3D-SLISE is a quasi-solid electrolyte developed at Institute of Science Tokyo, which enables safe, fast-charging/discharging of 2.35 V lithium-ion batteries to be fabricated under ambient conditions. With energy-efficient manufacturing using raw materials free from flammable organic solvents, the technique eliminates the need for dry rooms or high-temperature processing. Moreover, it also allows direct recovery of active materials through water dispersal—ensuring a sustainable, recyclable approach to battery production.

Recently, Associate Professor Wushuang Zhang et al. from Southwest University, China Agricultural University, and the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences systematically reviewed the practices and achievements of green technology innovations in major food crops from 2000 to 2022. They aimed to answer the question: how can China’s agriculture achieve a balance between “high yield” and “high efficiency” amid increasing resource constraints? The related paper has been published in Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering (DOI: 10.15302/J-FASE-2025633).

Recently, Professor Lin Ma et al. from Nanjing University, China Agricultural University, and Hebei Agricultural University proposed a new agricultural system research method that combines “top-down” and “bottom-up” approaches, providing a viable pathway to address this dilemma. The related paper has been published in Frontiers of Agricultural Science and Engineering (DOI: 10.15302/J-FASE-2025628).
