified from root rot tissue and infected soil in the field by comparing each isolate strain internal transcribed spacer, translation elongation factor 1-α sequence and RNA polymerase second largest subunit gene with the sequences of known fungal species in the NCBI database. Of these isolates, four were , followed by three , two , and one each of , , and .

Cost-Effective and Scalable Solar Interface Evaporators Derived from Industry Waste for Efficient Solar Steam Generation.

Interfacial solar steam generation for sustainable and eco-friendly desalination and wastewater treatment has attracted much attention. However, costly raw materials and complex preparation processes pose constant challenges to its wide promotion. Herein, a novel, cost-effective, and scalable strategy is presented for preparing solar interface evaporators using industrial waste as a raw material.

MNAzyme catalyzed signal amplification-mediated lateral flow biosensor for portable and sensitive detection of mycotoxin in food samples.

Here, an enzyme-free lateral flow aptasensor was designed by target-induced strand-displacement effect and followed by the activation of multi-component nucleic acid enzyme (MNAzyme)-mediated cleavage to enable rapid and portable ochratoxin A (OTA) detection. The substrate was prepared as an oligonucleotide strand modified with magnetic beads (MB) and human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). The interaction of OTA with the aptamer induces the release of blocking DNA, which hybridized with three separated subunits of DNA, forming a sequence-specific MNAzyme catalytic core.

Evaluation of Rheological and Anti-Aging Properties of TPU/Nano-TiO Composite-Modified Asphalt Binder.

Research on polyurethane-modified asphalt has become very popular. To this end, researchers have explored different ways, such as the use of polyurethane, to improve the road performance of asphalt. However, according to existing experimental research findings, it seems that the use of polyurethane alone cannot completely improve the road performance of asphalt.

Unveiling dynamics of size-dependent antibiotic resistome associated with microbial communities in full-scale wastewater treatment plants.

Serious concerns have been raised regarding antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) with respect to their potential threat to human health. Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) have been considered to be hotspots for ARGs. In this study, high-throughput quantitative polymerase chain reaction (HT-qPCR) was used to profile size-dependent ARGs and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) divided by particle-associated (PA) assemblages (>3.

Safety Assessment of Electromagnetic Exposure in High-Speed Train Carriage with Full Passengers.

The objective of this work is to evaluate the safety of the electromagnetic environment in the carriage of high-speed trains exposed to power cables when the train is full of passengers. The electromagnetic model of a real carriage, two sets of power cables and the 84 passengers were set up by using COMSOL Multiphysics software based on CRH5. The distributions of induced electric and magnetic fields in the carriage, inside and on the surface of passengers were investigated.

Blockage of PTPRJ promotes cell growth and resistance to 5-FU through activation of JAK1/STAT3 in the cervical carcinoma cell line C33A.

Gene therapy is a promising therapeutic approach for chemoresistant cervical cancers. Therapeutic interventions targeting the key factors contributing to the initiation and progression of cervical cancer may be a more effective treatment strategy. In the present study, we firstly determined the expression of protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor J (PTPRJ) in 8-paired human cervical tumor and non-tumor tissues.

[Relationships between river water quality and land use type at watershed scale].

Based on the remote sensing images of 54 water quality monitoring stations within the Suzi River watershed, the riparian buffer zones at 6 scales were constructed by ArcGIS, and the 8 landscape indices at landscape and class levels were calculated with FRAGSTATS software. A correlation analysis on the landscape indices and river water quality was made from the viewpoints of landscape space pattern and composition. In the watershed, the landscape pattern in different riparian buffer zones had different effects on the river water quality.
