Due to the destructive effects of fossil fuels on the environment, using renewable energies has nowadays been suggested. In addition, because of the increased use of solar energy and the prevention the solar cell supply chain (SCSC), this chain is mainly supported by government funding. In this study, we mathematically model both supply-side and de...

This experimental study investigates the capability of a concatenated stepped solar still system (CS4) for RO-waste-water purification by assessing its thermo-enviro-economic aspects. In order to confirm the supremacy of CS4, a simple stepped solar still system (S5) of equivalent basin area (0.75 m2) is fabricated and tested. The experiments are co...

Vermiculite and micaceous minerals are relevant Cs+ sorbents in soils and sediments. To understand the bioavailability of Cs+ in soils resulting from multi-cation exchanges, sorption of Cs+ onto clay minerals was performed in batch experiments with solutions containing Ca2+, Mg2+, and K+. A sequence between a vermiculite and various micaceous struc...
