This review addresses the recovery of metals from all main types spent batteries (including Li-based, Zn-based, and Ni-based batteries) using bioleaching processes. Traditional processes are based on pyrometallurgical hydrometallurgical methods can be costly and, in some cases, cannot effectively recover used battery manufacture. Biobased hydrometallurgy may circumvent these drawbacks. presents...

the aim of this work is to probe the influence of nanoclay and turmeric spends content on microcrystalline of vinyl ester hybrid nanocomposites. a series of vinyl ester hybrid nanocomposites have been fabricated with varying amounts of ts viz., 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10 % w/w along with 2% nanoclay. the microcrystalline parameters such as crystallite size and lattice strain of vinyl ester hybrid na...

an approach to recycle precious metals of cathode materials from spent lithium cobalt oxide batteries by using organic citric acid and hydrogen peroxide has been studied in this paper. the effects of molar ratio, solid-liquid ratio, reaction time and temperature on leaching efficiency of cobalt were investigated respectively. meanwhile the leaching kinetics equation of cobalt was established, a...

Executive function (EF) abilities are increasingly recognized as an important protective factor for children experiencing adversity, promoting better stress and emotion regulation as well as social and academic adjustment. We provide evidence that early life adversity is associated with significant reductions in EF performance on a developmentally sensitive battery of laboratory EF tasks that m...

Harvester ants (Messor galla Forel) defied various control strategies. Two field experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of Spent Engine-Oil and other nature-based materials on their emergence in Maiduguri, Borno State of Nigeria. The treatments evaluated are spot application of spent engine-oil and some natural materials in experiment 1 and individual and equal mixture of Pure Neem ...

BACKGROUND This study is a part of the randomized controlled trial, the Trondheim Hip Fracture Trial, and it compared physical behavior and function during the first postoperative days for hip fracture patients managed with comprehensive geriatric care (CGC) with those managed with orthopedic care (OC). METHODS Treatment comprised CGC with particular focus on mobilization, or OC. A total of 3...
