The elevation of environmental phosphate levels can negatively impact both the natural environment and human health. To address this issue, a series MnO2 sorbents were investigated in study. A facile one-pot synthesis method was employed to fabricate distinct morphologies crystalline structures by controlling hydrothermal duration. As duration prolonged, samples demonstrated pronounced enhancement stability phases, along with corresponding increase structural oxygen vacancies. sorption...

This study investigates the synthesis and Sr2+ sorption properties of three different crystal types zirconium phosphate (ZrP)─amorphous ZrP (am-ZrP), α-ZrP, γ-ZrP─prepared via a one-pot reflux method. The materials were characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetry (TG), solid-state 31P magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) sodium hydroxide titration. Sorption experiments...

Diffusion is an important mass transport mechanism in shale matrix, which usually has pore sizes ranging from molecular dimensions to micrometers. Better characterization of the diffusion properties helpful understanding multiphysical process shale. We present a method for measuring local effective diffusivity core plugs using four-dimensional (4D) X-ray microcomputed tomography (micro-CT). Liquid–liquid X-ray-opaque CH2I2 Permian Basin plug into surrounding X-ray-transparent toluene...

Summary For X‐ray computed microtomography (μ‐CT) images of porous rocks where the grains and pores are not fully resolved, greyscale values each voxel can be used for quantitative calculations. This study addresses challenges that arise with greyscale‐based quantifications by conducting experiments designed to investigate sources error/uncertainty. We conduct calculations porosity, concentration diffusivity from various μ‐CT using a Bentheimer sandstone sample. The dry is imaged overtime...

Directed evolution methods based on high-throughput growth selection enable efficient discovery of enzymes with improved function in vivo. High-throughput is particularly useful when engineering oxygenases, which are sensitive to structural perturbations and prone uncoupled activity. In this work, we combine the principle that reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by oxygenase activity detrimental cell fitness a redox balance-based method for enables concurrent advancement catalytic...

Angular momentum (AM), a fundamental concept describing the rotation of an object about axis, profoundly influences all branches physics. In condensed matter, AM is intimately related to emergence topological quantum states, including chiral superconductivity and spin liquids, various quasiparticles. Recently, it has been predicted that microscopic lattice excitations, known as phonons, can carry finite with remarkable macroscopic physical consequences. However, direct observation phonon-AM...

The AGE superfamily (AGEs) is made up of kinds isomerase which are very important both physiologically and industrially. One the most intriguing aspects AGEs has to do with mechanism that regulates their activities in single conserved active pocket.
