Microbial Desalination Cell: An Integrated Approach for Wastewater Treatment and Desalination Systems for Sustainable Water Desalination and Wastewater Treatment by Sevda, Suraj

“…This middle chamber works as a desalination chamber in the MDC (Fig. 1). The cations and anions from the desalination chamber moved to the anodic and the cathodic chambers, respectively, due to the cell potential difference between the anode electrode and the cathode electrode; as a result, salts are removed from the saltwater. …”

Phytochemicals as Micronutrients: What Is their Therapeutic Promise in the Management of Traumatic Brain Injury? by Al-Haj, Nadine

“…In this regards, phytochemicals have been acknowledged to cause a significant decrease in neuronal injury through different mechanisms including the activation of the Nrf2 transcription factor leading to activation of several antioxidant enzyme systems such as superoxide dismutase, inhibition of NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes, suppression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activity and reduction of the release of inflammatory mediators, suppression of the NLRP3 inflammasome, stimulation of neurogenesis by activating neurotrophic factors (BDNF), among others. …”

NUMERICAL INVESTIGATION OF THE POTENTIAL OF USING HYDROGEN AS AN ALTERNATIVE FUEL FOR AN INDUSTRIAL BURNER by QAZAK, ABDUL HAFIZ

“…The highest flame stability is recorded at 24% oxygen, but the flame stability decreases when the oxygen rate increases to 28%. Also, combustion stability improves when hydrogen is added to fuel mixtures and improves when oxygen enrichment is 24% in contrast to oxygen enrichment of 26% as well as adding carbon dioxide which causes a reduction in combustion stability. …”
