Rare Earths Recovery Using ILs and ILs
Ionic liquids (ILs), or room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs), are a class of chemicals consisting of ions that maintain a liquid state below 100 °C. ILs serve as the basis of deep eutectic solvents (DESs), which formed a new class of chemicals characterized as being formed by mixtures of components of a eutectic, with the resulting product presenting a melting point lower than the values presented by the pure components. The presence of these rare earths in different wastes varies for each element, and it seems to be difficult to establish a fixed concentration for each element.

Extracellular Matrix (ECM)
In tissues and organs, the extracellular matrix (ECM) is an essential extracellular element that surrounds cells, characterised by its sophisticated nanoarchitecture. It is a highly hydrated structure composed of cell-secreted proteins (e.g., collagen, fibronectin, elastin, etc.), macromolecules (e.g., polysaccharides, hyaluronan, glycosaminoglycans—GAGs—and proteoglycans—PGs), and specialised soluble factors (e.g., ions, growth factor, cytokines, and hormones).

Chemistry of Hypecoum Alkaloids
Genus Hypecoum Tourn. ex L. belongs to the poppy family Papaveraceae and comprises about 19 species occurring in Europe, Northern Africa and Asia. Hypecoum species have been widely used in traditional medicine as antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory remedies. The effects are associated with the biologically and pharmacologically active isoquinoline alkaloids in them such as protopines, protoberberines, benzophenanthridines, aporphines, simple isoquinolines, secoberbines, spirobenzylisoquinolines and others.

Health-Promoting Effects of Bioactive Compounds from Endophytic Fungi
The study examines the intricate relationship between plants and the endophytic fungi inhabiting their tissues. These fungi harmoniously coexist with plants, forming a distinct symbiotic connection that has caught scientific attention due to its potential implications for plant health and growth. The diverse range of bioactive compounds produced by these fungi holds significant promise for human health.

Zirconium Carbide for Hypersonic Applications
At ultra-high temperatures, resilient, durable, stable material choices are limited. While Carbon/Carbon (C/C) composites (carbon fibers and carbon matrix phases) are the materials of choice, zirconium carbide (ZrC) provides an option in hypersonic environments and specifically in wing leading edge (WLE) applications.

Several Organic Pollutants Dyes
The increase in economic activities and the industrialization of countries have caused the growth of pollution created by waste and sewage. In particular, the textile industry produces large amounts of liquid contaminants due to the large amounts of water employed during the production of fabrics. In addition, dyes are another category of organic compound used in many industries, such as pharmaceuticals and rubber making.

Flash-Boiling Atomization
Flash-boiling atomization is a method by which a liquid is brought into a superheated state, such as vigorous boiling, in a short timeframe while the bubbles grow considerably fast. This leads to the disintegration of the continuous liquid into tiny droplets. Flash-boiling, effervescent, and air-assisted atomization are based on a two-phase flow to achieve effective atomization.

Spices Bioactive Components
Spices, condiments and extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) are crucial components of human history and nutrition. They are substances added to foods to improve flavor and taste. Many of them are used not only to flavor foods, but also in traditional medicine and cosmetics. They have antioxidant, antiviral, antibiotic, anticoagulant and antiinflammatory properties and exciting potential for preventing chronic degenerative diseases such as cardiomyopathy and cancer when used in the daily diet.
