Unexpected transformation of dissolved phenols to toxic dicarbonyls by hydroxyl radicals and UV light. [PDF]

, 2018
Water treatment systems frequently use strong oxidants or UV light to degrade chemicals that pose human health risks. Unfortunately, these treatments can result in the unintended transformation of organic contaminants into toxic products.

Synergistic Intra‐ and Inter‐Nanozyme Electron Transfer through Interfacial Assembly for Enhanced Multi‐Enzyme Activity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel Prussian blue‐based composite nanoenzymes (PB C‐NZs)‐MoS2/PB, was designed based on the electron transfer mechanism and transport pathway. The structure uses MoS2 as the substrate, with PB grown on its surface through a surface assembly method.

Bio‐Inspired Cascade Photocatalysis on Fe Single‐Atom Carbon Nitride Upcycles Plastic Wastes for Effective Acetic Acid Production

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a novel cascade photocatalysis concept using Fe single‐atom catalysts (Fe@C3N4 SAC) to directly upcycle plastics (PET, PP, PE, PVC) into valuable acetic acid at ambient conditions. Inspired by microbial degradation, the bifunctional cascade photocatalyst combines Fenton‐like oxidation and CO2 photoreduction, as validated by ...

Advances in Triboelectric Nanogenerators With Rotating Structure

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
The rotating TENG has been widely studied for its superiorities of simple structure, high efficiency, and stable output. This review introduced the four different principles of rotating TENG and offered a thorough summary for performance and application research through three‐level classification. Importantly, the current existing problems, challenges,
