A two years drip irrigation of lettuce and leek crops with treated municipal wastewater without and with spiking with fourteen wastewater relevant contaminants at 10 μg/L concentration level was conducted under greenhouse cultivation conditions to investigate their potential accumulation in soil and leaves and to assess human health related risks. ...

Volatile thiols are very strong-smelling molecules that can impact the aroma of numerous beverages. Several thiols and thiol precursors have been reported previously in different plants used as raw material for beverages, some of which are fermented. We focused on thiols in beverages and their release mechanisms from precursors during processing. V...

We investigate effects of surfactants with different charges (anionic, cationic, and non-ionic) on foam stability in the presence of charge-stabilized silica (SiO2) nanoparticles. Toward this aim, a comprehensive series of experiments on a Hele-Shaw cell and a foam column is conducted at bubble and bulk-scale respectively, that is, investigating ph...

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) is considered as a promising noble-metal-free electrocatalyst for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER). However, to effectively employ such material in the HER process, the corresponding electrocatalytic activity should be comparable or even higher than that of Pt-based materials. Thus, efforts in structural design of M...
Nowadays, the proton exchange membrane electrolyzer (PEMEL) is a promising and attractive technology when coupling with renewable energy sources (RES). Indeed, PEMEL can respond quickly to the dynamic operations of RES. Given that PEMEL must be supplied with a low DC voltage, DC-DC converters are mandatory. In this work, a stacked interleaved buck ...
The work is devoted to the preparation and photochemical investigations of the novel binuclear heterometallic complex [Ru(NO)(NO 2) 2 (μ-NO 2)(μ-CH 3 COO)(μ-O)VO(dbbpy)]. CH 3 CN (dbbpy-4,4'-di-tert-butyl-2,2'-bipyridyl), which is obtained with quantitative yield. The structure of the complex is determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction and by...

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is a widely recognized ceramic of distinct electrical, mechanical and optical properties. Although YSZ is an intrinsically paramagnetic solid, it could potentially transform to a magnetic semiconductor by incorporating in its crystalline structure isolated atoms bearing unpaired valence electrons. Based on this hypo...
