The researcher identified the important features of participles, as well as the concept of participles, adjectives, and their types. Also, the most important changes that affect the participles during such shifts. Further, an exposition is made of the different producers through which a verbal clause is changed into an adjectival one in Russian.
This type of functional shift in parts of speech is seen as a process of deriving most of the new words in contemporary Russian. Russian is very rich in new words, whether by way of processe

Current research addresses the development of a natural polymer's chemical structure to produce an absorbent nanocomposite for lead removal. This development relied on the available functional groups (amino-NH2 and hydroxyl-OH groups) in biopolymers to create adsorbent material through two steps. The first step was chemical bonding of chitosan with glutaraldehyde as a crosslinking agent (CT-GLA) using emulsion cross linking technique, followed by another bonding with a heterogeneous organic compound to provide additional functional groups (CT-GLA-PD).

One of the research motivations in the MD field is to develop high-performance membranes by preparing hydrophobic membranes due to their high throughput and rejection. The current work focuses on the fabrication and performance evaluation of electrospun nanofiber membranes using recycled acrylic (Polymethyl Methacrylate) (RA) via air gap membrane distillation (AGMD). Recycling this material not only reduces plastic waste and pollution, but it also offers a low-cost alternative to virgin polymers, which aids in membrane fabrication. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) confirmed a uniform, highly porous nanofibrous structure with interconnected pores in the prepared nanofiber membranes. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) revealed

Show MoreThe current study objective is to synthesize activated carbon (AC) from compressed wood using the ZnCl2 activating agent and to assess the ciprofloxacin (CIP) elimination efficiency in simulated wastewater. The produced AC was characterized using multiple techniques, including SEM, BET, FTIR, AFM, and XRD. The adsorbent demonstrates high adsorption performance, achieving 91% removal of CIP within 5 hours at an initial pollutant concentration of 100 mg/L with an AC dose of 2 g/L. Experimental data correspond to the Freundlich isotherm model (R² = 0.995) as well as the Langmuir competitive fitting (R² = 0.99), while the root mean square error (RMSE) equation best fits the Langmuir model.

Each bit in the sent information has high priority especially with information such as the address of the receiver. The importance of error detection with each single change is a key issue in data transmission field.
The ordinary single parity detection method can detect odd number of errors efficiently, but fails with even number of errors. Other detection methods such as two-dimensional and checksum showed better results and failed to cope with the increasing number of errors.
Two novel methods were suggested to detect the binary bit change errors when transmitting data in a noisy media.Those methods were: 2D-Checksum me
