Vanadium-Containing Chloroperoxidase-Catalyzed Versatile Valorization of Phenols and Phenolic Acids

The downstream product transformation of lignin depolymerization is of great interest in the production of high-value aromatic chemicals. However, this transformation is often impeded by chemical oxidation under harsh reaction conditions. In this study, we demonstrate that hypohalites generated in situ by the vanadium-containing...

Toward Improved Real-Time Rainfall Intensity Estimation Using Video Surveillance Cameras

Under global climate change, urban flooding occurs frequently, leading to huge economic losses and human casualties. Extreme rainfall is one of the direct and key causes of urban flooding, and accurate rainfall estimates at high spatiotemporal resolution are of great significance for real-time urban flood forecasting. Using existing rainfall...

Experimental and Theoretical Studies of the Site Occupancy and Luminescence of Ce³⁺in LiSr₄(BO₃)₃for Potential X-ray Detecting Applications

Ce3+-doped LiSr4(BO3)3 phosphors have been prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction method, and structural refinement of the host compound has been performed. The excitation and emission spectra in the vacuum ultraviolet-ultraviolet-visible range at cryogenic temperatures reveal that Ce3+ ions preferentially occupy eight...
