Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.

Long-term fate of sewage-sludge derived cadmium in arable soils [PDF]
The focus of this work was to improve knowledge of the long-term fate of cadmium supplied to arable soils by sewage sludge. Emphasis was placed on measured and modelled changes in the solubility and mobility of cadmium, resulting from long-term turnover ...

Trends of atmospheric heavy metal deposition in Lithuania
The results of long-term measurements of heavy metal (Pb, Zn, Cr, Ni, Cu, Mn, Cd, Fe, As, Hg) concentrations carried out at the Aukstaitija and Žemaitija integrated monitoring stations (IMS) are presented in this work. The average annual concentrations of heavy metals in the air in 2007–2008 and in precipitation over the period 2006–2010 are analysed ...

A self‐sustaining solar photoelectrochemical cell (SS‐PEC) is developed to recover uranium from aqueous UO22+ with concurrent organic oxidation and electricity production. The monolithical photoanode directly captures electrons from organic compounds, leading to the oxidation of organic compounds and the decomposition of uranium‐organic complexes ...
