Introduction Of A Smart Diet Manager In IoT
Excessive consumption leads to 7 trends of crises, including destruction of the atmosphere, energy crisis, social decline and conflicts. Over consumption also deteriorates human health. To reduce excessive consumption not only can improve health, it can also reduce transportation from consumption, livestock raise and sale, and medical care. The reducing over consumption can benefit human health and environmental protection through supply chain management. This motivates us to devise an innovative product. Our imaginative innovative product is a new smart diet manager (DM). After a survey to potential users, it reveals that the new features can help reduce the excessive consumption and deterioration of the human health as well as the destruction of environment. Enterprises can also achieve their social responsibilities through the implementation and popularization of the DM as soon as possible
Quantitative global well-posedness of Boltzmann-Bose-Einstein equation and incompressible Navier-Stokes-Fourier limit
In the diffusive scaling and in the whole space, we prove the global
well-posedness of the scaled Boltzmann-Bose-Einstein (briefly, BBE) equation
with high temperature in the low regularity space . In particular, we
quantify the fluctuation around the Bose-Einstein equilibrium
with respect to the parameters and
temperature . Furthermore, the estimate for the diffusively scaled BBE
equation is uniform to the Knudsen number . As a consequence, we
rigorously justify the hydrodynamic limit to the incompressible
Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations. This is the first rigorous fluid limit result
for BBE.Comment: 42 page
Bis(μ-5-carboxylato-1-carboxylatomethyl-2-oxidopyridinium)-κ2 O 5:O 1;κ2 O 1:O 5-[diaqua(phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)manganese(II)] dihydrate
The centrosymmetric binuclear title complex, [Mn2(C8H5NO5)2(C12H8N2)2(H2O)4]·2H2O, was obtained by the reaction of manganese chloride with 5-carboxy-1-carboxymethyl-2-oxidopyridinium and 1,10-phenanthroline. The MnII atom is coordinated by two N atoms from the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand, two O atoms from two 5-carboxylato-1-carboxylatomethyl-2-oxidopyridinium ligands and two water molecules, leading to a distorted octahedral MnN2O4 environment. Intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds link neighbouring molecules into a layer structure parallel to (001)
Tetraaquabis(5-hydroxynicotinato-κN)cadmium(II)
The title compound, [Cd(C6H4NO3)2(H2O)4], was obtained by the reaction of cadmium chloride with 5-hydroxynicotinic acid. The CdII atom is located on an inversion centre and is coordinated by two N atoms from two 5-hydroxynicotinic acid ligands and four water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. The structure is stabilized by intermolecular O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network
Pentaaqua[2-(5-carboxylato-2-oxido-1-pyridinio)acetato]zinc(II) monohydrate
In the title compound, [Zn(C8H5NO5)(H2O)5]·H2O, the ZnII atom is coordinated by one O atom from the 2-(5-carboxylato-2-oxidopyridinium-1-yl)acetate ligand and by five water molecules, forming a distorted octahedral geometry. Coordinated and uncoordinated water molecules form O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds, leading to a three-dimensional framework
Interconnection of Key Microbial Functional Genes for Enhanced Benzo[a]pyrene Biodegradation in Sediments by Microbial Electrochemistry.
Sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) can stimulate the degradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in sediments, but the mechanism of this process is poorly understood at the microbial functional gene level. Here, the use of SMFC resulted in 92% benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) removal over 970 days relative to 54% in the controls. Sediment functions, microbial community structure, and network interactions were dramatically altered by the SMFC employment. Functional gene analysis showed that c-type cytochrome genes for electron transfer, aromatic degradation genes, and extracellular ligninolytic enzymes involved in lignin degradation were significantly enriched in bulk sediments during SMFC operation. Correspondingly, chemical analysis of the system showed that these genetic changes resulted in increases in the levels of easily oxidizable organic carbon and humic acids which may have resulted in increased BaP bioavailability and increased degradation rates. Tracking microbial functional genes and corresponding organic matter responses should aid mechanistic understanding of BaP enhanced biodegradation by microbial electrochemistry and development of sustainable bioremediation strategies
