This study aimed to identify human specific metabolites of selected known or suspected endocrine disruptors (EDCs), mainly UV filters, used in personal care and consumer products whose metabolism has hardly been explored and...
In this paper, a new method for mapping radial turbines will be demonstrated and shown to be superior to the standard approach typical to gas-stand laboratories. This is especially true in situations where the turbine is...
Zinc oxide (ZnO) displays superior properties as a photocatalyst, compared to the more widely used TiO2. However, widespread application of ZnO is hampered by its high photo-corrosion in aqueous environments under...
In the multifunctional system consisting of point absorber wave energy converters and a pontoon breakwater, the breakwater plays an essential role in attenuating waves on the lee side and amplifying waves for a better energy...

Despite the widespread occurrence of furan moieties in synthetic and natural compounds, their fate in aqueous ozonation has not been investigated in detail. Reaction rate constants of seven commonly used furans with ozone...
Many countries have set ambitious targets to achieve zero-carbon electricity systems by the Mid-21st Century. In their pathways, the renewable mix and the energy storage mix have been considered as two important facets....
Human biomonitoring, i.e. the determination of chemicals and/or their metabolites in human specimens, is the most common and potent tool for assessing human exposure to pesticides, but it suffers from limitations such as high...
The concentration of antiretroviral drugs in wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) effluents and surface waters of many countries has increased significantly due to their widespread use for HIV treatment. In this study, the...
Due to their widespread application in consumer products, elemental titanium (e.g., titanium dioxide, TiO2) and silver (Ag), also in nanoparticulate form, are increasingly released from households and industrial...
The development and validation of detailed simulation models of in-cylinder combustion, emission formation mechanisms and reaction kinetics in the exhaust system are of crucial importance for the design of future low-emission...
Zinc oxide (ZnO) displays superior properties as a photocatalyst, compared to the more widely used TiO2. However, widespread application of ZnO is hampered by its high photo-corrosion in aqueous environments under...
The presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater was first reported in March 2020. Over the subsequent months, the potential for wastewater surveillance to contribute to COVID-19 mitigation programmes has been the focus of...
Capture and subsurface storage of CO2 is widely viewed as being a necessary component of any strategy to minimise and control the continued increase in average global temperatures. Existing oil and gas reservoirs...
Due to the limited efficiency of conventional biological treatment, innovative solutions are being explored to improve the removal of trace organic chemicals in wastewater. Controlling biomass exposure to growth substrate...
Metal-modified carbon materials have been widely used for fluoride removal, but the traditional impregnation by soaking method suffers from low loading of metals and substantial use of chemicals. This study proposed a new...
This study aimed to develop empirically grounded recommendations and a coherent model of psychological care derived from the experiences and psychological care needs of COVID-19 frontline doctors, using semi-structured...
The adjustable capability of distributed energy systems responding to the incentives of the upper energy supply system has been significantly improved by energy storage and renewable energy technologies. Most existing...
The presence of SARS-CoV-2 RNA in wastewater was first reported in March 2020. Over the subsequent months, the potential for wastewater surveillance to contribute to COVID-19 mitigation programmes has been the focus of...
Centrifugal compressors are used in many applications, including automotive turbochargers. Surge is an instability that occurs at low mass flow rates that is often damaging. Even mild surge produces noise characteristics that...
Membrane-based water reuse through reverse osmosis (RO) and nanofiltration (NF) faces a critical challenge from organic micropollutants (OMPs). Conventional polyamide RO and NF membranes often lack adequate selectivity to...
