This is such an insightful article. I highly recommend that anyone interested in MXene synthesis read it. Going a step farther and comparing which procedure produces the best (highest conductivity, longest stability) MXene against which is the most environmentally friendly gives me a lot to think about.

The 7th International Advanced Oxidation 2025 will bring forward the most recent advances in the fundamentals and the development and application of the Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOPs), especially in water recycling and reuse. It will help to disseminate new achievements in these areas and to identify future research and development needs through strong cooperation between scientists, engineers, operators, and decision-makers. https://lnkd.in/eEDczndG

This requires knowledge of which components are damaged by which operating conditions and how this can be recognised during operation or after it. This review... ✅ 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 the chemical, physical and electrochemical causes of all degradation mechanisms of state-of-the-art PEM water electrolysis stacks, ✅ 𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗲𝘀 operating conditions, that particularly increase the degradation of individual materials or components, ✅ 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝘂𝘁 how (and how much) degradation phenomena can trigger further degradation, ✅ 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲𝘀 the consequences of degradation, ✅ 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 which degradation phenomena can be observed in the stack during operation or at investigations in lab-scale, whether these can be assigned to individual components or materials, and whether a quantitative statement about the degradation is possible, ✅ 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀 a clear overview of which analysis methods are suitable for this purpose (under the aspects of type of method, time, purpose of application, and invasiveness), ✅ and 𝗱𝗲𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗶𝗯𝗲𝘀 the most common diagnostic tools in an application-oriented manner regarding their advantages, possibilities, and limits.

PhD students Ya Tang, Huan Zhao, and Xiangbei Liu, alum Jace Henry '24, and Professor Yan Li co-authored a study which shows that thermoelectric generators (TEGs) incorporating metamaterial designs offer significant potential to enhance energy harvesting efficiency and broaden application possibilities. "By capturing waste heat from industrial processes, vehicles, and electronic devices, these metamaterial-based TEGs can contribute to energy conservation and promote environmental sustainability," says Li. The study, entitled "Design of metamaterial thermoelectric generators for efficient energy harvesting," was published in Energy Conversion and Management: X ➡️ https://bit.ly/4e4WoXs

Electrolysis is one of the solutions for the renewable energy future. However, the aging of PEM electrolysis continues to be a challenge. If you're interested in a deeper insight into this topic, check out our latest review on it.

Electrochemical gas-evolving reactions play an important role in energy conversion systems. One of the main resistances which increase the overpotential during these reactions is bubble resistance. Superaerophobic surfaces decreases the bubble resistance and consequently overpotential substantially. In our recent review paper, we reviewed the recent advances and perspective of application of superaerophobic surfaces for electrochemical gas-evolving reactions. If you are interested, you can check our paper which published in Advanced Sustainable Systems. Special thanks to my dear hardworking collaborator Dr. Rokhsareh Abedi. https://lnkd.in/gNjv7qui

Achieving high proton conductivity in inorganic solids is key for advancing many electrochemical technologies. DMSE’s Ju Li, Bilge Yildiz, and other collaborators have identified several new candidates that show promise as fast proton conductors.
