How to achieve low energy consumption and high degradation efficiency (DRE) under mild conditions is an important issue in the field of sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ) treatment. In this work, a new route of SF 6 degradation promoted by Ni-doped ceria (NiO-CeO 2 ) in a packed bed dielectric barrier discharge (PB-DBD) was proposed. The effects of Ni/Ce molar ratio, input power, SF 6 concentration and flow rate on the DRE of SF 6 were investigated. Compared with DBD or CeO 2 -DBD alone, the combination of DBD and NiO-CeO 2 can significantly promote the SF 6 degradation at lower input power. The Experimental results show that when the dosage of catalyst 1.5NiO-CeO 2 (Ni/Ce mole ratio is 1.5%) is 5 g, DBD input power is 50 W and SF 6 (1.5% SF 6 /98.5% Ar) flow rate is 100 ml·min −1 , the highest DRE can reach 97.7% and the energy yield can reach 11.5 gSF 6 ·(kWh) −1 . Adjusting the catalyst dosage according to the flux of SF 6 ( e.g., using 10 g catalyst to degrade SF 6 with a concentration of 1.5% and a flow rate of 80 ml·min -1 ), the DRE of nearly 99% can be achieved for a long time, which is crucial for industrial application. The mechanism deduction shows that the rich surface and mesopores of the catalyst are beneficial to the adsorption of SF 6 and intermediates, while the doping of Ni can significantly increase the content of oxygen vacancies to improve the degradation. Meanwhile, when NiO-CeO 2 is activated by DBD, the free O· can further promote the degradation. It is this coupling effect that leads to the high efficiency and low energy consumption of SF 6 degradation under mild conditions. It can be expected that this coupling technology route will have a good application prospect in the field of SF 6 treatment.

A novel NiO/CeO 2 −mSiO 2 nanocages with superior peroxidase−like activities due to the synergetic effect between NiO and CeO 2 were fabricated by a simple etching−precipitation method with core−shell structured Cu 2 O@mSiO 2 as a sacrificial template. Based on the peroxidase−like activity of the NiO/CeO 2 −mSiO 2 nanocages, an enzyme cascade−triggered colorimetric sensing platform was exploited for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) detection, owing to the fact that ascorbic acid (AA) that is the ALP enzymatic hydrolysis product of ascorbic acid 2−phosphate (AAP) can efficiently reduce the oxidation product of TMB (oxTMB) generated under the catalysis of the NiO/CeO 2 −mSiO 2 . For the sensing of ALP, a good linear response was observed in the range of 0.0005–1.25 mU mL −1 with the limit of detection (LOD) as low as 0.00048 mU mL −1 . Furthermore, the proposed enzyme cascade−triggered colorimetric sensing platform could be further explored for sensing of tyrosinase, according to the fact that dopamine (DA) the catalytic product of tyramine (Tyr) by tyrosinase could initiate the redox reaction with the oxTMB acquired under the catalysis of the NiO/CeO 2 −mSiO 2 . A wide linear response was found for tyrosinase detection from 0.02 mU mL −1 to 3.4 U mL −1 with a LOD as low as 0.002 U mL −1 . This work not only offers a facile and effective approach to fabricate nanozymes with excellent catalytic activity, but also provides a promising enzyme cascade−triggered colorimetric method for the ultra−sensitive detection of biological enzymes.

The synthesis of furan-based platform chemicals from abundant and renewable biomass-based hexoses plays an important role in the development and utilization of biomass energy. The electrochemical 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation reaction (HMFOR) represents a promising route for synthesizing the 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) product which is a high value-added biomass-based monomer. Interface engineering is an effective strategy to adjust the electronic structure, optimize the adsorption of intermediates, and expose more active sites, thus attracting extensive attention for designing efficient HMFOR electrocatalysts. Herein, a NiO/CeO2@NF heterostructure with an abundant interface is designed for boosting the HMFOR performance under alkaline conditions. At 1.475 V vs. RHE, the conversion of HMF is nearly 100%, the selectivity of FDCA is 99.0%, and the faradaic efficiency is as high as 98.96%. The NiO/CeO2@NF electrocatalyst also exhibits robust stability for HMFOR for 10 cycles. When coupled with the cathode hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline medium, the yields of FDCA and hydrogen production are 197.92 and 600 μmol cm−2 h−1, respectively. The NiO/CeO2@NF catalyst is also suitable for the electrocatalytic oxidation of other biomass-derived platform compounds. The abundant interface between NiO and CeO2, which can regulate the electronic properties of Ce and Ni atoms, improve the oxidation state of Ni species, regulate intermediate adsorption, and promote electron/charge transfer, makes the most contribution to high HMFOR performance. This work will provide a simple route for the design of heterostructured materials and reveal the application prospect of interface engineering for promoting the upgrading of biomass derivatives.

To understand the underlying mechanism of the interfacial charge transfer and local chemical state variation in the nonprecious-based hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts, a model system of the NiO/CeO 2 heterostructure was chosen for investigation using a combination of the advanced electron microscopic characterization and first-principles calculations. The results directly proved that interfacial charge transfer occurs from Ni to Ce, leading to reduction in the valence state of Ce and increased formation of V O . This would optimize ΔG H* and facilitate the hydrogen evolution process, resulting in outstanding HER performance in 1 M KOH with a low overpotential of 99 mV at the current density of 10 mA•cm −2 and a modest Tafel slope of 78.4 mV•dec −1 for the NiO/CeO 2 heterostructure sample. Therefore, the improved HER performance could be attributed to the synergistic coupling interactions and electron redistribution at the interface of NiO and CeO 2 . These results concretely demonstrate the direct determination of the interfacial structure of the heterostructure and provide atomistic insights to unravel the underlying mechanism of interfacial charge transfer induced HER performance improvement.

The oxygen species over oxygen carriers determine the reaction performance in chemical looping partial oxidation of methane (CLPOM). This paper describes the dynamic migration and reaction of oxygen species over ceria-supported NiO oxygen carrier for CLPOM. At initial reaction stage, Ni-O species could be consumed rapidly and cause the full oxidation of methane to CO 2 . Afterwards, the active Ni-O-Ce species dominates the methane partial oxidation to promote the syngas yield. It is found that CO formation rate is linearly related with the content of oxygen species over Ni-O-Ce. Furthermore, the lattice oxygen from CeO 2 would migrate through the bulk to complement the consumed Ni-O-Ce oxygen species. Eventually, 5NiO/(40CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 ) exhibit nearly three times as high as methane reaction rate of CeO 2 /Al 2 O 3 and two times as high as CO formation rate of 5NiO/Al 2 O 3 . This work provides the comprehensive understanding of transport and reaction mechanism of oxygen species for chemical looping processes.

NiO and CeO 2 composite metal oxides (NiO–CeO 2 ) were synthesized by sol-gel method to investigate a degradation system by persulfate (PS) activation with the assistance of visible light (Vis). The phase composition of NiO–CeO 2 was detected by X-ray diffraction (XRD), the morphology of NiO–CeO 2 was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), and the result of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) proved the element composition and valence state of the NiO–CeO 2 . In the Vis/PS/NiO–CeO 2 system, the degradation rate of Orange II using a concentration of 50 mg/L was as high as 90% in 15 min but it increased to as high as 99% in 60 min. Mechanism studies have shown that the combination of NiO and CeO 2 generated more oxygen vacancies , and activated persulfate to generate active oxygen species. Moreover, the effects of visible light , persulfate concentration and pH were evaluated, and the results showed that the participation of visible light and persulfate could significantly increase the degradation efficiency of Orange II, but pH had little effect on the degradation. Quenching experiments and detection by ESR showed that O 2 ‾, •SO 4 ‾, •OH, and 1 O 2 all contribute to the removal of Orange II. In addition, the recovery and reuse properties of NiO–CeO 2 may lead to sustainable treatment of wastewater.

Interface engineering can be used to tune the properties of heterostructure materials at an atomic level, yielding exceptional final physical properties. In this work, we synthesized a heterostructure of a p-type semiconductor (NiO) and an n-type semiconductor (CeO2) for solid oxide fuel cell electrolytes. The CeO2-NiO heterostructure exhibited high ionic conductivity of 0.2 S cm−1at 530 °C, which was further improved to 0.29 S cm−1by the introduction of Na+ions. When it was applied in the fuel cell, an excellent power density of 571 mW cm−1was obtained, indicating that the CeO2-NiO heterostructure can provide favorable electrolyte functionality. The prepared CeO2-NiO heterostructures possessed both proton and oxygen ionic conductivities, with oxygen ionic conductivity dominating the fuel cell reaction. Further investigations in terms of electrical conductivity and electrode polarization, a proton and oxygen ionic co-conducting mechanism, and a mechanism for blocking electron transport showed that the reconstruction of the energy band at the interfaces was responsible for the enhanced ionic conductivity and cell power output. This work presents a new methodology and scientific understanding of semiconductor-based heterostructures for advanced ceramic fuel cells.
