The global increase in metabolic syndrome, characterized by the dysregulation of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism accompanied by oxidative stress and chronic inflammation, has driven research into plant species rich in polyphenols capable of modulat...

The transition towards sustainable energy systems requires a paradigm shift from purely economic optimization to a holistic framework that internalizes environmental and social externalities. This article integrates social and environmental aspects i...

Irrigation with pig slurry has been employed to discharge large volumes of slurry and to recover resources. However, using swine wastewater for agricultural irrigation may cause the accumulation of heavy metals in soil and their potential leaching to...

With the increasing penetration of distributed energy resources in power systems, the coupling between transmission and distribution networks has become increasingly complex. How to ensure short-term voltage stability (STVS) and maintain the supply&n...

To address the engineering challenges of frequent flexural deformation and instability of composite roadway roofs and the difficulty in accurately controlling the support strength range during deep coal mining, this study takes the soft–hard in...

Oxidation of oils is a free-radical cascade of reactions leading to the formation of undesirable odors and tastes, nutrient degradation, and potentially harmful compounds. To better understand the oxidation process, the kinetic parameters were examin...

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have received significant attention as multifunctional platforms for chemical sensing due to their adjustable porosity, high specific surface area, and modular chemical architecture, which allow for customized ho...

Previous numerical simulations of polymer injectors often rely on fixed-viscosity models, which fail to accurately capture the severe shear degradation of non-Newtonian fluids under high-shear throttling conditions. To address this limitation and enh...

Textile wastewater contains recalcitrant azo dyes and auxiliary chemicals that are resistant to conventional biological treatment, resulting in persistent organic pollution in aquatic ecosystems. While supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) achieves su...

Ultrasound technology, or sonication, has emerged as a versatile and promising tool to enhance and speed up traditional processing operations used by the food industry or to be used as an alternative food-processing method. This review provides an ov...

Based on data from core observations, thin-section petrography, scanning electron microscopy, whole-rock X-ray diffraction, organic geochemical analysis, and element analysis, in this study, we characterized the mineralogical–petrological featu...

The increasing release of pharmaceutical pollutants, particularly antibiotics and analgesics, into aquatic environments poses a significant environmental challenge and necessitates sustainable removal strategies. In this study, lavender-derived bioch...

Advanced oxidation technology utilizing ozone as the oxidant shows great potential for the efficient purification of wastewater. However, the efficiency of ozone decomposition remains a significant bottleneck limiting the performance of ozone-based a...
