Recent Advances in the Support Layer, Interlayer and Active Layer of TFC and TFN Organic Solvent Nanofiltration (OSN) Membranes: A Review
This study aims to review recent advances in TFC and TFN membranes fabricated for organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) applications. Here, we will first study the materials used to fabricate the support layer, not only the membranes which are not stable in organic solvents and require to be cross-linked, but also those which are inherently stable in harsh media and do not need any cross-linking step, and all of their advantages and disadvantages. Then, we will study the effects of fabricating different interlayers on the performance of the membranes, and the mechanisms of introducing an interlayer in the regulation of the ...

A Comprehensive Review on Perovskite Solar Cells Integrated Photo-supercapacitors and Perovskites-Based Electrochemical Supercapacitors
Chem Rec. 2023 Aug 29:e202300183. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300183. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPerovskite solar cells (PSCs) have rapidly become a prevalent photovoltaic technology owing to their simple structure, low processing cost, and remarkable increase in solar-to-electric power conversion efficiency (PCE). However, the intermittent nature of solar radiation induces some technical and financial challenges for its practical applications as a reliable power source. To address this issue, the integration of PSCs with supercapacitors (SCs) in the form of integrated photo-supercapacitors (IPSs) has gathered significant atten...

Applications of Carbon-Based Materials in Activated Peroxymonosulfate for the Degradation of Organic Pollutants: A Review
Chem Rec. 2023 Aug 28:e202300203. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300203. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn recent years, water pollution has posed a serious threat to aquatic organisms and humans. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on activated peroxymonosulfate (PMS) show high oxidation, good selectivity, wide pH range and no secondary pollution in the removal of organic pollutants in water. Carbon-based materials are emerging green catalysts that can effectively activate persulfates to generate radical and non-radical active species to degrade organic pollutants. Compared with transition metal catalysts, carbon-based material...

Electrochemical Biosensors Based on Enzyme Inhibition Effect
Chem Rec. 2023 Aug 28:e202300214. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300214. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSeveral electrochemical biosensors based on various enzyme inhibition effects have been designed; their laboratory prototypes have been manufactured and thoroughly investigated. It should be noted that such biosensors are adapted to large-scale production technologies. A number of advantages and disadvantages of developed biosensors based on enzyme inhibition has been discussed. It is important that all developed biosensors are not opposite to traditional analytical methods, but complement them. This is an additional system of quick...

Anti-Freezing Electrolytes in Aqueous Multivalent Metal-Ion Batteries: Progress, Challenges, and Optimization Strategies
Chem Rec. 2023 Aug 22:e202300212. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300212. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAqueous rechargeable multivalent metal-ion batteries (ARMMBs) have attracted considerable attention due to their high capacity, high energy density, and low cost. However, their performance is often limited by low temperature operation, which requires the development of anti-freezing electrolytes. In this review, we summarize the anti-freezing mechanisms and optimization strategies of anti-freezing electrolytes for aqueous batteries (especially for Zn-ion batteries). Besides, we investigate the possible interactions and side reactio...

Development of Membranes and Separators to Inhibit Cross-Shuttling of Sulfur in Polysulfide-Based Redox Flow Batteries: A Review
Chem Rec. 2023 Aug 22:e202300171. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300171. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe global rapid transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy resources necessitates the implementation of long-duration energy storage technologies owing to the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources. Therefore, the deployment of grid-scale energy storage systems is inevitable. Sulfur-based batteries can be exploited as excellent energy storage devices owing to their intrinsic safety, low cost of raw materials, low risk of environmental hazards, and highest theoretical capacities (gravimetric: 2600 Wh/kg and volumetric...
