Water conflict and scarcity is a present reality world-wide, For high peak demands,hydrologic limitations required either finding a bigger source or building sufficient storage.This paper provides a well-documented case study of water reuse by proposing alternativeindustrial water harvest at the largest petrochemical complex of Latin America locate...

Hierarchical surfaces that aid in the droplet nucleation, growth, and removal is highly desirable for fog and moisture harvesting applications. Taking inspiration from the unique architecture of leaf skeletons, we present a multiscale surface capable of rapidly nucleating, growing, and directional transport of the water droplets. Copper oxide micro...

Here, a soft electropolymerization approach (called templateless) is used to prepare extremely ordered porous surface structures. For the first time, benzotrithiophene-based monomers are chosen for their high aromaticity and exceptional electropolymerization capacity. Different parameters are tested such as the nature of the substituent, the presen...

Water harvesting from air is desired for decentralized water supply wherever water is needed. When water vapor is condensed as droplets on a surface the unremoved droplets act as thermal barriers. A surface that can provide continual droplet-free areas for nucleation is favorable for condensation water harvesting. Here, we report a flow-separation...

Herein, we report a facile post-synthetic linkage conversion method giving synthetic access to nitrone-linked covalent organic frameworks from imine-and amine-linked COFs. The new, 2D nitrone-linked covalent organic frameworks, NO-PI-3-COF and NO-TTI-COF are obtained with high crystallinity and large surface areas. Nitrone-modified pore channels in...

Water has always been a driver of human civilization. The first human civilizations thrived in places with an abundance of water, typically nearby large rivers as the Tigris–Euphrates, Yang Che and Nile. The invention and construction of hydraulic infrastructure came only later, in prehistoric times, triggered by the expansion of humanity in water-...
