A novel amino-functionalized hydrothermal biochar modified with nitric acid and nicotinamide (NMSH) was prepared and applied to remove heavy metal in different systems. The study of batch adsorption found that NMSH had different adsorption behaviors for Cr(VI) and Sb(V), and different concentrations of heavy metal ions exhibited different coadsorption behaviors in mixed system. NMSH had great anti-interference ability to coexisting inorganic ion and humic substance. The maximum adsorption capacity of NMSH was 132.74 mg/g for Cr(VI), and 241.92 mg/g for Sb(V). Moreover, different interfering ions and matter had different effects on adsorption. The mechanism study found that the adsorption mechanism of NMSH involved multiple interactions, and the mechanisms were different. Some O-containing functional groups of NMSH could reduce Cr(VI) to Cr(III), but not Sb(V). NMSH had great removal efficiency and reusability performance, which suggested that NMSH had prospects for practical wastewater treatment. A novel two-stage fermentation strategy was applied to produce xylitol and ethanol from the whole acid-pretreated corn cob slurry. The acid-pretreated corn cob was used without filtration and detoxification by the two-stage fermentation with the robust Kluyveromyces marxianus CICC 1727-5. In the first stage, xylose in the slurry after dilute acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass was used to produce xylitol under micro-aeration conditions. In the second stage, simultaneous saccharification fermentation was carried out, and the ethanol was produced from glucose releasing from the solid. Important parameters, such as aeration rate, cellulase loading during xylose utilization and SSF fermentation were studied for best performance. The two-stage fermentation strategy removed the inhibition of glucose on xylose, and little xylose was left in the fermentation broth. Under the optimized condition, the maximum ethanol and xylitol concentration were 52 g/L and 24.2 g/L corresponding to the yield of 0.41 g/g and 0.82 g/g, respectively. This study reports for the first time an operation of an outdoor algae assisted Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). The MFC (10 L) comprised of low-cost materials like rock phosphate blended clayware & low-density polyethylene bags as anodic & cathodic chamber respectively. Algae biomass after lipid extraction at 2 g/l served as electron donor at the anode. Chlorella vulgaris at cathode provided oxygen as electron acceptor and served as lipid source. The MFCs performed well in all aspects namely energy recovery, algae productivity, and cost of operation. The 5% RP-MFCs gave 0.307 kg/m3d algal productivity, 0.09 kg/m3d lipid productivity, and 11.5318 kWh/m3 of net energy recovery (NER). Rock phosphate served as a slow and constant source of phosphorus supporting algae growth. Proteobacteria (45.14%) were the dominant phyla while Alicyliphilus (5.46%) and Dechloromonas (4.74%) were the dominant genera at the anode. The estimated cost of the system was $11.225 only. This study explores the catalytic application of waste clam shell in hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of microalgae (Scenedesmus obliquus) for liquid hydrocarbons production. Novel catalyst (calcium hydroxide) was derived from clam shells. Catalytic HTL was performed at varying temperature of 240-320 °C for catalyst load (0.2-1 wt%) at a reaction time of 60 min. Bio-oil yield was maximum (39.6 wt%) at a temperature of 300 °C for catalyst load of 0.6 wt% at a reaction time of 60 min with calorific value of 35.01 MJ/kg. Compounds like phenols, aromatic hydrocarbons, acids and aldehydes were detected in bio-oil through Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrophotometry (GC-MS). Gasification of microalgae with waste solid residue obtained from HTL was carried out for hydrogen production. Valuable hydrogen gas production was maximum (37 wt%) at a temperature of 400 °C for 3 wt% of solid residue. Water-gas shift, methanation and steam reforming reactions favoured the hydrogen gas production. Organoids are becoming widespread in drug-screening technologies but have been used sparingly for cell therapy as current approaches for producing self-organized cell clusters lack scalability or reproducibility in size and cellular organization. We introduce a method of using hydrogels as sacrificial scaffolds, which allow cells to form self-organized clusters followed by gentle release, resulting in highly reproducible multicellular structures on a large scale. We demonstrated this strategy for endothelial cells and mesenchymal stem cells to self-organize into blood-vessel units, which were injected into mice, and rapidly formed perfusing vasculature. Moreover, in a mouse model of peripheral artery disease, intramuscular injections of blood-vessel units resulted in rapid restoration of vascular perfusion within seven days. As cell therapy transforms into a new class of therapeutic modality, this simple method-by making use of the dynamic nature of hydrogels-could offer high yields of self-organized multicellular aggregates with reproducible sizes and cellular architectures. Central to our subjective lives is the experience of different emotions. Varoglutamstat Recent behavioral work mapping emotional responses to 2,185 videos found that people experience upward of 27 distinct emotions occupying a high-dimensional space, and that emotion categories, more so than affective dimensions (e.g., valence), organize self-reports of subjective experience. Here, we sought to identify the neural substrates of this high-dimensional space of emotional experience using fMRI responses to all 2,185 videos. Our analyses demonstrated that (1) dozens of video-evoked emotions were accurately predicted from fMRI patterns in multiple brain regions with different regional configurations for individual emotions; (2) emotion categories better predicted cortical and subcortical responses than affective dimensions, outperforming visual and semantic covariates in transmodal regions; and (3) emotion-related fMRI responses had a cluster-like organization efficiently characterized by distinct categories. These results support an emerging theory of the high-dimensional emotion space, illuminating its neural foundations distributed across transmodal regions.
