The wastewater discharge techniques used by Ethiopia's textile sector do not comply with the national discharge standard. Because the discharge of inadequately treated or untreated textile effluent into the environment is becoming more frequent. Thus, minimizing this trend's harm to the environment requires using the best wastewater treatment technology. Coagulation is considered one of the most effective methods for treating textile wastewaters, which technically need to have a natural or artificial coagulant added to eliminate dangerous pollutants. Nonetheless, criticism has been leveled against the use of chemical coagulants due to their serious disadvantages. This has led to an interest in substituting natural materials for chemical coagulants. The main objective of this study was to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of various powders and <i>Moringa</i> seed cactus pad powders when employed as a natural coagulant to clean up textile effluent. <i>Moringa</i> seeds and cactus pad consist of proteins (cationic and dimeric) which help in neutralizing and absorbing colloidal charges in water containing suspended solids. To examine the impacts of various operating parameters, including coagulant dose, pH, and mixing time, as well as the ideal coagulation conditions, experiments were conducted using a jar testing system. The ideal parameters were pH 4, 5 g/l of coagulant, 40 min of mixing time, 2 min of fast mixing at 100 rpm, 40 min of gradual mixing at 40 rpm, and 30 min of settling time.

Reporting waste in quantitative terms holds significance in emphasizing its environmental impacts while calculating the cost of waste is crucial in revealing the cost incurred by waste generation for production companies. This study aims to analyse MFCA from the perspective of companies operating in the same region but utilizing different cost accounting systems. By examining two cases side by side, it is aimed to identify similarities and differences in practices. This paper further investigates potential challenges in implementing MFCA through an analysis of two companies: one employing a process costing system and the other employing a job order costing system.

The results of Case Study 1 showed that the costs of products and material losses are 92.90 % and 7.10 %, respectively.

Motivated by their excellent properties, we investigate the physical characteristics of two lead-free halide perovskites, TlMCl<sub>3</sub> (M = Ge, Sn), under hydrostatic pressure. This paper explores the pressure-induced semiconductor-to-metal phase transition in halide perovskites TlMCl<sub>3</sub> (M = Ge, Sn), focusing on their optoelectronic and mechanical properties. Using density functional theory (DFT), the study investigates structural, electronic, optical, and mechanical changes under hydrostatic pressures up to 6.5 GPa. Both TlGeCl<sub>3</sub> and TlSnCl<sub>3</sub> maintain a cubic perovskite structure, but exhibit decreasing lattice parameters and unit cell volumes with increased pressure. Electronic analyses reveal a transition from semiconducting to metallic states for both materials under pressure: TlGeCl<sub>3</sub>'s band gap collapses to 0 eV at 6 GPa and TlSnCl<sub>3</sub> at 6.5 GPa according to TB-mbj, with GGA-PBE predicting transitions at 5 GPa for TlGeCl<sub>3</sub> and 3 GPa for TlSnCl<sub>3</sub>. This transition is confirmed through partial density of states (PDOS) and band structure calculations. The SOC effect reduces the bandgap in TlMCl<sub>3</sub> (M = Ge, Sn), boosting their optoelectronic application potential. Enhanced dielectric constants and refractive indices under pressure improve their efficiency in solar cells and LEDs by reducing carrier recombination and strengthening photon-electron interactions. Their high transparency, UV reflectivity, and increased absorption and conductivity under pressure make them suitable for UV coatings, optical filters, and advanced optoelectronic devices. Mechanical analyses show improved stiffness and ductility, with TlSnCl<sub>3</sub> demonstrating excellent machinability. The pressure-enhanced ductility of TlMCl<sub>3</sub> (M = Ge, Sn) makes it suitable for flexible electronics, wearable devices, and robust solar cells. Furthermore, their outstanding photovoltaic potential is driven by large optical absorption and high charge carrier mobility, aided by their small effective masses.</p>","PeriodicalId":12894,"journal":{"name":"Heliyon","volume":"11 4","pages":"e42603"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11872485/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143541130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specimens were collected by gillnets of various stretched mesh sizes. The gut contents were analyzed using frequency of occurrences and volumetric methods. A total of 915 specimens were collected; of which 605 (66.12 %) guts contained food. The most frequently occurring prey items were (72.72 %), phytoplankton (66.77 %), detritus (66.77 %), and macrophyte (39 %). Volumetrically, zooplankton (36.27 %), phytoplankton (31.41 %), macrophyte (15.08 %), and detritus (14.81 %) were most important. Frequency occurrences of phytoplankton and zooplankton varied significantly <math><mrow><mo>(</mo> <msup><mi>X</mi> <mn>2</mn></msup> <mspace></mspace> <mtext>test</mtext> <mo>,</mo> <mi>p</mi> <mo><</mo> <mn>0.05</mn></mrow> </math> ) between dry and wet months. The volumetric contribution of phytoplankton, zooplankton, macrophytes, and detritus varied significantly (<i>U</i> test, p < 0.05) in dry and wet months. Schoner Diet Overlap Index revealed there were no significant dietary shifts between juveniles and adults. Based on the result of gut contents; <i>C. carpio</i> showed omnivorous feeding behavior. This investigation is important to understanding the prey-predator relationship and conserving the prey types for <i>C. carpio</i> optimum production.</p>","PeriodicalId":12894,"journal":{"name":"Heliyon","volume":"11 4","pages":"e42596"},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2025-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11872494/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143541338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
