TL;DR: In this article, the surface reactivity of magnetite was evaluated by conducting the kinetic study of both H2O2 decomposition and PCP oxidation experiments, and the apparent degradation rate was dominated by the intrinsic chemical reactions on the oxide surface rather than the rate of mass transfer.
Abstract: The oxidation of pentachlorophenol (PCP) on the surface of magnetite used as heterogeneous catalyst has been investigated under various experimental conditions (initial substrate concentration, H2O2 dose, solid loading and temperature) at neutral pH and correlated with the adsorption behavior. The surface reactivity of magnetite was evaluated by conducting the kinetic study of both H2O2 decomposition and PCP oxidation experiments. The occurrence of the optimum values of H2O2 and magnetite concentrations for the effective degradation of PCP could be explained by the scavenging reactions with H2O2 or iron oxide surface. The surface interactions with PCP in the absence and the presence of oxidant can be well described by Langmuir and Langmuir–Hinshelwood models, respectively. All batch experiments indicate that Fenton-like oxidation of PCP was controlled by surface mechanism reaction and the species compete with each other for adsorption on a fixed number of surface active sites. The apparent degradation rate was dominated by the rate of intrinsic chemical reactions on the oxide surface rather than the rate of mass transfer. Raman analysis suggested that the sorbed PCP was removed form magnetite surface at the first stage of oxidation reaction. The mineralization determined by TOC abatement was completed after 7 d, while total dechlorination was achieved at 4 d treatment time. The first reaction of PCP oxidation should be the dechlorination since 90% of chloride was formed at the first 30 h corresponding to the total disappearance of parent compound. All X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Mossbauer spectroscopy and chemical analyses showed that the magnetite catalyst exhibited low iron leaching, good structural stability and no loss of performance in second reaction cycle.

TL;DR: A novel method of manufacturing shape-controlled calcium alginate gel microparticles in a microfluidic device and synthesizing hydrogelmicroparticles with size and shape control is described.
Abstract: In this paper we describe a novel method of manufacturing shape-controlled calcium alginate gel microparticles in a microfluidic device. Both manufacturing shape-controlled microparticles and synthesizing hydrogel microparticles could be performed simultaneously in the microfluidic device. The novel microfluidic device comprised of two individual flow-focusing channels and a synthesizing channel was successfully applied as a continuous microfluidic reactor to synthesize gel microparticles with size and shape control. By passive control based on the microchannel geometric confinement and liquid-phase flow rates, we succeeded in producing monodisperse sodium alginate microparticles with diverse shapes (such as plugs, disks, microspheres, rods, and threads) in the flow-focusing channels of the microfluidic device. The shape and size of the sodium alginate microparticles could be tuned by adjusting the flow rates of the various streams. Further stages of the chemical reaction could be initiated by mixing sodi...

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors dealt with hydrological research in regard to the water resources crisis in the vulnerable areas found in the northern part of China, which includes three main river basins, namely the basins of the Yellow (Huang) River, the Hai River and the Huai River.
Abstract: This paper deals with hydrological research in regard to the water resources crisis in the vulnerable areas found in the northern part of China. This area includes three main river basins, namely the basins of the Yellow (Huang) River, the Hai River and the Huai River. Several water problems are becoming very severe. Among them, two are the most critical: the Yellow River has been drained dry in the main course of its lower reaches and along its major tributaries, and the groundwater table has rapidly declined in the floodplains of the three rivers' downstream areas. To counter the problems, particularly the critical issues mentioned above, hydrological research, which serves as the basis of water development and management, has been carried out in the last two decades. This paper addresses three basic scientific problems in North China, namely: (a) water consumption and the capacity for saving water; (b) the changes in hydrological processes and water resources caused by natural change and human activities; and (c) the ability to supply water resources and water safety in terms of both quantity and quality within a changing environment. However, opportunities and challenges for ameliorating the problems exist, and new ideas and methodology to solve the problems have been proposed, such as the interface process study on the interactions in the soil-root interface, the plant-atmosphere interface, the soil-atmosphere interface, and the interface of soil water and groundwater. In order to manage water resources in a sustainable manner, the study of water resources' renewal ability as affected by natural change and human activity is addressed from the viewpoint of both water quantity and quality, and their integration. To reduce the vulnerability of water resources in regional water management, a paradigm of sustainable water resources utilization is also proposed, using water-heat balance, water-salt balance, water-sediment balance, and water supply-demand balance. This approach may help reveal the basic problems and point to possible approaches to solving the water problems in North China in the 21st century. Copyright (C) 2004 John Wiley Sons

TL;DR: A novel dual-pH sensitive charge-reversal strategy that facilitates tumor targeting and nuclear delivery simultaneously by simply modifying the lysine amino residues of polylysine and Tat into two different pH-sensitive β-carboxylic amides.
Abstract: A novel dual-pH sensitive charge-reversal strategy is designed to deliver antitumor drugs targeting to tumor cells and to further promote the nuclei internalization by a stepwise response to the mildly acidic extracellular pH (≈6.5) of a tumor and endo/lysosome pH (≈5.0). Poly(L-lysine)-block-poly(L-leucine) diblock copolymer is synthesized and the lysine amino residues are amidated by 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride to form β-carboxylic amide, making the polypeptides self-assemble into negatively charged micelles. The amide can be hydrolyzed when exposed to the mildly acidic tumor extracellular environment, which makes the micelles switch to positively charged and they are then readily internalized by tumor cells. A nuclear targeting Tat peptide is further conjugated to the polypeptide via a click reaction. The Tat is amidated by succinyl chloride to mask its positive charge and cell-penetrating function and thus to inhibit nonspecific cellular uptake. After the nanoparticles are internalized into the more acidic intracellular endo/lysosomes, the Tat succinyl amide is hydrolyzed to reactivate the Tat nuclear targeting function, promoting nanoparticle delivery into cell nuclei. This polypeptide nanocarrier facilitates tumor targeting and nuclear delivery simultaneously by simply modifying the lysine amino residues of polylysine and Tat into two different pH-sensitive β-carboxylic amides.
