Metasurface Enhanced Photothermal Cement Foam for Robust and High‐Throughput Seawater Desalination

Carbon Energy, EarlyView.
Schematic of 3D metasurface‐enhanced cement foam for robust and high‐throughput seawater desalination. This study presents a cement‐based solar evaporator (CSE) fabricated in one step via viscoelastic lithography with simple negative pressure. In addition to boosting solar‐to‐vapor conversion efficiency via excellent light‐harvesting capacity, the ...

Tetrazine Ligation in Living Systems: Beyond Fast Kinetics to Effective Bioorthogonality

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Rapid reaction kinetics (k2) alone do not ensure successful tetrazine ligation in living systems. This review introduces ‘effective orthogonality’—focusing on chemical survival, availability, and encounter—as a practical framework. We highlight how bottlenecks shift from cellular sinks to in vivo delivery limits, offering design strategies for reliable

Geological and geotechnical challenges on the Great Dyke of Zimbabwe and their impact on hardrock pillar design

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
The Great Dyke of Zimbabwe is notable for its rich platinum group metal deposits but poses significant geological and geotechnical challenges due to its complex rock types and structural features. Traditional pillar design methods are insufficient for addressing these complexities; the study suggests incorporating advanced techniques such as machine ...
