Exciting new findings in groundwater purification! Researchers from the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have recently discovered that nitrate can enrich the natural purification of groundwater, increasing the removal of organic contaminants. Read more about their ground-breaking findings via Phys.org here:

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

An « out of the box thinking » exercise for the chemical community interested in catalysis for the ecological transition. Read it before writing the introduction of your next paper!

A recent publication, with lead author Zhanar Zhakiyeva, PhD, focuses on an experiment looking at the hydrated phases inside cement that are key to its strength.  Zhanar wrote a science highlight for our website, saying: “Neutrons are ideal for studying water dynamics because of the large scattering cross section of hydrogen."

You really should take the time to listen to what this scientist has to say about the misinformation surrounding plastics. This is a very insightful conversation on the benefits of plastics as compared to competitive materials. Let me know your thoughts. https://lnkd.in/eU3Gf4_N

Quality and quantity both matters. Both are complimentary to each other. Discussing long may be good for thought but at the end of the number also matters.

Citing his "groundbreaking work in innovative materials for carbon capture, energy storage and water harvesting,” the Taiwan-based Tang Foundation has awarded its 2024 Tang Prize in Sustainable Development to Atoco founder Prof. Omar Yaghi.   Founded by renowned construction engineer Dr. Samuel Yen-Liang Yin in 2012, the Tang Prize recognizes extraordinary achievements in the fields of Sustainable Development, Biopharmaceutical Science, Sinology, and Rule of Law. The prize, says the Tang Foundation, is intended "to gather the wisdom mankind needs to tackle the crises unique to the 21st century.”   In the case of Prof. Yaghi, such wisdom centers on his pioneering work in reticular chemistry—a new way of making materials by stitching organic and inorganic units into extraordinarily porous yet robust metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs). These frameworks can be manipulated with atomic precision to perform specific tasks such as selectively capturing carbon dioxide from flue gases and the atmosphere, dramatically increasing the storage volumes of gases such as methane and hydrogen, and harvesting potable water from desert air.   For more about the Tange Prize and its laureates, go to: https://lnkd.in/d8sK2v_2 #MOFs #COFs #Reticularchemistry #atmosphericwaterharvesting #carboncapture #CCUS
