Reticulated vitreous carbon as an electrode material
An illustrated review of reticulated vitreous carbon (RVC) as an electrode material is presented. Early uses of RVC were largely restricted to small-scale (<1 cm3) electroanalytical studies in research laboratories. RVC properties of a high ratio of surface area to volume and minimal reactivity over a wide range of process conditions, combined with low cost and easy handling, have resulted in a steady diversification of its applications both in research laboratories and in industry. The physical structure of RVC (in terms of pores per linear inch, strut length, strut thickness and area of the trigonal strut) is examined for 10, 30, 60 and 100 ppi (pores per linear inch) grades using scanning electron microscopy. The accurate measurement of these geometrical values presents both theoretical (in terms of definition of trigonal strut area, beginning and end of single strand) and practical problems (large differences in strut length and thickness in individual samples). Data are presented to show the relationships between geometrical properties. Applications include electroanalytical studies and sensors, metal ion removal, synthesis of organics and Fenton s reagent, H2O2 production and batteries/fuel cells

On an endpoint Kato-Ponce inequality
We prove that the L∞ end-point Kato-Ponce inequality (Leibniz rule) holds for the fractional Laplacian operators D3 = (-Δ)s/2, Js = (1-Δ) s/2, s > 0. This settles a conjecture by Grafakos, Maldonado and Naibo [7]. We also establish a family of new refined Kato-Ponce commutator estimates. Some of these inequalities are in borderline spaces.link_to_subscribed_fulltex
On Kato–Ponce and fractional Leibniz
We show that in the Kato–Ponce inequality Js(fg)−fJsgp ∂f∞ Js−1gp + Jsfp g∞, the Jsf term on the right-hand side can be replaced by Js−1∂f. This solves a question raised in Kato–Ponce [14]. We propose a new fractional Leibniz rule for Ds = (−Δ)s/ 2 and similar operators, generalizing the Kenig–Ponce–Vega estimate [15] to all s > 0. We also prove a family of generalized and refined Kato–Ponce type inequalities which include many commutator estimates as special cases. To showcase the sharpness of the estimates at various endpoint cases, we construct several counterexamples. In particular, we show that in the original Kato–Ponce inequality, the L∞-norm on the right-hand side cannot be replaced by the weaker BMO norm. Some divergence-free counterexamples are also included.</p
Geochemical and petrographic characterization of the Bella Rica hydrothermal gold mineralization (Ponce Enriquez, Ecuador)
Bella Rica is sited in the Ponce Enriquez mining district (south of Ecuador), one of the most important gold mining areas in Ecuador, active since 1980’s. Gold mesothermal mineralization is hosted within Cretaceous mafic volcanic rocks of Pallatanga Units (Pratt et al., 2005).
The high level of heavy metal(loid)s concentration (As, Cu, Cd, Zn, and Pb) in stream sediments and other matrixes (surface water, soil, and biological) has been discussed in several studies (e.g., Williams et al., 2000; Jiménez-Oyola et al., 2021). The presence of heavy metal(loid)s in the mining district has been considered as due to the superposition of geogenic sources and mining activity. Gold is recovered by leaching with cyanide and flotation in artisanal activity and by a combination of amalgamation with mercury in the illegal mining activity. Despite aforementioned environmental investigations, the studies on the characterization and origin of the Au mineralization are still limited.
With the aim of contributing to the regional geological background, in this study, we present new data on the geochemical and petrographic features of the hydrothermal gold mineralization in the Ponce Enriquez area. Detailed maps of the distribution of selected heavy metal(loid)s are provided. Furthermore, petrologic investigations are carried out with the aim to characterize temperatures and composition of hydrothermal fluids involved in the genesis of Ponce Enriquez ore deposit. These data can help to increase the regional geological knowledge and the promotion of the sustainable development of Ecuador metalliferous mineral sector.
