A Comparison Study of Chemical Compositions and Sources of PM1.0 and PM2.5 in Hanoi by Pham Duy Hien, Vuong Thu Bac, Nguyen Thi Hong Thinh, Ha Lan Anh, Duong Duc Thang, Nguyen The Nghia

“…Sulfate, ammonium, and black carbon (BC) composed the majority of the mass in both size fractions, and the PMF models clearly differentiated the contribution of long-range transport (LRT) aerosols, which accounted for more than two-thirds of the measured PM-bound sulfate and ammonium concentrations, from those of the six in situ sources, viz., resuspended road dust, primary vehicular emissions, coal fly ash, biomass burning emissions, construction dust, and sea salt. …”

Chromosome distribution of four LTR retrotransposons and 18 S rDNA in coffea eugenioides by Mariana Cansian Sattler, Jéssica Coutinho Silva, Stéfanie Cristina Oliveira, Wellington Ronildo Clarindo

“…The obstacles related to obtaining high-quality chromosomes from Coffea species have long been hampering the cytogenomics, which associates in silico analysis with the in situ mapping. Thus, we hope that the results presented here enlighten not only the composition, but also the distribution of mobile elements in the C. eugenioides genome, providing background for further cytogenomic investigations regarding Coffea repeatome.…”

Strongly coordinating mediator enables single-step resource recovery from heavy metal-organic complexes in wastewater by Wei Shi, Jiayi Li, Fei Gao, Lijun Meng, Xiao Su, Zhiwei Wang

“…This unique process spontaneously captures heavy metal ions at the -N-OH and -NH2 groups of the amidoxime from their complexes without external energy input (ΔG of amidoxime mediator with Cu(II): −6.59 eV), followed by direct in situ electro-reduction for metal recovery. The reduction of captured Cu(II) to Cu(0) regenerates the amidoxime’s active sites, enabling continuous capture of Cu(II). …”

Multi-factor controls on initial gas production pressure of coalbed methane wells in Changzhi-Anze block, Central-Southern of Qinshui Basin, China by Yang Zhao, Xiaodong Zhang, Shuo Zhang, Jiaosheng Yang, Xianzhong Li, Shuai Heng

“…The results indicate that IGPP varies from 1.09 MPa to 6.57 MPa, showing a distribution law with high in the middle and low in the west and east of the study area, which presents a similar distribution characteristic with burial depth, thickness, coal rank, gas content, original reservoir pressure, and in-situ stress. Further, through grey correlation analysis, it concludes that the correlation degrees of control factors affecting IGPP of coalbed methane wells in the descending order are decline rate of working fluid level, water yield before gas production, reservoir pressure, coal thickness, coal rank, minimum horizontal principal stress, burial depth, and gas content. …”

Divergent alkynylative difunctionalization of amide bonds through C–O deoxygenation versus C–N deamination by Feng Liu, Xueyuan Yan, Fangfang Cai, Wenjuan Hou, Jianyu Dong, Shuang-Feng Yin, Genping Huang, Tieqiao Chen, Michal Szostak, Yongbo Zhou

“…By altering the N-substitution or the acyl group, the tetrahedral intermediate species selectively undergoes C–O or C–N cleavage with a concomitant capture by an alkynyl nucleophile generated in situ. This process enables the selective introduction of two different functional groups into the amide molecular architecture, producing valuable propargyl amine and propargyl alcohol products. …”
