Effects of Pyrolysis Control Parameters on the Structural Properties of Biomass‐Derived Activated Carbon Materials and Their Energy Applications

The Chemical Record, Volume 26, Issue 3, March 2026.
Tubular pyrolysis synthesis is a widespread method to produce activated carbons (ACs). This review focuses on the different controlling parameters of the tubular pyrolysis synthesis method and their influence on the performance of synthesized ACs, thereby considering both experimental aspects and the use of plant‐based biomasses (PBBs) as feedstock ...

ZIF‐67‐Confined Pd Single‐Atom Catalysts Implanted Into Polydopamine‐Modified Bamboo Microchannels for Robust Continuous‐Flow Hydrogenation

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 11, 23 February 2026.
The report presents a facile room‐temperature method to stabilize Pd single‐atom catalysts within ZIF‐67 crystals during their formation. Despite an ultralow Pd loading (0.0014 wt%), the catalytic microreactor, featuring atomically dispersed Pd‐N4 sites in ZIF‐67, demonstrates superior robustness and maximized Pd utilization, significantly ...

Soil quality assessment of oak forests invaded by moso bamboo (Phyllostachys edulis) in the northern subtropics

Global Ecology and Conservation
Soil quality is closely related to the evolution of forest ecosystems, especially in the context of global warming; therefore, it is essential to study the changes in soil quality caused by the invasion of moso bamboo in its habitat.
