Phenolic compounds pose a significant risk to the quality of water since they often remain persistent across the water supply chain. For the urban and peri-urban populations that leverage traditional water treatment approaches like boiling and filtration, phenols remain a key challenge since they are persistent micropollutants. In this work, the removal of these compounds has been demonstrated with the help of density functional theory, which, unlike experimental approaches, is less laborious an...

The development of low-cost and environmentally friendly solar cell technologies has attracted significant attention as an alternative to traditional silicon-based devices. Carbon dots (CD s), owing to their tunable optical band gap, strong absorption in the visible spectrum, and excellent electron-donating properties, have emerged as promising sensitizers and interfacial modifiers in solar energy conversion systems. In this study, we present a systematic investigation of CD s...

Infrared (IR) dyes, especially those within the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, hold significant promise for in vivo visualization, due to their ability to access biological tissues and significantly reduce background interference from autofluorescence. Nanoparticles integrated with IR dyes have undergone extensive investigation regarding their pharmacokinetic behavior, including biodistribution patterns and clearance mechanisms. These nanoparticles exhibit a remarkable ability to prefere...

Diclofenac (DCF) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used to relieve pain in joint-related diseases. It is not completely metabolized after consumption and cannot be easily removed using conventional wastewater treatment. DCF has been detected in water bodies and may pose chronic effects on the endocrines of living organisms even at low-level exposure. Heterogeneous photocatalysis provides an alternative and efficient method of degrading DCF. In this study, the photocatalytic remov...

This paper focuses on the difference between the effect of heating and reheating on sunflower oil properties by using carbon dioxide laser and electrical heater. Two samples of sunflower oil were heated and reheated with carbon dioxide laser beaming up to 50°C, which takes 30 minutes; another two samples were heated and reheated up to 250°C using electrical heater in two minutes, along with an unheated control sample at ambient conditions. Chemical properties like acid value, free fatty ...

This paper presents a power consumption estimation algorithm for static analysis. IR drop is being calculated for each separated node, which makes this algorithm favorable for IR drop calculation on infinite power network. The power consumption is being calculated using random walk algorithm, which includes Monte Carlo simulation method for increasing accuracy of estimation. For power mesh with 150 k power nodes, total IR drop cal ...

In this report, we present fundamental DC conduction mechanisms of pol-yvinyl difluoride/nano-zinc oxide (PVDF/ZnO) composite films. Nano-composite films of zinc oxide in the PVDF matrix have been fabricated via a solution casting method. Space charge limited conduction (SCLC) was found to be a prominent conduction mechanism in higher voltage region and Schottky- Richardson mechanism was a possible conduction mechanism in a higher ...

The crystallization of calcium carbonate at interface of Langmuir monolayers of bovine serum albumin and subphase containing magnesium ions was studied in this paper. The results were characterized by using powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effect rules were obtained by the cooperation of bovine serum albumin Langmuir monolayers and magnesium ions. BSA Langmuir monolayers controlled calcium ...

A proposal of the
theoretical adsorption of 2H-Mo(1﹣x)W(x)S2-Ni over
graphene using extended Hückel tight-binding method was investigated. It is
well known that a theoretical prior investigation is well accepted by the
scientific community due to that
provides information regarding elec ...

Silica films
containing gold nanoparticles were grown by magnetron radio frequency (rf) sputtering
technique under various deposition conditions. The structural and optical properties
of the composite films deposited at 400℃ substrate temperature were compared with
those deposited at room temperature. Effect of substrate temperature of AuNPs on
micro structural properties of the Au/SiO2 ...
