Article Abstract
Wastewater treatment plants （WWTPs） are considered to be the major source of microplastics entering natural water bodies， and research on microplastics in developing countries is still in its infancy. Taking Handan， a typical city in northern China， as the object， the characteristics of the removal rate of microplastics in the whole process of the first phase of a sewage treatment plant and the expansion project were studied. The results showed that： ① The shape of the wastewater microplastics was mainly fibrous microplastics， and the size of the wastewater microplastics was less than 0.5 mm. ② Among all levels of treatment， secondary treatment played a key role in the removal of microplastics. ③ The total removal rate of the first phase project and the expansion project in summer reached 90.20% and 84.75%， and the total removal rate in winter reached 93.75% and 82.50%， respectively. Despite such high removal efficiency， large amounts of microplastics were discharged into the final waters due to the large daily processing capacity. The purpose of this study is to provide theoretical guidance for the operation management of wastewater treatment plants to improve the removal rate of microplastics.

This study aims at the establishment of a universally applicable etching methodology to unveil the nanoscale crystalline structure of the matrix resin in fiber reinforced thermoplastic (FRTP) composites scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The crystalline structure hierarchically consists of crystalline texture, spherulite and lamella. The details of these structures are key parameters to understand the relationship with the mechanical properties of the material for the advancement.

Background And Aims: Traditional endoscopic full-thickness resection (EFTR) involves complete removal of the lesion followed by defect closure. The separated resection and closure technique results in mucosal eversion and misalignment of the muscularis propria layers, making reliable closure difficult. Here, we developed an innovative "cut-and-seal-as-you-go" technique, "Zipper-EFTR" and evaluated the feasibility and safety of the new technique.

Corrosive sulfur compounds and trace moisture were key factors causing the rapid deterioration of finished mineral oils. In power systems, insulating oil contaminated by such substances not only threatens the stable operation of power equipment but also transforms into hazardous waste due to performance degradation. This study innovatively developed a sulfur-modified TiO-loaded SiO nanocomposite (S-nTDSGS) adsorbent, which was comprehensively characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and specific surface area analysis.

Trivalent antimony (Sb(III)) is listed as a priority aquatic contaminant due to its high toxicity. The oxidation of Sb(III) to pentavalent antimony (Sb(V)) and recovery is a desirable process for treatment of Sb-containing wastewater. Given the challenges of low cost and green production, researches on constructing an oxidation route in the absence of homogeneous oxidant for Sb oxidation and recovery are urgent.
