Membrane aerated biofilm reactor (MABR) is a promising technology for dramatically reducing aeration energy consumption in wastewater treatment. However, the crucial membranes, including microporous hydrophobic membranes and dense membranes, are intolerant to fouling and possess high oxygen transfer resistance respectively, hindering their application potential. Herein, we developed a tolerant and highly-permeable membrane aerated biofilm reactor (THMABR) with a selective armor layer on the membrane to support the biofilm.

- - Lithium ion sieve adsorbents are effective for extracting liquid lithium due to their efficient adsorption and cost-effectiveness, but their performance is heavily influenced by the pH of the environment.
- - The pH impacts adsorption through two main factors: competition with impurity ions and variations in surface zeta potential, which are addressed by a dual-matrix modulation adsorbent using modified carrier and adsorption matrices.
- - This dual-matrix approach significantly boosts the adsorption capacity and selectivity of the lithium ion sieve, surpassing traditional manganese-based adsorbents, while also minimizing pH-related issues and achieving consistent performance under various conditions.
The uterus is considered to be a unique wound-healing model and distinguished by the repeated shedding of the endometrium and self-traceless regeneration. Common curettage, cesarean section, and other operations often cause endometrial and myometrial defects and obstetric and gynecological complications, leading to a high demand for uterine repair or partial replacement. However, the structure and function of the uterus are complicated.

- Solar-driven interfacial evaporation (SIE) is a promising method to address water shortages but faces challenges from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that contaminate the distilled water.
- The introduction of a 3D photocatalytic solar evaporator, made from a porous sponge with BiOBrI nanosheets, improves the rejection of VOCs during the evaporation process.
- This innovative system significantly reduces VOC levels in distilled water, achieving detection limits of less than 0.001 mg/L for contaminants like phenol in river water, thus enhancing water safety.
