Plastic particles affect N₂O release via altering core microbial metabolisms in constructed wetlands

Constructed wetlands (CWs) have been proven to effectively immobilize plastic particles. However, little is known about the differences in the impact of varying sized plastic particles on nitrous oxide (N₂O) release, as well as the intervention mechanisms in CWs. Here, we built a lab-scale wetland model and introduced plastic...

Hygrothermal effects on fatigue delamination behavior in composite laminates

Fatigue delamination growth (FDG) is an important failure in composite structures during their long-term operations. Hygrothermal aging can have significant effects on interlaminar resistance. It is therefore really necessary to explore FDG behavior in composite laminates with hygrothermal aging. Dynamic mechanical thermal analysis (DMTA),...

Continuous Fatty Acid Decarboxylation using an Immobilized Photodecarboxylase in a Membrane Reactor

The realm of photobiocatalytic alkane biofuel synthesis has burgeoned recently; however, the current dearth of well-established and scalable production methodologies in this domain remains conspicuous. In this investigation, we engineered a modified form of membrane-associated fatty acid photodecarboxylase sourced from Micractinium conductrix...

Multiple Strategies Differential Privacy on Sparse Tensor Factorization for Network Traffic Analysis in 5G

Due to high capacity and fast transmission speed, 5G plays a key role in modern electronic infrastructure. Meanwhile, sparse tensor factorization (STF) is a useful tool for dimension reduction to analyze high-order, high-dimension, and sparse tensor (HOHDST) data, which is transmitted on 5G Internet-of-things (IoT). Hence, HOHDST data relies...

Effect of ethanol concentration on methane hydrate decomposition: MD simulation insights

The controllability of mining is a key factor affecting the commercial application of methane hydrates, and the addition of chemical additives can significantly accelerate the mining process. However, the effect of additive concentration on hydrate decomposition is not yet well understood. In this study, we systematically investigate the...
