Dilemma in Carotenoids Versus Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) Synthesis Using Haloarchaea as Cell Factories

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Production of PHAs by haloarchaea: the production of carotenoids and PHAs is concomitant, and consequently, various metabolic pathways compete for the carbon source. This results in a loss of PHA production efficiency. Efficient control of carbon source utilization (favoring certain metabolic pathways at the expense of others) is the key to the ...

Novel Zwitterionic Polydopamine Nanofiller‐Reinforced Hybrid Membranes With Superior Antifouling Performance for Wastewater Treatment

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work reports one‐pot synthesized novel zwitterionic polydopamine‐silica (ZSiPDA) nanofillers for fabricating PES hybrid ultrafiltration membranes with enhanced hydrophilicity, permeability, and antifouling performance. The optimized membrane achieved over 91% humic acid removal and showed strong potential for municipal wastewater treatment.

3D Knitted Interfacial Solar Steam Generator for High‐Efficiency and Long‐Term Seawater Desalination

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
The hydrophobic bottom provides buoyancy to keep the evaporator floating, and directional vertical spacer yarn supplies sufficient water. The knitted photothermal layer efficiently converts solar energy via multiple light reflections. The Marangoni effect induced by edge yarn accelerates the backflow of salt ions, preventing salt accumulation in the ...
