Challenges of Power Generation by Reverse Electrodialysis

open access: yesEnergies
Reverse electrodialysis (RED) is a power generation method that harnesses the energy of mixing high- and low-salinity solutions through ion migration across ion-exchange membranes. While it is being extensively investigated as an environmentally friendly

Synergistic Enhancement of Photocatalytic Nitrate Reduction Over Fe‐Doped Bi/Bi2WO6 via Lewis Acidic Sites and Surface Plasmon Resonance

open access: yesChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 12, 26 June 2026.
The enhanced photocatalytic nitrate‐to‐ammonia conversion over H‐Fe‐B/BWO can be summarized as a cooperative process involving surface reaction chemistry and charge‐carrier dynamics. Fe dopants introduced into the Bi2WO6 lattice generate coordinatively unsaturated metal centers, which function as Lewis acidic sites capable of strongly interacting with ...

Robust Polymer Hydrogels Improve Electric‐Fish‐Inspired Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 38, 11 May 2026.
ABSTRACT Electric‐fish‐inspired hydrogel batteries based on ion‐concentration gradients offer an attractive route to soft power sources; however, the poor mechanical properties of existing hydrogels limit device assembly and performance. Here, we report poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether acrylate hydrogels that enable ion‐gradient batteries composed of

Generating Power Through Salinity Gradients in Osmotic Engines via Microfluidic Synthesized Hydrogel Particles

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 5, May 2026.
Monodisperse hydrogel particles synthesized via microfluidics serve as active materials for harvesting salinity‐gradient energy. Their swelling‐deswelling cycles drive piston motion in osmotic engines to generate mechanical power. By optimizing hydrogel properties and engine parameters, a maximum power of 13.20 W·kg−1 is achieved, demonstrating the ...
