Ce⁴⁺-doped nanometer ZnO powder was synthesized by so-l gel method. The microstructures and properties of the samples were characterized through XRD, UV-Vis and FTIR. The results indicated that the Ce⁴⁺ was successfully incorporated into ZnO, and the diameter of the nanometer was about 10.7nm. It induced the redshifting in the UV-Vis spectra. The photocatalytic activity of the samples was investigated using methylene blue (MB) as the model reaction under irradiation with ultraviolet light. The results showed that the doping of Ce⁴⁺ could increase the photocatalytic activities of ZnO nanopowders and that the best molar ratio of Ce⁴⁺ was n(Ce)/n(Zn) = 0.05, that the surfactant was sodium dodecyl sulfate, and that the nanometer ZnO was calcinated at 550 ℃ for 3 hours. Meanwhile, it inspected the effect of photocatalytic efficiency through the pH of MB, the amount of catalyst, and illumination time. The experimental results revealed that the initial mass concentration of MB was 10 mg/L, that the pH value was 7-8, that the dosage of Ce⁴⁺/ZnO photo-catalyst was 5 g/L, that the UV-irradiation time was 2 h, and that the removal rate of MB reached above 85%. Under the optimized conditions, the degradation rate of real dye wastewater was up to 87.67% and the removal efficiency of COD was 63.5%.

This research paper explores the influence of first-order chemical reactions on the sustainable properties of electrically conducting magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) fluids in a vertical channel with the unique characteristics of Jeffrey fluid flow. The mathematical model of MHD flow with Jeffrey fluid and chemical reaction incorporates the impacts of viscous dissipation, Joule heating, and a non-Newtonian fluid model with viscoelastic properties in the flow regions. The governing equations of the flow field were solved using the finite difference method, and the impacts of flow parameters on the flow characteristics were discussed numerically using a graphical representation. It’s revealed that increasing the Jeffrey parameter results in a decline in the velocity field profiles. Also, species concentration field profiles decline with higher values of the destruction chemical reaction parameter. The findings of this study have significant implications for various engineering applications, including energy generation, aerospace engineering, and material processing. Additionally, the inclusion of Jeffrey’s fluid flow introduces a viscoelastic component, enhancing the complexity of the fluid dynamics.

The analysis of the accumulation and export of nutrients by the cowpea crop is fundamental for a more sustainable fertilization program, because the definition of the doses of organic fertilizers based only on the estimated maximum yield does not guarantee the maintenance of soil fertility. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of fertilization with chicken manure on the productivity, accumulation and exportation of nutrients by the pods of cowpea. A randomized block design was used, with five doses of chicken manure (0; 5; 10; 20 and 40 t ha^-1) and four repetitions. The highest levels of P and Mg were found in the leaves with the application of 40 t ha^-1 of manure. The maximum pod length was 14.47 cm, estimated with the dose of 33.33 t ha^-1 of manure. The highest values of diameter, number of pods per plant and pod productivity were observed at the highest dose of manure applied. In relative terms, that is, total exported in relation to the total extracted by the aerial part, phosphorus is the nutrient most exported by the pods, on average 58%, followed by N (55%), K (43%), Mg (40%), S (38%) and Ca (17%). At the highest dose, although Ca accumulation occurred in large quantities (31.3 kg ha^-1), only 13% of it was exported by the pods. Fertilizing cowpea with chicken manure supplied essential nutrients and increased pod yield from 7.2 (no fertilization) to 16.3 t ha^-1 (fertilization with 40 t ha^-1 of chicken manure). The plant remains of the cowpea constitute an important source of nutrients, being obtained at the highest dose of manure applied (40 t ha^-1) the following amounts of macronutrients (kg ha^-1): N (51.4); P (5.1); K (27.6); Ca (27.1); Mg (8.2); S (5.1), which may return to the soil, with the incorporation of the plants.

"Accelerate the construction of a strong education country, strive to open up a new situation, and consolidate the foundation of the country's prosperity and strength." On May 29, 2023, General Secretary Xi Jinping stressed that education, as an important foundation for national development, should accelerate the pace of reform and innovation. As the cradle of talent training, colleges and universities should fully recognize the country's urgency for high-level talents, and further breakthroughs should be made in the reform and development of education and teaching. Textbook construction is an important measure to strengthen China's academic construction and promote the development of China's education. At present, it is still facing problems such as slow renewal speed, single form of expression and low utilization rate of achievements. Taking Z University as an example, this article briefly discusses some suggestions for the construction and reform of postgraduate textbooks in combination with the actual situation.
