Article Abstract

Deep desulfurization of fossil fuels has become urgently required because of the serious pollution by the large-scale use of fossil fuels. In this study, [PrSOHMIm]HSO@MIL-100(Fe) was synthesized by wet-impregnation of the ionic liquid (IL) of [PrSOHMIm]HSO on MIL-100(Fe). The construction of [PrSOHMIm]HSO@MIL-100(Fe) was then confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction, N adsorption-desorption experiments, infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis, and then applied in the oxidative desulfurization of model fuels. In comparison with the corresponding IL, [PrSOHMIm]HSO@MIL-100(Fe) showed an enhanced performance in the desulfurization rate of model fuels due to the increase of the mass transfer rate. Under the optimized conditions (oxidant to sulphur ratio = 25, oil to acetonitrile ratio = 1, and temperature = 60 °C), a sulphur removal rate of 99.3% was observed (initial sulphur concentration = 50 ppm). The sulphur removal of three sulphur compounds by catalytic oxidation and extraction followed the order of dibenzothiophene (DBT) > thiophene (T) > benzothiophene (BT).

Applications driven by large language models (LLMs) are reshaping higher education by offering innovative tools that enhance learning, streamline administrative tasks, and support scholarly work. However, their integration into education institutions raises ethical concerns related to bias, misinformation, and academic integrity, necessitating thoughtful institutional responses. This article explores the evolving role of LLMs in midwifery higher education, providing historical context, key capabilities, and ethical considerations.

For the first time, we examined the catalytic performance of a NiB/SiO catalyst with 10 wt % NiB in model hydrodesulfurization of 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT) also together with a competing nitrogen compound, that is, carbazole. The NiB/SiO catalyst (fresh, reduced, and spent) was characterized using the following techniques: N sorption, ICP, XRD, CO chemisorption, XPS, and elemental analysis. The results of XRD, XPS, and elemental analysis indicated the partial decomposition of the NiB phase into metallic nickel (accompanied by boron atoms) and partial sulfidation into NiS species under reaction conditions.

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) critically orchestrate inter-tissue and inter-organ communications and may play essential roles in heart-tumor interaction. However, whether cancer-secreted sEVs affect the progression of doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DOXIC) via orchestrating the tumor cell-cardiomyocyte crosstalk has not yet been explored. Herein, we reveal that Doxorubicin (DOX)-treated breast cancer cells secrete sEVs (D-BCC-sEVs) that exacerbate DOX-induced ferroptosis of human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (hiCMs).

The concept of the circular bioeconomy is a carbon neutral, sustainable system with zero waste. One vision for such an economy is based upon lignocellulosic biomass. This lignocellulosic circular bioeconomy requires CO absorption from biomass growth and the efficient deconstruction of recalcitrant biomass into solubilized and fractionated biopolymers which are then used as precursors for the sustainable production of high-quality liquid fuels, chemical bioproducts and bio-based materials.

In the present work, alkaline transesterification converted waste household cooking oil into biodiesel, a renewable alternative to fossil fuels. After characterising oil and choosing the independent variables of the reaction (methanol-to-oil molar ratio, catalyst concentration, temperature, and stirring), three dependent variables were selected to analyse biodiesel production globally, considering technical, energetic and environmental aspects. Therefore, biodiesel yield, energy intensity, and green chemistry balance were chosen as responses.
