The EEC represents the energy consumption and CO2 emissions at individual phases of a building's life-cycle, such as construction (including manufacture of materials and equipment), renewal (including repair work) and demolition. Energy and CO2 emission intensities in terms of 401 sectors were calculated, using the 2005 I-O (input-output) table in Japan. According to our case study conducted from the construction phase to demolition, the EC (embodied CO2) of an office building used for 60 years is 12,044 t-CO2 and 1,093 kg-CO2/m^2 in total. CO2 equivalent emissions (CO2e) by Freon gases, contained in building materials, equipment and devices, were also calculated. As the results, CO2e by insulators was 2% of the building's EC and CO2e by refrigerants was 9%-12% of the building's EC. It is important to keep reducing emissions of Freon gases contained in refrigerators.展开更多

文摘The rational design of high-performance CO_(2)adsorbents remains a critical challenge in addressing global carbon emissions,with metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)emerging as promising candidates due to their tunable pore environments.However,the lack of systematic guidelines for functional group selection has hindered their practical implementation in carbon capture applications.Here,this gap was addressed by developing a comprehensive design framework through high-throughput computational screening.Through construction of a topology-directed database of 4797,integrating 10 metal centers with 144 functionalized ligands(18 ligands modified by–NH_(2),–NO_(2),–CH_(3),–CF_(3),–SH_(2),–SO_(2),–OH,and–OLi)across 36 topologies,the fundamental structure–property relationships governing CO_(2)capture performance was established.Multi-metric evaluation reveals that–NO_(2),–SO_(2),and–OLi dramatically enhance CO_(2)selectivity over CH_4/N_(2)via selectivity(S_(ads)),working capacity(ΔN),adsorbent performance score(APS),sorbent selection parameter(S_(sp)),and renewability R.Specially,ΔN rises from 2.34(pristine)to 5.91–7.94 mmol g^(-1)and S_(ads)surges from 24.94/40.36 to 121.11/176.87(–NO_(2)),149.94/215.54(–SO_(2)),and 58.64/267.44(–OLi).Besides,the critical trade-off between adsorption strength and renewability demonstrates that enhanced performance comes at the cost of reduced renewability,where stronger CO_(2)affinity(isosteric heat of-29.15,-29.96,and-30.09 for–NO_(2),–SO_(2),and–OLi)compromises renewability(R reduced by -50%).To resolve this trade-off,a novel energy efficiency(η)metric was introduced,which holistically evaluates both adsorption performance(S_(ads),ΔN,APS,S_(sp),and R)and energy inputs(desorption heat,pressure-swing energy,net loss).This leads to the identification of–SO_(2)as the optimal functional group that balances exceptional CO_(2)capture(η=6.17/12.78 for CO_(2)over CH_4/N_(2)),surpassing the second higher of 4.74/8.80 in–CF_(3)and 0.99/2.18 in non-functionalized counterparts.Adopting high-throughput computational screening methods,this work provides both fundamental insights into host–vip interactions in functionalized MOFs and a practical framework for designing next-generation adsorbents,bridging the gap between materials discovery and process engineering considerations in carbon capture technologies.

文摘Energy transfers among internal waves in the northern South China Sea are not well characterized,particularly during typhoons,owing to the lack of in situ observations.Based on high-resolution mooring data collected during Typhoon Trami(2024),this study reveals the occurrence of robust vertical energy redistribution among diurnal internal tides(D1 ITs)and near-inertial waves(NIWs).Strikingly,the typhoon not only amplified the NIW energy but also triggered an unexpected surge in the D1 IT energy.The observed average net energy transfer rate of 1×10^(-7) W kg^(−1) from typhoon-forced NIWs to D1 ITs occurred at water depths of 120-170 m.Further bispectral analysis indicated that the energy transfer is driven by nonlinear wave—wave interaction.These results reveal the existence of a new energy transfer pathway—from atmospheric forcing to D1 ITs—and redefine the redistribution of the internal wave energy during extreme weather events.

文摘Supercapacitors are indispensable for next-generation energy storage,achieving high energy density and long-term durability remains a formidable challenge.Conventional CoS suffers from poor conductivity,while Ti_(3)C_(2)faces severe restacking.Herein,we report a novel synthesis strategy that integrates metal-organic framework(MOF)growth with electrostatic self-assembly to construct heterojunction of CoS nanotubes coated with ultrathin Ti_(3)C_(2)nanofilms.Material characterization via SEM,TEM,XRD,and XPS systematically confirms the heterostructure formation,and chemical composition.This rational design synergistically leverages CoS high pseudocapacitance and Ti_(3)C_(2)metallic conductivity while the heterostructure mitigates restacking,enhances charge transfer,and stabilizes interfacial interactions.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations reveal strengthened OH-adsorption at the Co-Ti interface(E_(ad)=1.106 eV).Consequently,the CoS/Ti_(3)C_(2)@CC delivers a remarkable specific capacitance of 1034.21 F g^(-1) at 1 A g^(-1).Assembled into a supercapacitor,CoS/Ti_(3)C_(2)@CC//AC achieves a high energy density of 74.22 Wh kg^(-1) at 800 W kg^(-1),maintaining 89.13%initial capacitance after 10,000 cycles.Significantly,it exhibits a remarkably low leakage current(0.23μA)and ultra-prolonged voltage retention(47.14%after 120 h),underscoring exceptional durability.This work pioneers a rational heterostructure engineering strategy by integrating MOF-derived architectures with conductive MXene nanofilms,offering critical insights for the development of ultra-durable supercapacitors.

文摘Objectives:Philadelphia chromosome-positive B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and Philadelphia-like B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(Ph+/Ph-like ALL)constitute the majority of relapsed/refractory B-ALL(R/R B-ALL)cases,highlighting an urgent need to discover new therapeutic targets.This study aims to elucidate the mechanisms underlying poor prognosis in Ph+/Ph-like ALL through transcriptome sequencing and functional cytological assays,with the goal of informing new clinical treatment strategies.Results:Transcriptomic analysis of Ph+/Ph-like ALL patients revealed that low expression of P2X Purinoceptor 1(P2RX1)was associated with unfavorable outcomes.Specifically,patients with poor prognosis and low P2RX1 expression exhibited downregulation of genes involved in energy and calcium metabolism pathways,along with upregulation of genes governing key cellular processes such as cell proliferation(e.g.,MYC),cell cycle progression(e.g.,CCND2),and apoptosis inhibition(e.g.,DASP6).Cellular experiments demonstrated that SUP-B15 cells overexpressing P2RX1 displayed elevated intracellular levels of ATP,calcium,and glucose,together with enhanced glycolytic capacity,compared to empty vector controls.Treatment of SUP-B15 cells with dexamethasone(Dex),Imatinib,or their combination significantly suppressed proliferation and promoted apoptosis,which was accompanied by increases in intracellular ATP,calcium,and glucose.Moreover,exogenous ATP administration(a P2RX1 agonist)enhanced apoptosis and inhibited proliferation in control cells.Conversely,treatment with NF449(a P2RX1 inhibitor)increased proliferation in both P2RX1-overexpressing and control SUP-B15 cells.Conclusion:Our findings indicate that P2RX1 may exert this function through modulating energy metabolism and calcium homeostasis,resulting in elevated intracellular calcium levels.Sustained elevation of calcium promotes apoptosis,whereas exogenous ATP activates P2RX1,enhances calcium influx,and attenuates the suppression of apoptosis associated with P2RX1 underexpression,ultimately correlating with improved treatment response.

文摘NASICON-type Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3)(NVP)materials are seen as highly promising cathode materials in the field of sodium-ion batteries due to their low cost,a solid three-dimensional skeleton and good theoretical capacity,as well as high ionic conductivity.Nevertheless,the problem of low intrinsic electronic conductivity and energy density has limited the practical application of the materials.To address this issue,the relevant research team has successfully achieved remarkable research results through unremitting exploration and practical innovation.In this work,the crystal structure,ion migration mechanism and sodium storage mechanism of NVP cathode materials are systematically reviewed,with a focus on summarizing the latest progress of V-site doping modification research,classifying and exploring V-site doping from the perspectives of electronic structure,lattice strain and entropy,and briefly describing the optimization mechanism of V-site doping on electrochemical performance.In addition,the challenges and prospects for the future development of NVP cathode materials are presented,which are believed to provide new thinking for the design and development of high-performance NVP cathode materials and contribute to the large-scale application of sodium-ion batteries.
