Illumination factors can affect growth of microalgae and HCO3− fixation. In order to optimize microalgae growth in culture system and HCO3− fixation from wastewater, the effects of light source, light interval on the growth of microalgae, Chlorella sp. and Scenedesmus obliquus sp., were...

In this article, decane, methyl benzene, pyridine and acetic acid were selected as different polarity components in crude oil, and their adsorption behavior on water-wet silica surface was investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. Simulation results indicated that polar components could...

This paper discusses lanthanide doped luminescent materials which can modify the solar spectrum to reduce the spectral losses encountered by PV (photovoltaic) devices and enhance the conversion efficiency. High cost owing to low conversion efficiency is a limiting factor for contribution of PV...

Minto engine is a kind of liquid piston heat engine that operates on a small temperature gradient. But there is no power formula for it yet. And its thermal efficiency is low and formula sometimes is misused. In this paper, deriving the power formula and simplifying the thermal efficiency...

Kaolinite is one of the most naturally occurring industrial minerals, which has inherent advantages such as low cost, flame retardant, porous lamellar structure. In this paper, a novel FSPCM (form-stable phase change material) for thermal energy storage is prepared by absorbing LA (lauric acid)...

This paper proposed a novel long-distance combined transmission system, in which LNG (liquefied natural gas) is transported in the pipeline and electricity is transmitted through a high-temperature superconducting cable refrigerated by LNG. Through this system, electricity and LNG could be...
