Herein, an EMR-P with full-cell reactions was constructed using a carbon membrane (CM) as the cathode and a TiO2-loaded CM as the anode. Noteworthy, this proposed innovative design has no ion-exchange membrane and consists of two permeates for anodic electrocatalytic and cathodic electro-Fenton processes. Results showed that the removal rates of phenol and COD by EMR-P were 99.2% and 93.9%, respectively, with energy consumption of 0.43 kWh kg COD–1, which were superior to those of other EMRs. Such superior performance of EMR-P was attributed to the synergism of electro-Fenton and electrocatalytic oxidation, as well as the high adsorption property of CM, which promoted ({1atop}{rm{O}}_{2}) generation and COD removal. Additionally, the cathode made more contribution to the COD removal (59.0%) than the anode (41.0%). Overall, this work provides several insights into the design of EMRs for cleaning industrial wastewater.","PeriodicalId":19375,"journal":{"name":"npj Clean Water","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142934933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Microplastics in multidammed, single-dammed, and nondammed rivers are significantly different in three categories: abundance, flux, and inventory. Artificial damming can lead to multicategory reorganization of riverine microplastics, including size, polymer type, shape, and color. Artificial damming has led to the formation of microplastic hotspots in river waters and sediments due to reduced river mobility. Notably, low-velocity regions in non-dammed rivers are high hotspot for microplastic deposition, and their inventories may even be 10.63–12.71 times higher than those of other riverbeds. Additionally, results based on microplastic abundance differ significantly from those based on microplastic loads, which in some cases even showed contradictory results. Therefore, future studies must incorporate microplastic loads into the assessment to enhance our understanding of the fate of microplastics in river systems.","PeriodicalId":19375,"journal":{"name":"npj Clean Water","volume":"117 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":11.4,"publicationDate":"2025-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142929602","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, a novel concept of process-heat-supplied and an ACES cycle with this technique is proposed. A comprehensive thermodynamic analytical investigation is conducted. The results indicate that at heat source supply temperature Tsupply of only 45.17 °C, this novel unit is capable of achieving complete separation of water and salt from 5 wt% concentration brine. Meanwhile, thermodynamic mechanism analysis reveals that sufficient process-heat-supplied affords the fluid self-adaptive regulation on the driving potential of heat and mass transfer, thus circumventing traditional heat and mass transfer limitation. Additionally, a solar ACES system with process-heat-supplied incorporating heat pump is further proposed. For this system, theoretical evaporation rate for unit area of solar irradiation me-solar = 2.23 kg/(m2·h), integrated solar utilization efficiency ηi = 188%; while considering overall losses me-solar = 1.41 kg/(m2·h), ηi = 95.2%.","PeriodicalId":19375,"journal":{"name":"npj Clean Water","volume":" ","pages":"1-21"},"PeriodicalIF":10.4,"publicationDate":"2024-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.nature.com/articles/s41545-024-00430-6.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142887950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
