Two aminoglycoside antibiotics (AGs), gentamicin (GEN) and tobramycin (TOB), have good antibacterial activity against most pseudomonas aeruginosa and staphylococcus. The molecular structure of these drugs lack chromogenic groups, which brings challenges to their detection. In this project, the detecting methods for GEN and TOB utilizing surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) based on γ -Al 2 O 3 -modified silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) coated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) were established. The enhancement factors (EFs) of GEN and TOB were 2.44 × 10 5 and 2.67 × 10 6 , respectively. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and spectrophotometric techniques were used to characterize the substrate and the combination of the substance with drugs. The pH, the addition amounts for the substrate and coagulant, as well as the mixing time were optimized. On the basis of single factor experiments, a more scientific response surface model was established. The concentrations of GEN and TOB showed good linear relationships with their Raman signals in the ranges of 6.67 × 10 −8 – 2.00 × 10 −6 and 6.67 × 10 −9 – 3.00 × 10 −7 mol L −1 respectively. The limits of detection (LODs) were 11.88 and 1.26 nmol L −1 for GEN and TOB, respectively. The methods were used successfully for the samples determination of the two AGs in commercial drugs and meat products.

The calcium modified Zn-Ce/Al 2 O 3 heterogeneous base catalysts are synthesized by the hydrothermal method, impregnation method and co-precipitation method, respectively. Further, they are applied to catalyze transesterification of palm oil with methanol for the biodiesel production. The hydrothermal method with the Ca: Zn: Ce: Al molar ratio of 5: 4: 1: 1 is preferred to synthesize the catalyst due to the best catalytic performance. The catalyst shows strong reusability, where the biodiesel yield of 87.37% is obtained for the fifth reused cycle and the weakened catalytic capability is mainly ascribed to the leaching out of the active sites. The response surface methodology with the central composite design (RSM-CCD) is employed to optimize the transesterification parameters and predict the biodiesel yield. The predicted maximum biodiesel yield of 99.44% is achieved at the reaction temperature of 66.12 °C, methanol to oil molar ratio of 18.53 and catalyst amount of 8.19 wt. % with 3 h, which is consistent with the experimental result of 99.41%. Also, the physical properties of the produced biodiesel meet the ASTM D 6751 standard. This study reveals the Ca-Ce-Zn/Al 2 O 3 catalyst gains a good application prospect in the biodiesel production and the response surface methodology is effective in optimizing the transesterification parameters and predicting the optimal values.

Catalytic hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of biomass-derived oxy-compounds to advanced hydrocarbon fuels usually requires bifunctional catalysts containing metals and acidic sites. The appropriate tuning of metal and/or acidic active sites at interfaces of bifunctional catalysts can significantly improve catalyst activity and product selectivity. Here, 4-trifuoromethyl salicylic acid (TFMSA), as a hydrothermal stable organic acid, was employed to tailor the bifunctional interface of Ru/γ-Al 2 O 3 to enhance the catalytic performance on converting lignin-derived phenols to jet fuel range cycloalkanes. More than 80% phenol was converted into cyclohexane at 230 °C for 1 h over Ru/γ-Al 2 O 3 modified by TFMSA, which was about three times higher than that over unmodified Ru/γ-Al 2 O 3 . X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), H 2 chemisorption, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) elemental mapping results indicated that Ru nanoparticles and TFMSA were well distributed on γ-Al 2 O 3 , and a nanoscale intimacy between Ru and TFMSA was reached. Meanwhile, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy after pyridine adsorption (Py-FT-IR) analysis proved that Brønsted acidic sites on the catalytic interfaces of TFMSA modified Ru/γ-Al 2 O 3 had been improved. Moreover, the kinetic and density functional theory (DFT) results suggested that the synergistic effects of adjacent Ru nanoparticles and acidic sites were crutial for promoting the rate-limiting conversion step of phenol HDO to cyclohexane.

Calcium looping (CaL) is extensively used in post-combustion capture of CO 2 and sorption-enhanced steam methane reforming because of its advantages of low cost and theoretically high CO 2 -capture capacity. Despite this, unstable reactivity of sorbent (CaO) and significant heat requirement for CaCO 3 calcination were always encountered in CaL. To address the aforementioned issues, a core-shell structured CaO-CuO/MgO@Al 2 O 3 sorbent (CCMA for short) was synthesized via the self-assembly template synthesis (SATS) method, and systematically investigated in terms of carbonation, calcination-reduction and oxidation cycles. In comparison to wet-mixing CaO-CuO material (CC), MgO-supported CaO-CuO (CCM) and Al 2 O 3 -supported CaO-CuO (CCA), the CCMA performed the highest CO 2 uptake capacity, which was quite stable at around 0.08 [g CO 2 ∙(g material) −1 ] in the 30 cyclic tests. In calcination-reduction stage, CaO in CCMA can be fully recovered by the decomposition of CaCO 3 , meanwhile the corresponding heat requirement can be compensated by the exothermic reaction between CuO and CH 4 , i.e., thermal neutrality can be achieved by using CCMA. The Cu in reduced CCMA can be subsequently oxidized back to CuO in the oxidation stage with a conversion of 97–98%, which is much higher than CC, CCM and CCA. After cycles, no serious sintering was observed for the CCMA and the measured crushing strength (1.4 N) was sufficient for fluidization, which, in combination with its high reactivity, makes this material very promising for CaL-CLC process.

A series of novel γ -Al 2 O 3 supported Pt In bimetallic catalysts were prepared by perovskite (PTO) lattice interstitial confined reduction and compared with industrial catalyst PtIn/ γ -Al 2 O 3 in the propane dehydrogenation to propene . The physics-chemistry properties of all catalysts and precursors were characterized by BET, NH 3 -TPD, TPR, XRD , TEM , STEM-EDS, XPS , TG and O 2 -TPO techniques. The results show that the metal ions of Pt 4+ and In 3+ confined in PTO lattice interstitial sites were more easily reduced than those confined in PTO lattice. The lattice interstitial confinement was beneficial for the formation of small and highly dispersed Pt In bimetallic species on the surface of γ -Al 2 O 3 supported PTO Nano islands. It is just the confinement of PTO lattice interstitial sites for appropriate In 3+ /In 0 ratio and weak Pt In interaction and the sharing Al O bond for anchoring PTO nanoparticles and weakening the surface acid sites result in the high activity and superior stability of PtIn/LaAlO 3 / γ -Al 2 O 3 in propane dehydrogenation. The initial propane conversion of PtIn/LaAlO 3 / γ -Al 2 O 3 was 47%, and can be maintained at 25% after 16 h, while its propene selectivity only decreased from 96% to 90%.

Hydroxyl coordinated ruthenium dispersed on the surface of γ-Al2O3 can be applied to the selective oxidation of amines with light irradiation and an atmospheric pressure of O2 at room temperature. Sunlight is also an effective light source for the selective aerobic oxidation of primary amines to corresponding nitriles. The high photocatalytic activity and selectivity over Ru/γ-Al2O3 originate from the adsorption of amines and imine intermediates on the abundant surface OH groups of the photocatalyst and further formation of Ru–amide species by ligand exchange of adsorbed amines and imine intermediates with adjacent exposed active Ru sites. Light is introduced to the system successfully via the formation of Ru–amide species, which are used as the light absorption sites of the photocatalytic selective oxidation of amines. Primary amines are directly converted to corresponding nitriles via a two-step oxidative dehydrogenation process.

The highly efficient selective hydrogenation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-bis(hydroxymethyl)furan (BHMF) was achieved in a fixed-bed reactor by using inexpensive potassium-doped Cu/Al2O3 catalysts, which were prepared via a successive incipient wetness impregnation method. The characterization results revealed that the introduction of potassium could adjust the size of the copper particles and modify the acid–base property of the catalyst, leading to a significant change in its performance for the selective hydrogenation of HMF to BHMF. The highest yield of BHMF (98.9%) was obtained over the 1.5K–Cu/Al2O3 catalyst under the reaction conditions of 120 °C, 2.0 MPa of H2, and a weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 1.0 h−1. The excellent performance could be explained by the fact that the addition of an appropriate amount of potassium facilitated the dispersion of copper and reduced the acidity of the catalyst, which improved the catalytic activity and suppressed unwanted side reactions, respectively.

PtM (M = Ni, Fe, Co) alloy nanoparticles were synthesized by a liquid phase reduction method employing butyllithium as a reducing agent. The alumina-supported PtM materials were then used as precursors to obtain the Pt-MxOy/Al2O3 catalysts through calcination. The influence of synthesis conditions of PtM alloy nanoparticles and the catalytic performance of the Pt-MxOy/Al2O3 catalysts for p-chloronitrobenzene hydrogenation reaction were investigated. The relevant characterizations such as XRD, XPS, and TEM were conducted for PtM alloy nanoparticles and Pt-MxOy/Al2O3 catalysts, and the result showed that the PtM nanoparticles are uniform alloy. Moreover, compared to PtM alloy nanoparticles, the Pt particle size of Pt-MxOy/Al2O3 using PtM alloy nanoparticle precursors did not increase by calcination, indicating good thermal stability. The catalytic activities of Pt-MxOy/Al2O3 for p-chloronitrobenzene hydrogenation reaction were significantly higher than that of control Pt/Al2O3 catalysts due to its strong Pt-MxOy interaction.

Four types of biomass-derived organics (toluene/1-methylnaphthalene/phenol/ethanol) were catalytically decomposed and steam reformed over Ni/α-Al 2 O 3 for co-production of hydrogen and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). In the decomposition reaction, the oxygen functional group in phenol and ethanol promoted the co-production of hydrogen and CNTs, while a small amount of toluene and 1-methylnaphthalene were cracked to hydrogen and amorphous carbon. In the reforming reaction, the yields of hydrogen and CNTs sharply increased. More than 2000 mmol/(g-cata∗h) of H 2 and 260 mg/(g-cata∗h) of CNTs were produced after the reforming of toluene and ethanol. However, 1-methylnaphthalene was difficult to be reformed and small amount of CNTs were formed. The organics with low molecular weight and low degree of unsaturation conduced to the formation of hydrogen and CNTs. The growth of CNTs on Ni/α-Al 2 O 3 mainly follows the tip-growth mechanism. The diameter distribution of CNTs is not only influenced by Ni particle size, but also related to the different organics and steam addition.

A solvothermal approach was used to generate N-doped graphene oxide quantum dots (NGOQDs) using MoS 2 and Al 2 O 3 nanocomposites. Through the use of TEM, XRD, Raman, ATR-FTIR, and XPS, the produced composites' shape, composition, and structure were described. Tribological behavior and lubrication properties of NGOQDs-MoS 2 and NGOQDs-Al 2 O 3 nanocomposites as additive in nanofluids during hot roll cladding of copper and steel were studied and rolling lubrication mechanism was disclosed. The outcome demonstrates that tribological performance may be greatly enhanced by combining NGOQDs, and surface quality of the rolled copper and steel, and the addition of NGOQDs-MoS 2 and NGOQDs-Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles can further improve the hot-rolling lubrication properties. The tribofilm, formed through the tribochemically induced lubrication process, significantly enhances the wear and corrosion resistance of rolled copper and steel surfaces.

High-performance dielectric ceramics are vital for next-generation microwave devices, requiring advanced doping and composite strategies to enhance material properties. The (1- x )MgAl 2 O 4 - x Y 3 Al 5 O 12 composite ceramics were found in the MgO-Al 2 O 3 -Y 2 O 3 pseudoternary phase diagram and synthesized via solid-phase reaction. The two phases coexist to improve grain size distribution and achieve a low eutectic temperature, allowing x = 0.1–0.7 samples to gain a dense microstructure ( ρ > 96 %) when sintered at 1650–1670 °C. The semi-coherent interface, coupled with the Mg 2+ /Y 3+ cation transition zone, promotes the formation of a partial solid solution, thereby alleviating interfacial stress at the grain boundaries between MgAl 2 O 4 and Y 3 Al 5 O 12 . Notably, the 0.3MgAl 2 O 4 -0.7Y 3 Al 5 O 12 ceramic exhibits satisfying microwave dielectric properties: ε r = 10.1 ± 0.24, Q × f = 195,000 ± 12,000 GHz, and τ f = −11.9 ppm/°C. In addition to phase composition and microstructure, the enhanced performance can be attributed to the optimized crystal structure. The partial substitution of Y 3+ by Mg 2+ with a smaller radius induced the “rattling” effect and abnormal large permittivity in the [YO 8 ] site. The 27 Al NMR spectra revealed an increase in the Mg-Al inversion degree in the Mg-deficient spinel structure, resulting in the elevated total covalency of the Al-O bond. The structural changes corresponded to a decrease in intrinsic dielectric loss in Mg-Al spinel and an increase in τ f in the Y-Al garnet phase. These findings indicate the (1- x )MgAl 2 O 4 - x Y 3 Al 5 O 12 ceramics have promising applications in the field of HTCC millimeter wave communications.

MgO–Al 2 O 3 -supported metallic Ni and bimetallic Ni–Zn catalysts (referred as Ni/MgAl and Ni x Zn/MgAl with the Ni/Zn atomic ratio of x , respectively) were prepared by the coprecipitation method, and their performance for methane dry reforming (DRM) was tested on an atmospheric quartz fixed-bed. The XRD, magnetic measurement, H 2 -TPR, TEM/EDS and XPS results demonstrate that metallic Ni and Ni–Zn alloy form in Ni/MgAl and Ni x Zn/MgAl, respectively. With reducing the Ni/Zn atomic ratio, the amount of surface Ni sites decreases, while the CO 2 adsorption capacity and strength increase due to the presence of Zn. Ni x Zn/MgAl gives higher activity than Ni/MgAl for DRM, mainly due to the suppression of carbon deposition and graphitization on Ni–Zn alloy and the enhanced adsorption of CO 2 . Under the condition of 800 °C, CH 4 /CO 2 molar ratio of 1 and weight hourly space velocity of 20,000 mL g cat −1 h −1 , Ni/MgAl gives the CH 4 and CO 2 conversions of 76% and 80%, respectively. With decreasing Ni/Zn atomic ratio from 7 to 2, the CH 4 and CO 2 conversions on Ni x Zn/MgAl first increase and then decrease, and Ni 5 Zn/MgAl has the highest activity with the CH 4 and CO 2 conversions of 81% and 87%, respectively. During the time on stream of 100 h at 800 °C, Ni 5 Zn/MgAl exhibits better stability than Ni/MgAl, mainly ascribed to its less amount of filamentous graphite carbon. In all, the formation of Ni–Zn alloy enhances the catalyst activity and remarkably suppresses the graphitization of carbonaceous deposit.
