A Guideline to Evaluate Sorbent Performance for Atmospheric Water Harvesting
Reporting guidelines for atmospheric water harvesting sorbents allow benchmarking between research groups across seven key performance indicators (KPIs). Beyond simple equilibrium values (such as capacity or maximum water uptake), these KPIs validate sensitivity, reversibility, regeneration conditions, chemical stability, kinetics, and water quality ...

Removal of Trihalomethanes from Water using Modified Montmorillonite
Trihalomethanes (THMs) are formed during the water chlorination process through the reaction between chlorine and the organic materials. In this research, montmorillonite (MMT) and its modified form were used to remove the THMs from the water.

Cattle slaughter effluent disinfected with peracetic acid increased toxicity to E. fetida and V. fischeri and increased soil degradability. Cattle slaughter effluent did not demonstrate toxicity to V. fischeri. ABSTRACT The increasing volume of effluents generated by slaughterhouses is driving studies that seek sustainable alternatives for their reuse ...

Disinfection by-products and extractable organic compounds in South African tap water
An important step in urban purification of drinking water is disinfection by e.g. chlorination where potential pathogenic micro-organisms in the water supply are killed.

Validation of Sanitizer Concentration to Reduce Cross‐Contamination Risk During Washing of Apples
Eighty parts per million PAA was more effective at removing E. coli TVS353 on inoculated apples at both COD levels, achieving reduction levels of 5.3–6.0 log MPN/apple compared to 80 ppm NaOCl (2.9–3.7 log MPN/apple). Both sanitizers were effective at preventing E. coli cross‐contamination compared to no sanitizer treatment.

ABSTRACT Background Generally, studies in perinatal epidemiology restrict cohort entry to 20 weeks of gestation, but exposures and outcomes may occur earlier. This restriction may introduce left truncation bias. Objectives To examine the impact of left truncation bias when estimating the causal effect of abruption on perinatal mortality in the context ...

Should the non‐canonical pathway of nitric oxide generation be targeted in hypertensive pregnancies?
Abstract Hypertension in pregnancy is prevalent, affecting around 10% of pregnancies worldwide, and significantly increases the risk of adverse outcomes for both mothers and their babies. Current treatment strategies for pregnant women with hypertension are limited, and new approaches for the management of hypertension in pregnancy are urgently needed.

E. coli in Municipal Wastewater and Its Degradation Using Advanced Oxidation Processes
Pathogenic microorganisms in wastewater pose serious health concerns. Several wastewater treatment facilities in parts of Africa discharge wastewater that has not been disinfected. In this regard, more effective approaches in wastewater disinfection are needed to tackle the problem of bacterial contamination. Various advanced oxidation processes (AOPs)
