Natural South African iron‐rich sand as a functional catalyst in hybrid photocatalytic wet peroxide oxidation technology for the degradation of methyl orange dye pollutant

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
This research explored South African iron‐rich sand (SAIRS) as a natural catalyst for light‐mediated wet peroxide oxidation of methyl orange dye in wastewater and at an optimized of conditions of 3500 mg/L catalyst dose, 6 mM H2O2, and pH 2.5, SAIRS achieved 94% methyl orange degradation within 90 min under visible light.

Green and sustainable synthesis of magnetite from copper slag via citrate complexation for methylene blue dye removal from water

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study proposes a novel, green, and sustainable method for synthesizing magnetic iron oxides from metallurgical copper slag (CS), leveraging its iron content as a valuable resource. Iron was extracted via acid leaching using edible citric acid (ECA), forming a citrate–iron complex (CSL), which was subsequently thermally decomposed at 300°C

The Effect of Electrolyte pH and Impurities on the Stability of Electrolytic Bicarbonate Conversion

ChemSusChem, Volume 18, Issue 6, March 15, 2025.
The performance of bicarbonate electrolysis is largely controlled by the electrolyte inlet pH, the distance between the membrane and electrode, and the impurities present in the electrolyte. By complexing trace metal ions with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), stability can significantly be improved and longer term operation can be achieved ...

Engineering Nanoclay Edges to Construct Effective Polysulfide‐Trapping Interface for Markedly Enhanced Electrochemical Energy Storage

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A capsule‐shaped silicate clay (H‐ATP‐N2) rich in protonated edge hydroxyl groups (‐OH2+) is synthesized through a two‐step process involving microwave‐assisted acid treatment and N2 plasma etching to fibrous natural attapulgite. The H‐ATP‐N2 host inhibits the shuttle effect owing to the dominant adsorption mechanism–Lewis acid–base interaction between

Redistributing Cobalt and Tungsten From WC–Co Soft Scrap Toward Sustainable Cathode and Coating Materials for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A sustainable upcycling strategy transforms tungsten carbide–cobalt (WC–Co) soft scrap into high‐performance cathode materials. Recycled Co with trace nickel (Ni) is resynthesized into stabilized LiCoO2 with superior high‐voltage durability, while the recovered tungsten is further utilized as tungsten trioxide to enhance Ni‐rich cathode interfaces ...

Molten Salt Electrolyte for Enhanced Low‐Temperature Sodium Liquid Metal Batteries

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study introduces the application of a low‐temperature, high‐conductivity, solvent‐free Na/KFSI molten salt electrolyte in sodium liquid metal batteries. Additionally, this electrolyte facilitates the formation of a stable and NaF‐rich cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) on the alloy cathode, enabling stable cycling at an unprecedentedly low ...

Carbon‐Negative Upcycling of Sewage Sludge into Superiorly Stable Gel Via Liquid‐Phase Utilization Strategy for Water‐Remediation

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work developed a low‐temperature sludge hydrothermal coupled with gel crosslinking strategy which could upgrade the waste liquid generated from sewage sludge hydrothermal treatment into the hydrothermal‐liquid‐gel. The inventive hydrothermal‐liquid‐gel exhibited the enhanced pollutant removal capability, high synthetic stability, and superior ...
