Nanocrystalline magnesium oxides were prepared by sol–gel method and were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2-BET, SEM and infrared spectroscopy techniques. The results confirmed the formation of Nano- MgO materials with crystallite size in range of 5-20 nm and surface areas of 336-556m2/g. The product has been tested as destructive adsorbent for the decontamination of (2-chloroethyl) et...

This paper aims to identify patterns of functional specialisation (FS) in global value chains (GVCs) and determinants upgrading them for selected Central Eastern European (CEE) economies. By combing the World Input-Output Database with data on occupations, we reveal a new FS pattern among subgroups CEEs. Poland Slovakia have an unfavourable GVC position specialise low value-added fabrication fu...

Paenibacillus larvae is the etiological agent of American foulbrood (AFB) disease, a contagious bacterial disease that infects honeybees (Apis mellifera L.). Screening naturally occurring compounds to negate concerns related wide use antibiotics an urgent need for prevention and treatment AFB disease. In this study, we demonstrated crude ethanolic extracts (CEEs) from leaves Trapa bispinosa Rox...

This paper mainly describes the transmission reliability and physical layer security of multiantenna decode-and-forward relay networks over κ - id="M4"> μ shadowed fading distribution. We consider existence residual hardware impairments (RHIs) channel estimation errors (CEEs) at same time. Firstly, we give netwo...

Purpose: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects use different swine wastewater (ARS) in electrical (CEes) and hydraulic (K0) conductivity soil grown with tomato, as well tomato yeld.
 
 Method/design/approach: literature review showed that studies have been based on application residues replacing evapotranspirometric demand, causing deleterious plants.
 Results c...

Acknowledgments At the start of a Ph.D. project, you never know where it will take you. Though the research plan for my project contained several paragraphs on the planned research for the first two years, the plan for the last two years consisted of only a couple of lines. Even this concise plan turned out to be too detailed, since some research directions turned out to be less promising than ...

The adsorption of dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP) on the (0 1 0) surface of anatase TiO2, which is isostructural with the (1 0 0), has been studied using density functional theory and two-dimensionallyperiodic slab models. The experimentally-observed faceting of this surface has, for the first time, been included in the modeling. The relaxations of bare surfaces both with and without faceting...
