A Review of Additives on (Co-)Stabilization of Phosphorus and Heavy Metals during Thermal Processing of Sewage Sludge by LI Haofei, QIN Yuhong, DU Yujia, LI Wanyao

“…[Methods] The migration and transformation laws of phosphorus and heavy metals in thermal processes such as incineration, pyrolysis, gasification, and hydrothermal carbonization are summarized, and the impact mechanisms of calcium-, magnesium-, and chloride-based additives on the stabilization of phosphorus and heavy metals are generalized. It is noted that the addition of CaO promotes the conversion of non-apatite inorganic phosphorus to apatite inorganic phosphorus, improves the availability of phosphorus, and achieves co-stabilization of heavy metals. …”

Building Arabic Speech Recognition System Using HuBERT Model and Studying the Sources of Errors [Arabic] by Rima Sbih, Assef Jafar, Ali Kazem

“…Our study on different data sets revealed that the HuBERT-based system has a significant ability to generalize to different spoken dialects. Additionally, we conducted a statistical analysis on the errors specific to the Arabic language that arise from the HuBERT-based system, which highlighted the necessity of incorporating an error correction language model to enhance system accuracy. …”

Flow invariance for perturbed nonlinear evolution equations by Dieter Bothe

“…In this paper we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for weak positive invariance (also called viability) of closed sets K⊂X for the evolution system u′+Au∍f(t,u)  on  J=[0,a]. More generally, we provide conditions under which this evolution system has mild solutions satisfying time-dependent constraints u(t)∈K(t) on J. …”
