Photocatalytic reduction and scavenging of Hg(II) over templated-dewetted Au on TiO$_2$ nanotubes [PDF]
, 2020 Gold-decorated TiO$_2$ nanotubes were used for the photocatalytic abatement of Hg(II) in aqueous solutions. The presence of dewetted Au nanoparticles induces a strong enhancement of photocatalytic reduction and scavenging performances, with respect to naked TiO$_2$. In the presence of chlorides, a massive formation of Hg2Cl2 nanowires, produced from Au

Active Hydrogen for Electrochemical Ammonia Synthesis
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the active hydrogen (H*) for electrochemical ammonia synthesis with particular attention given to the regulation of H* generation and consumption to suppress the competition of hydrogen evolution reaction and enhance the yield, selectivity, and Faradaic efficiency of ammonia.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.In this work, a magnetic core‐shell catalyst (HOF‐on‐Fe3O4/ZIF‐67) is successfully synthesized, consisting of a metal–organic framework (ZIF‐67) with magnetic Fe3O4 as the core and a porous hydrogen‐bonded organic framework (HOF) as the shell. The catalyst efficiently activated peroxymonosulfate, resulting in rapid and effective removal of water ...

Uncovering Forensic Taphonomic Agents: Animal Scavenging in the European Context
Biology, 2022 Animal scavenging by vertebrates can significantly alter human bodies and their deposition site. For instance, vertebrate animals can cause postmortem modification to a body, alter perimortem trauma, influence decomposition rates, disarticulate and ...

Aluminium in an ocean general circulation model compared with the West Atlantic Geotraces cruises [PDF]
J.Mar.Syst. 126 (2013) 3-23, 2012 A model of aluminium has been developed and implemented in an Ocean General Circulation Model (NEMO-PISCES). In the model, aluminium enters the ocean by means of dust deposition. The internal oceanic processes are described by advection, mixing and reversible scavenging.

Behaviour of free ranging wild boar towards their dead fellows: potential implications for the transmission of African swine fever [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 The behaviour of free ranging wild boar (Sus scrofa) towards carcasses of their conspecifics potentially infected with African swine fever (ASF) may significantly influence the course of an ASF epidemic. This study aims to better understand the behaviour
