Nano-materials with ordered structures exhibit the valuable application in the domain of supercapacitors due to the internal structural advantages. Herein, one-dimensional nickel sulfide nano-arrays were prepared by a one-pot solvothermal method. When applied as the binder-free electrodes of supercapacitors, one-dimensional nickel sulfide nano-arrays can achieve superior electrochemical properties. It is particularly important that solidstate hybrid supercapacitors based on one-dimensional nickel sulfide nano-arrays and commercial activated carbon can achieve the areal energy density of 0.355 mWh cm–2 and stable voltage window of 0–1.6 V. In the meantime, the current hybrid supercapacitors can deliver the outstanding working lifetimes and the higher practical value. Such exciting results demonstrates that one-dimensional nickel sulfide nano-arrays have the wide application prospects in the field of small, lightweight, and mobile electronic products.

In recent years, there has been increased world-wide concern over residual (carry-over) activity of mostly high temperature (HT) and very high temperature (VHT) stable amylases in white, refined sugars from refineries to various food and end-user industries. HT and VHT stable amylases were developed for much larger markets than the sugar industry with harsher processing conditions. There is an urgent need in the sugar industry to be able to remove or inactivate residual, active amylases either in factory or refinery streams or both. A survey of refineries that used amylase and had activated carbon systems for decolorizing, revealed they did not have any customer complaints for residual amylase. The use of high performance activated carbons to remove residual amylase activity was investigated using a Phadebas® method created for the sugar industry to measure residual amylase in syrups. Ability to remove residual amylase protein was dependent on the surface area of the powdered activated carbons as well as mixing (retention) time. The activated carbon also had the additional benefit of removing color and insoluble starch.
