Recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from industrial wastewater has drawn great attention due to their potential environmental toxicity, as well as their high demand for modern technologies. In 2016, a research group of Prof. Dichtel William from Cornell University reported the first permanently microporous high surface area β-CD polymer, named P-CDP (Nature, 2016). P-CDP showed the rapid removal of organic micropollutants, Pb ions, and sulfides from the water with high adsorption cap...

Tire microplastics are considered one of important microplastics, which is the second largest contributor of primary microplastics to marine environment on global scale. Tire microplastics mainly derive from tires used on roads even though tires are made to be highly wear-resistant, which are very easy to enter the urban water environments with the way of atmospheric settlement, rainwater, surface water flow, etc. Subsequently, they may accumulate in the landscape rivers and the construc...
