PDMS-coated porous PVDF hollow fiber membranes for efficient recovery of dissolved biomethane from anaerobic effluents by Sethunga, Godakooru Sethunga Mudiyanselage Dilhara Prebhashwari, Karahan, Huseyin Enis, Wang, Rong, Bae, Tae-Hyun

“…Mass transfer analyses have confirmed the importance of preserving bulk porosity while coating the membrane surfaces. The long-term performance tests performed using actual anaerobic effluents suggested that the PDMS coating did not accelerate fouling, such that the lumen-modified MC membranes showed an almost steady flux for 8 days with an anaerobic membrane bioreactor effluent. …”

V4C3TxMXene : a promising active substrate for reactive surface modification and the enhanced electrocatalytic oxygen evolution activity by Du, Cheng‐Feng, Sun, Xiaoli, Yu, Hong, Fang, Wei, Jing, Yao, Wang, Yonghui, Li, Shuiqing, Liu, Xianhu, Yan, Qingyu

“…Attributed to the in situ reconstruction of highly active oxide hydroxide layer, the nanohybrids exhibited an enhanced oxygen evolution reaction (OER) activity and excellent long‐time stability over 70 hours. In particular, a current density of 10 mA cm−2 can be reached by the nanohybrid with the optimized Ni/Fe ratio at an overpotential (η) as low as 275.2 mV, which is comparable to most of the state‐of‐the‐art OER catalysts and better than other MXene‐based derivatives. …”
