Design and Performance Analysis of a Thermal Energy Storage System With Steam Extraction and Electric Heating in a Coal‐Fired Power Plant

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT To alleviate the impact of the instability of renewable energy power generation on the power grid, coal‐fired power plants (CFPPs) have to undertake peak shaving tasks, which puts forward high requirements for the flexibility of CFPPs. To enhance the flexibility of CFPPs to consume more renewable energy, this paper innovatively proposes a ...

Heat Stress and Gut Microbiome Dynamics in Poultry: Interplay, Consequences, and Mitigation Strategies

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Heat stress disrupts gut microbial balance in poultry, impairing nutrient absorption and immunity. This review outlines the interplay between thermal stress and microbiome dynamics and discusses integrative mitigation strategies, probiotics, phytogenics, cooling systems, and genetic adaptation to enhance poultry resilience.

Comparative Meta‐Analysis of Antimicrobial Peptides in Aquatic and Terrestrial Livestock Species

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
A global meta‐analysis of 58 studies (926 effect sizes and 29 species across five taxa) revealed that dietary antimicrobial peptides generally improve growth performance, blood metabolites, and immune responses. The greatest benefits were observed in omnivorous livestock, such as pigs and chickens. Dose‐duration effects were evident. An optimal outcome
