Chemically Modular, Nonfluorinated Polymer Adsorbents for Capturing Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS)

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Nonfluorinated polymer networks for PFAS adsorption are synthesized using active ester click chemistry. Incorporating Lewis base ligands along with hydrophilic and hydrophobic co‐monomers leads to high PFOA binding efficiency. Ligand basicity and pH are found to play an important role in PFOA sorption.

Stacking Efficiency of Oryza sativa Plant Microbial Fuel Cells in Paddy Fields: Power Generation and Methane Reduction as Measures for Greener Technology

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
The 3D‐printed MFCs in paddies during rice cultivation generated a maximum power density of 26 µW/m2 within 3 days via a series–parallel configuration and theoretically reduced methane by 0.012–0.016 kg for 1 m2 of land use through an LCA based on existing methane reduction data in rice paddies.
