INDIA- As for reported in 360 COVID-19 cases (till March 22, 2020), seven people were died, and 23 treated successfully.1 This virus can easily affect who having respiratory problem especially all have been aged older than sixty. Most of the affected peoples had reached India from different part world, as like carrier. Owing to this, made several precautionary measures mitigate/neglect disease beginning stage, however, denser population country will not be simple control same long time...

Clean energy and water are major challenges to meet for sustainable development. Microbial Fuel Cells or MFCs can treat wastewater with the treatment process becoming a method capturing in form of bioelectricity. In this work, biomass derived Activated Carbon was used as MFC cathode carbon yarn brush anode. Sugarcane processing plant evaluate bioelectricity generation contamination removal over multiple cycles. System performance stable, is attributed absence carboxylic acid functional group...

Vitrimers, a class of polymeric networks that change their topology above threshold temperature, have been investigated in recent years. In order to further extend properties, this research, we demonstrate disulfide exchange assisted polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)- and graphene oxide (GO)-involved epoxy vitrimers, which exhibit reduction glass transition temperature storage modulus with increase flexural strain low-temperature self-healing. Stress relaxation Arrhenius study were carried out for...

Summary In natural environments, voltage gradients can be created in soil or sediments from inherent microbial activity. Present work has utilized sediment fuel cell s‐MFC for dark flocculent surface to see bioelectricity generation potential at Jaipur, Rajasthan India. Using a glucose rich substrate media and low external resistance, system generated of around 500 ± 10 mV, with power density peaking after week operation 2122 80 mW/m 2 current 4.31 mA/m ; reactor components included six...

Vitrimeric materials have emerged as fascinating and sustainable owing to their malleability, reprocessability, recyclability. Sustainable vitrimeric can be prepared by reinforcing polymeric matrix with bioderived fillers. In the current work, a vitrimer is incorporating biomass-derived activated carbon (AC) filler into epoxy achieve enhanced thermal mechanical properties. Thus, biocomposite vitrimers demonstrate lower-temperature self-healing (70°C for 5 min) via disulfide exchanges,...

In materials industries, composite is an emerging material known for its low weight - high strength. The a that contains two different phases in order to create particular properties. synthetic composites require large quantum of energy and also the environment being affected due pollution generated during production recycling. This draws attention use natural fibers as it lower cost biodegradable. this work, chemical treatments banana abaca are carried out modify surface, stop moisture...
