Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems

Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.
This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

Thin and Compact Versus Thick and Porous Fouling Layers in the Emulsion Polymerization of Acrylates and Vinyl Acetates Studied In Situ With a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM)

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 21, June 5, 2026.
ABSTRACT Building on a quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM‐D), fouling in emulsion polymerization was compared between acrylate dispersions stabilized with a mobile, anionic surfactant and dispersions of poly(vinyl acetate‐co‐vinyl neodecanoate), PVAc, stabilized with polyvinyl alcohol, PVOH.

Phosphate limitation and implications for biofouling control in seawater UF/RO systems

, 2010
Biofouling is identified as one of the main problems in seawater reverse osmosis systems which increases operational costs and shortens membrane life. Biofouling control is therefore crucial for the viability of such systems.

MXene/PEDOT Functional Coatings on Flexible Microelectrode Arrays for Multianalyte In Vivo Neurochemical Sensing and Electrophysiology

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 46, 8 June 2026.
A MXene/PEDOT coating enables multimodal functionality and dual‐analyte detection of dopamine and serotonin in flexible microelectrode arrays while enhancing electrophysiological recording quality. The anti‐fouling, low‐impedance interface overcomes key limitations of conventional coatings, providing a robust and versatile platform to investigate the ...

Exploring the Potential of Zero‐Dimensional Carbon Nanomaterials in Photoluminescent, Electrochemiluminescent and Electrochemical Sensors

Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 11, 9 June 2026.
Zero‐dimensional carbon nanomaterials are presented as multifunctional platforms linking structure, property, and sensing performance. Surface engineering and heteroatom doping modulate electron‐transfer and luminescent behavior, enabling electrochemical, photoluminescent, and electrochemiluminescent detection. Fundamental design principles, analytical

Advancing Environmental DNA Methods for Monitoring the Reproduction of Quagga and Zebra Mussels in Lakes

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive alien mussels threaten freshwater ecosystems worldwide by disrupting food webs and nutrient cycling. The effective monitoring of these populations is therefore essential to assess their spread and ecological impacts. This study demonstrates the applicability of environmental DNA (eDNA) methods to monitor the reproductive periods of ...
