TL;DR: In this paper, cross-linked nanoporous polymers that have been copoly-merized with previously functionalized carbon nanotubes were used to remove organic contaminants from water.
Abstract: Some organic compounds are major water pol- lutants. They can be toxic or carcinogenic even at low con- centrations. Current technologies, however, fail to remove these contaminants to parts per billion (ppb) levels. Here we report on the removal of organic pollutants from water using cross-linked nanoporous polymers that have been copoly- merized with previously functionalized carbon nanotubes. These novel polymers can remove model organic species such as p-nitrophenol by as much as 99% from a 10 mg/L spiked water sample compared to granular activated carbon and native cyclodextrin polymer that removed only 47 and 58%, respectively. These polymers have also demonstrated the ability to remove trichloroethylene (10 mg/L spiked sam- ple) to non-detectable levels (detection limit <0.01 ppb) compared to 55 and 70% for activated carbon and native cyclodextrin polymers, respectively.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported new uranium-lead (U-Pb) radiometric ages obtained from sheets of calcium carbonate flowstone interbedded between clastic cave sediments at the site of Swartkrans, providing bracketing ages for the fossiliferous deposits.

TL;DR: In this paper, carbon isotope values of carbonate and organic matter in carbonates and shales of the Silverton Formation, South Africa and in the correlative Sengoma Argillite Formation, near the border in Botswana were determined.

TL;DR: The adsorption kinetics of the composite materials fitted well with the pseudo second-order kinetic model while the adsorptive data could be well described by the Langmuir isotherm model.
