Space-Efficient Hidden Surface Removal

open access: yes, 2016
We propose a space-efficient algorithm for hidden surface removal that combines one of the fastest previous algorithms for that problem with techniques based on bit manipulation. Such techniques had been successfully used in other settings, for example to reduce working space for several graph algorithms.

Enzymes Enhance Biofilm Removal Efficiency of Cleaners

open access: yesAntimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2016
ABSTRACT Efficient removal of biofilms from medical devices is a big challenge in health care to avoid hospital-acquired infections, especially from delicate devices like flexible endoscopes, which cannot be reprocessed using harsh chemicals or high temperatures.

Assessing the significance of knockout cascades in metabolic networks

open access: yes, 2012
Complex networks have been shown to be robust against random structural perturbations, but vulnerable against targeted attacks. Robustness analysis usually simulates the removal of individual or sets of nodes, followed by the assessment of the inflicted ...

Structural insights into an engineered feruloyl esterase with improved MHET degrading properties

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
A feruloyl esterase was engineered to mimic key features of MHETase, enhancing the degradation of PET oligomers. Structural and computational analysis reveal how a point mutation stabilizes the active site and reshapes the binding cleft, expading substrate scope.

A review of microplastics in wastewater treatment plants in Türkiye: Characteristics, removal efficiency, mitigation strategies for microplastic pollution and future perspective

open access: yesWater Science and Technology
The effluent of WWTPs is an important source of microplastics (MP) for the aquatic environment. In this review study, MPs in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in Türkiye and their removal from WWTPs are reviewed for the first time.

Restoring efficiency, removing sound

open access: yesTransformers Magazine, 2018
Increased renewable power generation, HVDC interconnections and geomagnetic effects all bias the AC grid with small direct currents which leads to two negative effects on transformers (theory of half-cycle saturation) increased noise and increased no-load losses. A unique solution is the DC compensation system, which is an add-on to a transformer which

Valosin‐containing protein counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its ATPase activity in vitro

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

The effect of nozzle number, concentration of input ammonia gas and scrubbing liquid pressure on NH3 removal efficiency of a spray tower

open access: yesSalāmat-i kār-i Īrān, 2018
Background and aims: Spray tower is a cost effective and simple equipment for ammonia gas purification. But its’ appropriate performance in the removal of ammonia gas is under question.

THE COMPARISON BETWEEN DIFFERENT TYPES OF CONSTRUCTED WETLANDS FOR BIOCHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND REMOVAL EFFICIENCY

open access: yesZbornik Radova: Geografski institut "Jovan Cvijić"
This research shows efficiency of constructed wetlands (CWs) to purify waste water in the case of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD). CWs such as surface flow (SF), subsurface flow (SSF), and hybrid (HYB) systems have been compared to provide an analysis ...

Dynamic modeling of nitrogen losses in river networks unravels the coupled effects of hydrological and biogeochemical processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The importance of lotic systems as sinks for nitrogen inputs is well recognized. A fraction of nitrogen in streamflow is removed to the atmosphere via denitrification with the remainder exported in streamflow as nitrogen loads.
