Emerging contaminants (ECs) are a diverse group of unregulated pollutants increasingly present in the environment. These contaminants, including pharmaceuticals, personal care products, endocrine disruptors, and industrial chemicals, can enter environment through various pathways persist, accumulating food chain posing risks to ecosystems human health. This comprehensive review examines chemical characteristics, sources, varieties ECs. It critically evaluates current understanding their environmental health impacts, highlighting recent advancements challenges detection analysis. The also assesses existing regulations policies, identifying shortcomings proposing potential enhancements. ECs pose significant wildlife by disrupting animal hormones, causing genetic alterations that diminish diversity resilience, altering soil nutrient dynamics physical Furthermore, increasing health, hormonal disruptions, antibiotic resistance, disruption, neurological effects, carcinogenic other long-term impacts. To address these critical issues, offers recommendations for future research, emphasizing areas requiring further investigation comprehend full implications contaminants. suggests increased funding support development advanced technologies, establishment standardized methods, adoption precautionary regulations, enhanced public awareness education, cross-sectoral collaboration, integration scientific research into policy-making. By implementing solutions, we improve our ability detect, monitor, manage ECs, reducing risks.

Hollow Mo/MoS_Vn Nanoreactors with Tunable Built‐in Electric Fields for Sustainable Hydrogen Production

Advanced Materials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Dec. 8, 2024

Abstract Constructing built‐in electric field (BIEF) in heterojunction catalyst is an effective way to optimize adsorption/desorption of reaction intermediates, while its precise tailor achieve efficient bifunctional electrocatalysis remains great challenge. Herein, the hollow Mo/MoS Vn nanoreactors with tunable BIEFs are elaborately prepared simultaneously promote hydrogen evolution (HER) and urea oxidation (UOR) for sustainable production. The BIEF induced by sulfur vacancies can be modulated from 0.79 0.57 0.42 mV nm −1 , exhibits a parabola‐shaped relationship HER UOR activities, V1 nanoreactor moderate presents best activity. Theoretical calculations reveal that evidently facilitate breakage N─H bond UOR. electrolyzer assembled delivers cell voltage 1.49 V at 100 mA cm −2 which 437 lower than traditional water electrolysis, also excellent durability 200 h. Life cycle assessment indicates HER||UOR system possesses notable superiority across various environment impact energy consumption. This work provide theoretical experimental direction on rational design advanced materials energy‐saving eco‐friendly
