Multistage Optimizing Optical Limiting by Introducing Platinum Species in Metal-Porphyrinic Framework Thin Films.

Designing multimechanistic composite materials to overcome the boundedness of individual optical limiting (OL) materials is extremely important but remains challenging. Herein, the Pt species decorated metal-porphyrinic framework thin film was first fabricated by impregnating the ZnTCPP(H) MOF thin film with the KPtCl precursor and HCHO reduction approach and serves as an effective OL device. The resulting Pt NPs@ZnTCPP(Pt) thin film synergistically combines the nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of metallic/organic nanostructures and exhibits strong OL performance with a giant nonlinear absorption coefficient (6.

Sustainable protein/polysaccharide aerogel for the simultaneous and efficient removal of multiple organic contaminants: Insights from DFT calculations and phenomenological mass-transfer modeling.

Wastewater contains various organic contaminants that pose great hazards to human health and the environment. A protein/polysaccharide-derived aerogel, namely, ICMA, was developed as a high-performance adsorbent for the simultaneous and efficient removal of diverse contaminants from wastewater, including melanoidin (MLE), Congo red (CR), and diclofenac (DIC). Metal organic framework (UiO-66-NH), as a regulatory factor, significantly improved the porosity and pore volume of the ICMA to enhance the capture performance of contaminants.

Anaerobic-anoxic-oxic biological treatment of high-strength, highly recalcitrant polyphenylene sulfide wastewater.

This paper outlines an integrated anaerobic-anoxic-oxic (A2O) treatment scheme for high-strength, highly recalcitrant wastewater from the production of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) resins and their composite chemicals. An integrated anaerobic granular sludge blanket (GSB) and anoxic-oxic (AO) reactor indicated that the A2O removed chemical oxygen demand (COD) of up to 7,043 mg/L with no adverse impact from high total dissolved solids (25,000 mg/L) on the GSB COD removal and effluent suspended solids. At a Total Kjeldahl Nitrogen (TKN) nitrification load of 0.

Three Nutritional Indices Are Effective Predictors of Mortality in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Foot Ulcers.

Introduction: Malnutrition has been associated with mortality in various diseases. This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the relationship between three nutritional indices and all-cause mortality in patients with diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs).

Materials And Methods: A total of 771 patients diagnosed with DFUs in the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from 2015 to 2019 were included in this retrospective cohort study.

Spontaneous Adsorption of Graphene Oxide on Multiple Polymeric Surfaces.

The controllable integration of low-dimensional nanomaterials on solid surfaces is pivotal for the fabrication of next-generation miniaturized electronic and optoelectronic devices. For instance, organization of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials on polymeric surfaces paves the way for the development of flexible electronics for applications in wearable devices. Nevertheless, the understanding of the molecular interactions between these nanomaterials and the polymeric surfaces remains limited, which impedes the rational design of 2D nanomaterial-based functional coatings.

How Much Is the Eco-Efficiency of Agricultural Production in West China? Evidence from the Village Level Data.

This study evaluates the eco-efficiency of agriculture in Pupiao Town, in the Yunnan province of China, through micro-level research. The term "eco-efficiency" refers to the efficiency with which ecological resources are used to meet human needs. Interviews and field research were conducted to collect the data of the 23 villages from 2016 to 2018.
