Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This study proposes a sustainable solution for rainwater‐driven energy harvesting by harnessing the intrinsic properties of lignin in wood. The first demonstration of an all‐wood tribonegative material for liquid–solid triboelectric nanogenerators is presented, eliminating the need for fluorine‐containing polymers and functional additives. Abstract The

A Sustainable Biotechnology Approach for Mineral Separation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Silver‑binding peptides are first identified through phage‐display screening, and then engineered into multifunctional and responsive peptides or proteins. These tailored biomolecules can selectively capture and aggregate silver particles or ions from complex mixtures, enabling rapid and efficient silver separation and recovery.

Wastes recycling in the construction
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 Abstract For many years fuel and energy and ore-dressing industries have been the sources of industrial waste which, if treated correctly, can be reused as secondary raw material resources accumulating earlier wasted investments and power costs. The article introduces possible ways of recycling both in our country and abroad.
