Sustainable levulinic acid production from inulin via hydrothermal conversion
Abstract This study investigates the hydrothermal conversion of inulin using potassium pyrosulfate to levulinic acid (LA). The Box–Behnken design approach was applied to optimize the conversion parameters and analyze the interactions influencing LA yield.

Atomically precise metal cluster enzymes for pathological tissue regeneration
Schematic illustration of atomically precise metal cluster enzymes (MCEs) for pathological tissue regeneration. Atomically precise MCEs can modulate biological processes, such as attenuation of inflammatory responses, eradication of bacterial pathogens, regulation of angiogenesis, and promotion of cell development.

Photocatalytic Degradation of Microplastic with Sunlight
The use of plastics is on its second century of rapid increase. One type of plastic, called microplastics (MP), has gained much attention and concern due to indications about both environmental hazards and direct risks to the health of the population. A major site for MP spreading is waste water treatment plants (WWTP).
