Abstract: Various examples related to electrokinetic dewatering (EKD) of suspensions such as, e.g., phosphatic clay suspensions are provided. In one example, a system for continuous EKD includes cake dewatering unit having a lower conveying belt extending across a dewatering chamber; an upper conveying belt extending across at least a portion of the dewatering chamber; and a sludge inlet configured to supply a sludge suspension on the first end of the lower conveying belt. The conveying belts can extend across the dewatering chamber at an angle. Rotation of the conveying belts draws the sludge suspension through an electric field where the sludge suspension is dewatered. The electric field can be established between an upper anode and a lower cathode. The upper and lower conveying belts can include the anode and cathode. A suspension thickening unit can provide a thickened sludge suspension the cake dewatering unit for enhanced dewatering.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide for systems and methods of three dimensional printing including a precursor build material comprising a hydrogel precursor and a support material, wherein the precursor build material has a gel-like state when a stress applied to the precursor build material is less than a yield stress, wherein the precursor build material has a free-flow state when the stress applied to the precursor build material is above the yield stress, wherein when the stress applied to the precursor build material changes from above the yield stress to below the yield stress, the precursor build material returns to the gel-like state.

Abstract: A photovoltaic system is formed as a window that is constructed of at least one polymer layer that is filled or decorated with metal nanoparticles and a window frame that includes one or more photovoltaic cells. The metal nanoparticles have a shape and size such that they display surface plasmon resonance frequencies in the near-infrared and/or the near-ultraviolet. The near-infrared and/or the near-ultraviolet radiations are scattered such that they are transmitted parallel to the face of the window to the photovoltaic cells, where an electrical current is generated.

Abstract: The present disclosure provide for methods of reforming a hydrocarbon such as methane. In an aspect, when the method is driven via renewable energy (e.g., use of solar energy, wind energy, or other renewable energy) and coupled with zero-energy input product gas separation, this enables the capture of pure CO2 (i.e., carbon sequestration) and carbon-neutral utilization of methane can be achieved. As a result, the present disclosure can provide for a method to reform methane with zero-energy input product gas separation.
