Drying Kinetics in Solar Dehydration of Tomato

Journal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems
Of Mexican households, 44.6% reported some degree of food insecurity in 2023. 39.3% of annual tomato production is lost in the supply chain, even though it is among the top staples of the basic food basket.

Room‐Temperature Synthesis of Strongly Confined Lead Halide Perovskite Quantum Dots

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
CsPbX3${\rm CsPbX}_3$ lead halide perovskite quantum dots (QDs) are synthesized in a room‐temperature, five‐minute synthesis, yielding size‐controlled QDs with bright, tunable emission governed by reaction conditions and halide composition. A strongly binding ligand, OD‐PEA, ensures months‐long stability under ambient conditions and facilitates their ...

A Novel Modified Petroresin Particle (MPRP) With Enhanced Oil–Water Selectivity for Cold Production in Heavy Oil Reservoirs

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel oil–water selective conformance control agent, MPRP, is prepared via hydrophilic grafting and mechanical granulation. MPRP uniformly disperses in water, cohesively expands upon aging, and readily dissolves in the oil phase. During conformance control, it selectively aggregates in water channeling pathways to form effective plugs without ...
