Activated carbon is employed for the adsorption of organic micropollutants (OMPs) from water, typically present in concentrations ranging from ng L<sup>−1</sup> to μg L<sup>−1</sup>. However, the efficacy of OMP removal is considerably deteriorated due to competitive adsorption from background dissolved organic matter (DOM), present at...

The accumulation of phosphorus in activated sludge in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) provides potential for phosphorus recovery from sewage. This study delves into the potential for releasing phosphorus from waste activated sludge through two distinct treatment methods—thermal hydrolysis and pH adjustment. The investigation was conducted...

Alkali-activated materials (AAMs) are one of green cementitious materials in building materials industry and beneficial to the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality. Compared with ordinary Portland cement (PC) based materials, however, the raw material composition, reaction products and pore solution composition of AAMs are complex...

In many practical applications, machine learning models are embedded into a pipeline involving a human actor that decides whether to trust the machine prediction or take a default route (e.g., classify the example herself). Selective classifiers have the option to abstain from making a prediction on an example they do not feel confident about...

Dwarf galaxies are characterized by a very low luminosity and low mass. Because of significant accretion and ejection activity of massive black holes, some dwarf galaxies also host low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGNs). In a few dwarf AGNs, very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations have found faint non-thermal radio...

The influences of liquid-binder ratio and mixing sequence on the performance of superabsorbent polymer (SAP)-containing alkali-activated slag (AAS) mortar are investigated in this study. It is found that the SAP absorbs much less liquid in upper supernatant of AAS than in water. Mixing SAP with liquid first induces a larger absorption...

In this study, a modified alkali activated slag system is designed by introducing additional calcium and aluminum containing phases in the binder, aiming at promote the formation of Friedel's salt (Fs) within the reaction products and therefore achieve a better chloride binding capacity. The effect of calcium and alumina contents on phase...

Radar is now widely used in human activity classification because of its contactless sensing capabilities, robustness to light conditions and privacy preservation compared to plain optical images. It has great value in elderly care, monitoring accidental falls and abnormal behaviours. Monostatic radar suffers from degradation in performance...

Epoxy molding compound (EMC) is widely used for encapsulating automotive electronics. Among all of the components of an electronic package, EMC is most exposed to the atmosphere, and thus undergoes aging. During high-temperature operation, EMC is oxidized, which alters its mechanical properties, and thus can affect the reliability of electronic...

Human activities classification in assisted living is one of the emerging applications of radar. The conventional analysis considers micro-Doppler signatures as the chosen input for feature extraction or deep learning classification algorithms, or, less frequently, other radar data formats such as the range-time, the range-Doppler, or the...

Though much effort has been spent on designing new active learning algorithms, little attention has been paid to the initialization problem of active learning, i.e., how to find a set of labeled samples which contains at least one instance per category. This work identifies the initialization of active learning as a separate and novel...

Internal curing by superabsorbent polymer (SAP) has been applied in alkali-activated slag (AAS) systems by a few previous studies with the purpose to mitigate the autogenous shrinkage. However, the effects of SAP on other properties of AAS have been rarely studied. In this paper, the workability, strength, permeability, and frost resistance...

NGC 4395 is a dwarf galaxy at a distance of about 4.3 Mpc (scale: ∼0.021 pc mas-1). It hosts an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) with a mass between ∼104 and ∼105 solar masses. The early radio observations of NGC 4395 with the very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) network, High Sensitivity Array (HSA), at 1.4 GHz in 2005 showed that its...

It was widely acknowledged that dissolved organic matter (DOM) in natural water has ubiquitous competitiveness against organic micropollutants (OMPs) during adsorption onto activated carbon. However, some (model) low molecular weight organics have been reported to adsorb onto activated carbon, but were not competitive against co-adsorbates....

This study aims to characterize the whole reaction process of (i) emulsion explosive matrix and sulfide ores, and (ii) ammonium nitrate and pyrite by the thermodynamics analysis method. A series of experiments were carried out at atmospheric pressure from 25 °C to 350 °C at four heating rates (3, 5, 10, and 15 K/min) and the Coats–Redfern method...

The HIsarna process is one of the emerging low-CO<sub>2</sub> ironmaking processes that could help the steel industry in achieving their carbon footprint goals. HIsarna hot metal contains 3–4 times more sulfur than hot metal from blast furnaces (BFs). Therefore, a literature study, a thermodynamic analysis, and plant data analysis from Tata...

Low molecular weight (LMW) dissolved organic matter (DOM) is the predominant competitor for adsorption sites against organic micropollutants (OMPs) in activated carbon adsorption. However, top-down approaches using highly complex mixtures of real water DOM do not allow to concisely examine the impacts of specific LMW DOM molecular properties...

Training data creation is increasingly a key bottleneck for developing machine learning, especially for deep learning systems. Active learning provides a cost-effective means for creating training data by selecting the most informative instances for labeling. Labels in real applications are often collected from crowdsourcing, which engages...

Urban gas pipelines usually have high structural vulnerability due to long service time. The locations across urban areas with high population density make the gas pipelines easily exposed to external activities. Recently, urban pipelines may also have been the target of terrorist attacks. Nevertheless, the intentional damage, i.e. terrorist...
