Automate OpenSCAP remediation on RHEL 9: run `oscap xccdf eval --results arf.xml`, then `oscap xccdf generate fix --fix-type ansible` to produce a playbook that applies all failed rule fixes, like file permissions. Save time, ensure consistency. #openscap #ansible #remediation

#Eggshells from agro-industrial waste for the recovery of #lime, #portlandite, and #calcite nanoparticles through the lime cycle: A circular economic approach

Highlights:

• The study proposes to obtain calcite (#CaCO3) from eggshell agro-industrial waste within a circular economy approach.
• The lime cycle can be used to transform calcite (CaCO3) into lime (CaO) or portlandite (Ca(OH)2).
• Eggshells contain trace elements that can aid in synthesizing materials for #EnvironmentalRemediation..

"Eggshells from agro-industrial waste can be used as natural source to obtain nanometric CaCO3, CaO, and Ca(OH)2 using the lime cycle. The nanometric size and the phase identification of all samples were confirmed by X-ray diffraction and FWHM. The SEM images show that CaCO3, CaO, and Ca(OH)2 from eggshells are microparticles in the form of nanocrystals, which correlate with the DLS results. The Zeta Potential varies due to the loss of CO2 when CaCO3 is converted in CaO, and for this reason, the CaO is more negative. When CaO is hydrated, the Ca(OH)2 is more stable, and these differences can be attributed to the mineral content in the samples. Eggshells naturally have different trace minerals that maintain a long calcium cycle and show variation due to a concentration effect when the CaCO3 changes to CaO. There is a notable a decrease of the trace minerals when CaO. When CaO is converted to Ca(OH)2, there is a significant decrease in trace minerals as some ions are soluble in the water during soaking. It is recommended to carry out the conversion of CaO to Ca(OH)2 under controlled conditions (low humidity and CO2). These findings can be useful to treat #AgroIndustrial waste and to develop nanotechnological applications in different fields."

🎙️ The #FIRSTImpressionsPodcast is back for the 2026 conference season!
Tune in to the newest episode at: https://media.first.org/podcasts/FIRST_Impressions-MorLior.mp3

In this episode, podcasters interview Mor Weinberger and Lior Kaplan to preview their #FIRSTCON26 session: “From Discovery to Fix: What 10,000 Open Source Projects Reveal About CVE Remediation”

The conversation dives into:
🔹 Why 90% of #CVEs already have fixes available
🔹 Why #remediation still takes months
🔹 How AI is accelerating vulnerability discovery
🔹 The hidden complexity of open source supply chains
🔹 Practical ways organizations can reduce risk today

New episodes drop every Friday leading up to FIRSTCON, featuring previews of conference talks and conversations with presenters across the global incident response community.

A new study finds that perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) can be degraded, albeit slowly, by hydrogen radicals in the water following irradiation with ultraviolet light with wavelengths shorter than 300 nm.

🌎 Mapping dominant chemical speciation in a polluted carbonate aquifer

In my recent modeling work, I modeled the dominant forms of element speciation in groundwater within a carbonate system.

Beyond pure geochemical curiosity, this approach provides a practical lens:
– it reveals where mineral precipitation is most probable,
– and helps identify zones where remediation can be most effective.

💻 Combining thermodynamic modeling (PHREEQC) with spatial analysis in R and QGIS turns subsurface processes into actionable insights for water-quality management and contamination mitigation.

Two figures below show the modeled distribution of cadmium species across the aquifer and their evolution with dilution

It is also interesting to see how people spend significant time and effort to download digital facsimiles from academic repositories, edit every image, and upload them to the Internet Archive.

See, for example, scans of البلاغ الاسبوعي published in Cairo from 1926 onwards ( https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q60578577 ). Scans of the copies held by the University of Tübingen are hosted by the University of Bonn: https://digitale-sammlungen.ulb.uni-bonn.de/ulbbnioa/periodical/pageview/7282062. Based on the position of tears and specks, I am pretty sure that these images are the source of https://archive.org/details/Elbalah-week/مجلة%20البلاغ%20الأسبوعي%20-%20العدد%20001/
