TL;DR: In this article, the state of the art of portable hydrogen-generation materials is surveyed, and the ceramic oxide-modified Al-hydrogen technology and its potential are highlighted, showing that metal Al particle surfaces could be modified by fine ceramic oxide grains through a ceramic processing procedure and the modified Al powder could continuously react with pure water and generate hydrogen under ambient conditions.
Abstract: Unlike traditional batteries, small fuel cells have a high energy density and can work uninterruptedly, being better energy suppliers for portable devices. Such devices require an economically viable fuel. Recent findings showed that metal Al particle surfaces could be modified by fine ceramic oxide grains through a ceramic processing procedure, and the modified Al powder could continuously react with pure water and generate hydrogen under ambient conditions. The reaction of Al with water produces as much as 3.7–4.8 wt% hydrogen, and the reaction byproducts are chemically neutral. Metal Al is cheap and hydrogen generation from the reaction between surface-modified Al particles and water is a simple process. These features make this new process a cost-efficient way of generating hydrogen for small fuel cells in comparison with other portable hydrogen-generation materials and technologies. In this paper, the state of the art of portable hydrogen-generation materials is surveyed, and the ceramic oxide-modified Al–hydrogen technology and its potential are highlighted.

TL;DR: In this paper, the density functional theory (DFT) method was used to clarify the NO and NH3 adsorption abilities over the catalyst models of Fe2O3/TiO2{001} and Fe2 O3/NiO 2{101} for selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR).
Abstract: Anatase TiO2 nanosheets (TiO2-NS) and nanospindles (TiO2-NSP) have been successfully prepared with F– and glacial acetic acid as structure-directing agents, respectively. The Fe2O3/TiO2-NS and Fe2O3/TiO2-NSP nanocatalysts were prepared by a wet incipient impregnation method with a monolayer amount of Fe2O3. All the catalysts were employed for the selective catalytic reduction of NO with NH3 (NH3-SCR) in order to understand the morphology-dependent effects. It is interesting that the Fe2O3/TiO2-NS nanocatalyst exhibited better removal efficiency of NOx in the temperature range of 100–450 °C, which was attributed to more oxygen defects and active oxygen, acid sites, as well as adsorbed nitrate species based on Raman spectra, XPS, NH3-TPD, NO+O2-TPD, and in situ DRIFTS. The density functional theory (DFT) method was used to clarify the NO and NH3 adsorption abilities over the catalyst models of Fe2O3/TiO2{001} and Fe2O3/TiO2{101}. The results showed that the NH3 adsorption energy over the TiO2{001} (−2.00 eV...

TL;DR: Evidence for cigarette smoking as an independent risk factor for incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the general adult population is suggested, and future studies are required to investigate whether smoking cessation can decrease incident CKD in thegeneral adult population.
Abstract: Background Cigarette smoking has been established as a major risk factor for chronic kidney disease (CKD) development in people with diabetes. Conflicting evidence exists among representative community-based studies as to whether smoking is an independent risk factor for CKD. The aim of this meta-analysis was to assess the effects of tobacco smoking on the development of CKD in adult general populations. Methods A literature search was conducted using MEDLINE and Embase from their inception through 31 May 2016 for prospective cohort studies that reported relative risks of CKD with smoking status in the general population. Summary relative risks (SRRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using a random effects model. Results A total of 15 prospective cohort studies, including 65 064 incident CKD cases, were included. Compared with never-smokers, the SRRs of incident CKD were 1.27 (95% CI 1.19-1.35) for ever-smokers, 1.34 (95% CI 1.23-1.47) for current smokers and 1.15 (95% CI 1.08-1.23) for former smokers. The SRRs for end-stage renal disease development were 1.51 (95% CI 1.24-1.84) for ever-smokers, 1.44 (95% CI 1.00-2.09) for former smokers and 1.91 (95% CI 1.39-2.64) for current smokers. Considerable heterogeneity was observed among these studies. After combining an additional three prospective cohort studies, which involved 5747 incident proteinuria cases, a null smoking-proteinuria association in the general population was observed. Conclusions Our meta-analysis suggests evidence for cigarette smoking as an independent risk factor for incident CKD. Future studies are required to investigate whether smoking cessation can decrease incident CKD in the general adult population.
