The operation of most engineered hydrogeological systems relies on simulating physical processes using numerical models with uncertain parameters and initial conditions. Predictions by such uncertain models can be greatly improved by Kalman-filter te...
Li, Y.;Johnson, E.K.;Shi, T.;Campbell, H.;Chaves, S.S.;Commaille-Chapus, C.;Dighero, I.;James, S.L.;Mahé, C.;Ooi, Y.;Paget, J.;Pomeren, T. van;Viboud, C.;Nair, H. Background Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the predominant viral pathogen associated with acute lower respiratory infection (ALRI) in children who are younger than 5 years. Little is reported on the national estimates of RSV-associated ALRI hosp...
The aim of this study was to investigate the antidepressant activity of vortioxetine in a tryptophan (TRP) depletion female rat model of depression and compare it to that of paroxetine using doses that fully occupy the serotonin transporter (SERT). W...
Bauxite residue (BR) is a highly alkaline solid hazardous waste produced from bauxite processing for alumina production. Alkaline transformation appears to reduce the environmental risk of bauxite residue disposal areas (BRDAs) whilst potentially pro...
Bauxite residue is a highly alkaline waste containing soluble alkaline anions, which can cause environmental concerns. The optimal leaching conditions, distribution of alkaline anions, types of pivotal alkaline anions and their dissolution behaviors ...
Bauxite residue is a highly alkaline material generated from the production of alumina in which bauxite is dissolved in caustic soda. Approximately 4.4 billion tons of bauxite residues are either stockpiled or landfilled, creating environmental risks...
Alkaline anions, include CO32–, HCO3–, Al(OH)4–, OH–, continuously released from bauxite residue (BR), will cause a potential disastrous impact on surrounding environment. The composition variation of alkaline anions, alkaline phase transformation pa...
Hou, J.;Sha, Z.;Hartley, W.;Tan, W.;Wang, M.;Xiong, J.;Li, Y.;Ke, Y.;Long, Y.;Xue, S. Cryptomelane-type octahedral molecular sieve manganese oxide (OMS-2) possesses high redox potential and has attracted much interest in its application for oxidation arsenite (As(III)) species of arsenic to arsenate (As(V)) to decrease arsenic toxicit...
Birnessite-type manganese oxide is a highly efficient oxidant that has been investigated widely for As(III) oxidation. Nevertheless As(III) oxidation rate is inevitably reduced due to favorable adsorption of coexisting ions and As(V) which passivate ...
