Lack of safe water prevents 42 percent of the world's population from accessing sanitation. In 2021, the WHO estimated that there would be 784 million people without access to safe drinking water. With a well-planned system, the group aims to cut the number of people in need of drinkable water by half by 2015. These methods improve saltwater, which makes up 97 percent of the world's water. In this regard, a model that simulates the work of groundwater treatment firms using natural resources and renewable energy has been developed. There was a lack of continuous wind energy throughout most of Oman, where this model was put, and the necessity for a reverse osmosis system for constant maintenance because these projects rely on renewable energy everywhere. This article aims to create an autonomous desalination plant powered by solar and wind energy. A simulator model based on renewable energy groundwater purification systems was created for this aim. To treat subterranean water in distant areas of Oman using two renewable technologies to create enough electricity to run the reverse water purification and water purification system at the lowest cost. A turbine mounted vertically with a height of 1.5 meters and a diameter of 1 meter will produce 2304 liters per day and 800000 liters per year. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Coexistence of pyrochlore phase is one of the major problems in the preparation of lead magnesium niobate (PMN) based perovskites as it leads to deterioration of the dielectric and piezoelectric properties. Although the columbite precursor method substantially reduces the formation of pyrochlore phase, the success of this process depends on various process conditions such as reactivity of MgO, level of mixing or grinding, control of PbO volatility and reversibility of the reaction. Compositions in the system (1−x)[(1−y)PMN yPT]x BT (where PT = PbTiO3 and BT = BaTiO3) were prepared by the columbite route. Results show that addition of excess MgO and 4PbO·B2O3 glass before sintering not only eliminates the pyrochlore phase completely but also produces a series of ceramics with low firing temperature, very high dielectric constant, low dissipation factor, high d.c. resistivity and extremely low temperature coefficient of capacitance (TCC). The unusually low TCC values make these high K dielectrics suitable for application in multilayer ceramic capacitors having EIA specifications Y5P, Y5R and Y5S. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Summary: A problem spanning across many research fields is that processed data and research results are often scattered, which makes data access, analysis, extraction, and team sharing more challenging. We have developed a platform for researchers to easily manage tabular data with features like browsing, bookmarking, and linking to external open knowledge bases. The source code, originally designed for genomics research, is customizable for use by other fields or data, providing a no- to low-cost DIY system for research teams., Availability and Implementation: The source code of our DIY app is available on https://github.com/Carmona-MoraUCD/Human-Genomics-Browser. It can be downloaded and run by anyone with a web browser, Python3, and Node.js on their machine.
