The power of sunlight: Predicting global lake pollution reduction through photochemistry
Global distribution of 3CDOM* concentrations in lakes. Credit: Eco Environment and Health The research investigates how natural photochemical reactions can help break down emerging pollutants in freshwater systems, with a particular focus on clofibric acid and diclofenac. This study focuses on the contrasting effects of triplet sensitization and direct photolysis and provides new insights into how these processes can reduce…

Unique copper nanocluster design increases selectivity in COâ‚‚ reduction
Detailed structures of two different Cu14 NCs protected by two different thiols investigated in this study. These NCs exhibit various intercluster interactions that shape the stability and reaction selectivity of the electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction. Credit: Small (2024). DOI: 10.1002/smll.202409910 The humble copper (Cu) may not have the allure of gold or silver, but its incredible versatility makes it invaluable…
