In this study, we propose a highly efficient robot platform for pollutant adsorption.This robot system consists of a flapping-wing micro aircraft (FWMA) for long-distance transportation and delivery and cost-effective multifunctional Janus microrobots for pollutant purification.The flapping-wing micro air vehicle can hover for 11.3 km with a flappi
Aerobic granular sludge is attractive for high-rate biological wastewater treatment.Biomass wash-out conditions stimulate the formation of aerobic granules.Deteriorated performances in biomass settling and nutrient removal during start-up have however often been reported.The effect of wash-out dynamics was investigated on bacterial selection, bioma
This article is devoted to the problem of interpretation and understanding of African philosophy as a phenomenon of intercultural communication.It is a question of the presence of stereotypes in perception and assessments of African philosophy: from the assertion of its interiority and non-philosophical character to the propaganda of its primacy in
Peptide-functionalized nanomedicine has emerged as a transformative approach in precision therapeutics and diagnostics, leveraging the specificity of peptides to enhance the performance of nanocarriers, including gold nanoparticles, polymeric nanoparticles, liposomes, mesoporous silica nanoparticles, and quantum dots.These systems enable targeted d
Vector-borne Ramekins diseases spread from wild animals and their associated ectoparasites to humans and domesticated animals.Wildlife markets are recognized as important areas where this transfer can take place.We assessed the potential for spreading vector-borne diseases in two live and wet markets in Myanmar (Mong La, on the Myanmar-China border
