Impacts of Comorbidity and Mental Shock on Organic Micropollutants in Surface Water During and After the First Wave of COVID-19 Pandemic in Wuhan (2019–2021), China

The first pandemic wave of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) induced a considerable increase in several antivirals and antibiotics in surface water. The common symptoms of COVID-19 are viral and bacterial infections, while comorbidities (e.g., hypertension and diabetes) and mental shock (e.g., insomnia and anxiety) are nonnegligible....

Characterizing the Effects of Al(OH)3 and Mg(OH)2 on Reaction Products and Drying Shrinkage Characteristics of Alkali-activated Slag

This study is undertaken to explore the relationship between the reaction products and the drying shrinkage of alkali-activated slag (AAS) with the varying hydroxide dosage. AAS pastes were firstly produced with either Al(OH)3 or Mg(OH)2 to investigate the effects of hydroxide on the composition of reaction products and the drying shrinkage of...

In operando-formed interface between silver and perovskite oxide for efficient electroreduction of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide

Electrochemical carbon dioxide (CO₂) reduction (ECR) is a promising technology to produce valuable fuels and feedstocks from CO₂. Despite large efforts to develop ECR catalysts, the investigation of the catalytic performance and electrochemical behavior of complex metal oxides, especially perovskite oxides, is rarely...
