Facile fabrication of sulfonated porous yeast carbon microspheres through a hydrothermal method and their application for the removal of cationic dye.

Water pollution containing dyes become increasingly serious environmental problem with the acceleration of urbanization and industrialization process. Renewable adsorbents for cationic dye wastewater treatment are becoming an obstacle because of the difficulty of desorbing the dye from the adsorbent surface after adsorption. To overcome this dilemma, herein, we report a hydrothermal method to fabricate sulfonic acid modified yeast carbon microspheres (SA/YCM). Different characterization techniques like scanning electron microscopy, FTIR spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction have been used to test the SA/YCM. Decorated with sulfonic acid group, the modified yeast carbon microspheres possess excellent ability of adsorbing positively charged materials. The removal rate of Methyl blue (MB) by renewable adsorbent SA/YCM can reach 85.3% when the concentration is 500 mg/L. The SA/YCM regenerated by HCl showed excellent regeneration adsorption capacity (78.1%) after five cycles of adsorption-desorption regeneration experiment. Adsorption isotherm and kinetic behaviors of SA/YCM for methylene blue dyes removal were studied and fitted to different existing models. Owing to the numerous sulfonic acid groups on the surface, the SA/YCM showed prominent reusability after regeneration under acidic conditions, which could withstand repeated adsorption-desorption cycles as well as multiple practical applications.

Resistance training in soccer based on teamwork and the differences between chinese and western sports culture / Treinamento de força no futebol baseado no trabalho em equipe e nas diferenças entre a cultura esportiva chinesa e ocidental / Entrenamiento de fuerza en el fútbol basado en el trabajo en equipo y en las diferencias entre la cultura deportiva china y la occidental

ABSTRACT Introduction Soccer is a comprehensive sport that integrates collective, tactical, emotional, and rational skills, depending not only on individual skills and tactics but also on a sense of diligently shared struggle, the ability for unity and cooperation, and the spirit of sharing achievements and defeats. Objective Study the differences between Chinese and Western sports culture, exploring the soccer training method based on teamwork. Methods The height, weight, experience, and age of 6 soccer players were drawn and categorized before the experiment, and a battery of physical tests was performed before the experiment. The athletes were subjected to functional strength training for six weeks. After the training was completed, the data was re-measured and cataloged for analysis. Results Functional strength training can effectively improve athletes' physical quality and baseline performance to improve their competitive performance. Conclusion Currently, functional strength training plays a good role in promoting college soccer teams. Therefore, coaches should provide functional strength training for college soccer teams. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigating treatment outcomes.

RESUMO Introdução O futebol é um esporte abrangente que integra habilidades coletivas, táticas, emocionais e racionais, dependendo não apenas de habilidades e táticas individuais, mas também um senso de luta diligentemente compartilhada, a capacidade de unidade e cooperação, e o espírito de dividir conquistas e derrotas. Objetivo Estudar as diferenças entre a cultura esportiva chinesa e a ocidental, explorando o método de treinamento do futebol baseado no trabalho em equipe. Métodos A altura, peso, tempo de experiência e idade de 6 jogadores de futebol foram sorteados e categorizados antes do experimento, uma bateria de testes físicos foi efetuada antes do experimento. Os atletas foram sujeitados à treinamento de força funcional por 6 semanas. Após a conclusão do treinamento, os dados foram aferidos novamente e catalogados para análise. Resultados O treinamento funcional de força pode efetivamente melhorar a qualidade física e o desempenho basal dos atletas, de modo a melhorar seu desempenho competitivo. Conclusão Atualmente, o treinamento de força funcional desempenha um bom papel na promoção das equipes de futebol universitário, portanto, os treinadores devem fornecer o exercício físico funcional para as equipes de futebol universitário. Nível de evidência II; Estudos terapêuticos - investigação dos resultados do tratamento.

Novel fabrication of hydrophobic/oleophilic human hair fiber for efficient oil/water separation through one-pot dip-coating synthesis route.

Frequent oil spill accidents and industrial wastewater discharge has always been one of the most severe worldwide environmental problems. To cope with this problem, many fluorine-containing and high-cost materials with superwettability have been extensively applied for oil-water separation, which hinders its large-scale application. In this work, a novel human hair fiber (HHF)-polymerized octadecylsiloxane (PODS) fiber was fabricated with a facile one-pot dip-coating synthesis approach, inspired by the self-assembly performance and hydrophobicity of OTS modification. The benefits of prominent hydrophobic/lipophilic behavior lie in the low surface energy, and a rough PODS coating was rationally adhered on the surface of HHF. Driven solely by gravity and capillary force, the HHF-PODS showed excellent oil/water separation efficiency (> 99.0%) for a wide range of heavy and light oil/water mixtures. In addition, HHF-PODS demonstrated durability toward different harsh environments like alkaline, acid, and salty solutions.
