Advanced Science, EarlyView.Field‐driven active colloids are framed as distributed micromachines in which externally supplied power, sensing, and control regulate task‐relevant states. By closing the loop between particle behavior, imaging, computation, and electric or magnetic actuation, these systems can progress from programmable motion toward adaptive functional outcomes ...

Organic fouling and osmotic backwashing in PRO
Desalination and Water Treatment, 2016 AbstractThe pressure-retarded osmosis process is the next generation seawater desalination technology and is considered as eco-friendly and economic renewable energy. As such, there are active studies of means of efficient cleaning to restore the membrane performance degraded due to the reversible membrane fouling that inevitably occurs after prolonged

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A scalable synthesis of carbon‐supported ultrasmall CeO2 nanoparticles with precisely tunable Ce electron density is reported. Electron‐lean Ce sites activate H2O2 exclusively via a nonradical pathway, enabling efficient HOBr and 1O2 production analogous to bromoperoxidase for contaminant and antibiotic resistance removal.

Anti-fouling membranes by manipulating surface wettability and their anti-fouling mechanism
, 2017 This study aims to compare the anti-wetting and anti-fouling surface behavior in membrane distillation (MD) by two surface modification routes on porous polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. A superhydrophobic membrane (SiO-PFTS/PVDF) was obtained by

Nanoscale Buried Interface Control in Silicone Hydrogels Enables a Biointerface Engineering Platform
Advanced Science, EarlyView.A hydrophilic coating with controllable nanoscale thickness is applied to commercial silicone hydrogel contact lenses. By combining comprehensive multi‐modal three‐dimensional characterization with an advanced algorithm, the thickness and chemical information of these multilayered structures are resolved.
