In the production of sulfuric acid, sulfur cake—a waste product of the sulfur purification process—is formed in large quantities, which requires its disposal and use. For its use in composite materials, modification is necessary to conver...

Multi-component thermal luid technology optimizes development effects and has a strong adaptability, providing a new choice for the efficient development of heavy oil reservoirs. However, due to the significant differences between the phase behavior...

In deep mining engineering, coal often is subjected to the influence of cyclic loading and water. In order to study the effect of water on gas-containing coal with cyclic loading, the pore evolution, permeability and energy dissipation of gas-contain...

This paper explores the effects and impacts of the metallurgical process of quenching on grain-oriented strips of electrical steel. Experimental findings reveal that quenching resulted in increased hardness and an increased Young’s modulus. An...

Exposure to excessive concentrations of fluoride in potable water is harmful to human health; therefore, its limitation is deemed necessary. Among the commonly applied technologies, adsorption is selected, as it is a highly effective, simple, and eco...

In this study, methylene blue (MB) and eriochrome black T (EBT) dyes were removed with the waste Pinus nigra Arn. powders from Anatolian black pinecone (PC-PnA) within the framework of sustainability. UV–Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD...

The present work proposes a spectrophotometric method for deltamethrin determination using silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The AgNPs are spherical with a diameter of~11 nm and a negative surface charge with zeta potential ranging from −4.1 mV (pH...

The extract of the plant species Satureja hortensis L. (often used as traditional ethno-therapy and in food processing) was prepared using the ultrasonic extraction technique, and contains a large quantity of secondary metabolites, with scientific ev...

This article focuses on the safety valve of pressure vessels, and a new ferrofluid sealing device for pressure vessel safety valves is developed based on a special magnetic circuit. A combined method of numerical calculation and experimental analysis...

In this study, deep learning methods were used to detect potato beetles (Leptinotarsa decemlineata) on potato plants. High-resolution images were taken of fields with the help of a drone. Since these images were large in size, each one was divided in...
