Article Abstract
Internal floating roof tanks are used to store volatile, flammable, and explosive liquids, making the study of oil vapor diffusion concentration in the gas space of the internal floating roof tank critical for safety management. This study developed a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model using CFD, based on the Realizable k-ε turbulence model to evaluate the effects of varying liquid levels. (low, medium, high) of the floating roof and external wind speeds on the oil vapor volume fraction. The results indicate that oil vapor volume fraction decreases as the roof rises, indicating that the expansion of the gas space leads to a more dispersed distribution of oil vapor. Additionally, the effect of external wind speed on the evaporation process is minimal and does not significantly influence the diffusion capacity of volatile oil vapor. This study evaluates the safety of vapor concentration relative to the explosion limits of gasoline and n-heptane, providing fundamental guidance for the safe management of storage tanks.

The legalization of cannabis in several states across the United States has increased the need to better understand its effects on the body, brain, and behavior, particularly in different populations. Previous rodent studies have revealed age and sex differences in response to injected Δ-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). However, the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of THC administered through more translationally relevant routes of administration are less well known.

Air pollution is a critical threat to human health and the quality of life in large cities. In this work, we electrically characterized indoor air quality in Dhaka City with a microcontroller-based advanced sensing system in the presence of 60 air purifiers. We conducted LabVIEW-controlled, fully automated, and remotely operated experiments to precisely monitor, store, and analyze the air-purifying effects in the concentrations of air quality index (AQI) parametersPM2.

The rapid increase of electronic waste, particularly battery waste, presents significant environmental challenges such as pollutant emissions and resource depletion, emphasizing the need for effective valorization and reuse strategies. This study introduces a novel approach for repurposing end-of-life lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries as catalysts in the pyrolysis of walnut shells (WS). Characterization analyses revealed that LFP provides both Lewis and Brønsted acid sites, which alter the thermal decomposition pathway of WS.

Fresh walnuts are prone to moisture loss and spoilage after harvest, leading to reduced appearance and sensory quality. In this study, a multifunctional chitosan (CS)-based film was fabricated by incorporating a bacterial cellulose/oregano essential oil (BC/OEO) Pickering emulsion, with hydrogen bonding promoting cohesive matrix integration. The film's physicochemical properties, along with its antimicrobial and antioxidant activities, were systematically evaluated.

Smart packaging is revolutionizing the food industry by extending shelf life and enhancing quality, thus ensuring food safety and sustainability. This study presents innovative multilayer flexible packaging films to tackle the environmental challenges of single-use plastics and nonrecyclable metalized multilayer films. The fabricated films comprise three layers made up of poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(vinyl alcohol)/natural rubber latex, and PLA/Sepiolite clay from inner to outer, respectively, where the active middle layer provides oxygen-scavenging activity.
