Gravity erosion is a dominant geomorphic process on the steep loess slopes. Here, we conducted rainfall simulation experiments to monitor occurrence and behavior of the mass failure on steep loess slopes. The results show that the quantity of soil loss caused by avalanche and landslide was much...

In the present study, ten different types of dewatered sewage sludges were treated in supercritical water in a high-pressure autoclave under a given condition (at 400 °C, 60 min and 23 MPa). The feasibility of direct gasification and the effect of sludge properties on the gasification of...

Hydrogen gas has been successfully produced from sewage sludge by supercritical water gasification. Therefore, whether toxic compounds are synthesized in the supercritical water gasification of sewage sludge should be clarified because of the complex pollutants in sludge. In the current study,...

High quality Co-doped ZnO films with good reproducibility have been prepared under different oxygen partial pressure by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering. These films were characterized using numerous characterization techniques including X-ray diffraction, electrical transport, and...

At present, a lack of consensus on the temperature dependence for charge-carrier mobilities in disordered organic semiconductors hampers progress toward the charge transport model. Many mobility studies on organic semiconductor devices show a universal Arrhenius temperature dependence ln(μ) ∝...
