Light-Driven MXene-Based Microrobots: Mineralization of Bisphenol A to CO2 and H2O

Lukas Dekanovsky et al.

Summary: Light-driven magnetic MXene-based microrobots (MXeBOTs) have been developed for efficient removal and degradation of bisphenol A (BPA). The MXeBOTs utilize embedded Fe2O3 nanoparticles (NPs) for magnetic propulsion and grafted bismuth NPs as cocatalysts. The stability and reusability of MXeBOTs are studied in relation to BPA concentration and chemical composition of the swimming environment.

Underwater superoleophobic membrane with hydrophobic bump and hydrophilic sublayer structure for effective oil-in-water emulsions separation

Qi Zhong et al.

Summary: Underwater superoleophobic membranes are a competitive strategy for efficient oil-in-water emulsion separation. The reduction of pore size may decrease the permeating flux of water, while the presence of a large amount of oil phase may block the pore canal, resulting in decreased separation performance. A hydrophobic/hydrophilic structured membrane was fabricated using hexadecyltrimethoxysilane (HDTMS) modified SiO2 (H-SiO2) microparticles on a polydopamine (PDA) hydrophilized polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF, PDP) membrane. This membrane effectively decreases oil fouling and breaks the trade-off effect between separation efficiency and permeation flux.

Bubble-propelled micro/nanomotors: a robust platform for the detection of environmental pollutants and biosensing

Suvendu Kumar Panda et al.

Summary: The sensitive detection of environmental pollutants and bio-analytes is crucial for monitoring environmental and health conditions. However, existing sensor platforms often require complex technology and skilled personnel, limiting their use in low- and middle-income countries. The development of self-propelled micro/nanomotors based on the bubble propulsion mechanism has shown great potential for sensing due to their versatility and enhanced performance. These micro/nanomotors can convert external energy into kinetic energy and achieve complex tasks. In this review, we highlight the progress and challenges in using bubble-propelled micro/nanomotors for the sensitive detection of environmental pollutants and bio-analytes.

Upcycling Waste Pine nut Shell Membrane for Highly Efficient Separation of Crude Oil-in-Water Emulsion

Haoyu Li et al.

Summary: The discharge of oily sewage and frequent oil spills have caused serious harm to human production, life, and the ecological environment. The presence of surfactants in water makes oil-water mixtures form oil-in-water emulsions which are difficult to separate using traditional methods. The oily wastewater containing water-soluble pollutants like dyes and heavy metal ions also poses great harm to human health and the environment. A cost-efficient and environmentally friendly underwater superoleophobic pine nut shell membrane (PNSM) was prepared, which allows the separation of oil-in-water emulsion and adsorption of dyes and heavy metal ions. The PNSM also showed excellent toughness and flexibility, making it a promising candidate for multifunctional oily water remediation.

The adsorption process followed chemisorption and fitted well with PSO and Langmuir models. The maximum adsorption capacity of the activated SCG was 188.68 mg/g. Furthermore, the activated SCG showed excellent performance and high reusability in consecutive uses.
