Summary: Polyoxometalates (POMs) are emerging as advanced electrode materials for energy storage due to their distinctive structure and high stability. Structural engineering at the molecular level can improve the long-term stability and conductivity of POMs. In this study, POMs and zeolitic imidazole framework (ZIF-67) were assembled to enhance the charge storage capacity and prevent dissolution. The resulting nanocomposites exhibited excellent electrochemical performance in different electrolytes, and the integration of POM and loofah sponge derived carbon (LSC) extended the potential range for high energy density supercapacitors.

Summary: In recent years, there has been increased attention on wastewater treatment for removing tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) in water treatment. A ZIF-67/C3N4 composite adsorbent, composed of nanosheet structured material stacked with MOFs, was prepared using in situ growth method, and demonstrated high adsorption activity for TCH in wastewater. Comparing monomeric and composite adsorbents, Z(6)C(2) showed the best adsorption effect (206 mg•g(-1)), which was 77.6% higher than ZIF-67 (116 mg•g(-1)) and 10.8 times higher than C3N4 (19 mg•g(-1)). The structure of ZIF-67 stacked on C3N4 nanosheets provides an excellent specific surface area, active sites, π-π interactions, electrostatic interactions, and hydrogen bonding interactions, all of which contribute to enhanced adsorption performance. The adsorption process involves chemisorption, mass transport, and internal diffusion rate-limiting. Additionally, monolayer adsorption and a heat absorption reaction were observed during the process. The adsorbent exhibits good stability and adsorption capacity, making it suitable for efficient and low-cost water purification.

Summary: This paper introduces a novel multi-task learning data-driven model called GBLS Booster for accurately assessing the state of health (SOH) and remaining useful life (RUL) of lithium batteries. The model combines the strengths of GBLS and the CNN-Transformers algorithm-based Booster, and the Tree-structured Parzen Estimator (TPE) algorithm is used for optimization. The study devises 10 healthy indicators (HIs) derived from readily available sensor data to capture variations in battery SOH. The random forest method (RF) is employed for feature refinement and data dimension reduction, while the complete empirical mode decomposition (CEEMDAN) method and the Pearson correlation coefficient are used for noise reduction and data point elimination in RUL prediction. The proposed model demonstrates exceptional accuracy, robustness, and generalization capabilities.
