The increasing problem of underwater trash and its detrimental impact on marine ecosystems necessitates effective detection and mitigation strategies. This work presents an approach for underwater trash detection by integrating the YOLOv7 deep learning model with a Flask web application. The...

In recent years, Due to the depletion of petroleum reserves and rising environmental concerns, alternative fuels have attracted a lot of attention. This study investigates the combustion, emissions, and performance properties of diesel engines running on biodiesel-diesel blends. Recent developments...

Microplastics (MPs) can affect the phosphorus (P) cycle in soil by changing soil properties and the function of microbial communities, but their impact on soil P availability remains unclear. To explore the effects of different types of MPs on the mobilization of soil inorganic P by exomycorrhizal...

In contemporary industrialization, the prevalent occurrence of energy crises and emissions poses significant challenges, necessitating the exploration of alternative fuel sources and the implementation of measures to minimize hazardous emissions. These efforts are crucial for attaining the...

The global demand for plastic has risen, driven by plastic-based goods, exerting strain on the existing waste treatment infrastructure. Plastics typically consist of synthetic and semi-synthetic materials, mainly composed of polymers. Plastics include lightweight, cost-effective, easily...

Energy is essential but associated with global greenhouse emissions. Therefore, clean and renewable energy is important for future development. To meet this demand, kapok oil methyl ester (KOME) was made from the kapok raw oil through the transesterification method. KOME was then combined with...

Cryptomelane type manganese oxide K-OMS-2 and Ni-Ce-OMS-2 co-doping materials were synthesized by one-step preparation with refluxing system. The crystalline structure, and morphology were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis and SEM images. Ni (II) and Ce (III) were incorporated into...

The pollution and toxicological effects of microplastics in soil have gradually attracted widespread attention, but studies on the ecological effects of microplastics on soil microorganisms and their mechanisms are still very scarce. To explore the physiological response of ectomycorrhizal fungi...

This review provides a general overview of the application of chemical oxidation to hydrophobic contaminants in the form of non-aqueous phase liquids (NAPLs). Three types of chemical oxidation processes, conventional activated persulfate, permanganate, and ozonation, along with three advanced...
