From Waste to Value: A Data‐Driven Framework for Sustainable Raw Materials Substitution in the Ceramic Industry

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With increasing geopolitical risks, environmental pressures, and regulatory demands, the sustainable sourcing of raw materials has become a global priority for achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure), SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production), and SDG

Interaction between two calcite surfaces in aqueous solutions: Study of nano-scale interfacial forces using AFM and SFA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Carbonate-bearing rocks in the upper Earth’s crust are prone to continuous changes under influences of various physical and chemical processes. The macroscopic mechanical strength of carbonates is generally controlled by the cohesion between contacting ...

Exploring the Sustainability Landscape of Nature‐Based Solutions in Food Systems

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nature‐based solutions (NbS) offer a pathway toward more resilient food systems. Although previous studies analysed various sustainability benefits of integrating NbS within food systems, the field remains fragmented, with a significant gap in understanding development patterns, emerging research trends at the intersection of NbS, food systems,

Colloidal Behavior of Carbonate Particles Microbially Precipitated in Microfluidic Droplets

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
In Microbially Induced Calcium Carbonate Precipitation (MICP), ureolytic bacteria trigger calcium carbonate precipitation via pH‐increasing urea hydrolysis. This enzymatically driven reaction induces the colloidal assembly of bacteria and carbonate particles into fractal networks.

Integrated Alpha–Gamma Radiation Exposure From Natural Radionuclides in Cement and Gypsum Production: Implications for Occupational Lung Cancer Risk

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Natural radionuclides in cement and gypsum production materials pose significant risks of occupational radiation exposure that are not well documented in Iraqi Kurdistan. This study quantifies alpha and gamma radiation levels from naturally occurring radioactive materials, specifically 222Rn, 238U, 232Th, and 40K, in cement and gypsum samples ...

Integration of Micro‐CT and XRF Mapping for Multimodal 3D Analysis of Polychrome Wooden Artifacts

open access: yesX-Ray Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past 5 years, computer applications have become crucial to archeological research. Since the 1990s, the focus has transitioned from data management tools to the development of virtual models. Recently, digital documentation of cultural heritage has gained considerable focus, with 3D modeling of objects.

Faster and targeted raster imaging through non‐rectangular scanning

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
A highly efficient algorithm for raster scanning an area of non‐rectangular shapes is presented. This method can significantly reduce the required scanning time for e.g. microbeam X‐ray diffraction and X‐ray fluorescence scanning microscopy.Many materials are spatially heterogenous and it is important to characterize this heterogeneity, which can be ...

A century of structures: historical fidelity and computational fitness in the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD)

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section B, EarlyView.
Of 464 Inorganic Crystal Structure Database (ICSD) structures from 1913 to 1929, the vast majority are structurally sound, but a small number carry genuine topological errors whose corrective information exists in the database yet is invisible to automated queries.

From mystery to modulation: the structural story of Rb2[Si2O5]

open access: yesActa Crystallographica Section B, EarlyView.
The crystal structure of Rb2[Si2O5] has been solved and refined as an incommensurately modulated phase. Each [SiO4] tetrahedron of the phyllosilicate adopts one of two distinct orientations, and the positions of their constituent silicon and oxygen atoms are modeled using a combination of crenel and harmonic positional modulation functions.The crystal ...
