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

Animal 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.

Mineral insulating oils in service

Transformers Magazine, 2015
There is precious little basic information openly available on how insulating materials in transformers behave over longer periods of time. However, such information is very important for ensuring that aging equipment works adequately. It is valuable both from the perspective of transformer maintenance/asset management, and as background information ...

Crystallization of Cathode Active Material Precursors from Tartaric Acid Solution

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
This work investigates a novel approach for closing the gap between recycling and production of lithium‐ion battery cathode material. The new concept is based on antisolvent crystallization of metal carboxylates, which can be directly used as precursors in production of cathode material.

Combustion Characteristics and Self‐Extinguishing Mechanism of Novel Self‐Extinguishing Fluorinated Silicone Insulating Oil

High Voltage
Traditional mineral oil has long served as a liquid insulating medium in power transformers. However, its low fire resistance, poor biodegradability and dependence on finite fossil fuel resources, along with its low flash point, contribute to transformer

Performance assessment of a potential underground thermal storage facility: Case study of the closed mine Prosper‐Haniel in the Ruhr coal mining area in Germany

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the feasibility of an underground closed‐loop thermal storage facility at a post‐mining site, intended for seasonal heat energy storage. Its principal design shows water flow directions in winter and summer (1, 2), heat pumps (3), an upper water reservoir (4), and connecting pipes (5).
