Carbon–cement supercapacitors as a scalable bulk energy storage solution by Chanut, Nicolas, Stefaniuk, Damian, Weaver, James C., Zhu, Yunguang, Shao-Horn, Yang, Masic, Admir, Ulm, Franz-Josef

“…Texture analysis reveals that the hydration reactions of cement in the presence of carbon generate a fractal-like electron-conducting carbon network that permeates the load-bearing cement-based matrix. The energy storage capacity of this space-filling carbon black network of the high specific surface area accessible to charge storage is shown to be an intensive quantity, whereas the high-rate capability of the carbon-cement electrodes exhibits self-similarity due to the hydration porosity available for charge transport. …”

In-situ alkaline enhanced two-stage anaerobic digestion system for waste cooking oil and sewage sludge co-digestion by Yan, Wangwang, Vadivelu, Vel, Maspolim, Yogananda, Zhou, Yan

“…The maximum methane yield of the ALK-2-CSTRs is 39.2% higher than that of a single stage CSTR system at the optimal feed mixture of 45:55 (WCO:SS [VS]). The thermophilic operation applied to the stage-1 of the ALK-2-CSTRs failed to improve the methane yield when the methanogenic performance was stable; while upon WCO overloaded, the elevated temperature mitigated the deterioration of methanogenesis by stimulating the bioconversion of the toxic LCFAs, especially the unsaturated oleic acid. …”

Green amorphous nanoplex as a new supersaturating drug delivery system by Cheow, Wean Sin, Hadinoto, Kunn

“…Under the optimal conditions, the three nanoplexes exhibit high drug loadings of 80–85% owing to the high drug complexation efficiency ( 90–96%), which is achieved by keeping the feed charge ratio of the drug to PE below unity (i.e., excess PE). …”

Response of invertebrate communities to intensive management of improved pasture ecosystems by Manning, P

“…Some estimates suggest that current levels of food production will need to double to feed this population. Increasing the intensity of food production on existing agricultural land will be a crucial element in meeting this goal, but practices associated with intensive management can cause biodiversity declines and erode the ecosystem functions that underpin production. …”

Multi-omics analysis and modelling of T cell immunity and interferon signalling pathways for engineered T cell therapy by Pavillet, CE

“…The work presented therein will feed into a novel computational framework to enable the modelling of patient-specific responses to T cell-based immunotherapy and synergistic combinations.…”
