Interfacial reactions drive all elemental cycling on Earth and play pivotal roles in human
activities such as agriculture, water purification, energy production and storage …

The interactions between clay minerals and organic matter, specifically adsorption, are
widely recognized as a crucial mechanism for promoting the preservation of organic matter …

Inorganic scaling caused by precipitation of sparingly soluble salts at supersaturation is a
common but critical issue, limiting the efficiency of membrane-based desalination and brine …

Despite the fact that oral microecologics are effective in modulating the gut microbiome, they
always suffer from multiple insults during the journey from manufacture to arrival at the …

All solid materials are created via nucleation. In this evolutionary process, nuclei form in
solution or at interfaces, expand by monomeric growth and oriented attachment, and …

Remediation of large and dilute plumes of groundwater contaminated by oxidized pollutants
such as chromate is a common and difficult challenge. Herein, we show that in situ formation …

The formation of solid inorganic salts from solutions is of fundamental importance for
industrial, geological, and biological processes. Here, we review the literature on the …

Mineral carbon storage in mafic and ultramafic rock masses has the potential to be an
effective and permanent mechanism to reduce anthropogenic CO2. Several successful pilot …

Sulfate scaling, as insoluble inorganic sulfate deposits, can cause serious operational
problems in various industries, such as blockage of membrane pores and subsurface media …

Mineralization of collagen is critical for the mechanical functions of bones and teeth. Calcium
phosphate nucleation in collagenous structures follows distinctly different patterns in highly …
