Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are critical mediators of soil biogeochemical processes. While the production of ROS with biochar (BC) in the rhizosphere has not been explored. We demonstrate that BC and Fe-modified biochar (FeBC), prepared at 400°C and 600°C, influence ROS generation in paddy soil containing biodegradable (polybutylene succinate: PBS) and conventional (polystyrene) microplastics (MPs). FeBC, particularly FeBC prepared at 600°C, enhance ROS (O 2 •− , H 2 O 2 , • OH) production in paddy soil. The results of rhizosphere-focused pot experiment simulating field-like flooded conditions highlight that FeBC significantly increased O 2 •− , H 2 O 2 , • OH concentrations, especially with PBS (25.63, 27.69, 35.82 µM/kg, respectively) surpassing control by 3.1–3.6-folds. Iron plaque formation, water-soluble phenols, and microbial activity further influenced ROS dynamics and accelerated MP degradation via oxidative fragmentation (SEM surface fissures), dissolved organic carbon release (484 mg/kg), and SUVA 254 decline (4.6 folds). Microbial shifts toward Actinobacteria (37–43 %) and Firmicutes (25–28 %) correlated with ROS dynamics, linking biotic-abiotic degradation pathways. This work reveals the novel role of FeBC in rhizosphere ROS generation and the environmental behavior of MPs in BC-treated agricultural systems.

The co-catalytic effect of hydroquinone/quinone electron shuttle has received great attention in the area of Fenton-like reaction. However, the crucial roles of phenolic or hydroquinone moieties in the chemical structures of organic pollutants have always been overlooked. In this study, we discovered that the introduction of rifampicin (RIF), a representative of rifamycin antibiotics, could trigger complete degradation of atrazine (ATZ) in the Fe(III)/H 2 O 2 system. By exploring the influences of initial Fe(III), H 2 O 2 , RIF concentrations and pH values on ATZ degradation efficiency, key components affecting metal ion valence transitions in the system were identified. Quenching experiments, probe tests and EPR analysis verified that •OH served as the primary active species, while HO 2 •/O 2 •− was also generated. Through monitoring Fe(II) concentration variations and employing mass spectrometric analyses, the oxidation pathway of RIF was elucidated: When mixed with Fe(III), the naphthohydroquinone moiety of RIF immediately acted as a direct electron donor to reduce Fe(III) to Fe(II), while itself being oxidized to RIF-Q. Upon H 2 O 2 addition, it rapidly triggered the classical Fenton reaction with Fe(II) to generate •OH, enabling ATZ degradation. Simultaneously, RIF-Q underwent further oxidative breakdown, with some degradation products retaining the capacity to continuously donate electrons to Fe(III), thereby promoting its reduction. This study provides new insights for the co-catalytic effect of pollutant-derived electron shuttles on the transition of metal ion valences.

Metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived carbon nanocomposites have been widely applied in electrocatalytic fields due to their simple synthesis, excellent conductivity, and high catalytic activity. In this study, ZIF-67 and MIL-101(Fe) were synthesized via liquid-phase precipitation and solvent thermal methods, respectively. Then, the two kinds of MOFs were ground and calcined with melamine to prepare flower-like carbon nanocomposites. Under the optimal conditions, the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) onset potential (E onset = 1.019 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode, RHE) and half-wave potential (E 1/2 = 0.866 V) of this prepared composite are both higher than those of commercial Pt/C catalyst (E onset = 0.971 V, E 1/2 = 0.838 V). The prepared nanocomposite exhibits a lower oxygen evolution reaction (OER) overpotential (η = 338 mV at 10 mA cm −2 ) than RuO 2 (η = 372 mV), demonstrating superior catalytic performance. The prepared nanocomposite achieves simultaneous enhancement in both ORR and OER bifunctional catalytic performances. The power density of a zinc-air battery (ZAB) assembled with the optimal nanocomposite was 2.65 times higher than that of the Pt/C + RuO 2 system. This study establishes a fundamental framework for the rational design of high-performance ORR/OER bifunctional catalysts, while pioneering new avenues for ZAB technology commercialization.

Electromagnetic (EM) pollution has emerged as a pressing concern, driving the demand for high-performance microwave absorbing materials. In this work, attapulgite (ATP) was employed as a natural, porous scaffold for the in situ integration of amorphous TiO2, Fe3O4, and polyaniline (PANI), constructing a multifunctional composite with tailored dielectric and magnetic properties. The TiO2 and PANI coatings not only induced strong interfacial and conduction polarization but also formed a continuous 3D conductive network, enabling efficient energy dissipation. Benefiting from the magneto-electric synergy among PANI, TiO2, and Fe3O4, the composite exhibited multiple loss mechanisms and excellent impedance matching. As a result, a minimum reflection loss of -56.24 dB was achieved at 11.63 GHz (2.9 mm thickness), with an ultra-wide effective absorption bandwidth of 8.1 GHz. More importantly, by integrating 3D printing with metamaterial-inspired design, the absorption range was successfully extended into the low-frequency region (4–6 GHz), while simultaneously enhancing structural integrity and corrosion resistance. This study offers a scalable strategy for designing lightweight, corrosion-resistant microwave absorbers by combining hierarchical conductive frameworks with multifunctional components, opening new avenues for next-generation EM shielding and stealth technologies.

The mixed phosphate Na₄Fe₃(PO₄)₂(P₂O₇) (NFPP) via synergistic coordination of mixed [PO₄]/[P₂O₇] anion groups achieves a flat voltage plateau at 3.2 V (vs. Na + /Na) and a theoretical specific capacity of 129 mAh g −1 , but its practical application is still limited by its inherent low electronic conductivity. Through structural integration of polyanion-type cathode materials, this study innovatively designed and constructed hierarchical Na₄Fe₃(PO₄)₂(P₂O₇)@C mesoporous microspheres (NFPP@CMMS). The NFPP nanocrystals uniformly embedded in a three-dimensional interconnected meso porous carbon matrix (pore size distribution: 2–5 nm). Such hierarchical meso/micro-nano architectures provided expansive ion-exchange interfaces, accelerating Na + de/intercalation kinetics while enhancing electronic conductivity and mitigating structural collapse during cycling. Consequently, the NFPP@CMMS delivers exceptional reversible discharge capacity (121 mAh g −1 at 0.1C), outstanding rate capability (72 mAh g −1 at 50C), and superior cycling stability (90.70 % capacity retention after 3500 cycles at 5C). This triple-synergy strategy—combining nano-confinement effects, interconnected mesoporous channels, and carbon-encapsulated network—provides a novel pathway for developing practical sodium-ion battery cathodes.

The development of highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts is crucial for the practical application of water splitting in renewable energy production. The Ni-Fe Phosphate electrocatalyst was synthesized through a simple and scalable electrodeposition method. This study presents a comprehensive investigation into the surface reconstruction engineering of an amorphous Ni-Fe phosphate electrocatalyst for enhancing its performance in alkaline water splitting. The reconstructed electrocatalyst exhibits significantly improved activity in alkaline water splitting. As expected, a low cell voltage of 1.86V was used to drive water splitting at 300 mA cm −2 , while the electrodes maintained high stability during 180 h continuous full water splitting at 70 mA cm −2 . This work provides insights into the mechanisms underlying the enhanced performance of the reconstructed Ni-Fe Phosphate based electrocatalyst and offers a promising approach for the design of advanced electrocatalysts for water splitting.

In the realm of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS), the escalating cost of cobalt has spurred interest in Co-Fe bimetallic catalysts as substitutes for monometallic Co catalysts. Unfortunately, it is difficult to clarify specific functions and interactions of the two phases, as investigating catalysts in a unified dimension of both metal and support is still a challenge. Herein, we realize precise control over synthesizing nitrogen-doped carbon materials supported bimetallic catalysts containing CoFe alloy and Co + Fe 2 C dual active phases. The catalysts are comprehensively characterized to address the above problem by excluding the influence of metal sizes and support properties. Our findings reveal that compared to metallic Co alone and Co + Fe 2 C dual active phases, the Co-Fe interaction in CoFe alloy with electron transfer from Fe to Co optimizes reactant adsorption behaviors through achieving a larger number of strongly adsorbed CO per active site to increase the density of C* adsorbates and a higher surface CO/H 2 ratio to inhibit the hydrogenation of CH x * intermediates for chain termination, as well as an appropriate ability for CO adsorption/ dissociation. These advantages collectively enhance both CO activation and C-C coupling, and consequently, the CoFe/NC (CoFe alloy) catalyst exhibits the superior catalytic performance in the cobalt space–time yield in C 5+ products (3011.2 g C5+ kg Co −1 h −1 ), which surpasses the Co/NC (monometallic Co) and Co + Fe/NC (Co + Fe 2 C dual active phases) by 2.2 times and 2.4 times, respectively. This study serves as a promising route for the development of efficient and low-cost bimetallic catalysts through the strategic arrangement of multiple active phases for various reactions.

Na-ion batteries (NIBs) are promising for grid-scale energy storage applications. However, the lack of Co, Ni-free cathode materials has made them less cost-effective. In this work, Mg 2+ is successfully utilized to activate the oxygen redox reaction in earth-abundant Fe/Mn-based layered cathodes to achieve reversible hybrid anionic and cationic redox capacities. A high first charge capacity of ≈210 mAh g −1 with balanced charge–discharge efficiency is achieved without O-loss, showing a promising energy cost of $2.02 kWh −1 . Full cell against hard carbon anode without pre-sodiation shows energy density exceeding ≈280 Wh kg −1 with a decent capacity retention of 85.6% after 100 cycles. A comprehensive analysis of the charge compensation mechanisms and structural evolution is conducted. Voltage and capacity loss resulting from partially reversible Fe 3+ migration to the Na layer is confirmed, shedding light on further improvements for low-cost NIB cathodes in application scenarios.

To address the inherent contradiction between adsorption/desorption energy barriers of intermediates in single-metal urea oxidation reaction (UOR) catalysts, this study developed a cyanide-bridged bimetallic catalyst , Ni 2 Fe(CN) 6 , via liquid-phase synthesis and plasma modification. Plasma modification enhances the structural stability of the three-dimensional framework and optimizes its electronic properties through selective metal ion substitution and framework reconstruction. In situ electrochemical Raman spectroscopy confirms that the cyanide bridge serves as an electron transport bridge, effectively linking Ni and Fe active centers and providing a stable electron transfer pathway for the Ni³ ⁺/Ni²⁺ redox cycle, leading to a 2.05-fold increase in cycling efficiency compared to untreated catalysts. Benefiting from the synergistic effect of the bimetallic centers, Ni 2 Fe(CN) 6 exhibits superior UOR electrocatalytic performance, achieving an overpotential of only 0.425 V（vs. Hg/HgO） at 10 mA cm −2 . Furthermore, theoretical calculations indicate that the protonation state of amino groups significantly influences the rate-determining step by modulating the reaction pathway. The presence of functionally distinct and diversified active sites enables a multi-pathway synergistic catalytic mechanism, effectively promoting key reaction steps, including amino proton transfer , C-N bond cleavage, and N-N coupling.

Recycling paper packaging waste into Fe-biochar catalysts is a promising strategy for resource utilization. In this study, a dissolution-regeneration method using a DMAc/LiCl system was employed to synthesis Fe-biochar pellet catalyst (Fe-WPBC) with corrugated cardboard as a cheap carbon precursor. The Fe-WPBC possessed a spherical cage-like hollow structure with millimeter-size dimensions, making it suitable for practical application. An impressive rate constant of 0.2452 min -1 for tetracycline degradation via peroxymonosulfate activation was achieved, and Fe-WPBC showed high stability, maintaining close to 100% tetracycline removal efficiency even after five cycles. Mechanistic insights were obtained through radical quenching, electron paramagnetic resonance, and electrochemical analysis etc. Both electron transfer path and SO 4 · - and O 2 · - dominated radical path concurrently existed. Possible degradation pathways were further proposed in combination with LC-MS and DFT calculations. Besides, toxicity simulations using T.E.X.T and ECOSAR programs showed that the degradation intermediates were less toxic than tetracycline. Finally, the practical application potential of Fe-WPBC was evaluated through a continuous flow reactor, which achieved a 99% tetracycline degradation efficiency and maintained over 400 min. This study provides new insights into both the recycling of paper packaging waste and the development of pellet catalysts for pollution degradation.

Selective hydrogenation of fatty acids is an important method for the preparation of long-chain alkanes and fatty alcohols. Herein, a series of bimetallic catalysts with different Fe/Co ratios were prepared by using phosphoric acid-activated biochar as a support. The anchoring effect of P-containing functional groups in the support greatly improves the sintering resistance of the metals. The conversion pathway of stearic acid (SA) can be regulated by controlling Fe doping and the reduction temperature. The reduction of Fe1Co3/PAC at 400 °C can selectively regulate the hydrodeoxygenation pathway of SA. At 250 °C and 4 MPa, SA was almost completely converted to long-chain alkanes. Mechanism study shows that Fe doping increases the hydrogenation site CoO and dehydration site Fe–O–P in catalysts. However, by further increasing the reduction temperature, the metal phosphides formed in the catalyst can significantly enhance the dehydrogenation of octadecanol and decarbonylation of octadecaldehyde.

This study used metal oxide-modified metal-organic frameworks to examine H 2 S catalytic oxidation selectivity. The findings revealed that the oxidation mechanisms and products differed between Fe 2 O 3 /UiO-66 and Al 2 O 3 /UiO-66. The dithionates were intermediate products of H 2 S oxidation on Al 2 O 3 /UiO-66, whereas the bisulfates were intermediate products on Fe 2 O 3 /UiO-66. Fe 2 O 3 /UiO-66 showed stronger surface oxidation activity than Al 2 O 3 /UiO-66. The formation of sulfate/SO 2 was primarily attributable to surface oxygen, whereas elemental sulfur was primarily related to lattice oxygen. The product generation processes of H 2 S on Fe 2 O 3 /UiO-66 and Al 2 O 3 /UiO-66 surfaces were as follows: H 2 S → HSO 4 2− → SO 2 → S for Fe 2 O 3 /UiO-66, while H 2 S → S 2 O 4 2− → SO 2 for Al 2 O 3 /UiO-66. H 2 O and surface oxygen have the potential to alter H 2 S adsorption on the catalyst surface. For Fe 2 O 3 , the conversion of H 2 S to SO 2 involves both an oxidation process and a reduction process. For Al 2 O 3 , the conversion of H 2 S to SO 2 includes two oxidation processes. Due to the oxidation step of S 2 O 4 2− limiting the generation of SO 2 , the reduction process of SO 2 was also hindered, which in turn restricted the production of S over Al 2 O 3 . Fe 2 O 3 can achieve the oxidation and removal of H 2 S at lower reaction temperatures, while also creating elemental S.
