Predominant P3-Type Solid-Solution Phase Transition Enables High-Stability O3-Type Na-Ion Cathodes

Layered O3-type oxides are one of the most promising cathode materials for Na-ion batteries owing to their high capacity and straightforward synthesis. However, these materials often experience irreversible structure transitions at elevated cutoff voltages, resulting in compromised cycling stability and rate performance. To address such...

Slight Multielement Doping-Induced Structural Order-Disorder Transition for High-Performance Layered Na-Ion Oxide Cathodes

To realize concurrently the high-energy density and excellent cycling stability, maximum utilization of redox couple, minimization of detrimental phase transition, and structural degradation of O3-type layered oxide cathodes are critical for developing Na-ion batteries. Ni²⁺/Ni⁴⁺ redox couple showing multielectron...

Release behavior of soluble salts in MSWI bottom ash used as road basement materials under continuous rainfall conditions

The bottom ash is increasingly used as a substitute aggregate material in road construction in China, and road salting is the major salt source in groundwater. Continuous rainfall releases soluble salts from the bottom ash subgrade into the surrounding soil and groundwater, resulting in potential hazards. Different methods were employed to...

The Effect of Wet Treatment on the Distribution and Leaching of Heavy Metals and Salts of Bottom Ash from Municipal Solid Waste Incineration

One of the main challenges of bottom ash reutilization is heavy metal and salts' leaching potential. The effect of wet treatment on chemical composition and leaching toxicity of bottom ash were investigated in this study to mitigate this leaching potential. Batch leaching and column leaching tests were first conducted to investigate the...
