Cu/Fe Bimetallic Treatment Performance on Organophosphorus Pesticides

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Typical organophosphorus pesticides, such as glyphosate, trichlorfon, and ethephon, are widely used nowadays, and the treatment of their production wastewater is difficult to achieve by conventional water treatment methods.

Synergistic Solar Interfacial Evaporation and Photocatalysis Enabled by a Hierarchical Porous Hydrogel Reactor

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A tree‐inspired hydrogel interfacial reactor couples solar evaporation with photocatalysis for simultaneous desalination and waste water treatment. The bilayer design achieves 2.14 kg·m−2·h−1 evaporation rate with 79% dye degradation under one sun, demonstrating that photothermal heating and evaporation induced pollutant enrichment create a self ...

Spectral pollution

IMA Journal of Numerical Analysis, 2004
We discuss the problems arising when computing eigenvalues of self-adjoint operators which lie in a gap between two parts of the essential spectrum. Spectral pollution, i.e. the apparent existence of eigenvalues in numerical computations, when no such eigenvalues actually exist, is commonplace in problems arising in applied mathematics.
