Advances in Floating Solar Desalination Systems
Water and Environment Journal, EarlyView.This review critically classifies floating solar desalination systems into five main categories and compares their thermal performance, productivity and technological limitations. Membrane‐based and multieffect systems showed the highest efficiencies, while traditional designs remain limited by heat losses and scaling.

A Comprehensive Review of Waste‐Derived Materials for Solar Still Performance Enhancement
Advanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 9, 5 May 2026.Solar desalination reduces energy use and produces freshwater sustainably, but its productivity is limited and cannot meet rising demand. Thus, solar desalination system improvements are sought to boost water productivity. Waste materials are abundantly available and burden the environment, making them low‐cost enhancers for solar desalination systems.

Scaling up Battery‐Electrode Drying from Lab to Pilot Scale: Match the Drivers, Not the Set Points
Batteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.Ramping up electrode production for lithium‐ion batteries is challenging, as drying parameters from lab or pilot machines often fail to transfer to industrial dryers. A physics‐based model couples air‐condition and drying behavior to predict drying kinetics.
