ABSTRACT

Since the facile oxidation of ammonia is one key for its utilization as a zero-carbon fuel in a direct ammonia fuel cell, developing the ammonia oxidation reaction (AOR) catalysts with cost-effective and higher activity is urgently required. However, the catalytic activity of AOR is limited by the scaling relationship of the intermediate adsorption. Based on the density functional theory, the N-modified Co3Mo3C with separated active sites of NH3 dehydrogenation and N-N coupling has been designed and investigated, which is a promising strategy to circumvent the scaling relationship, achieving improved AOR catalytic performance with a lower theoretical overpotential of 0.59 V under fast reaction kinetics condition. The calculation results show that the hollow site (Co-Mo-Mo and Co-Co-Mo) and Co site in N-modified Co3Mo3C play essential roles in NH3 dehydrogenation and N-N coupling, respectively. This work not only benefits for understanding the mechanism of AOR, but also provides a fundamental guidance for rational design of AOR catalysts.

ABSTRACT

Nitrogen recovery from wastewater represents a sustainable route to recycle reactive nitrogen (Nr). It can reduce the demand of producing Nr from the energy-extensive Haber-Bosch process and lower the risk of causing eutrophication simultaneously. In this aspect, source-separated fresh urine is an ideal source for nitrogen recovery given its ubiquity and high nitrogen contents. However, current techniques for nitrogen recovery from fresh urine require high energy input and are of low efficiencies because the recovery target, urea, is a challenge to separate. In this work, we developed a novel fresh urine nitrogen recovery treatment process based on modular functionalized metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Specifically, we employed three distinct modification methods to MOF-808 and developed robust functional materials for urea hydrolysis, ammonium adsorption, and ammonia monitoring. By integrating these functional materials into our newly developed nitrogen recovery treatment process, we achieved an average of 75 % total nitrogen reduction and 45 % nitrogen recovery with a 30-minute treatment of synthetic fresh urine. The nitrogen recovery process developed in this work can serve as a sustainable and efficient nutrient management that is suitable for decentralized wastewater treatment. This work also provides a new perspective of implementing versatile advanced materials for water and wastewater treatment.

ABSTRACT

Halogenated organic solvents are the most commonly detected pollutants in groundwater and are particularly toxic and harmful. How to separate these dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) pollutants efficiently from groundwater has become an important research question. Here, a novel hydrocyclone with annular overflow structure was designed, which eliminated the short-circuit flow of the traditional hydrocyclone and solved the problem of overflow entrainment caused by the enrichment of droplets near the locus of zero vertical velocities (LZVV) into turbulence. The flow field characteristics of this novel hydrocyclone were studied using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation and compared with the traditional hydrocyclone. It was found that the annular gap structure of the novel hydrocyclone increased the tangential velocity of the outer vortex. Moreover, the radius of the LZVV was expanded outward by 0.17 mm, which reduced the possibility of droplets with small particle sizes in the second phase escaping from the overflow pipe. The collective effect was to eliminate the short-circuit flow. This novel hydrocyclone was able to separate DNAPL pollutants with low consumption and high efficiency, across a range of inlet velocity from 4 to 6 m/s. The maximum separation efficiency was 99.91 %. In addition, with trichloroethylene (TCE) as the target pollutant, the maximum volume fraction of the dispersed phase in the hydrocyclone was located on the side wall of the hydrocyclone. Taken together, we believe that this work will provide a low-cost, efficient separation method for the separation of groundwater- contaminated liquid mixtures. Furthermore, it has broad application prospects in the field of heterotopic remediation of groundwater.

ABSTRACT

In view of the significant differences in phosphorus removal processes by different steel slags, electric furnace slag was taken as the research object to discuss the effects of environmental factors, including the adsorption time and adsorption temperature, on phosphorus removal and to verify the phosphorus removal performances of steel slag for phosphate, pyrophosphate, and actual water bodies. With the help of spectral techniques including scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS), X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy(XRF), and an X-ray diffractometer(XRD), the phosphorus removal mechanisms of steel slag were explored. Moreover, the phosphorus removal abilities of different absorptive media of steel slag, ceramsite, and zeolite were compared, and the safety performances of phosphorus removal by steel slag were evaluated. The results showed that the adsorption time significantly affected the phosphorus removal efficiency of steel slag. The phosphorus removal efficiencies of phosphate solutions with a concentration range of 1-20 mg·L-1 using steel slag could reach over 97% when the adsorption time was 30 min. The effect of temperature on phosphorus removal by steel slag was not significant. The pyrophosphate adsorption capacity of steel slag was weaker than that of orthophosphate, and the removal rate of pyrophosphate with an initial concentration of 3 mg·L-1 was 82.45%. Spectral analysis showed that the mechanisms of phosphorus removal by steel slag were chemical adsorption assisted by physical adsorption, and calcium-phosphorus was the main precipitate component. CaHPO4·2H2O was the main precipitate. Steel slag exhibited excellent phosphorus removal properties for removing phosphorus in the biological pond effluent and wetland system, achieving total phosphorus removal rates of 98.36% and 93.33%, respectively. In comparison, the phosphate removal performance of steel slag was better than that of ceramsite and zeolite, and the removal efficiencies of PO43- were 96%, 40%, and 10%, respectively. The contents of heavy metals in the leaching solution of steel slag met the requirements of the Class I standard of surface water; thus, the steel slag was safe and reliable.

ABSTRACT

AIM: To evaluate the clinical value of abnormal laboratory results of multiple organs in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-2019) and to help clinicians perform correct treatment. RESULTS: Elevated neutrophil-to-LYM ratio (NLR), D-dimer(D-D), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, IL-2, interferon-Y, and age were significantly associated with the severity of illness. However, significant and sustained decreases were observed in the LYM subset (p<0.05). D-D, T cell counts, and cytokine levels in severe COVID-19 patients who survived the disease gradually recovered at later time points to levels that were comparable to those of mild cases. Second, D-D increased from 0.5 to 8, and the risk ratio increased from 2.75 to 55, eventually leading to disseminated intravascular coagulation. Moreover, the acute renal function damage occurred earlier than abnormal heart and liver functions (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The degrees of lymphopenia and proinflammatory cytokine storm were higher in severe COVID-19 patients than in mild cases. The degree was associated with the disease severity. Advanced age, NLR, D-D, and cytokine levels may serve as useful prognostic factors for the early identification of severe COVID-19 cases. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were collected from 93 confirmed COVID-19 patients. The samples were examined for lymphocyte (LYM) subsets by flow cytometry and cytokine profiles by specific immunoassays. The receiver operating characteristic curve was applied to determine the best diagnostic thresholds for laboratory results, and principal component analysis was used to screen the major risk factors. The prognostic values were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier curve and univariate and multivariate COX regression models.

ABSTRACT

Hydrosoluble trehalose lipid (a biosurfactant) was employed for the first time as a green extraction solution to extract the main antioxidant compounds (geniposidic acid, chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, and rutin) from functional plant tea (Eucommia ulmoides leaves). Single-factor tests and response surface methodology were employed to optimize the extraction conditions for ultrasound-assisted micellar extraction combined with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography in succession. A Box-Behnken design (three-level, three-factorial) was used to determine the effects of extraction solvent concentration (1-5 mg/mL), extraction solvent volume (5-15 mL), and extraction time (20-40 min) at a uniform ultrasonic power and temperature. In consequence, the best analyte extraction yields could be attained when the trehalose lipid solution concentration was prepared at 3 mg/mL, the trehalose lipid solution volume was 10 mL and the extraction time was set to 35 min. In addition, the recoveries of the antioxidants from Eucommia ulmoides leaves analyzed by this analytical method ranged from 98.2 to 102%. These results indicated that biosurfactant-enhanced ultrasound-assisted micellar extraction coupled with a simple ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography method could be effectively applied in the extraction and analysis of antioxidants from Eucommia ulmoides leaf samples.

ABSTRACT

In this experiment, with stainless steel gas cyclone-liquid jet absorption separator as carrier, NH3 as experimental gas, and water and H3PO4 solution as absorbents, corresponding NH3 absorption rate change is obtained through the adjustment of experimental parameters, such as NH3 inlet concentration, inlet velocity of mixed gas, injection flow rate of absorbent, temperature of absorbent, and H3PO4 absorbent concentration. The NH3 absorption rate decreases with the increase in NH3 inlet concentration and inlet gas velocity. The NH3 absorption rate will increase first and then tends to remain unchanged after reaching a certain degree with the increase in liquid injection flow rate and absorbent concentration. The NH3 absorption rate will increase first and then decrease with the increase in the absorbent temperature. The maximum NH3 removal efficiencies of water and H3PO4 were 96% and 99%, respectively.

ABSTRACT

Many cities are suffering from severe air pollution from fine particulate matter. Cyclone is an effective separator for particulate pollutant but has low efficiency for those with an aerodynamic diameter of 2.5 µm or less (PM2.5). In this research, four novel inlet particle-sorting cyclones were first developed to enhance the separation of PM2.5. The energy consumption, overall separation efficiency, particle grade efficiency,outlet particle concentration and size distribution were compared with common cyclone (CM-C). It was found that the vertical reverse rotation cyclone (VRR-C), which made the smaller particles enter cyclone from radially outer side and axially lower side at the rectangular inlet, had the best separation performance, especially for PM2.5 separation. The mean diameter of inlet particles was 15.7 µm and the particle concentration was 2000 mg/m3, the overall separation efficiency of the VRR-C reached 98.3%, which was 6.4% higher than that of CM-C. PM2.5 grade efficiency of the VRR-C exceeded 80%, which was 15∼20% higher than that of CM-C. The PM2.5 content at the VRR-C outlet was 30.8 mg/m3, while that of CM-C was still 118.4 mg/m3. The novel inlet particle-sorting cyclone is an effective separation enhancement for PM2.5 source control in the process of industrial production and environment protection.

ABSTRACT

Our study aimed to investigate the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms of ERCC1/XRCC1/XPA genes and postoperative chemotherapy efficacy and prognosis of endometrial carcinoma. Our study included 108 patients with endometrial carcinoma and 100 healthy participants. ERCC1 rs11615/XRCC1 rs25487/XPA rs1800975 gene polymorphisms were detected by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Then the chemotherapy efficacy and toxic effects of the patients were assessed. The genotype and allele frequency of ERCC1 rs11615/XRCC1 rs25487 in the case group were significantly different from that in the control group (all P<0.05). The patients with AA + GA in ERCC1 rs11615 had an increased risk of endometrial carcinoma than those with GG, and the risk of endometrial carcinoma for patients with AA + GA was also higher in comparison with patients with GG genotype in XRCC1 rs25487 (all P<0.05). GG on both ERCC1 rs11615/XRCC1 rs25487 had a higher effective rate of chemotherapy than GA + AA (all P<0.05). ERCC1 rs11615/XRCC1 rs25487 gene polymorphisms were linked with toxic effects in liver, kidney, and nervous system. ERCC1 rs11615/XRCC1 rs25487, muscular invasion, and tumor stage were independent risk factors for the prognosis of endometrial carcinoma (all P<0.05). However, no significant associations were observed between XPA rs1800975 polymorphism and chemotherapy efficacy and prognosis of endometrial carcinoma (all P>0.05). These results indicated that ERCC1 and XRCC1 but not XPA polymorphisms correlate with response to chemotherapy in endometrial carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

An advanced method for the degradation of trichloroethylene (TCE) over Pd/MCM-41 catalysts through a hydrogen-transfer was investigated. Formic acid (FA) was used instead of gaseous H2 as the hydrogen resource. As a model H-carrier compound, FA has proven to yield less by-products and second-hand pollution during the reaction. Several factors have been studied, including: the property of catalyst supports, Pd loading and size, temperature, initial concentrations of FA and TCE (potential impact on the reaction rates of TCE degradation), and FA decomposition. The intrinsic kinetics for TCE degradation were measured, while the apparent activation energies and the reaction orders with respect to TCE and FA were calculated through power law models. On the basis of kinetics, we assumed a plausible reaction pathway for TCE degradation in which the catalytic degradation of TCE is most likely the rate-determining step for this reaction.

ABSTRACT

An iron oxychloride (FeOCl) catalyst was developed for oxidative degradation of persistent organic compounds in aqueous solutions. Exceptionally high activity for the production of hydroxyl radical (OH·) by H2O2 decomposition was achieved, being 2-4 orders of magnitudes greater than that over other Fe-based heterogeneous catalysts. The relationship of catalyst structure and performance has been established by using multitechniques, such as XRD, HRTEM, and EPR. The unique structural configuration of iron atoms and the reducible electronic properties of FeOCl are responsible for the excellent activity. This study paves the way toward the rational design of relevant catalysts for applications, such as wastewater treatment, soil remediation, and other emerging environmental problems.

ABSTRACT

This study reports on the emergence of cfr-harbouring coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) among patients who received linezolid therapy in two hospitals in Hangzhou, China. The mechanisms of resistance and transmission were analysed for these resistant isolates. Eight Staphylococcus capitis isolates, one Staphylococcus epidermidis isolate and one Staphylococcus hominis isolate, obtained from patients who had received linezolid therapy in two hospitals in Hangzhou, China, were confirmed as linezolid resistant, with MICs ranging from 8 to >256 mg l(-1). The linezolid usage data of the ten patients before isolation of the linezolid-resistant CoNS were collected. PFGE analysis showed that the eight S. capitis isolates from the two hospitals belonged to the same clone. Nine of the linezolid-resistant CoNS isolates carried the cfr gene, which was located on plasmids of a similar size. A 5.3 kb fragment containing the cfr gene, revealing 99 % identity to the sequence of the cfr-harbouring plasmid pSS-01 reported previously, was determined by PCR mapping for all cfr-positive isolates, and the cfr gene was flanked by two copies of IS256-like elements. Thus, these results document the emergence of linezolid-resistant CoNS isolates carrying the cfr gene in Hangzhou, China. Effective nosocomial infection control strategies and the judicious use of antibiotics will be required to prevent further spread of this resistance mechanism.

ABSTRACT

Before the Civil War, nursing was performed by untrained nurses and female religious groups. After the outbreak of the Civil war, more women went out of the family and engaged in nursing service in military hospitals. Nursing in America transferred from religious charity activities and sporadic simple work into an indispensable profession and was developed. In the Civil War, excellent nurses saved soldiers' lives, reduced casualties and were gradually recognized by soldiers, doctors and the society. On the other hand, untrained nurses' lack of ability was exposed. The contradiction made nurses controversial and people began to consider what nursing was. Thus professional training for nurses was necessary, which caused the development of nursing education. This promoted the development of nursing education and professionalization of nursing.

ABSTRACT

The medicinal herbs derived from genus Senecio have been commonly used in Chinese medicine and triggered attention in recent decades for that they contain the hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids. Therefore the botanical pharmacognostic study to authenticate those herbs based on their macroscopic and microscopic characteristics is important for the assurance of safety when they are applied as raw material for extracts or for finished products. In this paper, 13 taxa (11 species and 2 varieties) of Senecio plants were collected and their macroscopic and microscopic characteristics were observed and described by digital microscopic illustration. The results showed that the distribution of collenchyma in the cortex, the level of development for pericycle, the location of the phloem, and the ratio of pith in transverse sections of the stems, and the morphology of the leaf epidermal cells, the stomatal types and the non-glandular hairs in leaf surface view were found to be the main microscopic characteristics for authentication of different Senecio species. The herbs derived from genus Senecio can be distinguished from each other on the basis of their macroscopic and microscopic characteristics, and those observation can be used for the identification of commercial crude drugs from Senecio plants.

ABSTRACT

A pre-column derivatization high-performance liquid chromatography method with diode array detection was developed and validated to determine the total retronecine esters-type hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (RET-HPAs) in herbs. The RET-HPAs reacted with o-chloranil in methanolic solution heated for 3 h, and an oxidative derivative was produced that could be detected at a maximal absorption of 223 nm. The analysis was performed using a C18 column with an isocratic elution of methanol and aqueous 0.01% triethylamine (adjusted to pH 4 with formic acid), and the detection was carried out with DAD at 223 nm. The validation of the method included linearity, sensitivity, recovery and stability. It showed a good linear regression (r(2) > 0.9900) in the range of 2.5-250 microM with a limit of detection (S/N = 3) of 0.5 microM. The method provided desirable repeatability with overall intra- and inter-day variations of less than 4.6%. The obtained recoveries for both of the extraction and derivatization process were between 94.6 and 100.7% (n = 3).
