Confinement−Adsorption Synergy in Hybrid Carbon‐Coated Separator Enables Stable High‐Rate Quinone Cathode for Magnesium Batteries

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A sulfur‐containing heterocyclic quinone cathode for rechargeable magnesium batteries is coupled with a GO/MWCNTs–COOH separator that establishes a confinement–adsorption regulation mechanism, thereby significantly accelerating Mg2+ reaction kinetics and minimizing active‐material loss.

Carbon‐Negative Upcycling of Sewage Sludge into Superiorly Stable Gel Via Liquid‐Phase Utilization Strategy for Water‐Remediation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This work developed a low‐temperature sludge hydrothermal coupled with gel crosslinking strategy which could upgrade the waste liquid generated from sewage sludge hydrothermal treatment into the hydrothermal‐liquid‐gel. The inventive hydrothermal‐liquid‐gel exhibited the enhanced pollutant removal capability, high synthetic stability, and superior ...

Sacrificing Energy for Mass Transfer to Boost Solar Steam Generation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Vapor accumulation often limits the performance of passive interfacial solar evaporation. Inspired by the Dyson sphere concept, Xu, Yang, and co‐workers designed a perforated‐shell evaporator with an internal non‐evaporating core that diverts incident sunlight to drive self‐generated internal convection for vapor removal.
