Waste activated sludge high‐rate treatment of septage: Stabilization phase trials and comparison with winery wastewater treatment

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Performance evaluation of the waste activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process for septic wastewater treatment. Abstract The waste‐activated sludge high‐rate (WASHR) process is evaluated as a batch‐mode pre‐treatment for actual septage using a high‐rate contact stabilization (HRCS) approach.

High atmospheric pressure rescues plant growth under humidity stress: A model for climate‐resilient deep underground agriculture

Deep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
High atmospheric pressure (120 kPa) in deep underground counteracts humidity‐induced physiological stress in plants, stabilizing water balance and enhancing antioxidative defenses. This synergy boosts biomass despite elevated humidity, demonstrating sustainable deep underground agriculture potential under climate uncertainty.

Beyond Technological Maturity: Understanding the Institutional Trajectories of Carbon‐Derived Renewable Methane in the European Energy System

EcoEnergy, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that the limitation of bioCO2‐derived methane is systemic rather than technological, and provide a validated framework for traceability, certification, and policy alignment enabling its integration into RFNBO‐compliant value chains and EU energy systems. ABSTRACT Renewable methane derived from biogenic CO2 (bioCO2) occupies a paradoxical

Harnessing Natural Wood Architecture: A Self‐Supporting, Hierarchically Porous NiFe@Carbon Capacitive Anode Enhances Electricity Generation and Storage in Microbial Fuel Cells

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This study reports a mild “Zn(NO3)2 interlayer‐expansion” strategy combined with electrodeposition to produce a self‐supporting capacitive anode (NiFe@PC) that preserves the wood's native low‐tortuosity channels. The retained native architecture expands niches for microbial colonization.

Phase‐Change‐Activated Slippery Organogel Composite for All‐in‐One Anti‐Corrosion, Antifouling, and Self‐Cleaning

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A super‐slippery liquid‐infused composite organogel is engineered by localized interfacial grafting between hydrogel and oleogel networks, endowing the coating with a durable, multifunctional marine‐protective interface. Dynamic antifouling surfaces have emerged as a promising alternative, offering the potential for eco‐friendly and high‐performance ...
