We develop a model that captures the dominant chemical mechanisms involved in the removal of fluoride from water by a novel adsorbent comprising mineral rich carbon (MRC) and chemically treated mineral rich carbon (TMRC). Working with…
Purpose: To understand the influence of various acquisition parameters on the ability of CEST MR-Fingerprinting (MRF) to discriminate different chemical exchange parameters and to provide tools for optimal acquisition schedule design and…
Dental fluorosis is a chronic disease caused by long-term overconsumption of fluoride, which leads to changes in the appearance of tooth enamel. It is an important basis for early non-invasive diagnosis of endemic fluorosis. However, even…
As an essential attribute of organic compounds, polarity has a profound influence on many molecular properties such as solubility and phase transition temperature. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) represents a commonly used technique for…
Clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs) collect hundreds of measurements spanning various metric types (e.g., laboratory tests, cognitive/motor assessments, etc.) across 100s-1000s of subjects to evaluate the effect of a treatment, but…
Collaborative Filtering (CF) methods dominate real-world recommender systems given their ability to learn high-quality, sparse ID-embedding tables that effectively capture user preferences. These tables scale linearly with the number of…
A mathematical model is developed for the process of mass transfer from a fluid flowing through a packed column. Mass loss, whether by absorption or adsorption, may be significant. This is appropriate for example when removing contaminants…
Marine chlorophyll concentration is an important indicator of ecosystem health and carbon cycle strength, and its accurate prediction is crucial for red tide warning and ecological response. In this paper, we propose a LSTM-RF hybrid model…
Microbial fuel cells implemented in constructed wetlands (CW-MFCs), albeit a relatively new technology still under study, have shown to improve treatment efficiency of urban wastewater. So far the vast majority of CW-MFC systems…
Chromates are widely used for their anticorrosive properties. Unfortunately, they are highly hazardous with environmental agencies regulating their levels to below 10 ppb in drinking water. As anion exchange resins are typically used for…
Abundance of fecal coliform (FC) is widely used to indicate the potential presence of pathogens, the No.1 cause of water impairments in the U.S. Despite extensive monitoring efforts, assessing and modeling FC pollution still faces…
The choice of appropriate interaction models is among the major disadvantages of conventional methods such as molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations. On the other hand, the so-called reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) method, based on…
Carbon dioxide will likely need to be removed from the atmosphere to avoid significant future warming and climate change. Technologies are being developed to remove large quantities of carbon from the atmosphere. Enhanced rock weathering…
In modern Industry 4.0 applications, a huge amount of data is acquired during manufacturing processes that are often contaminated with anomalous observations in the form of both casewise and cellwise outliers. These can seriously reduce the…
Motivated by the Iowa Fluoride Study (IFS), which tracked fluoride intake and dental outcomes from childhood to young adulthood (ages 9, 13, 17, and 23), we analyze dental fluorosis - a condition caused by excessive fluoride exposure during…
Porous media are ubiquitous in energy storage and conversion, catalysis, biomechanics, hydrogeology, as well as many other fields. These materials possess high surface-to-volume ratios and their complex channels can restrict and guide the…
The removal of leaked radioactive iodine isotopes in humid environments holds significant importance in nuclear waste management and nuclear accident mitigation. In this study, high-throughput computational screening and machine learning…
The high concentration level of the environmental factors, such as a high ammonia concentration and pH level, affect the water quality, affecting fish's survival and mass death. Therefore, there is a critical need to develop control…
A mathematical model using classical cake-filtration theory and the surface-renewal concept is formulated for describing constant flux, cross-flow microfiltration (CFMF). The model provides explicit analytical expressions for the…
A series of SmFeAsO1-xFx (Sm1111) bulk samples (x = 0.05 to 0.40) are synthesized by an in-situ cubic-anvil high-pressure technique at 4 GPa and systematically characterized through structural, microstructural, Raman, transport, and…
