Effect of Peanut Shell Powder as a Pore‐Forming Additive in the Production of Ceramic Membranes
International Journal of Ceramic Engineering &Science, Volume 8, Issue 3, May 2026.This study investigates the sustainable use of an agricultural by‐product, Peanut shell powder (PSP), to create pores in clay‐alumina membranes sintered at 1150°C. With 30 wt.% PSP, porosity reaches 49%, achieving high water flux (∼2300 L·h−1·m−2) and usable strength (17 MPa). Ideal for low‐cost membrane and effluent treatment.

Removal of Inorganic Contaminants Using Sodalite Synthesized From Alum Sludge
Particle &Particle Systems Characterization, Volume 43, Issue 5, May 2026.Alum sludge was successfully converted into sodalite adsorbent through a mild hydrothermal for contaminants adsorption in wastewater. ABSTRACT The growing concern over water contamination by potentially toxic metals underscores the need for sustainable and cost‐effective remediation strategies. In this study, sodalite (SOD‐Na) was synthesized from alum

The master molecule that built biology: How water shaped the chemistry of life
Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The deep entanglement of biomolecular structure and function with aqueous systems supports the view that water actively sculpted both molecules and processes during the origins of life and continues to constrain evolution today. Nature's rules of biochemistry and biophysics have survived for nearly 4 billion years.

A soil sensing mechanism to reach carbon flux at a country scale
Soil Science Society of America Journal, Volume 90, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Soil is the largest terrestrial carbon reservoir and can be a source or sink of CO2 for the atmosphere, depending on management practices. CO2 emissions from the soil surface (FCO2) are directly related to the biological and physicochemical soil properties. Our objective was to estimate and spatialize the net ecosystem production (NEP) for the

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Soil moisture monitoring plays a critical role in water resource management, hydrological modeling, and climate studies, making sensor accuracy and reliability increasingly important. This study evaluates the performance of five soil moisture sensors—the CS655, HydraProbe, TDR‐315N, TEROS 12, and ThetaProbe—using their default calibrations ...

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract We measure the gas permeability of two permafrost sediments at a range of ice saturations and use van Genuchten‐Mualem equations to model the relative gas (krg) and water (krw) permeabilities of frozen sediments. We show that our frozen sediment krg data and model display the same functional form as frozen and unfrozen sediment krg data from ...

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Submarine landslides occur globally and have the potential to damage seafloor infrastructure and trigger tsunamis. Recently, diatomaceous weak layers have been hypothesized to play a role in triggering submarine landslides on passive continental margins by generating overpressure.
