Abstract

In this work, a highly efficient adsorbent consisting of the ZnO/Graphene composite was prepared for the first time via the sonification route using urea as an alkaline precursor. The synthesized ZnO/Graphene composite provides the highest specific surface area comparing to other ZnO/Graphene composites synthesized by different approaches presented in the literature. For all we know, this is the first time the obtained ZnO/Graphene composite was used as an adsorbent for the transformer oil purification. The results showed that the ZnO/Graphene composite has a higher purification capacity than the conventional adsorbent, a commercial zeolite. Several factors that may underpin this outstanding result, such as the unreduced oxygen functional groups, the vacancy defects on the surface of the RGO flake, the high specific surface area, and the suitable pore size of the ZnO/Graphene composite for oil refining. Besides, the 3D structure of the ZnO/Graphene composite can enlarge the residence purification time of the transformer oil, helping to improve the purification capacity of the ZnO/Graphene composite.

Abstract

High specific surface area ZnCo2O4 nanoparticles were prepared via a sacrificial template accelerated hydrolysis by using nanoparticles of ZnO with highly polar properties as a template. The obtained ZnCo2O4 nanoparticles were characterized by the method of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area measurements, Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The obtained nanoparticles were performed as a photocatalyst for the degradation of methylene blue in aqueous solution under visible irradiation. The photocatalytic degradation rate of methylene blue onto the synthesized ZnCo2O4 was higher than that of commercial ZnO and synthesized ZnO template.

Elemental sulfur was then loaded to the micropores through a solution infiltration method to form rice husk-derived activated carbon (RHAC)@S composite materials. The as-prepared RHAC@S composites with 0.25 mg cm−1 and 0.38 mg cm−1 of sulfur loading were tested as cathodes for lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries. The 0.25 mg cm−1 sulfur loaded sample showed an initial discharge capacity of 1080 mA h/g at a 0.1 C rate. After 50 cycles of charge/discharge tests at the current density of 0.2 C, the reversible capacity is maintained at 312 mA h/g. The RHAC material delivered a capacity of more than 300 mA h/g at a current density of 1.7 C. These results demonstrate that the RHAC porous materials are very promising as cathode materials for the development of high-performance Li-S batteries.

Abstract

In this study, TiO2 nanomaterials were prepared using a solvothermal method and codoped with Co2+ and Fe3+ ions for the photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants under visible light. The physicochemical properties of the obtained materials were studied by powder X-ray diffraction, field emission electron scanning microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption isotherms. Optical absorption was characterized by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy. The photocatalytic activities of the prepared materials were evaluated through methylene blue (MB) degradation under visible light irradiation. Results showed the excellent performance of MB degradation investigated on TiO2 samples codoped with Co2+ and Fe3+ in comparison with undoped and Co2+-doped TiO2 samples. The codoped TiO2 samples degraded 85%–90% of MB after 120 min, whereas all the prepared TiO2 samples were composed of pure anatase phase and had a spherical-like shape and mean crystalline size ranging from 6.2 nm to 7.8 determined by Scherrer’s equation. The optical absorption of the TiO2 codoped with Co2+ and Fe3+ was significantly enhanced toward the visible light region. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model fits well for the degradation of MB on as-prepared TiO2 codoped with Co2+ and Fe3+.

Abstract

For the first time, the nanoflower-like zinc borate compound was obtained by precipitation at room temperature using zinc oxide nanoparticles as a precursor. The obtained zinc borates were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and Raman spectroscopy analysis. Monoclinic of zinc borate 2ZnO. 3B _2 O _3 .3.5H _2 O was achieved under the XRD pattern and the elemental chemical analysis. The particle size of the obtained materials is approximately 5 nm using TEM analysis. The TGA shows that the achieved zinc borate is outstanding stable at high temperatures. The result of this work provides a new route for the fabrication of zinc borate nanoparticle, which could be widely used in many applications.

Abstract

In this study, a quick, simple, green method of converting carbohydrates into 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) with the use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) was reported on. We synthesized 12 DESs for HMF conversion from carbohydrates which were studied under different conditions. Under optimal conditions, oxalic acid and citric acid with a choline chloride-based DES produced a maximum yield of HMF at 59 ± 2% and 62 ± 3% in 5 min at 120 °C, respectively. The efficiency of converting glucose to HMF in a short time (5 min) at 140 °C using CrCl3 with a choline chloride-based DES was around 37 ± 1%, which was higher than in previous work. This study demonstrates the significant potential of DESs as a combination for the continuous catalytic transformation of biomass in the synthesis of platform chemicals. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Household food security in Vietnam remains tenuous. We surveyed 552 households to investigate household food insecurity (HFI) in rural districts in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. HFI prevalence was 34.4% and 48.4% in the last month and last year, respectively. Khmer households were twice as likely to experience HFI compared to their Kinh counterparts. The primary factors associated with HFI were weak livelihood assets including lower natural, financial, and human assets (being landless, low incomes), physical and social assets (poor market access, social networks), lower kitchen utensil scores, belonging to a minority and experiencing financial, agricultural, and extreme weather shocks.

Abstract

Healthy, diverse diets are vital for life. In low/middle-income countries, however, the focus is more on food quantity rather than diet quality. This study assessed household diet diversity (HDD) in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta and its associations with household food insecurity (HFI) and household food availability (HFA) controlling for socioeconomic factors. Primary food-preparers in 552 randomly selected households in two rural provinces were interviewed about socioeconomic factors, HDD, HFI, and HFA. More than 80% of households predominantly consumed energy-dense foods, whereas less than 20% consumed nutrient-dense foods. Lower HDD was associated with HFI, lower HFA, for the Khmer ethnic minority, and low livelihood capitals (landlessness, low expenditure, debt) and low utensil scores. The study highlighted the need to provide improved food and nutrition policies that increase availability and access to diverse and healthy foods as well as reduce poverty and increase incomes for at-risk rural and ethnic minority groups.

Abstract

Comprehensive knowledge of the brain's wiring diagram is fundamental for understanding how the nervous system processes information at both local and global scales. However, with the singular exception of the C. elegans microscale connectome, there are no complete connectivity data sets in other species. Here we report a brain-wide, cellular-level, mesoscale connectome for the mouse. The Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas uses enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP)-expressing adeno-associated viral vectors to trace axonal projections from defined regions and cell types, and high-throughput serial two-photon tomography to image the EGFP-labelled axons throughout the brain. This systematic and standardized approach allows spatial registration of individual experiments into a common three dimensional (3D) reference space, resulting in a whole-brain connectivity matrix. A computational model yields insights into connectional strength distribution, symmetry and other network properties. Virtual tractography illustrates 3D topography among interconnected regions. Cortico-thalamic pathway analysis demonstrates segregation and integration of parallel pathways. The Allen Mouse Brain Connectivity Atlas is a freely available, foundational resource for structural and functional investigations into the neural circuits that support behavioural and cognitive processes in health and disease., A central principle of neuroscience is that the nervous system is a network of diverse types of neurons and supporting cells communicating with each other mainly through synaptic connections.

Abstract

The rapid development of megacities, and their growing connectedness across the world is becoming a distinct driver for emerging disease outbreaks. Early detection of unusual disease emergence and spread should therefore include such cities as part of risk-based surveillance. A catch-all metagenomic sequencing approach of urban sewage could potentially provide an unbiased insight into the dynamics of viral pathogens circulating in a community irrespective of access to care, a potential which already has been proven for the surveillance of poliovirus. Here, we present a detailed characterization of sewage viromes from a snapshot of 81 high density urban areas across the globe, including in-depth assessment of potential biases, as a proof of concept for catch-all viral pathogen surveillance. We show the ability to detect a wide range of viruses and geographical and seasonal differences for specific viral groups. Our findings offer a cross-sectional baseline for further research in viral surveillance from urban sewage samples and place previous studies in a global perspective.

Abstract

Water-related damages are of major concern to the reliability of underground lines. Several strategies are developed to prevent water entry in extruded cables. Strand-filled cables are one of the available means to prevent water penetration and circulation in underground cable conductors, thus eliminating aluminum conductor corrosion and hydrogen gas buildup as well as reducing water-related treeing. However, published results on the connection performance with strand-filled aluminum conductors were scant and inconclusive. This report summarizes our latest findings on the subject with more conclusive data and some unexpected results. Index Terms--Connectors, contacts, stranded conductors.

Abstract

Introduction: Household food insecurity and inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) contribute to ill health. However, the interactions between household food insecurity, WASH and health have been rarely assessed concurrently. This study investigated compounded impacts of household food insecurity and WASH on self-reported physical and mental health of adults in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional survey interviewed 552 households in one northern and one southern province of the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. The survey incorporated previously validated tools such as the Short Form 12-item Health Survey, Household Food Insecurity Assessment Scale, and the Access and Behavioural Outcome Indicators for Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene. Physical and mental health were quantified using the physical health composite score (PCS) and mental health composite score (MCS), respectively. These measures were the dependent variables of interest for this study. Results: Statistical analysis revealed that household food insecurity and using <50 litres of water per person per day (pppd) were independently associated with lower PCS (p<0.05), after adjusting for socio-economic confounders. Household food insecurity and lack of food availability, using <50 litres of water pppd, and the use of untreated drinking water were associated with lower MCS (p<0.05), with water usage being an effect modifier of the relationship between household food insecurity and MCS. The results indicate that being food insecure and having limited potable quality water had a compounding effect on MCS, compared to being individually either food insecure or having limited water. Conclusion: This study is one of only a few that have established a link between potable water availability, food insecurity and poorer physical and mental health. The results also indicate a need to validate national data with fine-scale investigations in less populous regions to evaluate national initiatives with local populations that may be at higher risk. Adopting joint dual-action policies for interventions that simultaneously address water and food insecurity should result in larger improvements in health, particularly mental health, compared to targeting either food or water insecurity in isolation.
