The present study serves experimental and theoretical analyses in developing a hybrid advanced structure as a photolysis, which is based on electrospun Graphene Oxide-titanium dioxide (GO-TiO2) nanofibers as an electron transfer material (ETMs) functionalized for perovskite solar cell (PVSCs) with GO. The prepared ETMs were utilized for the synthesis of mixed-cation (FAPbI3)0.8(MAPbBr3)0.2. The effect of GO on TiO2 and their chemical structure, electronic and morphological characteristic were investigated and discussed. The elaborated device, namely ITO/Bl-TiO2/3 wt% GO-TiO2/(FAPbI3)0.8(MAPbBr3)0.2/spiro-MeTAD/Pt, displayed 20.14% disposition and conversion solar energy with fill factor (FF) of 1.176%, short circuit current density (Jsc) of 20.56 mA/cm2 and open circuit voltage (VOC) 0.912 V. The obtained efficiency is higher than titanium oxide (18.42%) and other prepared GO-TiO2 composite nanofibers based ETMs. The developed materials and device would facilitate elaboration of advanced functional materials and devices for energy storage applications. © 2024 The Authors

In this scientific research work, the problem of studying the process of removing water-containing iron solutions with an Etro-04 device based on high-frequency corona discharge is considered. In the research work, a special Etro-04 ozonator device was developed for the oxidation of heavy metals, i.e. chemical pollutants contained in water. Work on testing the device was carried out in order to clean the underground water “Aktogay wide place”. During the research work, various painful heavy metals were found in the composition of the source water that do not meet the maximum permissible (MPC). For example, iron (Fe2+, Fe3+) solutions met 2.00 – 2.2 mg/l. This means that the MPC is 7 times more than the specified value. In order to solve this problem, research work was carried out. During the technological process, various amounts of ozone (O3) were released into the water, the amount and effective economic indicators of which were determined. In the same way, the effective time of the oxidation and cleaning process was determined. During the research process, an algorithm of theoretical calculations was developed and a mathematical model was given to bring 1m3 of groundwater to a fixed indicator. In order to determine the effectiveness of cleaning the iron contained in the water by the concentration of ozone and the filter load, water filtration works were carried out at different speeds of 5.5-9.5 m/h. For example, with an ozone content of C =100 mg/l and a filtration rate of 9.5 m/h, you can see that the iron content in water is purified by 30% percent, 8.5 m/h – 55% percent, 7.5 m/h-77% percent, and 5.5 m/h-90% percent. Experimentally and theoretically, it was found that Iron solutions with water content were purified by 98-98.7% percent, respectively, with an ozone concentration of C = 500-600 mg/l and a filtration rate of 5.5 m/h. © 2023, Zibeline International Publishing Sdn.

The g-C3N4 (GCN) adsorbent with two different morphologies, coral (CGCN) and nano fiber (GCNNF), was synthesized and recruited for extraction and preconcentration of lead and copper metal ions by effervescent salt-assisted dispersive micro solid phase extraction procedure. The structures of the two adsorbents were affirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analyses. The factors affecting the extraction efficiency were carefully studied and the optimum values of the parameters for both adsorbents were pH 6.5, adsorbent dosage 8 mg, desorption time 3 min, and the elution solvent 300 μL of 2 mol L−1 of HNO3. The detection limits of Pb(II (and Cu(II) ions for CGCN were 0.9 and 0.3 μgL−1 and for GCNNF were 1.56 and 0.7 μgL−1, respectively. The percent relative standard deviations were obtained to be 1.32% and 2.23% for CGCN (n = 3) and 1.24% and 2.29% for GCNNF (n = 3), respectively for the lead and copper metal ions. In addition, the adsorbents could be used up to 7 times without an imperative reduction in the percentages of analytes recovery. Finally, the performance of CGCN and GCNNF were used for preconcentrate of lead and copper ions in honey, canned fish, and human hair samples. © 2022 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.

This article discusses the current problem of industrial waste disposal and its use in the production of building materials, which corresponds to the global concept of sustainable development. Attention is mainly paid to the development of a gruntosilicate composite (concrete) based on a mineral slag binder using drilling sludge from the mining industry, ashes from thermal power plants and electrothermophosphoric slag. Physico-chemical studies of man-made raw materials have been carried out, including analysis of chemical and mineralogical composition, granulometric characteristics, radiation safety and other parameters. It has been established that drilling mud, thermal power plant ash and electrothermophosphoric slag meet the requirements for use in building materials and belong to non-hazardous waste. The optimal ratios of the components in the composition of gruntosilicate concrete have been experimentally determined. The highest compressive strength (3.0–3.5 MPa) is achieved with a drilling mud content of 15–23% and a mineral slag binder of 10–20%. It is shown that the introduction of these wastes improves the structure of the material, reduces shrinkage deformations and ensures compliance with the requirements of road surfaces of the II–III classes. The use of industrial waste in construction will reduce the cost of raw materials by approximately 10–30%, reduce the environmental burden and solve the problem of waste disposal. The results of the study demonstrate the prospects of creating a waste-processing industry capable of processing up to 40% of industrial waste into building materials. © 2025 by the authors.

Water contamination has emerged as one of the fundamental factor for water shortage issue in the current era. As of now, different organic and inorganic pollutants are the main toxic components in water and are released from different sources. Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been developed in different fields because of their novel chemical, catalytic and structural advantages. These materials and their composites have gained much attention in recent years, both as effective sorbents and as photocatalysts, for removing several toxicants such as heavy metals and dyes from the waters and wastewaters. Nowadays, one of extensive research hotspots in these field is MOF derived carbonaceous materials for water detoxification. Among the presently explored materials for water treatment, MOF derived carbons have caused the establishment of great platforms for removal of several contaminations from water, by virtue of their appealing benefits like large pore volume, high porosity, high surface area, and chemical stability. In this review, we focused on different synthesis methods of MOFs and MOFs composites, and furthermore their carbon derived materials were discussed. In addition, applications of MOFs derived carbon materials for water detoxification was thoroughly discussed. More prominently, viewpoints towards exploitation of these developing advanced MOF derived carbon materials as catalytic routes were extensively summarized. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.

The development of durable and efficient membranes is essential for addressing environmental pollution caused by industrial oil spills and oily wastewater. This study presents a simple surface modification approach using a sol-gel dip-coating technique to fabricate hydrophobic cellulose membranes (CMs) for oil-water separation. Two silane agents—hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS) and triethoxy(octyl)silane (OTES)—were separately introduced into the sol-gel reaction to enhance membrane hydrophobicity and separation performance. Results showed that cellulose membranes modified with OTES (MCMs-OTES) exhibited superior oil-water separation efficiency compared to those treated with HDTMS (MCMs-HDTMS), despite having lower water contact angles (WCAs). This finding suggests that surface wetting properties alone do not solely determine separation performance; instead, the presence and distribution of silicon nanoparticles formed during the sol-gel process play a significant role. Additionally, the impact of different CM pore sizes (2.5 μm, 5.0 μm, 20 μm, and 20–25 μm) on separation performance was investigated. Among these, MCMs-OTES with the largest pore size (20–25 μm) achieved the highest average separation flux (14088.7 L m−2 h−1) and efficiency (96.1 %). Notably, both HDTMS- and OTES-modified membranes exhibited excellent fouling resistance and long-term durability, maintaining high separation efficiencies over time. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd

The article deals with the issues of increasing the efficiency of drilling by developing and studying the process of interaction between the teeth of the drilling tool and the rock. A model of a tricone type drill bit has been developed. When drilling wells, 70-85% of the bits used are tricone bits. For an accurate comparative analysis, two variants of a tricone drill bit were studied, a serial one and a proposed one with a diameter of 215.9 mm. The interaction of the rock destroying tool with the rock during drilling is analyzed in a complex way using the ANSYS program, which operates on the basis of the finite element method. The change in the overall speed of an optimized tricone bit during interaction with the rock is considered. According to the results of the study, the parameters of the speed of penetration of the tooth into the rock were obtained, an analysis of the equivalent stress was carried out during the interaction of serial and experimental tricone bits with the rock. Graphs of changes in the equivalent stress of the rock by the penetration of the cone elements into it depending on time for both drilling tools were obtained. The results obtained in the study of the interaction of a rock destroying tool with a rock during drilling make it possible to determine the optimal parameters for placing teeth on the cone body at the design stage of tricone type drilling tools in the development of energy efficient bits. © J.B.
