This work investigated the modification of MnOx catalysts by doping various metals (e.g., Cu) and supporting them on cordierite honeycomb ceramics using the impregnation method. The catalysts were characterized by BET, XRD, SEM-EDX, and H2-TPR techniques. The Cu1Mn2Ox catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance, achieving complete oxidation of benzene and toluene at 275°C with a WHSV of 18,000 mL/(g·h).

Water is an important resource for human life. The lack of clean water in the world now becomes more serious. As a result, seawater desalination to produce fresh water is becoming indispensable. In recent years, hydrate-based desalination is a potential solution for the drinking water shortage issue. Recently, Cyclopentane (CP) is used as a hydrate former for desalination process via crystallization at low temperature and atmospheric pressure.

In this study, Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles with a size of about 50 - 70 nm were green-synthesized using tea leaves and ZnO/Polypyrrole (ZnO/Ppy) nanocomposites were obtained by ultrasonic-assisted chemical polymerization method using pyrrole monomer and the nanoparticles. The characterization of the materials is conducted using several analytical techniques, including Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Ultraviolet visible spectrum (UV-Vis).

The objective of this study is to investigate the hotspot (fires and other thermal anomalies) detection and characterization product from the TET-1 satellite sensing system from the German Aerospace Centre (DLR). The satellite is envisioned, as part of a constellation of satellites, to provide detection and characterization of fires at a higher spatial resolution when compared to the current standard global coverage from the MODIS fire products.

The main aim of this investigation was to develop a low-cost solution to remove trace metals from the aqueous phase using biochar. This study investigated (i) the effect of giant reed-based biochar produced at varying temperatures in the treatment of aqueous solutions polluted with lead; and (ii) how the production of biochar at different temperatures affected its adsorption capacity for lead from the aqueous phase.

The aim of the work "Activated carbon derived from rice husk by NaOH activation and its application in supercapacitor" is to prepare a low-cost, high specific surface area activated carbon with microporous and mesoporous ranges using rice husk as the raw material. The effects of activation temperature on the specific surface area, pore structure, morphology and thermal stability of the AC samples have been examined. The AC samples were proved to be excellent electrode material for supercapacitor, hence solve the disposal and pollution problems of rice husk.

Geothermal energy constitutes an important renewable resource in Turkey that has been extensively utilized for heating buildings, power generation, greenhouse farming and various other industries. One of the most remarkable geothermal locations in Turkey is the low-enthalpy area of Afyon, where five main low-temperature (30–110℃) geothermal fields are exploited. However, further exploration drilling sites have proven inconclusive, casting doubts on the effective presence of high-temperature geothermal systems in the region.

Wet periods are evidenced by dark olive green mixed lithology (sandy, clay, and silts) and high values in MS and log(Sr/Ca). On the other hand, dry periods are associated with light olive green clayey mud lithology and high values in log(Ca/K). We relate the wet periods to negative North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO–) and the dry periods to NAO+. Additionally, all wet periods are related with time of low solar activity and dry periods, except Dalton Minimum, are related with periods of high solar activity.

Fermentation is a complicated process which depends on a variety of conditions. In order to gain high fermentation efficiency with a low level of toxins and impurities to obtain good products, it is essential to determine suitable conditions for the process. Within the scope of this study, the effects of some key conditions was estimated (i.e. pH, temperature, SO2 level in fermentation broth, the inoculation rates of yeast cells, sugar level) for the fermentation of corn with Saccharomyces cerevisiae MS42.

We report on an environmentally friendly and versatile chemical solution deposition route to K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) thin films. The excess amounts of K and Na in KNN precursor solutions was found to be strong influence on perovskite KNN single-phase thin films. It was revealed from Raman spectroscopic analysis data that a change in scattering mode was observed for the KNN thin films fabricated under various processing conditions.

Influence of substitution of 3d metals for Mn on properties of La0.67Ca0.33Mn0.9 TM0.1O3 (TM = Fe, Co, Ni) compounds was studied. Ferromagnetic – paramagnetic and metals – insulator transitions were significantly affected by Mn-site substitution. However, no observable difference was found in their crystal structure from X-ray diffraction analysis. At room temperature the structure characterization of these compounds gave the single phase and structure is the distortion orthorhombic cell with space group symmetry Pnma.

MYRRHA is a multi-purpose research reactor able to operate in sub-critical and critical modes and currently in the design phase at SCK•CEN. The choice of LBE was driven by its chemical stability, low melting temperature, high boiling point, low chemical reactivity with water and air and a good neutronic performance.
