Researchers at Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) successfully demonstrated that organic nutrients may contribute to the outbreak of green tides in the southern Yellow Sea.
Large macroalgal blooms (also known as green tides, or Ulva prolifera) occurred in the southern Yellow Sea, China, yearly from 2008 to 2015. Since 2008, green tides have become a severe problem with negative impacts on the coastal ecosystem o...

Researchers at Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) successfully demonstrated the feasibility of a nonsaltbased precursor pair-inorganic HPbI3 solid and organic CH3NH2 gas-for the deposition of uniform CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite thin films.
The organic-inorganic hybrid halides perovskite solar cells have been improved to the certificated efficiency of 22.1% recently and the coming question is how to easily get the high quality perovskite films to meet the requirement for its fut...
