From Grave to Cradle: Kombucha Waste for Sustainable Electronics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study introduces a sustainable method to purify kombucha bacterial cellulose (KBC) with sodium bicarbonate and hydrogen peroxide, avoiding harsh chemicals. KBC films are patterned with gold and function as pressure sensors for flatfoot gait detection. At the end‐of‐life, the KBC‐based device biodegrades in soil, leaving environmentally benign gold

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Water scarcity poses a critical threat to global food security. A low‐power, flexible electromagnetic actuator is presented for smart drip irrigation systems. The device achieves precise, wide‐range flow modulation (0.05–5.8 mL/min) in response to real‐time plant demands, reducing water consumption compared to conventional flood irrigation.

Use of the Soil Modulus for Compaction Control of Compacted Soils
Proceedings of the International Conference on Ground Improvement & Ground Control, 2012 Insufficient compaction conditions can cause significant roadway infrastructure maintenance costs. Conventional compaction control, using nuclear methods, is based on the discrete in situ determination of the dry density and moisture content. Recently, there has been an increase interest in alternative methods for compaction control using intelligent ...
