Toxic Tire Decontamination: Researchers Demonstrate Ability to Remove Toxic Particles from Used Tires
Evolution of heating performance, product distribution, and morphology in microwave pyrolysis of EOL tires. Credit: Nature Chemical Engineering (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s44286-024-00110-9 Tires are an essential part of daily life. Without these, our vehicles would simply be a mass of assembled parts, convenient to sit on but ineffective at getting us to our destination. While the usefulness of tires is undisputed,…

Scientists demonstrate advanced low-coherence BOCDR system using periodic pseudorandom modulation
This figure shows the results of distributed strain sensing over a length of approximately 100 m of optical fiber utilizing BOCDR with periodic pseudorandom modulation. The diagram above shows the structure of the sensing fiber, which includes two tightly wound 47-meter sections and a 10-centimeter taut section near the end. The middle plot shows the distributed Brillouin frequency shift along…
