Nanohybrid of Silver‐MXene: A Promising Sorbent for Iodine Gas Capture from Nuclear Waste

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Silver‐MXene (Ag‐Ti3C2Tx) nanohybrids effectively captured iodine gas at 150 °C, with Ag nanoparticles loaded onto MXene via silver nitrate reduction. Upon exposure to iodine gas, silver iodide forms, confirming successful adsorption. Ag‐Ti3C2Tx shows superior iodine uptake (946 mg g−1) compared to conventional sorbents, demonstrating its potential as ...

Self‐Supporting Graphene Foam for the Removal of Chlorine from Water

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Graphene‐based porous materials are promising for sorption and catalysis but often require binders. This study presents a self‐supporting graphene foam made from graphene oxide and hydrazine vapor. Structural, mechanical, and functional analyses confirm its superior chlorine removal efficiency (97%) and reusability, outperforming activated carbon in ...

Spatio-Temporal Variability of the Pepper Mild Mottle Virus Biomarker in Wastewater [PDF]

arXiv
Since the start of the coronavirus-19 pandemic, the use of wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) for disease surveillance has increased throughout the world. Because wastewater measurements are affected by external factors, processing WBE data typically includes a normalization step in order to adjust wastewater measurements (e.g.

Fluorescence Label‐Free Doxorubicin Sensor Using Polystyrene Sulfonate as a Synthetic Receptor in Whispering Gallery Mode Microresonators

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
The illustration showcases resonant optical microsensors for Doxorubicin (DXR) detection, using polystyrene sulfonate (PSS) as a synthetic receptor. PSS is deposited as a nanometer‐thick layer on fluorescent microparticles via layer‐by‐layer assembly. DXR‐PSS interaction is depicted, highlighting its effect on the sensor's resonant modes.

Effects of stocking density on the performance of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in small‐scale lettuce‐Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus L.) aquaponic system

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 458-469, December 2022., 2022
Graphical Abstract : Aquaponics, hydroponics, stocking density. Abstract Aquaponics incorporates aquaculture with hydroponics, whose principles and operations largely remain untested. Currently, there is a knowledge gap on the performance of aquaponic systems used for fish production under different stocking densities.

Wastewater-based Epidemiology for COVID-19 Surveillance and Beyond: A Survey [PDF]

arXiv
The pandemic of COVID-19 has imposed tremendous pressure on public health systems and social economic ecosystems over the past years. To alleviate its social impact, it is important to proactively track the prevalence of COVID-19 within communities. The traditional way to estimate the disease prevalence is to estimate from reported clinical test data ...
