Noncovalent interactions, which usually feature tunable strength, reversibility, and
environmental adaptability, have been recognized as driving forces in a variety of biological …

Biochar (BC) has exhibited a great potential to remove water contaminants due to its wide
availability of raw materials, high surface area, developed pore structure, and low cost …

Background With rapid development in agriculture and industry, water polluted with heavy
metallic ions has come to be a serious problem. Adsorption-based methods are simple …

To address the pollution of heavy metal ions in water resources, a novel self-assembled
nitrogen-doped carbon dots (NCDs) crosslinked, cellulose nanofibril (CNF) and chitosan …

Chemical hydrogels have been extensively applied to the removal of heavy metal pollutants.
However, most of chemical hydrogels inevitably contain toxic chemical crosslinker residues …

In the application of various magnetic materials for water treatment, control of surface
resistance to acid and alkali corrosion remains largely overlooked, which could greatly …

Despite the high-efficiency and low-cost prospect for perovskite solar cells, great concerns of
lead toxicity and instability remain for this technology. Here, we report an encapsulation …

Hydrogels are being investigated recently for wastewater treatment. These polymeric
networks permit their functional group alterations imparting high binding affinity for different …

Many effluents contain various antibiotics commonly, where the simultaneous removal of
them is a big challenge. In this study, the magnetic biocomposite (eggshell-zeolitic …

A novel poly (acrylic acid) grafted chitosan and biochar composite (PAA/CTS/BC) for highly
efficient and selective capture of heavy metals (HMs) was prepared. PAA/CTS/BC showed …
