Regulatory Paradigm and Challenge for Blockchain Integration of Decentralized Systems: Example—Renewable Energy Grids
(MDPI, 2023)
Nowadays, fossil fuels are used in a clearly unsustainable way that can bring potentially catastrophic consequences. Electricity is currently delivered to end users by generation and energy transmission companies. Previous ...
Microwave Assisted Esterification of Aryl/Alkyl Acids Catalyzed by N-Fluorobenzenesulfonimide
(MDPI, 2022)
The susceptibility of the carbonyl group towards nucleophilic attack affords the construction of various organic compounds. Thus, investigations of carbonyl activation applying greener
methodologies are highly important. ...
Obtaining Polysaccharide-Based Fabrics with Improved Moisture Sorption and Dye Adsorption Properties
(MDPI, 2023)
Raw jute fabric was treated with 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0% chitosan solution to improve its sorption
properties (evaluated through the moisture sorption and adsorption of textile dye Reactive Orange 16 (RO 16)), which are essential ...
Transformation of Iron (III) Nitrate from an Aerosol by Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis and Hydrogen Reduction
(MDPI, 2023)
Due to their unique properties, iron nanoparticles find diverse applications across various
fields, including catalysis, electronics, wastewater treatment, and energy storage. Nano-iron particles
are mostly sub-micrometer ...
Effects of Multiple Defects on Welded Joint Behaviour under the Uniaxial Tensile Loading: Fem and Experimental Approach
(MDPI, 2023)
The research represents the ongoing investigation of the welded joints behavior made of low-carbon low-alloyed steel in the presence of different multiple defects. Following the initial experimental and numerical analyses ...
Spatial distribution and source apportionment of DTPA-extractable metals in soils surrounding the largest Serbian steel production plant
(Elsevier Ltd, 2023)
Despite presenting a practical approach for the characterization of the environmental risk of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) derived from steel production facilities, the analysis of the spatial distribution of bioavailable ...
Adsorption of Metformin on Activated Carbon Produced from the Water Hyacinth Biowaste Using H3PO4 as a Chemical Activator
(MDPI, 2022)
Water hyacinth biomass was used for the synthesis of activated carbons in the process of chemical activation with H3PO4, followed by controlled carbonization. The study investigates the effect of various impregnation weight ...
Indium Recovery from Jarosite Pb–Ag Tailings Waste (Part 1)
(MDPI, 2023)
The processing of zinc ore using hydrometallurgical methods leads to the formation and accumulation of a by-product called jarosite, which contains concentrated precious metals. In this study, we propose the recovery of ...
Easy, Flexible and Standardizable Anti-Nascent Biofilm Activity Assay to Assess Implant Materials
(MDPI, 2023)
Medical implants have improved the quality of life of many patients. However, surgical intervention may eventually lead to implant microbial contamination. The aims of this research were to develop an easy, robust, ...
KIT-5-Assisted Synthesis of Mesoporous SnO2 for High-Performance Humidity Sensors with a Swift Response/Recovery Speed
(MDPI, 2023)
Developing highly efficient semiconductor metal oxide (SMOX) sensors capable of accurate and fast responses to environmental humidity is still a challenging task. In addition to a not so pronounced sensitivity to relative ...
