Article Abstract
A novel inverted advanced treatment process of ozone/hydrogen peroxide (O/HO) and biological activated carbon fluidized bed (BACFB) before the conventional process has been developed to treat the high-algae-laden reservoir water, which aims to enhance the removal of dissolved organic matter (DOM), odorants as well as the precursors of disinfection by-products (DBPs). Before and after the renovation, the average value of chemical oxygen demand (determined by potassium permanganate method) in the filter effluent decreased from 2.18 to 1.15 mg/L. Likewise, the average concentrations of turbidity dropped from 0.640 to 0.098 NTU, indicating substantial improvement following the renovation. Formation potential of DBPs such as trihalomethanes and haloacetic acids were also reduced greatly. The results of the polarity rapid analysis method indicated that ozonation primarily removed non-polar and positively charged organic matter, while coagulation-sedimentation targeted non-positive organic matter. The results of fluorescence spectroscopy and high-resolution mass spectrometry indicated that the new process effectively removed DOM, and decreased the number of nitrogen-containing compounds. Additionally, the inverted O/HO and BACFB process promoted the dynamic transformation between DOM components and significantly reduced overall aromatic content. This study provided a promising solution for treating high-algae-laden source water and verified the feasibility and effectiveness of this novel process in practice.

The turnover of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in soil regulated by biodegradable microplastics (MPs) has garnered much attention due to its profound impact on the storage and stability of soil organic matter. However, the transformation and reactivity of plant-derived and microbially derived DOM by microorganisms adapted to biodegradable MPs, and the involved microbial physiological processes, remain nearly unknown. Here, we added virgin and aged polylactic acid (PLA) and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) to agricultural soils and incubated for 56 days.

Perovskite materials have revolutionized optoelectronics by virtue of their tunable bandgaps, exceptional optoelectronic properties, and structural flexibility. Notably, the state-of-the-art performance of perovskite solar cells has reached 27%, making perovskite materials a promising candidate for next-generation photovoltaic technology. Although numerous reviews regarding perovskite materials have been published, the existing reviews generally focus on individual material systems (e.

The construction of strong metal-support interactions (SMSI) is an effective strategy to enhance and control heterogeneous catalysts. However, conventional methods require pre-synthesized metal-loaded catalysts, followed by SMSI formation via high-temperature treatment under oxidative/reductive atmospheres, adsorbate-mediated treatment, and photo-treatment, adding complexity to catalyst synthesis and hindering continuous interfacial tuning. In this work, a "photobreeding" method is employed to treat ZnCdS, leveraging the UV-induced photochromic reaction of ZnS to generate metallic Zn at room temperature, while CdS remains inert.

Sonocatalytic therapy (SCT) is a non-invasive tumor treatment modality that utilizes ultrasound (US)- activated sonocatalysts to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), whose production critically dependent on the electronic structural properties of the catalytic sites. However, the spin state, which is a pivotal descriptor of electronic properties, remains underappreciated in SCT. Herein, a Ti-doped zirconium-based MOF (Ti-UiO-66, denoted as UTN) with ligand-deficient defects is constructed for SCT, revealing the important role of the electronic spin state in modulating intrinsic catalytic activity.

The photovoltaic performance of CuZnSn(S,Se) is limited by open-circuit voltage losses (ΔV) in the radiative (ΔV) and non-radiative (ΔV) limits, due to sub-bandgap absorption and deep defects, respectively. Recently, several devices with power conversion efficiencies approaching 15% have been reported, prompting renewed interest in the possibility that the key performance-limiting factors have been addressed. In this work, we analyze the sources of ΔV in these devices and offer directions for future research.
