The Fumigation of Ships with Liston's Cyanide Fumigator [PDF]

Journal of Hygiene, 1923
(1) These experiments prove that the fumigator is safer to use than the dumping fixture, because high concentrations of the poison gas are avoided, so that dangerous pockets are not developed.(2) The poison gas is more evenly distributed over the different parts of the section of the ship under treatment.(3) High concentrations, however, can be ...

Tuning S Doping in Porous Carbon for Enhanced Initial Coulombic Efficiency and Rate Performance for Sodium/Potassium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Low‐temperature carbonization and sulfur doping increase defect density and tailor surface area, enabling the formation of a thinner, more stable SEI, enhancing rate performance and the ICE. The S/C composite delivers an ICE of 83.1% and 480 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1, retaining 232.6 mAh g−1 at 5 A g−1 for SIBs and achieves a considerable capacity of 439.2 ...

Selecting Promising Soil Quality Indicators for Monitoring Soil Management Effects Based on 10 European Long‐Term Field Experiments

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Soil quality can be measured through soil quality indicators that reflect soil processes. Aim: The aim of this study was to (1) identify a limited set of soil quality indicators that are most sensitive to agricultural soil management and that are widely applicable regardless of pedo‐climatic conditions, and (2) link common ...
