Development of Aceh iron sand to produce pig iron: studies on hardness properties
Aceh is one of provinces in Indonesia that produces iron sand. However, Aceh iron sand has been sent to other countries in the raw form instead of the processed one, which actually can add significant economic value to the minerals and eventually can ...

Abstract As a common industrial solid waste, iron ore tailing sand (IOTS) has a large amount of storage, and the treatment efficiency is unsatisfactory. Scientific and reasonable incorporation of IOTS waste into concrete is one of the critical ways to realize bulk utilization and sustainable development.

Bio‐Inspired Gradient Coatings Enhance the Leading Edge Erosion Resistance of Wind Blades
Rain‐induced erosion of the wind turbine blade leading edge poses a critical challenge to maintenance and operation. Here, we propose a bio‐inspired approach for erosion protection utilising a platelet‐reinforced polyurethane coating with a graded through‐thickness architecture.

Chiral Morphing of Liquid Crystal Polymer Networks
This paper reviews how macroscopic chirality spontaneously arises from liquid crystal polymer materials. It describes how alignment is utilized to create the mechanical anisotropy, geometric misorientation and asymmetry that leads to chiral shape morphing, how shape selection between helicoids and helices arises, the techniques used to prepare these ...

Degradation Mechanism of Phosphate‐Based Li‐NASICON Conductors in Alkaline Environment
The presence of water in the cathode of a Li‐air battery shifts reactions to produce LiOH, creating a corrosive, alkaline environment. This study investigates the alkaline stability of the common Li‐NASICON solid‐state conductor chemistries through a systematic experimental study combined with computational modeling to understand the degradation ...

A scalable, binder‐ and additive‐free strategy combining glycine‐assisted anodization and cathodic deposition is developed to fabricate a nano‐heterostructured composite LIB anode directly on titanium. Benefiting from its fully electrochemically active thick architecture, the anode delivers an outstanding areal capacity of 2639 µAh cm−2, nearly ...

Challenges and enablers in fluidization technology
Abstract Gas–solid fluidized beds provide excellent heat and mass transfer for high‐throughput operations from coating to catalytic conversion and underpin emerging low‐carbon technologies. Yet industrial reliability, scale‐up, and control lag scientific understanding, particularly as finer, stickier, and more variable feedstocks increasingly challenge

Transport Characteristics of Green-Tea Nano-scale Zero Valent Iron as a Function of Soil Mineralogy
The transport characteristics of iron nanoparticles prepared with a green tea, polyphenol-rich solution, were investigated for two granular media, pure silica sand and sand coated with aluminium hydroxide. The GT-nZVI injection caused a sharp decrease in

Crop insurance and irrigation behavior: The conditional role of pumping costs
Abstract Excessive water use for irrigation can accelerate the depletion of water resources, undermining agriculture's resilience to weather‐related shocks. Understanding how farmers make water use decisions is essential for developing effective water management policies.
