Uranium extraction from seawater has attracted increasing attentions for nuclear raw material to support the sustainable development of nuclear power plants. However, it is still a grand challenge to overcome the high salinity background and ultra-low uranyl concentration. Herein, we...

Generation of reactive radicals via photocatalytic peroxymonosulfate (PMS) is restricted by the sluggish kinetics of PMS decompositon and lack of electron transfer channel. Herein, we firstly prepared rare earth oxide functionalized carbon nitride (5-ScO-CN) by simple in-situ one-step...

Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) production and consumption occur concomitantly in the soil and their accurate quantification as the gas diffuses in situ under high background concentration of atmospheric dinitrogen remains largely elusive. This study designed an analytical and reliable approach for...

The sulfur element in the coal tar pitch(CTP) is a key factor for the quality of needle coke or other carbon material. Using the potassium permanganate(KMnO4) as the oxidant and ferric chloride(FeCl3) as the catalyst, the single factor method was used to investigate the influence of different...

Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is the core process of metal-air battery. Functional carbon-based materials are promising electrocatalysts for ORR. In this work, the molecular configuration transformation between pyranose (glucose) and furanose (fructose) is selected as an entry point to...

The energy consumption of two-stage system of biomass pyrolysis recovery low temperature heat and bio-oil reforming recovery high temperature heat from granulated BF (blast furnace) slag was investigated. The results indicated that the two-stage system recovery waste heat from BF slag required...

The construction industry consumes a significant amount of resources. It is an urgent need to promote green building (GB) practices . Aimed at solving the problem of energy-saving, propaganda and government subsidy strategies in the green building supply chain (GBSC), a differential game model...

A 7-year multisite field experiment was performed to assess the relative importance of climate, soil, and microbial properties in crop production in a wheat cropping system under contrasting fertilization management (i.e., continuous organic vs. chemical fertilization). The results showed that...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to empirically analyze the transmission mechanism between benchmark interest rate of financial market, money market interest rate and capital market yields in order to reveal the dynamic evolution characters and core influential structure between...

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyze whether, and how, foreign strategic investor entry to China conveys management expertise to domestic banks. Some observers are concerned that foreign investors will be reluctant to transfer their expertise to local partners, and few skills will...
