Electro‐Conductive Silver‐Coated Polyamide‐Imide Membranes for Sustainable Water Treatment

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
This study reports the development of a silver‐coated, electro‐conductive ultrafiltration membrane supported on polyamide‐imide. Using a simple and scalable spray‐coating method, the membrane achieved a high electrical conductivity of 2.215 × 10−5 S cm−1.

Polylactic Acid (PLA), Polycaprolactone (PCL), and Chitosan: the Biodegradable Transition in Medical Waste Management

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
The shift to biodegradable materials in healthcare promises reduced plastic pollution, but their production, adoption, and long‐term impacts remain complex. Integrating lifecycle insights with global policy coordination is essential for meaningful environmental gains. Abstract The COVID‐19 pandemic sharply increased medical waste, intensifying concerns

CO2 Capture, Utilization, and Storage using Amino Acids

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Amino acid and amino acid‐based ionic liquids show potential for sustainable CO2 capture, benefiting from reactive NH2 groups and low‐energy regeneration. Their use in solvents, functionalized sorbents, direct air capture, mineralization, and CO2 conversion highlights their versatilty and promise for advacing next‐generation CO2 sequestration ...

Anisotropically Wettable Porous Transport Layers for Gas Management in Water Electrolyzers

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Synergistic wetting, achieved by integrating hydrophilic and hydrophobic domains, enhances mass transport in porous transport layers. In situ visualization reveals that dual‐phase wetting suppresses gas accumulation and promotes continuous bubble release, enabling stable, bubble‐free electrolysis within membrane electrode assemblies.

Thermal Shielding and Vapor Transport Enhancement in MOF‐Enabled Membranes for Membrane Distillation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A metal–organic framework‐enabled membrane (MEM) with a hierarchical porous structure is developed for thermal‐efficient membrane distillation. By embedding ZIF‐8 onto PH nanofibers, the MEM achieves low thermal conductivity and significantly enhances vapor flux and thermal efficiency.

Public Perceptions of the Midwest’s Pavements - Minnesota - Phase I (Winter Ride) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
The Minnesota Winter Ride Survey was designed to gauge the extent to which motorists were tolerant of the rougher ride of pavements on rural two-lane highways in the winter. Survey objectives, therefore, were centered around this focal question of winter
