Selective hydrogenation of halonitrobenzenes into haloanilines represents a green process to replace the environmentally unfriendly non-catalytic chemical reduction in industry. However, this transformation often suffers from serious dehalogenation due easy break carbon-halogen bonds on metal surfaces. Modulations electronic structure supported Pd nanoparticles Lewis-basic layered double hydrox...

Piezoelectrics have been widely used in different kinds of applications, from the automobile industry to consumer electronics. The novel multilayer piezoelectrics, which are inspired by multilayer ceramic capacitors, not only minimize the size of the functional parts, but also maximize energy efficiency. Development of multilayer piezoelectric devices is at a significant crossroads on the way t...

Zinc-based adsorbents currently in use for H2S removal from tail gas in the oil and gas industry have limited regenerability and reduced performance over multiple cycles [1,2]. Spatially well-distributed metal nanoparticles in mesoporous substrates can be effective in achieving better performance over multiple adsorption and regeneration cycles [3,4]. One of the critical aspects of understandin...

we used wild boars and roe deer as biomonitors of lead (pb), cadmium (cd), and mercury (hg)contamination in two major industrial sites in poland with different levels of toxic metal pollution. masurianlakes district, located far away from industry, was used as the reference site. levels of pb, cd, and hg in liver,kidney and muscle samples and in the stomach content of the animals were determine...

This paper tries to describe how complex lexical transfer in METAL is done. In a first section it explains the basic outlines and changes in the transfer concept of METAL. In the following two sections, it presents examples which show what kinds of tests and actions have to be coped with by a MT system. Chapter four shows the consequences of these cases on the system architecture of METAL, and ...
