Removal of ammonia from rubber wastewater using rubber-sludge-based biochar to enhance biogas production by NurulEzza Fazlina, Abu, Noor Yahida, Yahya, Fatin Zafirah, Mansur, Nurmunira, Muhammad

“…The highest ammonia removal was 7.5 mg/l at an initial adsorbent loading dosage of 1.5 g of RSB for 30 min of mixing. Further, during the AD process, the highest biogas yield of 19.061 ml/g was achieved after 28 days at pH 8. …”

Development of an educational method to rethink and learn oncological brain surgery in an “a la carte” connectome-based perspective by Valdes, Pablo A., Ng, Sam, Bernstock, Joshua D., Duffau, Hugues

“…Conclusions Taking no more than 3–5 min per patient and irrespective of their resource settings, we believe that this method will enable junior surgeons to develop an intuition, and a robust 3-dimensional imagery of WMT by regularly applying it to their cases both before and after surgery to develop an “a la carte” connectome-based perspective to glioma surgery.…”

Electrostatic microfiltration (EM) enriches and recovers viable microorganisms at low-abundance in large-volume samples and enhances downstream detection by Liu, Yaoping, Raymond, Joshua J, Wu, Xiaolin, Chua, Patrina Wei Lin, Ling, Sharon Yan Han, Chan, Chia Ching, Chan, Cheryl, Loh, Joanne Xin Yi, Song, Melody Xing Yen, Ong, Matilda Yu Yan, Ho, Peiying, Mcbee, Megan E, Springs, Stacy L, Yu, Hanry, Han, Jongyoon

“…This study develops an efficient electrostatic microfiltration (EM)-based sample preparation technique capable of processing ultra-large-volume (≥500 mL) samples at high throughput (≥10 mL min−1). This approach achieves a significant enrichment (>8000×) of extremely-low-abundance pathogens (down to level of 0.02 CFU mL−1, i.e., 10 CFU in 500 mL). …”

Cooperation and Fairness in Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning by Aloor, Jasmine, Nayak, Siddharth Nagar, Dolan, Sydney, Balakrishnan, Hamsa

“…We find that by training agents using min-max fair distance goal assignments along with a reward term that incentivizes fairness as they move towards their goals, the agents (1) learn a fair assignment of goals and (2) achieve almost perfect goal coverage in navigation scenarios using only local observations. …”

Vertical distribution of heavy metals in seawater column during IBA construction in land reclamation – re-exploration of a large-scale field trial experiment by Yin, Ke, Chan, Wei-Ping, Dou, Xiaomin, Lisak, Grzegorz, Chang, Victor Wei-Chung

“…As the current study took account of major field factors during land reclamation, including seawater depth (m), IBA loading (ton), IBA dropping method, particle dispersive area (m2), and settling time (min), these findings are valuable for the risk assessment of IBA utilization in land reclamation.…”
