Hydrogels Formed by the Self‐Assembly of Collagen‐Mimetic Peptides With a Constrained Backbone Structure

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Kinked collagen‐mimetic peptides (kinkCMPs), whose backbone is constrained by a disulfide bond, are designed to induce hydrogel formation. The kinked backbone promotes supramolecular assembly into tunable hydrogels with thermal stability depending on length.

Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Biodegradability studies and contact phase trials towards a cleaner environment

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract The waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process, developed in our previous study, is used for septic wastewater treatment. This high‐rate contact stabilization pre‐treatment uses typical waste streams found in wastewater treatment plants to reduce a portion of the loadings on the main treatment trains.

Effect of different flue gas recirculation rates on low‐NOx combustion characteristics: A numerical simulation based on the combustion process of a gas boiler

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract NOx emissions from gas boilers severely impact the environment, and flue gas recirculation (FGR) technology can effectively reduce such emissions, yet the effects of different FGR rates on combustion performance and NOx formation remain unclear. This study thus used numerical simulation (via ANSYS Fluent, adopting the realizable k‐ε turbulence

Reuse of Water as Part of a Water Sustainability Strategy: Experiences of Germany and Poland

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wastewater can provide an alternative supply of scarce water resources, particularly for operations that do not require high‐quality water. The uptake in wastewater usage is likely to be driven by a combination of public and private sector actors via internal actions and external collaborations.

Strengthening urban resilience in China through underground infrastructures management: Addressing global climate challenges with technological solutions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This paper explores how climate‐resilient technologies, such as smart grids, digital twins, and self‐healing materials, can enhance urban resilience. It highlights the urgent need for proactive planning, public‐private collaboration, and data‐driven innovation to future‐proof underground infrastructure amid accelerating climate and urban pressures ...

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...

Starving for Data: Eating Disorders Prevalence and Research Gaps in Southern Africa

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Studies reporting prevalence estimates of eating disorders in Southern Africa are scarce. To fill this gap, the present Research Forum reviews existing literature on the prevalence of eating disorders, including as assessed by clinical interviews, screeners, and self‐reported behaviors, among individuals in Southern Africa.

Studying interspecific population synchrony: current status and future perspectives

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Interspecific population synchrony, or co‐fluctuations in the population dynamics and demographic parameters of different species, is an important ecological phenomenon with major implications for the stability of communities and ecosystems. It is also central in the context of biodiversity loss, as interspecific synchrony can influence how ecological ...
