Characteristics of Vehicle Tire and Road Wear Particles’ Size Distribution and Influencing Factors Examined via Laboratory Test

open access: yesAtmosphere
With the implementation of strict emission regulations and the use of cleaner fuels, there has been a considerable reduction in exhaust emissions. However, the relative contribution of tire wear particles (TWPs) to particulate matters is expected to ...

Recent Advances in Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Gas Sensors: From Sensing Mechanisms to Biomedical Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laser‐induced graphene (LIG) provides a scalable, laser‐direct‐written route to porous graphene architecture with tunable chemistry and defect density. Through heterojunction engineering, catalytic functionalization, and intrinsic self‐heating, LIG achieves highly sensitive and selective detection of NOX, NH3, H2, and humidity, supporting next ...

High‐Entropy Engineering and External Magnetic Field Modulation Synergistically Enhance the H2S Sensing Performance of Rare‐Earth Perovskite Ferrites

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel high‐entropy perovskite oxide, (Gd0.2Tb0.2Dy0.2Ho0.2Er0.2)FeO3, was successfully synthesized for advanced hydrogen sulfide gas detection. By synergistically coupling high‐entropy‐induced local lattice distortion with weak magnetic field modulation, the tailored material generates abundant active sites. This innovative dual strategy dramatically

Ships, ports and particulate air pollution - an analysis of recent studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The duration of use is usually significantly longer for marine vessels than for roadside vehicles. Therefore, these vessels are often powered by relatively old engines which may propagate air pollution.

Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

MXene‐Based Room‐Temperature NO2 Gas Sensors: A Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents the first comprehensive meta‐analysis of MXene‐based NO2 sensors, decoding 32 study characteristics across 61 peer‐reviewed studies. By isolating materials chemistry as the primary performance driver over device‐level parameters, the authors establish a methodological blueprint and a predictive structure–function map to accelerate ...

Interfacial Tandem Catalysis Over a CuSn(OH)6/Co Heterostructure Enables Efficient Electroreduction of Nitrate to Ammonia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Interfacial tandem catalysis is developed for efficient electrochemical reduction of NO3− to NH3 over a CuSn(OH)6/Co heterostructure. CuSn(OH)6 accelerates the rate‐determining NO3−‐to‐*NO2 conversion, whereas Co promotes H2O dissociation to enhance *H supply for the rapid hydrogenation of *NO2 intermediate to NH3.

On the interpretation of epidemiological studies of ambient air pollution [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Exposure Science & Environmental Epidemiology, 2007
Studies of the effects of ambient air pollution on human health are complicated by the fact that individuals are exposed to a complex mixture of toxic and non-toxic substances that vary in their make-up in space and in time. It is impossible using standard epidemiological designs to uniquely identify any individual component of air pollution as a ...
