In this study, cellulose fibers were extracted from corn husks and magnetized by co-precipitation method. To increase the total pore volume and surface area, magnetic cellulose (FeO-Cellulose) was modified with metal-organic frameworks (Al-MOFs) and used as a low-cost biosorbent for doxorubicin removal. Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method results showed that the specific surface area of magnetic cellulose after modification with MOFs increased from 106.89 m/g to 117.26 m/g. Influential parameters such as the initial concentration of doxorubicin, pH, dosage of adsorbent, and time were optimized by the Taguchi method. The optimized conditions were found to be 20 mg/L initial concentration, 2 g/L dosages of adsorbent, pH 6, and time 80 min. The adsorption isotherm study revealed that the adsorption process with and without ultrasonic waves follows the Freundlich and Langmuir models, respectively. Also, the study of the effect of ultrasound waves on adsorption efficiency revealed that ultrasound waves improve adsorption capacity from 96 to 108 mg/g through the cavitation phenomenon. Additionally, the study of the desorption and reusability showed that the efficient adsorption of DOX decreased from 92.89 % to 80.15 % after 7 cycles. This adsorbent has a favorable adsorption capacity compared to other adsorbents reported in the literature. Therefore, FeO-Cellulose/Al-MOFs nanocomposite combined with ultrasonic technique can be used as a fast adsorbent with favorable adsorption capacity for doxorubicin removal.

Porous KTi(PO) nanoparticles are synthesized via a solvothermal method and subsequently modified with nitrogen-doped carbon layers by using polydopamine as the carbon source. The resultant KTi(PO)@N-doped carbon composite (KTP@NC) exhibits a preserved porous structure with abundant pores, facilitating ion diffusion and electrolyte infiltration. Various characterizations, including X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy, reveal the successful formation of an interconnected nitrogen-doped carbon network.

Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a minimally invasive, non-thermal tumor ablation technique that induces nanoscale membrane perforation, leading to immunogenic cell death (ICD). However, IRE alone is limited by uneven electric field attenuation, incomplete tumor ablation, and the immunosuppressive nature of the tumor microenvironment. To address these challenges, a multifunctional nanomaterial, vermiculite nanosheets/calcium peroxide nanosheets (VMT/CaO NSs), is developed to enhance the efficacy of IRE.

Adsorbed natural gas (ANG) storage is emerging as a promising alternative to traditional compressed and liquefied storage methods. However, its onboard application is restricted by low volumetric methane storage capacity. Flexible porous adsorbents offer a potential solution, as their dense structures and unique gate-opening effects are well-suited to enhance volumetric capacity under high pressures.

The delicate construction of electrocatalysts with high catalytic activity is a strategic method to enhance the kinetics of lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs). Adjusting the local structure of the catalyst is always crucial for understanding the structure-activity relationship between atomic structure and catalyst performance. Here, in situ induction of electron-deficient B enables phase engineering MoC, realizing the transition from hexagonal (h-MoC) to cubic phase (c-B-MoC).

With the advancement of industrial production and urban modernization, pollution from heavy metal ions and the accumulation of solid waste have become critical global environmental challenges. Establishing an effective recycling system for solid waste and removing heavy metals from wastewater is essential. Coal gangue was used in this study as the primary material for the synthesis of a fully coal gangue-based phosphorus-silicon-aluminum (SAPO-5) molecular sieve through a hydrothermal process.
