Electrocoagulation treatment of reject brine effluent from Solvay process by Osman M.A.

“…Three-experiment design levels and response surface methodologies were used to model the system. A second-order polynomial model was developed and used to predict the optimum conditions, which were found to be at a 0.2 A/cm2 current density, 36.8°C temperature, and initial Cl− concentration of 7.4 × 103mg/L. …”

Occurrence and removal characteristics of phthalate esters from bottled drinking water using silver modified roasted date pits by Alhaddad F.A.

“…Batch adsorption isotherms were used to study and establish the efficiency of such adsorbents in removing phthalate esters, in which they describe the adsorbent-adsorbate interaction systems. Adsorption efficiency of the various adsorbents was investigated by using different adsorbent masses (0.05�g, 0.10�g, and 0.15�g) and temperature (30��C, 50��C, and 60��C). …”

Global age-sex-specific mortality, life expectancy, and population estimates in 204 countries and territories and 811 subnational locations, 1950–2021, and the impact of the COVID-... by Schumacher, Austin E.

“…Uncertainty intervals (UIs) were calculated for every metric using the 25th and 975th ordered values from a 1000-draw posterior distribution. Findings: Global all-cause mortality followed two distinct patterns over the study period: age-standardised mortality rates declined between 1950 and 2019 (a 62·8% [95% UI 60·5–65·1] decline), and increased during the COVID-19 pandemic period (2020–21; 5·1% [0·9–9·6] increase). …”
