Ion‐Confinement‐Assisted Erasure Purifies Oxidized MXene for Reuse

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An erasure‐purification strategy removes surface‐derived TiO2 from oxidized Ti3C2Tx MXene by ion‐confinement‐induced interfacial conversion to soluble titanates, followed by brief acid washing. The scalable process enables approximately 70% material recovery, restores electrical conductivity, and recovers functional performance, including high ...

Advantages of solar greenhouse biodrying through the lens of heat balance analysis and simulation comparison under tropical climate conditions

Results in Engineering
The high moisture content of municipal solid waste (MSW) reduces the efficiency of mechanical separation and thermal conversion processes. Biodrying, which involves the water evaporation from MSW through heat generated by microbial activity, offers an ...

The renewable energy and energy efficiency potential of Waitakere City : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Technology in Energy Management at Massey University [PDF]

, 2005
Electricity restrictions and blackouts have occurred in Waitakere City in the past and are likely to occur again in the future unless the city can become more self reliant by meeting, at least in part, the increasing energy requirements for what is one ...

Ultrafast Electron Transfer Coupled with a Proton Relay in an Anisotropic Dual S‐Scheme Heterojunction for Overcoming Kinetics Mismatch in H2O2 Photosynthesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An anisotropic dual S‐scheme heterojunction (C3N4/SubPc‐1/C3N5) is constructed to overcome the electron–proton kinetics mismatch in photocatalytic H2O2 production. The imide bridge serves as a dual channel for ultrafast electron transfer and proton relay, synergistically enabling efficient dual‐pathway oxygen reduction and achieving a high H2O2 ...
