Making menstrual pads from succulents could improve access to sanitary products
A method for producing a highly absorbent material from sisal (Agave sisalana)—a drought-tolerant succulent plant—is described in a study published in Communications Engineering. The authors suggest that, with further development, their method could be used to produce locally sourced disposable menstrual pads in rural and semi-arid regions. Manu Prakash and colleagues treated fibers extracted from sisal leaves with peroxyformic acid and sodium hydroxide before air drying and blending them. This generated a fluffy material that the authors suggest could be used as an absorbent layer in a disposable menstrual pad—they found that it is capable of absorbing more water than a commercially-available cotton menstrual pad (23.9 vs. 15.2 grams of water per gram of material). The authors demonstrated this potential use by incorporating processed sisal into a prototype menstrual pad between a porous top layer and a waterproof bottom layer obtained from a commercial menstrual pad.

Industrial Absorbents Market Industry Leaders Size & Share Outlook & New Revenue Pockets
The industrial absorbents market is projected to grow from USD 4.3 billion in 2023 to USD 5.2 billion by 2028, at a CAGR of 4.0% from 2023 to 2028. The industrial absorbents market is driven by growing environmental concerns and regulations with respect to the spillage of oil and chemicals. Environmental regulatory bodies such as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) govern the functioning of end-use industries such as oil & gas and chemical industries regarding the application of spill control products and materials being used in the manufacture of spill control products. There is a high growth prospect for reusable industrial absorbents during the forecast period. Reusable absorbent products are cost-effective, and with rising regulatory obligations, they are expected to witness significant growth in the near future.

Based on material, the industrial absorbents market is bifurcated into natural organic, natural inorganic, and synthetic materials. The synthetic segment dominated the industrial absorbents market's value due to the extensive demand for polypropylene, which is both easily accessible and cost-effective compared to other materials. In contrast, the natural organic and natural inorganic segments held smaller shares within the market. Natural organic absorbents, like cellulose, possess flammability, limiting their application in industries like oil & gas and chemicals. Meanwhile, natural inorganic absorbents, such as clay and sand, find their utility primarily in land spill environments.
Based on products, the industrial absorbents market is segmented into pads, rolls, pillows, granules, booms & socks, sheets & mats, and others. The pads category led the industrial absorbents market, being the most prevalent absorbent used for wiping or preventing spills. These pads predominantly utilize materials like polypropylene, polyester, and polyurethane. Widely employed as universal and HAZMAT absorbents, they serve diverse industrial purposes. Booms & socks, on the other hand, are primarily deployed in water spill environments, especially for oil spill prevention and recovery.
Based on type, the industrial absorbents market is classified into universal, oil-only, and HAZMAT/Chemical. The oil-only segment held the largest share in the industrial absorbents market, primarily due to its extensive usage in the oil & gas industry, a major consumer of industrial absorbents. Entities involved in oil and LNG production utilize oil-only absorbents such as booms, socks, pillows, and rolls during drilling, processing, and production operations. HAZMAT/chemical absorbents cater to dangerous chemical spillages on land or water, while universal absorbents target smaller liquid spills, excluding hazardous chemicals.
Based on end-use industries, the industrial absorbents market is segmented into oil & gas, chemical, food processing, healthcare, and others. The oil & gas sector emerged as the primary consumer of industrial absorbents. This demand stemmed from the necessity to control, contain, and recover petroleum, oil, and LNG during operational spills. North American and European countries, bound by strict regulations, emphasized spill control product usage within the oil & gas industry. Additionally, the chemical industry exhibited significant demand for industrial absorbents, especially HAZMAT absorbent products, due to hazardous chemicals' adverse effects on human health and the environment.
The industrial absorbents market has been studied for North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, South America, and the Middle East & Africa. North America and Europe are mature markets for industrial absorbents. The North American region led the industrial absorbents market the highest CAGR between 2023 and 2028. Notably, these regions enforce rigorous regulations concerning spill management and containment, especially within industries like oil & gas and chemicals.

Projections indicate that Asia Pacific and the Middle East & Africa will emerge as the swiftest expanding markets for industrial absorbents in the foreseeable future. Anticipated growth stems from a heightened demand for spill control solutions in nations like China, India, and Saudi Arabia, propelling the industrial absorbents market's advancement within these regions.
Major players operating in the industrial absorbents market include Companies such as 3M Company (US), Brady Corporation (US), Decorus Europe Ltd. (UK), Johnson Matthey Plc (UK), Kimberly-Clark Professional (US), Meltblown Technologies Inc. (US), Monarch Green, Inc. (US), New Pig Corporation (US), and Oil-Dri Corporation of America (US). The companies have widespread manufacturing facilities, an established portfolio of industrial absorbents, a robust market presence, and strong business strategies. These factors are attributed to their progression in the industrial absorbents market.

imagine being illario and finally finding the resolve to kill your cousin right. you seduce and fuck a blood mage venatori magister to get her to do this for you. you figure you’ll eventually kill her once you are first talon, tie up the loose end and make it look good for you. a vengeance story! except when your cousin’s body shows up your grandma retreats into herself presumably out of grief and you’re like jesus christ he’s a corpse and still the favorite. at this point you start feeling some regret and at the wake you’re beside yourself. it helps to be really feeling some of that to fool everyone else. but months pass and your grandma still isn’t even discussing the inheritance and you have to be normal because you don’t want to incriminate yourself. and then a year later some random guy (worse if its a de riva tbh) shows up saying they need your cousin to kill an elven god (what.) and he’s the only one who could (insulting). and its at this point your grandma is like “lucanis died… but he is not dead!”. record scratch freezeframe. while you juggle with the fact that the freak woman you fucked specifically to get her to kill your cousin didn’t even kill your cousin AND your grandma didn’t bother telling you (for good reason ofc but she doesn’t know that), you have to lead these assholes to go save him and unravel your hard work. so plan b. you kidnap your grandma and push your (now possessed) cousin away (and then get mad when he actually walks away. because you’re like this). and when your cousin comes dangerously close to figuring out what’s happened with you and the magister, you kill the magister. you ally with those elven gods and venatori (you aren’t sure how you’re going to get out of this one but it’s fine. that’s a hill for future illario) to make sure you have enough backing to stand up against the other houses if they challenge you becoming first talon. you continue to gaslight your cousin into staying away, because if there is one thing you can count on, it’s his literal inner demons and total lack of a support group, you’re certain he’ll fuck it up by himself. you know this because his support group used to be your grandma (dubious) and yourself (lol). you’re almost home free. and caterina will definitely acknowledge you as a player on the board. which isn’t important but it would be nice, right. BUT THEN IT TURNS OUT. YOUR COUSIN HAS RECENTLY MADE 7 FRIENDS. one of whom can speak to the fucking dead because of course he can. and then some of those friends show up to publicly humiliate you at the dinner party that should have been YOUR crowning moment. your grandma ALSO shows up to tell everyone you have gathered that your cousin is first talon. your cousin gapes at her because he doesn’t actually even want it so it’s kind of awkward for everyone. and then when you’re sure he’s about to ask viago de riva to poison you to death, he actually tells him just to take you away. because OF COURSE he’s being the bigger person. anyways the point is i’m surprised illario just lets himself be taken away because if i were him i would have started biting people and then bombed the villa

These guys wont really get to be very present until the next season of Dungeon Meshi#But I can still be excited to see them animated!!!#Shout out to Pattadol - I also tend to occupy 'The Punchline' niche of the friendgroup.#The punchline differs from 'The Jester' who willingly absorbs the jokes. The punchline is often unwillingly the joke.#You are either the one no one likes or the well beloved little-sibiling-esque friend. Good luck figuring out which!#Yes it is canon that Otta is into Women. YES she dates younger women and dumps them when they age.#This isn't a fan made bit. It's real.#Dungeon Meshi has no romance but it does have canonically queer characters.#Shipping is fine and all but it is a running theme in the series than *everyone* who expresses romantic interest in someone -#-finds that love unrequited. Just something to be mindful of to measure your expectations of this series!#Ah! In other housekeeping notes; I'm going to *try* and add Alt Text to my dungeon meshi thurday posts going forwards.#I might not be able to do it day of but I will try to get it done within a week.

The fact that Piltover and Zaun are sister-cities that were both once united under Zaun, until a catastrophic accident involving explosives separated it into two. And then Zaun sank into darkness and chaos and became infused with Shimmer while Piltover rose out of the muck with the help of rich merchant clans. And Piltover hurt Zaun badly but now Zaun hurt it back and they are going to go to war. The damage is done, and they will probably never reconcile. But they will always be sister-cities. Nothing can erase their entwined history. Nothing can change that they were both once Zaun. They hate each other but they will always be sisters.
#sister cities. the sisters are the cities.#not saying vi is 1:1 to piltover of course#but she will be swallowed up and absorbed by the city and eventually come to represent it in a fucked up way#The Piltover Enforcer. Piltover's Finest. oof.#arcane#arcane league of legends#league of legends#arcane netflix#vi#jinx#arcane vi#arcane jinx#zaun#piltover
