This paper looks at using spent coffee grounds as a partial substitute for titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a catalyst for chemical reactions. Using UV-Vis spectrophotometry, they found that adding the coffee grounds to TiO2 in a 3:1 ratio, there is still meaningful catalytic activity. This offers a cheaper solution than just using pure TiO2.

Here the authors present an autonomous drone air filtration system that uses a novel algorithm, the gradient ascent ML particle filter (GA/MLPF), to efficiently locate and mitigate outdoor air pollution. They demonstrate that their GA/MLPF algorithm is significantly more efficient than the conventional gradient ascent algorithm, reducing both the time and number of waypoints needed to find the source of pollution.
