摘要:
Fly ash (FA) and eggshells (ES) are common solid wastes with significant potential for the recovery of phosphorus from water. This study focuses on synthesizing a low-cost and environmental-friendly phosphate adsorbent called eggshell-fly ash geopolymer composite (EFG) using eggshells instead of chemicals. The CaO obtained from the high-temperature pyrolysis of eggshells provides active sites for phosphate adsorption, and CO(2) serves as a pore-forming agent. The phosphate adsorption performance of EFG varied with the eggshell-fly ash ratios and achieved a maximum of 49.92 mg P/g at an eggshell-fly ash ratio of 40 %. The adsorption process was well described by the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir model. EFG also exhibited a good regeneration performance through six-cycle experiments and achieved the highest phosphate desorption at pH 4.0. The results of the column experiment showed that EFG can be used as a filter media for phosphorus removal in a real-scale application with low cost. Soil burial test indicated saturated EFG has a good phosphate slow-release performance (maintained for up to 60 days). Overall, EFG has demonstrated to be a promising adsorbent for phosphorus recovery.

摘要:
Microplastics (MPs), a new type of pollutant, have attracted much attention worldwide. MPs are often complexed with other pollutants such as heavy metals, resulting in combined toxicity to organisms in the environment. Studies on the combined toxicity of MPs and heavy metals have usually focused on the marine, while on the freshwater are lacking. In order to understand the combined toxic effects of MPs and heavy metals in the freshwater, five typical MPs (PVC, PE, PP, PS, PET) were selected to investigate the adsorption characteristics of MPs to Pb(2+) before and after the MPs aging by ultraviolet (UV) irradiation through static adsorption tests. The results showed that UV aging enhanced adsorption of Pb(2+) by MPs. It is noteworthy that MPs-PET had the highest adsorption capacity for Pb(2+), and the interaction between MPs-PET and Pb(2+) was the strongest. We specifically selected MPs-PET to study its combined toxicity with Pb(2+) to Chlorella pyrenoidosa. In the combined toxicity test, MPs-PET and Pb(2+) had significant toxic effects on Chlorella pyrenoidosa in the individual exposure, and the toxicity of individual Pb(2+) exposure was greater than that of individual MPs-PET exposure. In the combined exposure, when MPs-PET and Pb(2+) without adsorption (MPs-PET/Pb(2+)), MPs-PET and Pb(2+) had a synergistic effect, which would produce strong physical and chemical stress on Chlorella pyrenoidosa simultaneously, and the toxic effect was the most significant. After the adsorption of MPs-PET and Pb(2+) (MPs-PET@Pb(2+)), the concentration and activity of Pb(2+) decreased due to the adsorption and fixation of MPs-PET, and the chemical stress on Chlorella pyrenoidosa was reduced, but the physical stress of MPs-PET still existed and posed a serious threat to the survival of Chlorella pyrenoidosa. This study has provided a theoretical basis for further assessment of the potential environmental risks of MPs in combination with other pollutants such as heavy metals.
摘要:
Thus far, the available works on sequencing flexibility in shop floor scheduling only consider the sequencing flexibility with serial operation constraint. However, the sequencing flexibility with discrete and hybrid operation constraints are also widely existed in the actual production and have significant impact on production efficiency. Therefore, this work proposes a distributed flexible job shop scheduling problem considering integrated sequencing flexibility (DFJSPS), in which the serial, discrete and hybrid operation constraints are considered simultaneously. A mixed integer linear programming model is proposed to solve the DFJSPS by using the CPLEX solver. Then, an efficient memetic algorithm (EMA) is designed with the objectives of minimizing makespan and total energy consumption. In the EMA, a five-layer coding method and an efficient initialization method are presented to obtain high quality initial solutions; and an efficient local search operator is designed to help the algorithm to improve its convergence speed. Comprehensive experiments show that the EMA outperforms other three well-known algorithms in most of the instances, demonstrating the superior performance of EMA for solving DFJSPS in terms of both computational efficiency and solution quality. In summary, the research fills the research gap on integrated sequencing flexibility in the field of shop floor scheduling; on the other hand, it can help production managers to obtain the efficient scheduling schemas in the decision-making systems about various types of sequencing flexibility.
摘要:
Solid-state LiDARs have become an important perceptual device for simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) due to its low-cost and high-reliability compared to mechanical LiDARs. Nevertheless, existing solid-state LiDARs-based SLAM methods face challenges, including drift and mapping inconsistency, when operating in dynamic environments over extended periods and long distances. To this end, this paper proposes a robust, high-precision, real-time LiDAR-inertial SLAM method for solid-state LiDARs. At the front-end, the raw point cloud is segmented to filter dynamic points in preprocessing process. Subsequently, features are extracted using a combination of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Mean Clustering to reduce redundant points and improve data processing efficiency. At the back-end, a hierarchical fusion method is proposed to improve the accuracy of the system by fusing the feature information to iteratively optimize the LiDAR frames, and then adaptively selecting the LiDAR keyframes to be fused with the IMU. The proposed method is extensively evaluated using a Livox Avia solid-state LiDAR collecting datasets on two different platforms. In experiments, the end-to-end error is reduced by 35% and the single-frame operational efficiency is improved by 12% compared to LiLi-OM.

摘要:
Entity event deduplication is the task of identifying all duplication entity events that have described the same entity within a set of events. However, the traditional entity event deduplication method has two challenges. First, the traditional method usually used global comparison when finding the duplication entity event, are all entity events in the dataset need to be compared, leading to low performance. Second, when the entity event evolves, the traditional method does not identify it well and reduces the effectiveness. To address these two problems and improve the performance and effectiveness, we propose a two-stage deduplication method based on graph node selection and optimization (TS-NSNO) strategy. In the first stage (TS-NS), we propose a graph node selection strategy, which transforms the global comparison into a local comparison by selecting the leader node, greatly reduces the number of calculations and improves the performance. In the second stage (TS-NO), we propose a graph node optimization strategy, by combining the spatiotemporal distance and entity event importance change of the event evolution, which optimizes the entity event with incorrect judgment to improve the effectiveness. We conduct extensive experiments on real entity event datasets of different sizes, and the results show that our method performs better in terms of performance and effectiveness.
摘要:
The ultrasensitive detection of hepatitis C virus (HCV) nucleic acid is crucial for the early diagnosis of hepatitis C. In this study, by combining Ag@Au core/shell nanoparticle (Ag@AuNP)-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) tag with hybridization chain reaction (HCR), a novel SERS-sensing method was developed for the ultrasensitive detection of HCV nucleic acid. This SERS-sensing system comprised two different SERS tags, which were constructed by modifying Ag@AuNP with a Raman reporter molecule of 4-ethynylbezaldehyde, two different hairpin-structured HCR sequences (H1 or H2), and a detection plate prepared by immobilizinga capture DNA sequence onto the Ag@AuNP layer surface of the detection wells. When thetarget nucleic acid was present, the two SERS tags were captured on the surface of the Ag@AuNP-coated detection well to generate many "hot spots" through HCR, forming a strong SERS signal and realizing the ultrasensitive detection of thetarget HCV nucleic acid. The limit of detection of the SERS-sensing method for HCV nucleic acid was 0.47 fM, and the linear range was from 1 to 10(5) fM.
摘要:
Our results highlight the regulatory role of the negative bacterial‐fungal association in enhancing the correlation between bacterial diversity and C mineralisation. This suggests that promoting short‐term successive planting in the management of Eucalyptus plantations can mitigate the impact of this association on SOC decomposition. Taken together, our study advances the understanding of bacterial‐fungal negative associations to mediate carbon mineralisation in Eucalyptus plantations, giving us a new insight into SOC cycling dynamics in artificial forests. Abstract Bacteria and fungi are core microorganisms in diverse ecosystems, and their cross‐kingdom interactions are considered key determinants of microbiome structure and ecosystem functioning. However, how bacterial‐fungal interactions mediate soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics remains largely unexplored in the context of artificial forest ecosystems. Here, we characterised soil bacterial and fungal communities in four successive planting of Eucalyptus and compared them to a neighbouring evergreen broadleaf forest. Carbon (C) mineralisation combined with five C‐degrading enzymatic activities was investigated to determine the effects of successive planting of Eucalyptus on SOC dynamics. Our results indicated that successive planting of Eucalyptus significantly altered the diversity and structure of soil bacterial and fungal communities and increased the negative bacterial‐fungal associations. The bacterial diversity significantly decreased in all Eucalyptus plantations compared to the evergreen forest, while the fungal diversity showed the opposite trend. The ratio of negative bacterial‐fungal associations increased with successive planting of Eucalyptus due to the decrease in SOC, ammonia nitrogen (NH4+‐N), nitrate nitrogen (NO3−‐N) and available phosphorus (AP). Structural equation modelling indicated that the potential cross‐kingdom competition, based on the ratio of negative bacterial‐fungal correlations, was significantly negatively associated with the diversity of total bacteria and keystone bacteria, thereby increasing C‐degrading enzymatic activities and C mineralisation. Synthesis and applications: Our results highlight the regulatory role of the negative bacterial‐fungal association in enhancing the correlation between bacterial diversity and C mineralisation. This suggests that promoting short‐term successive planting in the management of Eucalyptus plantations can mitigate the impact of this association on SOC decomposition. Taken together, our study advances the understanding of bacterial‐fungal negative associations to mediate carbon mineralisation in Eucalyptus plantations, giving us a new insight into SOC cycling dynamics in artificial forests.

摘要:
The utilization of wood-derived carbon thick electrodes has demonstrated remarkable structural advantages in the realm of electrochemical energy storage and catalysis. Its exceptional structural stability, mechanical strength, and well-organized pore structure position it as a promising material for self-supporting electrodes. The multi-scale cross-linking of lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose within the wood tracheid wall establishes a convenient prerequisite for structural modification. However, the significance of dynamic nanopores on wood tracheid walls in enhancing the microporous/mesoporous structure of wood-derived carbon electrodes has been overlooked due to the focus on operability of microscale array pores and wood decomposition processes. Here, we employ a straightforward, highly efficient, and environmentally sustainable solvent infiltration strategy to enhance the nanopore content within the wood tracheid wall, ultimately resulting in a significant enhancement of the microporous/mesoporous composition within the wood-derived electrode. The charge storage capacity of wood-derived carbon electrode is doubled through the implementation of a solvent permeation modification strategy, while its abundant micro/mesoporous structure also endows it with significant potential in the field of electrocatalysis. Therefore, this thermal and solvent permeation modification strategy is anticipated to supplant the conventional acid-base etching method and offer a novel research concept for the advancement of wood-based carbon electrodes with abundant pore structure and exceptional electrochemical properties.

摘要:
In this work, we have developed a composite chitosan film incorporating the Litsea cubeba essential oil (LCEO) and starch with good physical properties, and investigated the effect of coating strawberries with this composite film. The best formula of the LCEO/chitosan/corn starch/glycerol (LCEO/CH/CS/gly) composite films is 0.25% LCEO, 2.75% CH, 0.40% corn starch, and 0.75% glycerol. Coating strawberries with CH/CS/gly film or LCEO/CH/CS/gly films resulted in significantly lower respiration intensity and a slower decay rate, much slower decreases in the firmness, and reductions in the sugar and ascorbic acid content of the fruit during storage (p < 0.05). The coatings also led to a much slower accumulation of malondialdehyde and anthocyanins (p < 0.05). The LCEO/CH/CS/gly film was generally more effective than the CH/CS/gly film; however, the effect was more obvious in the later stages of storage. Thus, coating strawberries with CH/CS/gly film or LCEO/CH/CS/gly film can be a viable method for extending the shelf-life of the fruit.

摘要:
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease, and it is a multifactorial disease of the intestinal mucosa. Oxidative stress damage and inflammation are major risk factors for IBD. Vitamin E has powerful antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Our previous work and other investigations have shown that vitamin E has a positive effect on the prevention and treatment of IBD. In this paper, the source and structure of vitamin E and the potential mechanism of vitamin E’s role in IBD were summarized, and we also analyzed the status of vitamin E deficiency in patients with IBD and the effect of vitamin E supplementation on IBD. The potential mechanisms by which vitamin E plays a role in the prevention and treatment of IBD include improvement of oxidative damage, enhancement of immunity, maintenance of intestinal barrier integrity, and suppression of inflammatory cytokines, modulating the gut microbiota and other relevant factors. The review will improve our understanding of the complex mechanism by which vitamin E inhibits IBD, and it also provides references for doctors in clinical practice and researchers in this field.
摘要:
Enzymatic hydrolysis lignin residues (EHLRs) of lignocellulose usually adsorbs cellulase, which can be recycled and used to replace parts of cellulase in the hydrolysis process. To understand this phenomenon during enzymatic hydrolysis (EH) of sugarcane bagasse (SCB) treated with sulfite (SPORL) and dilute acid (DA), the adsorption characteristics between lignin and cellulase in EHLRs were investigated, focusing on interaction force at molecular level and enzymatic activity. The results revealed that SPORL-EHLR adsorbed more beta-glucosidases (beta-GLs) through the stronger electrostatic attraction and hydrogen bond force, causing higher cellulase adsorption amount compared to DA-EHLR. Further exploration demonstrated that the cellobiose's catalytic and binding sites on beta-GLs were separated from the binding site of SPORL-EHLR on beta-GLs, resulting in minimal in-hibition of beta-GLs activity when bound to SPORL-EHLR. Furthermore, adding SPORL-EHLR in SCB hydrolysis saved 40% cellulase. This study deepens the understanding of the adsorption behavior between lignin and cellulase.
