Metasurface Enhanced Photothermal Cement Foam for Robust and High‐Throughput Seawater Desalination

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Schematic of 3D metasurface‐enhanced cement foam for robust and high‐throughput seawater desalination. This study presents a cement‐based solar evaporator (CSE) fabricated in one step via viscoelastic lithography with simple negative pressure. In addition to boosting solar‐to‐vapor conversion efficiency via excellent light‐harvesting capacity, the ...

Pyrrolic‐Nitrogen‐Enriched Aerogels With Magnetic Responsiveness Enable Cooperative Hydrogen‐Bond Regulation for High‐Performance Solar Interfacial Evaporation

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
A pyrrolic‐nitrogen‐enriched ferromagnetic aerogel enables sophisticated cooperative regulation of hydrogen bonding, whereby this dual‐regulatory mechanism effectively reduces vaporization enthalpy while simultaneously enhancing molecular dynamics. The system demonstrates exceptional self‐cleaning capability and exhibits superior performance in the ...

Synthesizing polyethersulphone membranes with hybrid iron/nickel nanoparticles for dyes removal: An efficient biogenesis approach

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Industrial wastewater contamination by azo dyes poses a significant environmental challenge. This study reports the green synthesis of bimetallic iron/nickel (Fe/Ni) nanoparticles using moringa leaf extract, which acted as both a reducing and capping agent, and their incorporation into polyethersulphone (PES) membranes to produce eco‐friendly ...
