Caffeine is considered the most representative pharmaceutical emerging contaminant (PEC) because of its ubiquity, high environmental abundance, uncovered ecological risks, and its indicator property for anthropogenic environmental inputs of PECs. Ecopharmacovigilance (EPV) targeting caffeine has been proposed as an optimized measure for the control of caffeine pollution sources and the related anthropogenic behaviors from the perspective of pharmacy administration. This cross-sectional study was conducted to evaluate the environmental knowledge, behaviors, and attitudes regarding caffeine consumption among university students, one of the groups with high caffeine consumption, from an EPV perspective. Three hundred and seven usable survey instruments were acquired. The mean score for environmental knowledge about caffeine consumption was 3.66 out of a total of 7. The consumption frequency of caffeinated drinks, food, or drugs among student respondents was low. Throwing away in "household garbage" was an important disposal mechanism for unconsumed caffeinated products. Most students showed positive attitudes and strong intentions toward caffeine pollution control from the perspective of targeted EPV. These data suggested high acceptance of EPV program targeting caffeine among university students. However, more should be done to enhance their related knowledge, and some strengthening interventions for the effective removal of residual caffeine in garbage are needed.With sustained economic development, China's ecological environment is becoming increasingly fragile and the problem of haze pollution is becoming increasingly prominent, which has affected the normal life of human beings and the stable development of society.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/a-438079-hcl.html  In this paper, 287 cities' panel data from 1998 to 2016 are used, PM2.5 is used to represent haze pollution, and the spatial Durbin model is used to explore the role of the economy and population agglomeration on smog pollution. The empirical results show that (1) haze pollution has obvious spatial spillover. From the perspective of China as a whole, the relationship between the economy and smog pollution is an inverted U shape. (2) China is divided into three economic regions, i.e., the east, the middle, and the west. In the east and middle regions, it is found that economic development also shows an inverted U-shaped relationship with haze pollution. (3) Regardless of the country or the three major economic regions, population agglomeration is the primary factor that aggravates haze pollution; the progress of technology and the optimization of the industrial structure can improve haze pollution. (4) Through further analysis of the indirect effects of haze in China, it is found that there is a significant spatial spillover effect. According to the results of this research, policy suggestions are put forward.The international community has generally recognized the key role of developing countries' cities in reducing carbon emissions, an elemental way to mitigate climate change. However, few have empirically analyzed the impact of market-based instruments such as emission trading system on urban carbon emissions in developing economies. This paper examines the effect of China's pilot carbon trading markets, the first emission trading system in developing economies, on cities' carbon intensity. We also explore the mechanism by which the emission trading system achieves its influence. The PSM-DID method is used to analyze the panel data including China's 273 prefecture-level cities from 2010 to 2016. The results illustrate that the emission trading system significantly decreased pilot cities' carbon intensity and this effect endured; as time progressed, the reduction effect was increasing. Through mediating effect analysis, we find that the emission trading system reduced the carbon intensity via increasing the proportion of tertiary industry output value in GDP and decreasing the energy intensity. Overall, the empirical results suggest that the Chinese government should drive the establishment and improvement of a national carbon market, proactively adjust industry structure, and consider the possible influence caused by the potential energy rebound effect.Carbon aerogels are attracting much attention as adsorbents due to their high specific surface and large accessible pores. Herein, we describe a successful synthesis of a magnetic carbon aerogel (MCA) using sodium alginate (SA) as the main carbon source, gelatin (G) as a cross-linking agent and secondary carbon source, and Fe3O4 nanoparticles as the magnetic component. A simple pyrolysis treatment at 550 °C under N2 transformed a Fe3O4/SA/G hydrogel precursor into the MCA. The obtained magnetic carbon aerogel possessed a high specific surface area (145.7 m2/g), a hierarchically porous structure, and an abundance of surface hydroxyl (-OH) and carboxyl (-COOH) groups, resulting in outstanding sorption properties for aqueous Cd(II) (an adsorption capacity of 143.88 mg/Lmg/g). The mechanism of Cd(II) adsorption by the MCA was investigated, with the results obtained suggesting that the MCA removed cadmium ions from water by both electrostatic adsorption and complexation. Since the MCAs contained Fe3O4 nanoparticles, they could easily be separated and recovered from water using a magnet. This study thus identifies a promising and efficient technology for removing Cd(II) ions from aqueous solutions.In this study, the effects of adding a condensing cavity in a passive single-basin solar still are investigated experimentally under the climate condition of Mashhad. The condensing cavity acts as an interior cooler. It is cooled by the natural convection heat transfer with the surroundings and accordingly; it keeps the evaporating chamber at a lower pressure. Hence, the condensing cavity increases the rate of evaporation. As a result, this still can increase the productivity of freshwater. The results show that the ratio of vapor condensation on the inner surface of the condensing cavity is about 43% of the vapor condensation on the inner surface of the glass cover, which is 30% of the total freshwater during one day of experiment. This modified solar still represents a simple system, and it can be easily manufactured at a low cost.
