Valorization of Juice Industry Waste Into Foam‐Like Materials Using Mycelium as Natural Binder

CleanMat, EarlyView.
This study explores converting carrot pomace, a juice industry byproduct, into eco‐friendly mycelium‐based foams using Aspergillus oryzae. The foams, produced via submerged cultivation, grinding and freeze‐drying, showed promising mechanical properties comparable to commercial foams, offering a sustainable alternative to synthetics while promoting ...

Dual‐Functional Sulfonated Nanocellulose for Proton Exchange Membranes With High Proton Conductivity at Low Humidity

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A scalable dual‐functional strategy yields simultaneously sulfonated and nanosized cellulose for proton exchange membranes with continuous hydrogen‐bond networks. These sustainable membranes exhibit low‐humidity proton conductivity twofold higher than Nafion 212, providing a robust solution for next‐generation fuel cells.
