Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
An anti-fouling aerogel with superior separation performance for separation of oil/water emulsion is of great significance to industrial development due to continuously increasing oily industrial wastewater. Herein, a superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic porous biobased aerogel with a three-dimensional network structure was prepared by the agricultural waste corn stalk (CS) incorporated with konjac glucomannan (KGM) through simple sol-gel and freeze-drying methods. The oil/water separation mechanisms and the effect of aerogel structural changes on the separation performance of CS/KGM aerogel for oil-in-water emulsions are discussed in detail. Using toluene as an oil phase, CSK exhibited outstanding separation performance with an excellent separation efficiency above 96.26% and a high permeate flux above 2,381 L m h for oil-in-water emulsions. As expected, the separation efficiency and permeation flux can be wholly recovered after washing, indicating the aerogel possesses good sustainability. Moreover, CS/KGM aerogel has the advantages of low cost, simple preparation, eco-friendly and anti-fouling, revealing a promising candidate for the treatment of oily wastewater pollution.
