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.

Synergistic Enhancement of Modified‐PVDF Humidity Sensitivity via Chemical Adsorption‐Ionic Conductivity and its Application in Intelligent Powered Air‐Purifying Respirator

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, Volume 9, Issue 3, May 2026.
The study developed a PVDF/SiO2 humidity sensor with superhydrophobic properties and integrated the humidity sensor into the intelligent powered air‐purifying respirator (IPAPR) for breath monitoring. Coupled with the Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU) machine learning prediction algorithm, it enables feedforward control of the fan to achieve respiratory ...

Incorporating ethylene glycol into hydrophilic poly(ether‐b‐amide) membranes for enhanced gas dehumidification performance

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 1449-1462, March 2026.
Using ethylene glycol to enhance water vapour permeation for gas dehumidification. Abstract In the present study, ethylene glycol (EG) was incorporated into hydrophilic poly(ether‐b‐amide) matrix membranes to enhance the membrane performance for gas dehumidification (e.g., H2O/N2, H2O/CH4, and H2O/CO2 separations). Exploiting EG as a hygroscopic agent,
