The development of efficient and stable non-precious bifunctional electrocatalysts is of great significance, but it remains a great challenge. Herein, we have constructed Co/CoP@NC heterojunction catalyst loaded with Co and CoP particles on a nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) substrate using the pyrolysis-oxidation-phosphating strategy. The synergistic effect of Co and CoP particles on the NC substrate increases the active specific surface area, accelerates the charge transfer rate, and improves the intrinsic activities of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The Co/CoP@NC catalyst exhibits superior HER and OER performance. Specifically, the overpotentials required for Co/CoP@NC to reach the current density of 10 mA cm −2 are 142 and 186 mV for HER and OER, respectively. This study provides new insights into the design and synthesis of efficient and stable Co-based heterostructure catalysts.

Cyanide and phenol are highly toxic chemicals that exert severe inhibitory effects on microorganisms, posing significant challenges for their removal by biological methods in coexistent systems. In this study, we successfully isolated a bacterial strain named JF101, identified as Alcaligenes faecalis , which was capable of degrading both cyanide and phenol. The interactions between cyanide and phenol during biodegradation were investigated. It was found that the presence of 100 mg/L cyanide significantly enhanced the degradation of phenol, leading to the complete degradation of 1000 mg/L phenol within 86 h. In contrast, only 21.9% of phenol was degraded in the absence of cyanide. Additionally, the presence of phenol had minimal impact on cyanide degradation; a concentration of 100 mg/L cyanide could be rapidly and completely degraded within 40 min even in the presence of up to 1000 mg/L phenol. Five empirical kinetic models of Haldane, Aiba, Edward, Yano, and Webb were employed to describe the degradation processes of phenol and cyanide in both single-substrate and dual-substrate systems. The putative degrading enzymes, degradation products, and pathways associated with the co-degradation of cyanide and phenol were systematically analyzed. The formamide and NH 4 + -N produced from the rapid degradation of cyanide served as nitrogen sources, facilitating the resumed growth of strain JF101 and enhancing phenol degradation.

Supported Co-based catalysts have shown attractive prospects for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. In this work, Co-doped hydroxyapatite (H-Co/HAP) composites were prepared by a simple hydrothermal method. The Co content in H-Co/HAP could reach 71.2 mg/g, while the Co leaching rate remained relatively low. By right of the excellent catalytic performance, the as-prepared H-Co/HAP could achieve 99.02% degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) within 10 min in the presence of 0.5 mM PMS and a first-order kinetic rate constant of 0.876 min −1 . Even after 8 cycles, the RhB degradation efficiency remained at 81.96%. In addition, the effects of vital reaction parameters, including catalyst dosage, PMS dosage, initial pH, humic acid, and coexisting anions, on the catalytic performance in the H-Co/HAP10/PMS system were systematically investigated and discussed. The degradation mechanism of a non-radical ( 1 O 2 ) as the dominant active specie and a radical (•O 2 − and SO 4 •− ) as the minor active specie was identified through quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance testing. Moreover, possible degradation pathways of RhB were proposed in the H-Co/HAP10/PMS system. Overall, this study offers a meaningful strategy for designing high-content Co-based catalysts to degrade dye molecules in wastewater.

In this study, Co/Cd-MOFs were synthesized via a solvothermal method. The resulting material was subjected to calcination at 900 °C for 2 h and characterized using FT-IR, XRD, and SEM techniques to assess its efficacy in moxifloxacin removal. The experimental findings revealed that the maximum adsorption capacity of Co/Cd-MOFs for moxifloxacin was observed at 350.4 mg/g within a 5 h timeframe. Furthermore, the analysis based on the pseudo-second-order kinetic model demonstrated that the adsorption process adhered to this specific model. Additionally, the adsorption isotherm analysis indicated that Freundlich multilayer adsorption provided the best description of the interaction between moxifloxacin and the Co/Cd-MOF material. These experimental and theoretical results collectively suggest that employing Co/Cd-MOFs as adsorbents holds promise for wastewater treatment applications.

The hydrogenation of levulinic acid (LA) to γ-valerolactone (GVL) is significant for producing chemicals and fuels from renewable resources, a promising direction in biomass refining. Currently, non-precious metal catalysts suffer from low activity due to a single electronic structure, which is incapable of effectively activating both C O in LA and H 2 . Herein we report in situ fabricated Co nanoclusters within positive and metallic Co sites on N-doped carbon, which can simultaneously activate LA's C O and H 2 , enhancing the activity and selectivity for GVL production. Urea-assisted Co dispersion coupled with variation of pyrolysis temperature, Co nanoclusters were formed via direct conversion of Co-containing zinc trimesic acid fibers. The resulting Co nanoclusters possess dual active sites of Co-N x and metallic Co, with adjustable electronic structures. Under the reaction conditions of 200 °C and 4.5 MPa H 2 for 4 h, LA was completely converted, achieving 95 % yield of GVL. The outstanding catalytic activity is attributed to the Co-N x and metallic Co active sites, which facilitate the activation of C O and H 2 , respectively. This research provides a new concept for converting N-free metal-organic frameworks into non-precious metal nanoclusters, offering valuable insights for designing high-performance non-precious metal catalysts for biomass-derived chemical and fuel production.

In this study, we investigate the performance of cobalt-iron co-doped phosphomolybdate (CoFe–PMo) as an efficient electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic electrolyte. We demonstrate that the introduction of cobalt and iron ions into the phosphomolybdate structure enhances its catalytic activity towards OER. The electrochemical measurements reveal that CoFe–PMo exhibits remarkable stability and improved catalytic activity compared to the undoped amminium phosphomolybdate. The overpotential for OER is only 223 mV at 10 mA cm −2 , which is even smaller than that of IrO 2 .The durable tests maintain its performance over 40 h electrolysis period that the current barely drops. This enhanced performance is attributed to the internal redox between doped cobalt-iron ions and Mo ions in PMo, which promotes the charge transfer and enhances the active sites for OER. The results suggest that CoFe–PMo is a promising catalyst for efficient water splitting in acidic electrolyte, highlighting the potential of cobalt-iron co-doped ammonium phosphomolybdate as a cost-effective and durable electrocatalyst for water splitting for H 2 energy in acidic electrolytes.

Rapid and sensitive nucleic acid detection is vital in disease diagnosis and therapeutic assessment. Herein, we propose a co-freezing localized CRISPR-Cas12a (CL-Cas12a) strategy for sensitive nucleic acid detection. The CL-Cas12a was obtained through a 15-minute co-freezing process, allowing the Cas12a/crRNA complex and hairpin reporter confined on the AuNPs surface with high load efficiency, for rapid sensing of nucleic acid with superior performance to other localized Cas12a strategies. This CL-Cas12a based platform could quantitatively detect targets down to 98 aM in 30 min with excellent specificity. Furthermore, the CL-Cas12a successful applied to detect human papillomavirus infection and human lung cancer-associated single-nucleotide mutations. We also achieved powerful signal amplification for imaging Survivin mRNA in living cells. These findings highlight the potential of CL-Cas12a as an effective tool for nucleic acid diagnostics and disease monitoring.Graphical abstract

In addressing the crucial need for separating cobalt ions from leachate solutions of spent ternary lithium batteries (TLBs), this study focuses on the development of an innovative molecular sieve (MS)-based MOFs material, MS-MIL-53(Al), synthesized by combining MS with 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid. Since the powdered MS-MIL-53(Al) material presents a granular powdery form, which is difficult to recover during the adsorption process, electrospun nanofibers denoted as MS-MIL-53(Al)/PAN, were fabricated and functionalized with hydroxylamine hydrochloride to create MS-MIL-53(Al)/AOPAN. Static adsorption experiments conducted with MS-MIL-53(AL)/AOPAN as the adsorbent in cobalt-containing wastewater revealed a maximum adsorption content of 65.3 mg/g for Co(II). Moreover, the material exhibited a tensile strength at the breaking point of 0.077 kPa, indicating its excellent mechanical properties. The adsorption process followed pseudo-second-order kinetics and the Langmuir isotherm model, showcasing a spontaneous, endothermic monolayer chemical adsorption behavior. XPS analysis highlighted the influence of hydroxy and amidoxime functional groups on Co(II) adsorption. Notably, MS-MIL-53(Al)/AOPAN displayed exceptional stability, retaining over 90 % of its adsorption capacity after five cycles, demonstrating its potential for efficient Co(II) separation in wastewater treatment. This study is the first to synthesize MOFs material using MS as the base material, showing potential cost reduction and enhanced adsorption capabilities, with implications for advancing the innovative use of MOFs.

Electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate (NO3−) to ammonia (NH3) is garnering increasing interest due to its potential to reduce CO2 emissions as a substitute for the Haber-Bosch process, while also mitigating NO3− pollution. However, it remains a challenge to achieve a current density exceeding 300 mA cm−2 while maintaining the stability of catalysts. Additionally, the anodic oxygen evolution reaction, characterized by slow kinetics and high energy barriers, severely impedes the widespread adoption of NH3 formation from NO3− reduction. Therefore, in this study, we introduce amorphous phosphorus-doped cobalt catalysts (Co–P@NF) prepared via a facile electrodeposition process for efficient NO3− reduction and hydrazine oxidation. The incorporation of phosphorus in Co–P@NF facilitates electron migration from phosphorus to cobalt, enhancing *H provision for efficient hydrogenation of the intermediate *NO2−. This results in a current density of 2 A cm−2 at −0.3 V, with a faradaic efficiency for NH3 of 91% in an electrolyte containing 1 M NO3−. Moreover, the Co–P@NF catalyst exhibits remarkable long-term stability, maintaining an NH3 faradaic efficiency exceeding 90% and a current density of 799 mA cm−2 after 82 hours of electrolysis. Furthermore, Co–P@NF displays high catalytic activity in promoting the rate-determining step of hydrazine oxidation, from *N2H2 to *N2H. The incorporation of the HzOR (hydrazine oxidation reaction)-assisted NO3−RR (nitrate reduction reaction) unit significantly reduces the cell voltage to 0.34 V at 300 mA cm−2.

As a 2D nanomaterial with high hydrophilic and co-catalytic properties, MXene has been widely studied in the field of membrane separation and advanced oxidation. However, its susceptibility to oxidation in catalytic environments poses a significant challenge to its long-term stability and performance. Therefore, constructing an oxidation-resistant MXene catalytic membrane technology and ensuring its excellent flux and catalytic performance are important for the practical application of MXene membranes. Herein, we prepared a cobalt monoatomic intercalated M/E0.1-Co catalytic separation membrane by mild reduction of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG). EGCG not only connects the MXene lamellae during filtration through strong hydrogen bonding, but also protects the chemical stability of the MXene substrate through its antioxidant ability. Furthermore, the trace amount of EGCG in the confined domain space also promotes the rate-limiting step of the transition from the high-valent state to the low-valent state in Co single-atom catalysis. The stability of the catalytic separation layer was ensured along with a 100% degradation performance of sulfamethoxazole. This study establishes a bridge between the catalytic oxidation and chemical stability of a wide range of MXene-based materials nowadays and provides a viable proposal for the practical application of long-term utilized MXene materials in catalysis.

Plasma catalysis offers a flexible and decentralized solution for CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol under ambient conditions, avoiding the high temperatures and pressures required for thermal catalysis. However, the reaction mechanism, particularly plasma-assisted surface reactions, remains unclear, limiting the development of efficient catalysts for selective methanol synthesis. Here, we report a bimetallic Ni-Co catalyst effective in plasma-catalytic CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol at 35°C and 0.1 MPa, achieving 46% methanol selectivity and 24% CO 2 conversion. In situ plasma-coupled Fourier transform infrared characterization, along with density functional theory calculations, reveals that the engineered bimetallic sites act as primary active centers for methanol synthesis, promoting the rate-determining step in H-radical-induced reaction pathways by reducing steric hindrance effects. This work demonstrates the significant potential of bimetallic catalysts in plasma-catalytic CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol under ambient conditions, representing a major step toward sustainable CO 2 conversion and fuel production.

In this study, a novel Co-modified MoS 2 loaded spherical biochar (Co-MoS 2 @BC) derived from renewable biomass was synthesized as an efficient anodic HMFOR electrocatalyst. In the HMFOR process, the Co-MoS 2 @BC required a potential of only 1.426 V for the current density of 100 mA/cm 2 , significantly outperforming that of the MoS 2 loaded on spherical biochar (MoS 2 @BC) and the Co nanoparticles loaded on spherical biochar (Co@BC). Furthermore, the HMF conversion ratio reached 99.6 %, FDCA selectivity was 99.7 %, and Faradaic efficiency was 99.3 %. The Mechanistic studies reveal that the modified-Co on the MoS 2 modulated the electronic structure of Co-MoS 2 @BC, which not only enhanced the interaction between Co-MoS 2 @BC and the electrolyte, thereby facilitating the evolution of the catalysts toward highly active species, but also improved the adsorption of HMF and the H + transfer e - coupling step during the HMFOR process.
