Mineral–microbe interactions play important roles in environmental change, biogeochemical
cycling of elements and formation of ore deposits. Minerals provide both beneficial (physical …

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

Herein, an electrochemical (EC) system was applied as “co-catalyst” to enhance the
activation of peroxymonosulfate (EC/Fe (III)/PMS) for efficient Sulfamethoxazole (SMX) …

Clay minerals retain or adsorb metal ions in the Earth's critical zone. Rocks, sediments and
soils rich in clay minerals can concentrate rare earth elements (REEs) in ion adsorption-type …

Heterogeneous Fenton reactions of zero-valent iron (ZVI) requires the sufficient release of
Fe (II) to catalyze the H 2 O 2 decomposition. However, the rate-limiting step of proton …

Electroactive Fe-biochar has attracted significant attention for As (III)/Cr (VI) immobilization
through redox reactions, and its performance essentially lies in the regulation of various …

Fenton and Fenton-like processes, which could produce highly reactive species to degrade
organic contaminants, have been widely used in the field of wastewater treatment. Therein …

Rapid urbanization drives increased emission of tire wear particles (TWPs) and the
contamination of a transformation product derived from tire antioxidant, termed as N-(1, 3 …

Nano‐reduced iron (NRI) is a promising uranium adsorbent due to its strong reducibility and
good selectivity, but it still faces the challenges of slow kinetics, limited and non‐renewable …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play key roles in driving biogeochemical processes. Recent
studies have revealed nonphotochemical electron transfer from redox-active substances …
