Article Abstract
Ceramic membrane dewatering and filtration technology is effective in reducing the water content of the phosphate slurry. However, membrane fouling remains an unavoidable issue. Herein, by investigating the mechanism of membrane contamination and developing innovative cleaning solutions, we can effectively address this issue. The main fouling form of ceramic membranes was observed to be complete blockage through analysis of the fouling process at various pollution time intervals by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and mathematical model fitting. In addition, after cleaning severely contaminated membranes with a pollution rate of approximately 90%, a cleaning agent composed of surfactants, acid-washing agents, chelating agents, and auxiliaries was developed to address the phosphate contaminants. Owing to the combined effect of the detergent components, heavily soiled ceramic membranes can achieve a high flux recovery rate of over 90% after cleaning. This work offers new insights into ceramic membrane fouling and cleaning during phosphate slurry filtration.

Silicon carbide (SiC) membranes combine exceptional chemical, thermal, and mechanical stability but suffer from surface inertness that precludes functionalization. Conversely, MOFs offer unmatched molecular selectivity but are typically powders, severely limiting their practical use. To address this, we develop a generalizable route to fabricate ultrastable MOF@SiC membranes via sequential oxidation and acidification, creating abundant Si-OH sites on SiC surfaces that covalently bond with Zr-MOF crystals; the bonding mechanism between MOFs and substrates has been extensively studied.

Overcoming the high-temperature limitations of ceramic fuel cells (CFCs) requires the development of electrolytes capable of efficient proton transport at reduced operating temperatures. In this work, we introduced a surface-engineered SrTiO electrolyte coated with 10 mol%-CeO, forming a core-shell heterostructure that promoted the formation of oxygen vacancies localized at the interface. These vacancies significantly reduced the energy barrier for proton migration, enabling enhanced ionic conductivity at low operating temperatures.

High safety gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) is used in lithium metal solid state batteries, which has the advantages of high energy density, wide temperature range, high safety, and is considered as a subversive new generation battery technology. However, solid-state lithium batteries with multiple layers and large capacity currently have poor cycle life and a large gap between the actual output cycle capacity retention rate and the theoretical level. In this paper, polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-lithium perchlorate (LiClO)-lithium lanthanum zirconium tantalate (LLZTO) gel polymer electrolytes was prepared by UV curing process using a UV curing machine at a speed of 0.

The scarcity and high price seriously hinder the large-scale industrial application of Pt as the preferred catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). A PtMo@MoC catalytic electrode was designed based on a porous MoC ceramic membrane with finger-like holes, where PtMo nanograins were uniformly embedded in the surface of the MoC grains by electrodeposition and thermal reduction. The loading of Pt is as small as 7.

Developing high-performance membranes for efficient oil-water emulsion separation is essential for advancing sustainable and cost-effective wastewater treatment technologies. MXenes, as emerging two-dimensional materials, offer distinct advantages due to their inherent hydrophilicity, chemical stability, and mechanical durability. In this work, ceramic membranes were surface-modified with vanadium carbide (VC) MXene, a relatively underexplored member of the MXene family, and systematically characterized and evaluated for oil-in-water emulsion separation.
