Phase-field simulations opening new horizons in corrosion research [PDF]

arXiv
This work overviews a new, recent success of phase-field modelling: its application to predicting the evolution of the corrosion front and the associated structural integrity challenges. Despite its important implications for society, predicting corrosion damage has been an elusive goal for scientists and engineers.

Effect of Ethanol on Microbial Community Structure and Function During Natural Attenuation of Benzene, Toluene, and \u3cem\u3eo\u3c/em\u3e-Xylene in a Sulfate-reducing Aquifer [PDF]

, 2008
Ethanol (EtOH) is a commonly used fuel oxygenate in reformulated gasoline and is an alternative fuel and fuel supplement. Effects of EtOH release on aquifer microbial ecology and geochemistry have not been well characterized in situ.

Evaluation of enzymatic pretreatment strategies to enhance anaerobic digestion of tomato waste

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Tomato residues are a form of solid waste that can be converted into methane through anaerobic digestion (AD). However, methane production is often limited due to incomplete hydrolysis caused by the high lignocellulosic content of tomato waste.

Optimizing Waste Management with Advanced Object Detection for Garbage Classification [PDF]

arXiv
Garbage production and littering are persistent global issues that pose significant environmental challenges. Despite large-scale efforts to manage waste through collection and sorting, existing approaches remain inefficient, leading to inadequate recycling and disposal.

Combining dynamic life cycle assessment and net ecosystem exchange through the framework of biobased materials and products‐life cycle assessment (BBM‐LCA): application to polylactic acid

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biobased products can achieve carbon negativity by storing biogenic carbon in the technosphere through circular loops. Quantifying these benefits requires quantitative assessment tools such as life cycle assessment (LCA). However, the LCA of biobased materials is not straightforward due to the complexity of addressing agroecosystem carbon ...

Antibacterial hydrogel: The sniper of chronic wounds

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The treatment of chronic wounds has always been an important challenge in the medical field. We focus on hydrogels not only because they provide a moist healing environment but also because compared with traditional dressings, they can effectively prevent and treat infections, reduce wound pain and scar formation.

The effect of sodium nitroprusside in scaffolds for synergetic gas‐photothermal therapy of osteosarcoma

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The PCLA‐SNP scaffolds can produce photothermal agents in situ under ultraviolet radiation. Then, the scaffold can release nitric oxide gas spontaneously and generate hyperthermia under near‐infrared laser to enhance ablation of bone tumors. Furthermore, the calcium and iron ions released from PCLA‐SNP scaffolds can accelerate bone regeneration ...
