Effects of Different Cooling Processes on the Structure and Properties of Aluminum/Steel Composite Plate by Yufei Zhu, Runwu Jiang, Chao Yu, Yuhua Wu, Hong Xiao

“…In this paper, the Al/steel composite plate was prepared using rolling, with 5083 aluminum plate as the cladding plate, Q235 steel plate as the substrate, and TA1 titanium (Ti) plate and DT4 pure iron (Fe) plate as the intermediate layers. The heterothermic billet was prepared through induction heating by the magnetic effects of the steel plate and the pure Fe plate, and then the Al/steel composite plate was obtained by rolling. …”

CHANGING ASPECTS OF BAMBARA GROUNDNUT EXPLOITATION: 1. LIMITATIONS AND ALLEYWAYS FOR FUTURE EXPANSION by Elias Mjaika Ndifon, Magaret Chiv, Solomon Hemba Chia

“…Bambara groundnut is very rich in mineral nutrients: potassium, calcium, iron, magnesium, and zinc. Efforts to increase its yield are hindered by cultural heritage, inadequate knowledge, adaptation to particular agroecological zones, lack of genetic improvement, inadequate processing, lack of functional value chains, gender stigmatization, poor land tenure systems, pests, and diseases, This review (1 of 3) was carried out to document these challenges and the efforts being made so far to overcome them.…”

Corrosion Monitoring of Flexible Metallic Substrates for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells by Trystan Watson, Gavin Reynolds, David Wragg, Geraint Williams, David Worsley

“…This result should be set in the context with the finding reported here that certain nitrogen containing heterocyclics used in the electrolyte to enhance performance also act as corrosion inhibitors with significant stabilization for metals such as iron. These new techniques will be important tools to help develop corrosion resistant metal surfaces and corrosion inhibiting electrolytes for use in industrial scale devices.…”

Leach-SX-EW copper revalorization from overburden of abandoned copper mine Cerovo, Eastern Serbia by Stevanović Z., Antonijević M., Jonović R., Avramović Lj., Marković R., Bugarin M., Trujić V.

“…In scope of leaching tests were examined influence of leaching solution pH values and iron (III) concentration on copper recovery. It was established that for 120 hours of leaching on pH=1.5 without oxidant agents, copper concentration in pregnant leach solutions enriched up to 1.08g/dm3 which was enough for copper extraction from solution with SX-EW treatment. …”

Analysis of ginseng rusty root symptoms transcriptome and its pathogenesis directed by reactive oxygen species theory by Pengcheng Yu, Xiaowen Song, Wei Zhang, Yao Yao, Junling Ren, Liyang Wang, Wenfei Liu, Zhaoping Meng, Xiangcai Meng

“…In this study, the phloem tissue of healthy Panax ginseng (AG), the nonred tissue of the phloem epidermis around the lesion (BG), and the red lesion site tissue of GRS (CG) were extracted for mRNA transcriptomic analysis; 35,958 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified and were associated with multiple stress resistance pathways, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and iron ion binding. Further study showed that the contents of O2•‐, H2O2, and malondialdehyde (MDA) were significantly increased in BG and CG tissues. …”

Biofortification of Spring Barley Grain with Microelements through Sulfur Fertilization by Bożena Barczak, Magdalena Jastrzębska, Marta K. Kostrzewska

“…It was demonstrated that, in the fertilization of spring barley, supplementation of NPK with sulphur can be regarded as an agronobmic method of biofortification of grain with micronutrients because it beneficially affects the content of manganese, iron, zinc, and copper in the grain. An increase in the content of these micronutrients was found in the grain of plants fertilized with sulphur in comparison to plants that were not fertilized with this nutrient in each of the growing seasons. …”

Pre-Roman copper industry had no polluting impact on the global environment by Omri Yagel, Aaron Greener, Willie Ondricek, Erez Ben-Yosef

“…Based on high-resolution pXRF geochemical surveys of two smelting camps from different periods, accompanied by test excavations, we demonstrate that (1) mapping elemental concentrations in soil is an effective tool for identifying and characterizing various activity areas in archaeological sites, such as metal production, livestock penning and domestic and industrial waste disposal; (2) in Timna, the intra-site organization of production and scale of metallurgical activities changed substantially between the Early Bronze Age and the Iron Age; (3) the heavy metal enrichment (Cu/Pb) of soil due to smelting is spatially discrete, concentrated only in areas directly associated with these activities; and (4) this enrichment aligns with the spatial distribution of metallurgical waste, suggesting that lead emission to the atmosphere was minimal and that the documented heavy metals are not bioavailable. …”
