The rapid consumption of fossil resources and the grim environmental situation encourage the application of renewable and clean energy resources. Conversion of biomass, which is a kind of renewable, CO 2 neutral as well as abundant reserves carbon containing resource, is significantly important. The production of fuels from biomass by means of gasification and Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is one of the most promising routes for industrial applications. The wax-free liquid fuels synthesis directly from H 2 -deficient syngas similar to bio-gas is highly advantageous for reducing investment and operating cost. Thus, the Mn-promoted meso-ZSM-5 supported cobalt catalyst was applied for the production of wax-free liquid fuels by catalytic H 2 -deficient syngas conversion in this study. The performance of the reaction was influenced obviously by Mn content. The cobalt dispersion increased with the addition of Mn, whereas the reduction degree decreased after Mn doping. Then, the balance between the dispersion and reduction degree led to the change in CO uptake followed a volcanic curve. The catalyst with moderate amount of Mn (1 wt%) had the suitable cobalt particle size and the maximum CO uptake. Thus, the highest CO conversion was obtained over Co-1Mn/meso-ZSM-5 catalyst thanks to its maximum exposed active sites. The appropriate amount of Mn addition also resulted in the decreasing of CH 4 selectivity. The highest space time yield of liquid fuels was acquired over the Co-1Mn/meso-ZSM-5 catalyst from H 2 -deficient syngas conversion under the moderate conditions.
In this work, we proposed a straightforward and effective strategy for preparing pink all-inorganic halide perovskite nanocrystal (NC) phosphors for light-emitting diode (LED) application. The pink perovskite NCs with varying Mn contents could be easily and steadily obtained via postsynthetic ion exchange at room temperature. The dependence of the size and optical properties of pink NCs on dopant content was systematically investigated. The reversible anion exchange processes of pink perovskite NCs were conducted with halide salts containing or excluding Pb. The contrasting results suggested that the irreversibility of Mn-emission was mainly affected by the fully reversible cation exchange between Pb 2+ and Mn 2+ . The pink NCs with better stability of dopant emission and high monodispersity were successfully developed by compounding with silica . A pink LED was further made by using the pink NCs/silica composites as pink phosphors on a 395 nm InGaN LED chip. This work provides a feasible strategy for the fabrication of pink LEDs, which may have great application prospects in the field of special lighting, like neon lights and plant growth lights.
