Mercury emission from industrial activities is a great threat to public health and ecosystems. Developing new strategies materials remove mercury still remains serious task. Herein, selenide-decorated copper foam prepared by heating-stirring method (Cu-hs) was used as monolithic adsorption material. The Cu-hs exhibited much better of elemental (Hg0) compared with the cordierite honeycomb same (Cordierite-hs). Nearly 100% Hg0 efficiency obtained under high gaseous hourly space velocity 6.0 ×...
Abstract Semiconductor photocatalysis has gained tremendous attention with great prospects to settle the worldwide environmental pollution and energy shortage issues. Many efforts have been made for semiconductor photocatalysts overcome disadvantages of weak photoabsorption high recombination charges in past few decades. Developing active facets junctions diffusely used shows huge potentials. The surface facet where reductive oxidative reactions occur a influence on efficiency reaction...
The paramount challenge in design and synthesis of materials for vapor-phase elemental mercury (Hg0) immobilization is to achieve a balance between performance economy practical applications. Herein, newly designed electroless plating coupled with an situ selenization method was developed construct copper selenide (Cu2Se)-functionalized commercial polyurethane sponge (PUS) as efficient Hg0 trap. Intrinsic features such easy availability the raw material, facile preparation, excellent...
A comprehensive analytical study to assess the performance level of industrial functions in environment has become necessary at present time. According existing research, COVID-19 pandemic resulted a significant reduction carbon emissions 2020. Policymakers are focusing on discrepancies and negative environmental effect caused by various industries during their routine operations. This aims estimate energy context countries that members European Union evaluation is performed through data...
Understanding the nature of low thermal conductivity and phonon transport properties is critical for design potential thermoelectric materials. Based on density-functional theory combined with Peierls-Boltzmann equation, we reveal that Ag-based intercalated layered materials $\mathrm{AgBi}{X}_{2}$ (X = S, Se, Te) have inherently lattice conductivity, which mainly attributed to anticrossing behavior low-frequency optical phonons longitudinal acoustic induced by rattling mode cations. It found...
Novel room temperature magnetic chiral ionic liquids derived from amino acids were synthesized and their properties as well discrimination abilities investigated.
Vegetation and species diversity patterns in conservation areas near big cities are poorly known. These important recreational used also for educational purposes. Therefore, investigations of local urgently needed. The Baihua Mountain Reserve is close to the city Beijing northern end Taihang mountain range north China. Sixty-one 10 × 20 m quadrats plant communities were established along gradients elevation (750–2043 masl) disturbance (mainly due tourism agriculture). Data on composition...
Background:Previous studies have suggested that elevated exposure to disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water during gestation may result adverse birth outcomes. However, the findings of these remain inconclusive.Objective:The purpose our study was examine association between blood biomarkers late pregnancy trihalomethanes (THMs) and fetal growth gestational age.Methods:We recruited 1,184 pregnant women 2011 2013 Wuhan Xiaogan City, Hubei, China. Maternal THM concentrations,...
