Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

The Olive Oil Mill as Circular Hub
Olive oil production generates large amounts of by‐products at every stage of the production process. The olive mill can be considered a circular hub, where such by‐products are valorized through a cascade approach that first recovers valuable compounds and then converts the remaining biomass into renewable energy.

Transition Metal Chalcogenides: Perspectives on Their Applications for Nitrate Reduction
This review paper reports the syntheses, properties, and applications of TMCs for electrochemical reduction of nitrate to ammonia. Various studies revealed that the conversion of nitrate to ammonia is principally the electrocatalytic hydrogenation of nitrate and the rate and yield of ammonia is competitively challenged by hydrogen evolution reaction ...

Magnetron sputtering was used as a controlled surface‐engineering strategy to produce a Nb‐coated biochar capable of adsorbing pharmaceuticals with markedly different molecular structures and adsorption behaviors. Maintaining removal performance across 11 adsorption–regeneration cycles and reducing it by no more than 15% in the presence of the tested ...
