Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the continuous growth of total energy consumption, environmental pollution caused by energy consumption has become increasingly prominent. Resource and environmental problems have become an important problem restricting social development. In recent years, many environmentally friendly resource detection methods and new pollutant detection and treatment methods have emerged, such as through the study of mineral mechanisms with excellent adsorption capacity for pollutants, the application of low pollution optical methods to detect resources and pollutants, and low carbon waste treatment and resource recovery, for example. All of these advancements have great research significance and reference value for environmental protection and resource exploration.

This Special Issue aims to summarize the latest research achievements in the field of environmental protection and resource detection and to provide new ideas for the research of resource detection and environmental protection.

For CsPbBr3 perovskite materials, it is especially important to reduce interface defects, suppress non-radiative recombination, and improve morphology to achieve highly efficient and stable CsPbBr3 perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, we reported a facile but highly efficient approach in additive engineering for improving the efficiency and stability of CsPbBr3 PSCs. It was found that phenethylammonium iodide can passivate interface defects, suppress non-radiative recombination, and increase the grain sizes of CsPbBr3 films by optimizing crystal quality and interface contact. As a result, a carbon-based CsPbBr3 PSC with power conversion efficiency > 8.51%, storage stability > 340 days, and excellent harsh stability under high temperature and humidity, has been achieved.

In the process of promoting economic development, carbon peaks and carbon neutrality have gradually received more attention. The question of how to steadily and rapidly improve the carbon neutrality capacity of each province and excavate the key factors hindering the carbon neutrality capacity has become particularly important. In this study, the DPSIR (driving, pressure, state, influence, response) framework was used to construct an index system of the provincial carbon neutrality capacity of the middle and lower Yellow River Basin, which included 37 indices. Based on the entropy weight matter-element model, the time evolution, regional differences, and restriction indicators of the carbon neutrality capacity of four provinces in the middle and lower Yellow River Basin from 2008 to 2021 were analyzed. The results showed that the carbon neutrality capacity of the four provinces in the middle and lower Yellow River Basin has significantly improved over time and has gradually reached a grade of “good”. Differences in carbon neutrality capacity among the provinces still exist but are gradually shrinking. the per capita car ownership, urban population density, and other factors have hindered the improvement of the carbon neutrality capacity in each province, but with the reduction in restriction indicators and increase in positive indicators such as urbanization rate, forest grass coverage, and others, the overall development direction tended to be promising.
