Impact of ambient temperature, precipitation and seven years of experimental warming and nutrient
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Global change is causing changes in temperature, precipitation, and nutrient availability. Alpine and polar regions are predicted to be among the most vulnerable for these changes. We applied a seven-year factorial experiment ...
Productivity forecasting of solar distiller integrated with evacuated tubes and external condenser using artificial intelligence model and moth-flame optimizer
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2021 , Article)
This paper aims at developing an artificial intelligence model to forecast the water yield of a modified solar distiller integrated with evacuated tubes and an external condenser. The model consists of a hybrid long ...
Recovery of rare earth elements from waste streams using membrane processes: An overview
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) has become an attractive process owing to the high costs and limited availabilities of REEs. In addition, the recovery of REEs has become a necessity because of their high toxicity ...
Interface Coassembly and Polymerization on Magnetic Colloids: Toward Core–Shell Functional Mesoporous Polymer Microspheres and Their Carbon Derivatives
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2020 , Article)
Core–shell structured magnetic mesoporous polymer or carbon-based microspheres not only possess the combined merits of magnetic particles and stable mesoporous shell but also provide various organic functional groups for ...
Transmissibility and Persistence of the Plasmid-Borne Mobile Colistin Resistance Gene, mcr-1, Harbored in Poultry-Associated E. coli
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Colistin, a last-resort antibiotic, is used to treat infections caused by multi-drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Colistin resistance can emerge by acquiring the mobile colistin gene, mcr-1, usually plasmid borne. ...
Gas Sensing and Power Harvesting Polyvinylidene Fluoride Nanocomposites Containing Hybrid Nanotubes
(
Springer
, 2020 , Article)
Gas sensing properties at room temperature and energy harvesting performances are realized for the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanocomposites containing titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanotubes grown in the presence of carbon ...
Sustainable utilization of waste carbon black in alkali-activated mortar production
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
This article investigates the potential utilization of waste carbon black (WCB) resulting from the aluminum industry as a by-product material in the fly ash-based geopolymer composites production. Experimental study was ...
A realistic perspective for CO2 triggered tuning of electrical conductivity
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2022 , Article)
To seek sustainable CO2 sequestration and conversion, an electrochemical cell has been investigated for carbon capture and utilization strategy (CCU). In this cell, atmospheric CO2 is captured under ambient conditions and ...
An Improved Quality Inspection of Engine Bearings Using Machine Vision Systems
(
American Society for Testing and Materials
, 2022 , Article)
The growth of an industry is mostly based on the quality of the product. When there is a fault in the manufactured product in a batch, the entire batch is rejected because of a single faulty product. Quality has become one ...
MXene (Ti3 C2 Tx )/Cellulose Acetate Mixed-Matrix Membrane Enhances Fouling Resistance and Rejection in the Crossflow Filtration Process
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Obstacles in the membrane-based separation field are mainly related to membrane fouling. This study involved the synthesis and utilization of covalently crosslinked MXene/cellulose acetate mixed matrix membranes with MXene ...
