Removal of anionic dyes from wastewater using fly ash based adsorbent

Desalination and Water Treatment
Facing the great challenge of increasing solid waste and huge amount of wastewater, “treating the wastes with wastes” seems to be a proper and sustainable development method. Fly ash, a typical solid waste, has attracted much attention for its high-value

Pollution affects Arabian and Saharan dust optical properties in the eastern Mediterranean [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics
Uncertainties in the direct radiative effect of mineral dust result from the variability in its optical properties but are also influenced by mixing with anthropogenic aerosols (“pollution”), e.g., black carbon or sulfates.

Investigating the rare phenomenon of dust in the southern shores of the Caspian Sea

Journal of Air Pollution and Health
Introduction: Climate change-driven droughts have intensified dust storms, expanding their impact to regions that previously experienced little to no dust. One such area is the southern shores of the Caspian Sea.

Quantitative proteomic analysis reveals different characteristics of bladder cancer cells after exposure to bisphenol A

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Bisphenol A (BPA), a common chemical in plastics, exerts dual effects on bladder cancer cells: low doses promote growth and migration, while high doses suppress growth and migration. Multi‐omics and bioinformatics reveal BPA acts via MAPK and inflammatory pathways.

Circumstellar Disks at White Dwarfs: Observations

, 2011
The current picture painted by the observations of circumstellar dust at white dwarfs, and the consequent atmospheric pollution, is of a surviving planetary system. This chapter recounts in detail both the discovery and empirical characterization of dust

Composites of Shellac and Silver Nanowires as Flexible, Biobased, and Corrosion‐Resistant Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...
