RESUMO
Sensitive and rapid identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) at ppm level with complex composition is vital in various fields ranging from respiratory diagnosis to environmental safety. Herein, we demonstrate a SERS gas sensor with size-selective and multiplexed identification capabilities for VOCs by executing the pre-enrichment strategy. In particular, the macro-mesoporous structure of graphene aerogel and micropores of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) significantly improved the enrichment capacity (1.68 mmol/g for toluene) of various VOCs near the plasmonic hotspots. On the other hand, molecular MOFs-based filters with different pore sizes could be realized by adjusting the ligands to exclude undesired interfering molecules in various detection environments. Combining these merits, graphene/AuNPs@ZIF-8 aerogel gas sensor exhibited outstanding label-free sensitivity (up to 0.1 ppm toluene) and high stability (RSD=14.8%, after 45 days storage at room temperature for 10 cycles) and allowed simultaneous identification of multiple VOCs in a single SERS measurement with high accuracy (error < 7.2%). We visualize that this work will tackle the dilemma between sensitivity and detection efficiency of gas sensors and will inspire the design of next-generation SERS technology for selective and multiplexed detection of VOCs.
RESUMO
The impedance matching and high loss capabilities of composites with homogeneous distribution are limited owing to high addition and lack of structural design. Developing composites with heterogeneous distribution can achieve strong and wide electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption. However, challenges such as complex design and unclear absorption mechanisms still exist. Herein, a novel composite with a heterogeneous distribution gradient is successfully constructed via MOF derivatives Co@ nitrogen-doped carbon (Co@NC) anchored on carbon foam (CF) matrix (MDCF). Notably, the concentration of MOF can easily control the gradient structure. In particular, the morphologies of MOF derivatives on the surface of CF undergo a transition from the collapse of the inner layer to the integrity of the outer layer, accompanied by a continuous reduction in the size of Co nanoparticles. Correspondingly, enhanced interface polarization from the core-shell of Co@NC and good impedance matching of MDCF can be obtained. The optimized MDCF exhibits the minimum reflection loss of -68.18 dB at 2.01 mm and effective absorption bandwidth covering the entire X-band. Moreover, MDCF exhibits lightweight characteristics, excellent compressive strength, and low radar cross-section reduction. This work highlights the immense potential of composites with heterogeneous distribution for achieving high-performance EM wave absorption.
RESUMO
Two-dimensional transition metal carbon/nitrides (MXenes) are promising candidates to revolutionize next-generation wearable sensors as high-performance surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates. However, low sensitivity of pure MXene nanosheets and weak binding force or uncontrolled in situ growth of plasmonic nanoparticles on hybrid MXene composites limit their progress toward universal and reliable sensors. Herein, we designed and manufactured a highly sensitive, structurally stable wearable SERS sensor by in situ fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures on the flexible TiVC membranes via the maximization of chemically reducing sites using alkaline treatment. DFT calculations and experimental characterization demonstrated that the hydroxyl functional groups on the surface of MXenes can facilitate the reduction of metal precursors and the nucleation of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and can be covalently attached to AuNPs. Thus, the fabricated flexible TiVC-OH-Au sensor satisfied the rigorous mechanical requirements for wearable sensors. In addition, combining the electromagnetic (EM) enhancement from dense AuNPs formed by the activation of nucleation sites and charge transfer (CT) between target molecule and substrate induced by the abundant DOS near the Fermi level of TiVC, the fabricated sensor exhibits ultrasensitivity, long-term stability, good signal repeatability, and excellent mechanical durability. Moreover, the proof-of-concept application of the wearable SERS sensor in sweat sensing was demonstrated to monitor the content of nicotine, methotrexate, nikethamide, and 6-acetylmorphine in sweat at the molecular level, which was an important step toward the universality and practicality of the wearable sensing technology.

Developing substrates that combine sensitivity and signal stability is a major challenge in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) research. Herein, we present a flexible triple-enhanced Raman Scattering MXene/Au nanocubes (AuNCs) sensor fabricated by selective filtration of Ti3C2Tx MXene/AuNCs hybrid on the Ti3C2Tx MXene membrane and subsequent treatment with 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluoro-octyltriethoxysilane (FOTS). The resultant superhydrophobic MXene/AuNCs-FOTS membrane not only provides the SERS substrate with environmental stability, but also imparts analyte enrichment to enhance the sensitivity (LOD = 1 × 10-14 M) and reliability (RSD = 6.41%) for Rhodamine 6G (R6G) molecules owing to the attenuation of the coffee ring effect. Moreover, the triple enhancement mechanism of combining plasmonic coupling enhancement from plasmonic coupling (EM) of nearby AuNCs at lateral and longitudinal direction of MXene/AuNCs-FOTS membrane, charge transfer (CT) from Ti3C2Tx MXene and target molecules and analyte enrichment function provides the substrate with excellent SERS performance (EF = 3.19 × 109), and allows efficient quantification of biomarkers in urine. This work could provide new insights into MXenes as building blocks for high-performance substrates and fill existing gaps in SERS techniques.

Fabrication of highly elastic three-dimensional aerogel adsorbents with outstanding adsorption capacities is a long pursuit for the treatment of industrial contaminated water. In this work, a magnetic reduced graphene oxide (rGO)/Fe3O4/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) aerogel material was constructed by the electrostatic attraction between the negatively charged GO and positively charged CNTs following a one-pot water bath treatment. The as-synthesized aerogel demonstrated high compressive stress (28.4 kPa) and lower density (24.11 mg/cm3) with exceptional adsorption capacities for versatile adsorbates which are attributed to CNTs and magnetic Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The effect of pH, initial concentration of adsorbates (dyes, Cd (ÐÐ) ions, organic solvents, and pump oil), content of CNTs and cyclic times on the adsorption capacities of the aerogel were investigated in detail. Furthermore, from simulation, the adsorption kinetics, and thermodynamics of the aerogel for adsorbates were more satisfied by endothermic quasi-second-order kinetic model with characteristic physical adsorption. Thus, the optimized rGO/Fe3O4/CNTs-10 aerogel adsorbent can be used as a powerful and versatile tool to deal with contaminated industrial or domestic wastewater.
RESUMO
High sensitivity, good signal repeatability, and facile fabrication of flexible surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrates are common pursuits of researchers for the detection of probe molecules in a complex environment. However, fragile adhesion between the noble-metal nanoparticles and substrate material, low selectivity, and complex fabrication process on a large scale limit SERS technology for wide-ranging applications. Herein, we propose a scalable and cost-effective strategy to a fabricate sensitive and mechanically stable flexible Ti3C2Tx MXene@graphene oxide/Au nanoclusters (MG/AuNCs) fiber SERS substrate from wet spinning and subsequent in situ reduction processes. The use of MG fiber provides good flexibility (114 MPa) and charge transfer enhancement (chemical mechanism, CM) for a SERS sensor and allows further in situ growth of AuNCs on its surface to build highly sensitive hot spots (electromagnetic mechanism, EM), promoting the durability and SERS performance of the substrate in complex environments. Therefore, the formed flexible MG/AuNCs-1 fiber exhibits a low detection limit of 1 × 10-11 M with a 2.01 × 109 enhancement factor (EFexp), signal repeatability (RSD = 9.80%), and time retention (remains 75% after 90 days of storage) for R6G molecules. Furthermore, the l-cysteine-modified MG/AuNCs-1 fiber realized the trace and selective detection of trinitrotoluene (TNT) molecules (0.1 µM) via Meisenheimer complex formation, even by sampling the TNT molecules at a fingerprint or sample bag. These findings fill the gap in the large-scale fabrication of high-performance 2D materials/precious-metal particle composite SERS substrates, with the expectation of pushing flexible SERS sensors toward wider applications.

Superpixel decomposition could reconstruct an image through meaningful fragments to extract regional features, thus boosting the performance of advanced computer vision tasks. To further optimize the computational efficiency as well as segmentation quality, a novel framework is proposed to generate superpixels from the perspective of hybridizing two existing linear clustering frameworks. Instead of conventional grid sampling seeds for region clustering, a fast convergence strategy is first introduced to center the final superpixel clusters, which is based on an accelerated convergence strategy. Superpixels are then generated from a center-fixed online average clustering, which adopts region growing to label all pixels in an efficient one-pass manner. The experiments verify that the integration of this two-step implementation could generate a synergistic effect and that it becomes more well-rounded than each single method. Compared with other state-of-the-art superpixel algorithms, the proposed framework achieves a comparable overall performance in terms of segmentation accuracy, spatial compactness and running efficiency; moreover, an application on image segmentation verifies its facilitation for traffic scene analysis.

Based on the large specific surface area and excellent adsorption potential of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) and zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) materials, a GQDs@ZIF-8 composite was constructed to achieve optimal matching of the microstructure and to acquire efficient adsorption of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). GQDs and ZIF-8 were synthesized and then compounded by the solution co-deposition method to obtain GQDs@ZIF-8 composites. GQDs were uniformly decorated on the surface of the ZIF-8 metal-organic framework (MOF), effectively restraining the agglomeration, improving the thermal stability of ZIF-8 and forming abundant active sites. Thus, the VOC removal percentage and adsorption capacity of the GQDs@ZIF-8 composites were significantly improved. Toluene and ethyl acetate were chosen as simulated VOC pollutants to test the adsorption performance of the composites. The results showed that, after the addition of GQDs, the adsorption property of GQDs@ZIF-8 composites for toluene and ethyl acetate was obviously improved, with maximum adsorption capacities of 552.31 mg/g and 1408.59 mg/g, respectively, and maximum removal percentages of 80.25% and 93.78%, respectively, revealing extremely high adsorption performance. Compared with raw ZIF-8, the maximum adsorption capacities of the composites for toluene and ethyl acetate were increased by 53.82 mg/g and 104.56 mg/g, respectively. The kinetics and isotherm study revealed that the adsorption processes were in accordance with the pseudo-first-order kinetic model and the Freundlich isotherm model. The thermodynamic results indicated that the adsorption process of the GQDs@ZIF-8 composites was a spontaneous, endothermic and entropy increase process. This study provides a new way to explore MOF-based adsorption materials with high adsorption capacity which have broad application prospects in VOC removal fields.
RESUMO
Based on the increasing application requirements for the efficient adsorption of wastewater pollutants, graphene oxide-carbon nanotube/activated carbon (GO-CNT/AC) composites are constructed from the optimal microstructure matching of GO, CNTs, and AC materials by solution impregnation and freeze-drying methods. Three-dimensional structures with nano-micro hierarchical pores are established, with GO and CNTs uniformly dispersed on the AC surface, effectively restrain the agglomeration. The added CNTs played a "spring" role, supporting the gap between the GO sheets and AC matrix. Meanwhile, stable links are formed between GO, CNTs, and AC, realizing the synergistic matching of the microstructure, which provides abundant active absorption sites beneficial for improving the adsorption performance. The influences of the CNT contents, adsorbent amounts, methylene blue (MB) concentrations, and pH values on the adsorption property of GO-CNT/AC composites are systematically investigated. The results show that when the pH value of the MB solution is 13, the CNT concentration is 3 mg/mL and the MB concentration is 200 mg/L, the adsorption property of the composite is the best, with an adsorption capacity of 190.8 mg/g and a removal percentage of 95.4%. Compared with the raw AC, the adsorption capacity and removal percentage of the composites are increased by 73.9% and 72.8%, respectively. The GO-CNT/AC composites exhibit excellent cyclic adsorption performance, with a cyclic stability of 91.8% after six rounds of adsorption-desorption cycles. The kinetic analysis shows that the adsorption process conforms to the PSO kinetic model. By fitting of the IPD model, the adsorption mechanisms of the GO-CNT/AC composites are divided into two adsorption stages and described respectively. This study provides a new way to achieve highly efficient adsorption of pollutants in wastewater.
RESUMO
In view of the good adsorption properties of graphene and carbon foam, they were combined to achieve the optimal matching of microstructures. Taking mesophase pitch as a raw material, pitch-based carbon foam was prepared by the self-foaming method. Graphene gel was prepared as the second phase to composite with the carbon foam matrix; graphene-modified, pitch-based carbon foam composites were finally obtained. Graphene gel was dispersed in the rich pore structure of carbon foam to improve its agglomeration and the porosity, and the active sites of the composite were further increased; the adsorption properties and mechanical properties of the composites were also significantly improved. The microstructure and morphology of the composites were studied by SEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy; the compressive property and porosity were also tested. Methylene blue (MB) solution was used to simulate a dye solution for the adsorption test, and the influence of the composite properties and MB solution on the adsorption property was studied. Results showed that the compressive strength of the composite was 13.5 MPa, increased by 53.41%, and the porosity was 58.14%, increased by 24.15%, when compared to raw carbon foam. When the mass of the adsorbent was 150 mg, the initial concentration of the MB solution was 5 mg/L, and the pH value of the MB solution was 11; the graphene-modified carbon foam composites showed the best adsorption effect, with an adsorption rate of 96.3% and an adsorption capacity of 144.45 mg/g. Compared with the raw carbon foam, the adsorption rate and adsorption capacity of the composites were increased by 158.18% and 93.50%, respectively.
RESUMO
The graphitization degree is of great importance for determining the electromagnetic (EM) wave attenuation loss behavior. The conductive loss is considered to be the mechanism resulting from tailoring the graphitization degree. There is a lack of in-depth research on the dipole polarization caused by defects and functional groups and the interface polarization caused by graphite/amorphous carbon. Herein, lightweight carbon foam (CF) bulk derived from mesophase pitch was prepared to clarify the effect of the graphitization degree systematically. The results demonstrate that with an increase graphitization degree, the interfacial polarization improves and dipole polarization decreases. The synergistic effect of conduction loss and dipole and interfacial polarization dominates the impedance matching and further changes the EM loss behavior of CFs. Particularly, the minimum reflection loss is - 16.69 dB and effective absorption bandwidth is 3.63 GHz, the EM interference shielding effectiveness attains 35.13 dB and the compressive strength is up to 11.73 MPa when the optimal graphitization degree is achieved. Therefore, this work elucidates the effect of the interface polarization of graphite/amorphous carbon, thus providing a valuable insight into the design of advanced carbon-based materials for EM wave absorption and shielding.
RESUMO
Strong absorption and large bandwidth are two contributors to materials' absorbing performance. In this work, a series of multi-element core-shell magnetic nano-particle composite layered graphene absorbing materials CoFe2O4@C/rGO (CCr) were prepared by adjusting carbon shell thickness. The CCr at a low thickness achieved strong microwave absorption and a wide effective absorption bandwidth. Not only the core-shell structure of the magnetic nanoparticle CoFe2O4@C (CFO@C) increases the interface loss, but both the coating carbon shell and the core CoFe2O4 (CFO) are beneficial to improve impedance matching. Due to the synergistic effect of the dielectric and magnetic properties of graphene and ferrite, CCr possessed high absorption performance, and its minimum reflection loss reached (RLmin) -52.5â¯dB when the thickness was only 2â¯mm. At the same time, the effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) was 5.68â¯GHz when the thickness was only 1.7â¯mm. The chemically stable core-shell dielectric nanocomposite provided a new solution for preparing materials with excellent chemical structure and high absorbing properties.
RESUMO
Covalent bond usually ensures a stable connection between nonmetallic atoms. However, the traditional reflux method usually requires the construction of complex instruments and equipment with tedious steps to ensure airtightness and reaction stability. In this work, an advanced method is adopted to bind core-shell CoFe2O4@PPy and rGO tightly via the aid of 2-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)ethanamine (PyEA), dispense with a high-temperature environment or protective gas. Cobalt ferrite core and polypyrrole shell collaborate to approach suitable magnetic and conduction loss, while reduced graphene oxide usually provides a stable sheet structure for interface multiple reflections, and replenish the insufficient dielectric loss. The filled biscuit-shaped covalently bond CoFe2O4@PPy-rGO has a fantastically broad absorption bandwidth of 13.12 GHz under the thickness of 3.6 mm, together with a minimum reflection loss of -50.1 dB at 6.56 GHz, achieving both impedance matching and attenuation matching, and effectively responding to all electromagnetic waves in the X and Ku bands. Thus, the covalently bonded CoFe2O4@PPy-rGO has potential application in broadband absorption.
RESUMO
In order to commit to the core concept of energy saving and emission reduction, the preparation of absorbing materials with sustainable development, light weight, strong absorption and wide absorption bandwidth has become an urgent problem that should be solved. As a natural product from nature, ubiquitous bamboo is combined with metal-organic framework on its surface through a simple chemical activation method is demostrated to be an effective method to prepare a composite absorbing material with amazing electromagnetic wave absorption. The prepared bamboo fiber/CoNi alloy (CN-ABF) reaches a minimum reflection loss of -75.19 dB at 11.12 GHz when the thickness is 2.66 mm, and the corresponding bandwidth is 4.56 GHz. The prepared CN-ABF greatly enhances the multi-polarity, dielectric loss, magnetic loss and impedance matching. Sustainable absorbing materials prepared by using biomass as a dielectric carbon-based recombined magnetic metal provide a good research strategy for improving the absorbing performance of materials.
RESUMO
Biomass, as a continuously available raw material, is widely used to produce hard carbon. However, many researchers have ignored the natural special morphology of biomass and the influence of oxygen on the sodium storage performance. Here, we use the cilia of the setaria viridis as the precursor to obtain a fiber-like oxygen-doped hierarchical porous hard carbon (SVC). The sodium storage mechanism of SVC is studied by controlling the pyrolysis temperature. Studies have shown that the natural fibrous structure and vertical holes of SVC can provide channels for the rapid penetration of electrolyte. The appropriate nanocrystal size affords commodious circumstances for the insertion of Na+. More importantly, the increase in carbonization temperature will change the bonding mode of carbon and oxygen, promote the rupture of single bonds and retain the existence of double bonds, which is beneficial to the improvement of coulombic efficiency and reversible capacity. The hybrid sodium storage mechanism composed of insertion behavior and capacitance behavior promotes SVC to have higher reversible capacity (285.4 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A g-1) and excellent rate performance (90.7 mAh g-1 at 5 A g-1). This research provides some new ideas for the study of hard carbon.

Different plants can be used to prepare nanoparticles. This is termed as green technology. It is one of the best ecofriendly and low-cost method for the preparation of nanoparticles which has no harmful effects. PbO nanoparticles were prepared by green method using leaf extract of Datura Sternum plants. The preparation of Lead oxide was confirmed by color change from colorless to yellowish brown. UV-Visible peak obtained at 250 nm and XRD study clarified the formation of PbO NPs. These PbO nanoparticles were then applied for the preparation of Nano Composite Polymer Membranes (nCPMs). PbO-PVC nCPMs were prepared based on polyvinyl chloride (PVC) polymer and PbO filler with the help of solution casting method, using cyclohexanone as a solvent. Different percentage (5-35%) of filler was used. The physiochemical parameters studied were viscosity, water uptake (WU), perpendicular swelling (DT) in deionized water, density, porosity (ε), morphology, ion adsorption capacity (IAC) and electrical conductivity (σ). The values of all these parameters except viscosity and conductivity were increased on increasing filler percentage. Viscosity of the nCPMs solution was decreased from 171 to 46.21. The conductivity of nCPMs was first increased upto 25% filler and then decreased. The deformation in PVC structure was increased on enhancing PbO amount. The values of Density, porosity, water uptake, DT and IAC were found in range 1.15-5.02, 0.50-0.87, 72.01-141.30, 0.012-0.11, and 3.13 × 107-8.60 × 107 respectively.

The enhancement of thermally conductive performances for lightweight thermal interface materials is a long-term effort. The superb micro-structures of the thermal conductivity enhancer have an important impact on increasing thermal conductivity and decreasing thermal resistance. Here, globular flower-like reduced graphene oxide (GFRGO) is designed by the self-assembly of reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sheets, under the assistance of a binder via the spray-assisted method for silicone-based spherical alumina (S-Al2O3) composites. When the total filler content is fixed at 84 wt%, silicone-based S-Al2O3 composites with 1 wt% of GFRGO exhibit a much more significant increase in thermal conductivity, reduction in thermal resistance and reinforcement in thermal management capability than that of without graphene. Meanwhile, GFRGO is obviously superior to that of their RGO counterparts. Compared with RGO sheets, GFRGO spheres which are well-distributed between the S-Al2O3 fillers and well-dispersed in the matrix can build three-dimensional and isotropic thermally conductive networks more effectively with S-Al2O3 in the matrix, and this minimizes the thermal boundary resistance among components, owning to its structural characteristics. As with RGO, the introduction of GFRGO is helpful when decreasing the density of silicone-based S-Al2O3 composites. These attractive results suggest that the strategy opens new opportunities for fabricating practical, high-performance and light-weight filler-type thermal interface materials.
RESUMO
In this study, feather keratin/polyvinyl alcohol/tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (FK/PVA/Tris) bionanocomposite films containing graphene oxide (GO) (0.5, 1, 2, and 3 wt%) or graphene (0.5, 1, 2, and 3 wt%) were prepared using a solvent casting method. The scanning electron microscopy results indicated that the dispersion of GO throughout the film matrix was better than that of graphene. The successful formation of new hydrogen bonds between the film matrix and GO was confirmed through the use of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. The tensile strength, elastic modulus, and initial degradation temperature of the films increased, whereas the total soluble mass, water vapor permeability, oxygen permeability, and light transmittance decreased following GO or graphene incorporation. In summary, nanoblending is an effective method to promote the application of FK/PVA/Tris-based blend films in the packaging field.
RESUMO
Research based on the full water splitting via heterogenous semiconducting photocatalyst is a significant characteristic nevertheless challenging for determining the energy and environmental crises. With respect to this, a photocatalytic water splitting by visible light through heterojunction semiconductors has been anticipated as a route to the sustainable energy. For the first time, we integrate a potential conjugated donor-acceptor (DA) co-monomer such as 2, 3-dichloroquinoxaline (DCQ) within the structure of polymeric carbon nitride (PCN) by a facile one-pot co-polymerization process. The DCQ which is acting as an organic motif that simulates a nucleophilic attack on the hosting PCN semiconductor which extends into a long chain of the polymer having enormous surface area and remarkable photocatalytic activity for H2 and O2 evolution as compared to the parental CNU. The supremacy of molecular geometry with DA ratio is effectively studied by absorbent, calculated band gap and migration of electrons on the photocatalytic performance of as-synthesized CNU-DCQx co-polymer. The density functional theory (DFT) calculation deliver supplementary evidence for the positive incorporation of DCQ in to the PCN matrix with reduced band gap upon copolymerization. Further, the hydrogen evolution rate (HER) for pure CNU with 14.2⯵mol/h while for CNU-DCQ18.0 it is estimated at 124.9⯵mol/h which remarkably fueled almost eight times more than blank sample. Similarly, the oxygen evolution rate (OER) analysis indicates the production 0.2⯵mol/h (visible) and 1.5⯵mol/h (non-visible) for CNU. However, the OER of copolymerized CNU-DCQ18.0 is found to be 1.9⯵mol/h (visible) and 12.8⯵mol/h (non-visible) which almost nine times higher than parental CNU. Hence, the output of this work reflects as an important step on the way to tailor-designed and elucidate the promising role of D-π-A system for the rational motifs of productive photocatalysts for forthcoming request.
RESUMO
A flexible filter paper based composite electrode was prepared via the convenient one-step synthesis of silver doped graphene for the first time, followed by in-situ polymerization of aniline monomers. Using L-ascorbic acid for simultaneous reduction of grapheme oxide and silver nitrate, we provided a new and green method to prepare graphene hybrid sheets without toxicity. It was found that the as-fabricated hybrid electrode formed a three-dimensional porous architecture, which not only increased the specific surface area of composite, but also facilitated the ion diffusion of the electrolyte. In addition, according to the tests of electrochemical performances, the flexible hybrid electrode subsequently exhibited exceptional specific capacitance of 437.3 F/g, energy density of 1133.5 W·h/kg and power density of 88.8 kW/kg, respectively. Meanwhile, the as-prepared hybrid demonstrated a good cycling stability with only 10.99% specific capacitance deterioration after 5000 times of cycling. This preparation technology presented here shows great potential for the development and application of wearable and portable energy storage devices, particularly for flexible supercapacitors. Moreover, this study puts forward a general, simple and low-cost route of fabricating a novel flexible electrode on a large scale, eventually for environmental protection.
