Invited for this month's cover are collaborators from the University of Porto in Portugal and KU Leuven in Belgium. The image shows that nanodiamond-TiO composites can effectively degrade organic water pollutants by photocatalysis under ambient conditions. This process will reduce human impact on freshwater systems, thereby contributing to meet worldwide targets on water footprint reduction. Read the full text of the article at 10.1002/cplu.201300094.
