Interface-engineered iron single-atom biohybrids for efficient CO 2 -to-bioplastic conversion
Abstract A hybrid system combining water electrolysis and H2 autotrophic microorganism enables sustainable CO2 valorization, but is hindered by low H2 bioavailability and sluggish hydrogenase kinetics. Here, we report an interface-engineered inorganic–biological biohybrid, constructed by covalently anchoring iron single-atom catalysts (ISA) onto Cupriavidus necator (C.N@ISA) via click chemistry.

Raman-validated image learning enables microplastic prescreening and electronic-waste candidate prioritization
Abstract Microplastic (MP) identification in wastewater treatment remains constrained by the need to verify visually selected particles individually by micro-Raman spectroscopy. Here, we developed a Raman-validated microscopic image-learning workflow for a full-scale wastewater treatment plant receiving domestic sewage and electronic waste (e-waste) dismantling wastewater.

Orthogonal relay system for efficient CO-to-ethanol electrosynthesis
Abstract The electrosynthesis of ethanol from carbon monoxide (CO) can potentially provide low-carbon-intensity fuels and platform chemicals. However, the process performance is compromised by low selectivity, due to the predominant generation of competing products, especially ethylene. Here, we show an orthogonal relay catalysis mechanism that lowers the hydrogenation energy barrier while suppressing carbon-oxygen (C−O) cleavage.

The relationship between green market risk aversion and climate risk: evidence from dynamic mean and volatility spillovers
Abstract This study investigates the time-varying salience of risk aversion in mainstream green bond and equity markets. Further, we examine the mean and volatility transmissions between a new indicator of climate risk, which is the media climate change concern (MCCC) index, and risk aversion of green markets from both static and dynamic perspectives. We find that risk aversion of green markets follows a non-monotonic random walk with high oscillations.

Three-dimensional cationic covalent organic framework membranes for rapid and selective lithium extraction from saline water - Nature Water
Abstract The development of high-efficiency ion transport membranes is of great importance in the fields of energy, water purification and resource recovery. In the application of lithium extraction from salt lakes, membranes dominated by size sieving and Donnan exclusion typically enhance Li+/Mg2+ selectivity by sacrificing Li+ flux, which inevitably increases the energy consumption of the separation dramatically.
Site-selective protonation enables efficient carbon monoxide electroreduction to acetate - Nature Communications
Abstract Electrosynthesis of acetate from CO offers the prospect of a low-carbon-intensity route to this valuable chemical––but only once sufficient selectivity, reaction rate and stability are realized. It is a high priority to achieve the protonation of the relevant intermediates in a controlled fashion, and to achieve this while suppressing the competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and while steering multicarbon (C2+) products to a single valuable product––an example of which is acetate.

Classification, function, and advances in tsRNA in non-neoplastic diseases - Cell Death & Disease
Abstract tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) are non-coding small RNAs produced by specific endonucleases following the processing and splicing of precursor or mature tRNAs upon starvation, oxidative stress, hypoxia, and other adverse conditions. tRNAs are classified into two major categories, tRNA fragments (tRFs) and tRNA-derived stress-induced small RNAs (tiRNAs), based on differences in splice sites.

Copper-surface-mediated synthesis of acetylenic carbon-rich nanofibers for active metal-free photocathodes
The impetus for the current synthetic strategy is derived from the observation that metallic copper is able to produce CuI/II species in polar liquids or alkaline solutions31,32. As both CuI and CuII salts have been widely used as catalysts for Glaser coupling reaction33,34, we expected that the Cu species generated from the metallic copper surface would be able to catalyze the C–C coupling reaction, which could afford acetylenic frameworks on a solid substrate (Supplementary Fig. 1).
