Nitrogen fertilizers play a crucial role in enhancing crop productivity. However, the extensive use of synthetic recent years can disrupt balance soil nutrients, leading to deficiencies or toxicities other essential nutrients such as magnesium (Mg), manganese (Mn), and molybdenum (Mo). This imbalance interfere with nitrogen cycling processes, particularly affecting activity nitrogenase enzymes involved ammonium production.

Despite decades of work on aqueous lead (Pb) adsorption α-Fe2O3 (hematite) and α-Al2O3 (alumina), gaps between measurements modeling obscure molecular-level understanding. Achieving well-matched geometries theory experiment for mineral-water interfaces is a hurdle, as surface functional group type distribution must be accounted in determining mechanisms. Additionally, computational methods that can describe the substrate are often not appropriate to capture effects. Progress requires focusing well-studied relevant systems, such key facets (001), (012), (110) hematite alumina, ubiquitous contaminants Pb. In past, bulk-parameterized bond-valence principles were used rationalize Pb(II) trends. These approaches break down at surfaces, where flexible bonding environments adsorption-induced relaxations play critical role. Here, we adapt apply density (DFT) thermodynamics framework, integrating DFT-calculated energies with experimental data electrochemical principles, predict adsorption. Our model results trends across full set surfaces inner-sphere sorption (001) alumina varies from unfavorable weakly favorable range pH conditions. This aligns insights interacts through outer-sphere interactions. Extending Fe(II) adsorption, demonstrate coverage-dependent site preference, potentially explaining disorder overlayers grown by oxidative (001).

ZnO nanoparticles were produced using Morinda citrifolia fruit extract and evaluated for their performance in the removal of Congo red (CR) dye under visible light, as well antibacterial activity against different pathogenic strains. The photocatalyst was characterized according to crystallinity, surface elements morphology. Various factors related photocatalytic activity, namely contact time, dosage, initial CR concentration, pH, investigated. Under optimal conditions, a moderate loading achieved high degradation efficiency 95.23% within 60 min light irradiation, determined response methodology (RSM) coupled with face-centered design (CCF). Additionally, scavenger study confirmed that superoxide radicals (˙O2 -) holes (h+) major reactive species photodegradation CR. Furthermore, remarkable, highest inhibition zone measuring 20.7 mm Salmonella typhimurium. This provides promising approach developing highly efficient photocatalysts strong adsorption capabilities whilst also broadening application agents.
