Dehydration of layer metal hydroxides at controlled annealing temperatures is an efficient strategy for regulating the material properties. In this work, we studied the dehydration process of α-Co(OH) 2 with flower-like nanostructure under various conditions and explored their gas sensing application. Stable dehydrated α-Co(OH) 2 obtained by solidification in air at 140 °C, exhibits specific selective low-temperature gas-sensing behavior for Et 3 N. The response to 50 ppm Et 3 N was up to 9.52 at 140 °C operating temperature with short response and recovery time. The sensor is the high reversibility and the excellent reproducibility with ppb level detection limit. The partial oxidation of the dehydration α-Co(OH) 2 in the air has a significant impact on the sensing performance. The large specific surface area of the dehydration α-Co(OH) 2 affords rich reactive sites for both reaction and adsorption of Et 3 N molecules. This research provides a new solution for building low-temperature high-performance amine sensor.

Recently, the monitoring of TEA has garnered significant attention, particularly concerning food safety, which could potentially lead to health risks. However, current studies on the detection of TEA using tungsten trioxide (WO 3 ) materials are suboptimal and require the exploration of effective WO 3 -based sensitive materials. This work employs a one-step solvothermal method to synthesize Sn-doped WO 3 materials with varying ratios and analyzes their selectivity and sensitivity to gases. The physicochemical properties of materials were characterized using multiple techniques including XRD, SEM, XPS, BET and Raman spectroscopy. The high response to TEA gas is successfully achieved by adjusting the doping amount of Sn 4+ (∼12 wt%). Qualitative analyses indicate that 10 wt% Sn-WO 3 exhibits superior response to TEA in all samples, showcasing a response of 94.5 at 175 °C for 100 ppm TEA, which is 5.7 times higher than that of WO 3 . Also, the related mechanisms were studied in detail. The low-intensity ratio of the (002) facet, small particle size, large specific surface area, and high concentration of oxygen vacancy defects resulting from Sn 4+ doping play pivotal roles in enhancing the response to TEA. It is expected that this work will contribute to advancements in WO 3 -based materials in the field of gas sensing.

Electrochemical gas sensors (EGSs) are the most effective means for detecting NO 2 gas in industry, while facing the issue of exorbitant cost due to the use of expensive Pt catalyst. Herein, well-dispersed C-SiO 2 into polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) was adopt as high-stable gas diffusion membrane for ultrafast electrochemical NO 2 sensors. The nano-SiO 2 not only prevents material aggregation but also constructs porous networks between the gas diffusion electrode and gas molecules, providing a larger sensing area for high sensor performance. The fabricated sensor exhibits excellent response linearity, short response time, and high stability. As compared with commercial Pt/C electrode, the sensor response is improved by 170 %. Moreover, a multiple linear regression model was introduced to predict the response values of NO 2 in the range of 5–100 ppm, achieving only 1.5 % deviation from the real values. This work not only demonstrates the feasibility of non-precious metals in gas diffusion membranes but also provides guide for designing next-generation low-cost EGSs.

In this study, we found that β-Mo2C prepared at different carbonization temperatures exhibited significantly different catalytic activities for the reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction. The β-Mo2C synthesized at 600 °C demonstrated notably higher activity compared to those prepared at 700 °C and 800 °C. This enhanced activity was likely attributed to its improved redox properties, which were primarily driven by a smaller crystallite size and the presence of MoxOCy species. Therefore, we proposed that the crystallite size and MoxOCy content were the key factors governing the RWGS activity of β-Mo2C. Clearly, both factors were strongly influenced by the carbonization temperature. Notably, the β-Mo2C prepared at 600 °C even outperformed Cu-doped β-Mo2C prepared at 700 °C under similar reaction conditions.

Tungsten disulfide (WS2) is emerging with dazzling visibility as a “layered material beyond graphene and molybdenum disulfide” due to its exquisite tunable electronic, surface structure, high carrier mobility, and physicochemical stability. In this article, In2O3 and Au nanoparticles (NPs) co-modified WS2 microsheets were prepared for detecting NO2 at room temperature (RT). The In2O3 and Au NPs were anchored on the surface of WS2 microsheets, which could be observed by the characterization. The NO2 sensing performance at RT was optimized by adjusting the contents of In2O3 and Au NPs. The proposed gas sensor based on Au1WIn6 (WS2 microsheets co-modified with 6 wt% In2O3 and 1 wt% Au NPs) showed the highest response (46.91 to 50 ppm NO2), limit of detection (LOD; 18.9 ppb), excellent linearity within the test range, and good stability under various relative humidity (RH), bending degrees, and bending times. The excellent result is attributed to the formation of a heterojunction, which increases the number of ionized oxygen adsorption sites and facilitates the reaction between NO2 gas and Au1WIn6. Therefore, it is believed that decorating WS2 microsheets with metal oxide and noble metal NPs is a promising strategy to improve the NO2 sensing property at RT.

The reverse water–gas shift (RWGS) reaction has been identified as one of the most techno-economically viable strategies for handling with antropogenic CO 2 emissions, but high-efficiency RWGS catalysts are still challenging. Herein, a series of In-modified Ni-based catalysts with variations of the support and the Ni/In ratio were prepared by a simple wet impregnation method. The high activity for RWGS reaction is achieved on the CeO 2 -supported catalysts. The incorporation of In into Ni/CeO 2 catalysts significantly increases CO selectivity. The optimal 10Ni-5In-CeO 2 catalyst shows 97.2 % CO selectivity at CO 2 conversion rate of 52.8 mmol g Ni −1 h −1 for 100 h without obvious deactivation at 350 °C. The oxygen vacancies on CeO 2 and the active *H species on Ni-In intermetallic compounds (IMCs) are responsible for the enhancement of RWGS reaction. This work provides a guidance to high-efficiency catalysts for CO 2 hydrogenation by cooperation between active metal and oxide support.

Using porous materials to selectively adsorb H 2 O from natural gas is a promising method to dehydrate methane (CH 4 ). The structure of a Zirconium metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF), namely, MIP-202, features a high density of amino groups, which can produce strong hydrogen bonding with H 2 O molecules. MIP-202 is cost-effective, green and scalable, and it exhibits good chemical stability under various conditions. This work incorporated MIP-202 nanoparticles into the high permeability polymer polyetherimide (PEI), and the obtained Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMMs) was used for the gas separation of H 2 O/CH 4 . It is found that MMMs loaded with 20 wt% of MIP-202 demonstrated a high H 2 O/CH 4 selectivity of 832.2, which was about 760 times of that of the pure PEI. This approach offers a new route to fabricate functional membranes for energy-efficient gas separations.

To effectively improve biomass growth and flue-gas CO 2 fixation of microalgae, acid-tolerant Euglena gracilis was modified with cobalt-60 γ-ray irradiation and polyethylene glycol (PEG) adaptive screening to obtain the mutant strain M800. The biomass dry weight and maximum CO 2 fixation rate of M800 were both 1.47 times higher than that of wild strain, which was attributed to a substantial increase in key carbon fixation enzyme RuBisCO activity and photosynthetic pigment content. The high charge separation quantum efficiency in PSII reaction center, efficient light utilization and energy regulation that favors light conversion, were the underlying drivers of efficient photosynthetic carbon fixation in M800. M800 had stronger antioxidant capacity in sufficient high-carbon environment, alleviating lipid peroxidation damage. After adding 1 mM PEG, biomass dry weight of M800 reached 2.31 g/L, which was 79.1 % higher than that of wild strain. Cell proliferation of M800 was promoted, the apoptosis and necrosis rates decreased.

Mercury, a toxic heavy metal, poses significant risks to human health. Coal-fired power plants are the largest anthropogenic sources of mercury emissions, making mercury removal from flue gas imperative. Among various mercury adsorbents, metal selenides show promising potential in mercury capture. Here, we reported the synthesis of a novel three-dimensional hierarchical flower-like material, SnSe2, and its debut application in flue gas mercury capture. Under the influence of low-coordinated selenium, the introduction of abundant selenium vacancy defects led to the exposure of additional active sites in the adsorbent. Additionally, the presence of Sn enhanced gas selectivity and promoted electron transfer processes, thereby augmenting Hg0 adsorption and oxidation performance. Benefiting from these advantages, SnSe2 exhibited superior mercury removal performance over a wide temperature range (30–180 °C), with a saturated mercury adsorption capacity of 2027.23 μg/g, surpassing that of commercial activated carbon. Furthermore, the presence of NO in flue gas improved mercury adsorption performance, while high concentrations of SO2 do not affect mercury removal efficiency, as elucidated by adsorption kinetics models. Moreover, the mercury adsorption mechanism was demonstrated through mercury temperature-programmed desorption (Hg-TPD) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Finally, toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) experiments confirmed SnSe2 as an efficient and permanent adsorbent for mercury, offering insights into the application of novel mercury removal materials.

Pt-loaded In 2 O 3 mesoporous nanofibers (NFs) have been prepared by electrospinning, followed by a facile reduction method. The sample obtained by adding tea saponin into the spinning solution, sample In-TS, displays a more than 4 times higher specific surface area, value of 86.9 m 2 g −1 , than that of conventionally prepared samples. The loading with small-sized Pt nanoparticles (NPs) determines excellent gas sensing performance towards NO 2 down to ppb level (R g /R a = 2.8 to 10 ppb and 23.9–1 ppm) at room temperature (RT), by that significantly lowering the power consumption. The reason is that the open pores and channels on the mesoporous NFs generated by the foaming agent not only promote the adsorption and desorption of NO 2 molecules on the sensing layers, but also improves the transduction function of the sensors by ensuring that there are no parts of the fiber that are not accessible to the gases. The introduction of Pt to the mesoporous NFs could accelerate the dissociation of absorbed oxygen and the active surface reactions in NO 2 owing to the catalytic property and chemical sensitization of well-dispersed Pt NPs. Due to the unique gas sensing performance, sample In-TS-Pt has a prospect for applications in low-concentration NO 2 detection at RT.

As a promising technique for multiphase catalytic reactions, the widespread applications of gas–liquid–solid microreactors are still limited by poor durability. Hence, in this work, a method for the preparation of Pd nanocatalysts inside a gas–liquid–solid microreactor was proposed to realize long-term durability using electroless deposition on the polydopamine functionalized surface followed by hydrogen reduction. This method not only increases the utilization efficiency of the Pd ions but also improves the durability of the microreactor. The chemical composition and topography characterization of the fabricated catalyst layer were tested using XPS and FESEM, respectively. The results indicated that the incorporation of hydrogen reduction resulted in nearly all palladium ions being reduced and the palladium nanoparticles were dispersed uniformly on the polydopamine modified surface. The microreactor prepared by this method exhibited high durability and high nitrobenzene conversion as compared to the traditional electroless catalyst deposition. Besides, it was shown that the increased inlet nitrobenzene concentration and flow rates played a negative role in the durability. The longer microreactor exhibited a better durability.

A room-temperature NO2 gas sensor with excellent performances is fabricated using an MAPbI3 (MA = CH3NH3+) thin film. It presents a high response even under extremely low NO2 concentrations. Its average response and recovery times are only ∼5 s and ∼25 s at room temperature, respectively, exhibiting its quick-responsive character. In addition, the MAPbI3-based NO2 sensor exhibits good selectivity. Interestingly, the sensitivity of the MAPbI3-based NO2 sensor is strikingly improved under high-pressure gas conditions. This phenomenon can be used for the online monitoring of chemical reaction processes and in situ detection of trace-level gas impurities under high-pressure conditions. Furthermore, based on theoretical calculations, a simple model is proposed to illustrate the corresponding gas-sensing mechanism.
