Here, we review boron nitride nanomaterials with focus on synthesis, functionalization, and application in environmental remediation, energy production and storage, and chemical sensing. Nanomaterials synthesis is done by ball‐milling or acoustic cavitation‐assisted exfoliation, hard and soft template methods, calcination, hydro‐ and solvothermal methods, chemical vapor deposition, arc discharge, laser ablation, microwave, carbothermal reduction, coprecipitation, and electrospinning. Water pollutants are removed by adsorption or by photocatalysis using nanomaterials. Nanomaterials are used for hydrogen production and storage, and for sensing of pollutants and gases. Electrospinning and non‐template methods produce materials with high surface areas of 0.7–1,900 m<sup>2</sup>/g, and are cost‐effective and scalable. Pollutant removal efficiency ranges from 15 to 2,989 mg/g for cadmium, 20 to 808 mg/g for copper, 31 to 1,030 mg/g for methylene blue, 60 to 794 mg/g for crystal violet, 75 to 82% for ciprofloxacin, and 80 to 100% for tetracycline.

The electrochemical synthesis of ammonia induces less greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel dependence than the traditional Haber–Bosch process. Here we review the electrocatalytic synthesis of ammonia with focus on mechanisms, transition metal catalysts, and economic aspects. Ammonia is synthesized by reduction of dinitrogen, nitrate, or nitric oxide. Catalysts mainly comprise copper-, iron-, and cobalt-based compounds, with recent research focusing on bimetallic and trimetallic catalysts, single-atom catalysts, three-dimensional nanostructures, and sulfides/phosphides. Copper-based catalysts appear as the most active due to their unique electronic configuration. Catalyst design is optimized by calculation of the Gibbs free energy and the adsorption energy. The common mechanisms involved in electrocatalytic ammonia (NH<sub>3</sub>) synthesis are dissociative and associative pathways. Strategies for enhancing the Faraday efficiency and ammonia yield include structural optimization, facet engineering, vacancy engineering, and single-atom construction. The cost of electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis becomes competitive with the Haber–Bosch processes at an electricity price below $0.024 per KW and a Faraday efficiency higher than 80%.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":541,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Chemistry Letters","volume":"23 5","pages":"1247 - 1273"},"PeriodicalIF":20.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144130516","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we synthesized a fibrous silica-wrapped silicoaluminophosphate catalyst by microemulsion and seed-assisted hydrothermal method. This catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffractometer, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen physisorption, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and ammonia temperature-programmed desorption. The catalytic performance was evaluated from 300 to 500 °C, followed by a stability test conducted at 500 °C for 30 h. Coke deposition on spent catalysts was analyzed using thermal gravimetric analysis, oxygen temperature-programmed oxidation, ultraviolet–visible, and Raman spectroscopy. Results show a 54% extension of the catalyst lifetime, and a 31.4%w reduction in coke formation. These findings are explained by the fibrous silica wrapping that creates a surplus mesoporosity beyond conventional hierarchical structure, enabling improved accessibility, reduced diffusion resistance, and suppressed coke formation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":541,"journal":{"name":"Environmental Chemistry Letters","volume":"23 6","pages":"1467 - 1472"},"PeriodicalIF":20.4,"publicationDate":"2025-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10311-025-01845-4.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144104295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Cell painting-based phenomics was used to map phenotypic alterations across subcellular structures, and untargeted metabolomics using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry was employed to assess metabolic changes. Results show that perfluorooctanesulfonic acid predominantly affected the actin cytoskeleton, Golgi apparatus, and plasma membrane, while nanoplastics primarily targeted mitochondria. Combined exposure disrupted the endoplasmic reticulum, RNA, and mitochondria. Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid reduced levels of carnitines, free fatty acids, nucleotides, and sugars, whereas nanoplastics inhibited ceramides, triglycerides, sphingomyelins, and additional free fatty acids. Combined exposure produced a metabolic profile resembling that of nanoplastics, with specific differences attributed to perfluorooctanesulfonic acid.
