Photothermal catalytic CO 2 reduction can combine photocatalysis and thermal catalysis by using full-spectrum solar energy to convert CO 2 into high value-added chemicals. This can effectively alleviate the problems of excessive CO 2 emissions and thermal catalytic energy waste. In this paper, a novel catalyst was prepared using Ce-MOF as a precursor to generate Cu/Ni/CeO 2 for efficient reduction of CO 2 to CO by hydrogenation. Due to the rod-like structure of CeO 2 and the high dispersion of Cu and Ni nanoparticles, 10%Cu 5%Ni CeO 2 can achieve a catalytic activity of 54.21 mmol g −1 h −1 in the full solar spectrum. The supported Cu and Ni metals are the active sites for catalytic reduction. Meanwhile, Cu and Ni enhanced the light absorption ability of the catalyst and the surface temperature under illumination. This is due to the hot charge carriers generated by LSPR effect in Ni and Cu metal nanoparticles, which can dissipate energy through local heating, thus increasing the temperature of the catalyst under illumination. It can be found that the CO 2 reduction activity of photo-assisted thermocatalysis is higher than that of thermal catalysis under the same conditions. Therefore, the combined effect of the electrons generated by UV–Vis light and the heating effect of near-infrared light on catalyst could improve the catalytic activity. This work might provide a potential strategy for efficient photothermal reduction of CO 2 in the future.

This work demonstrated that electrochemical sensing devices can be fabricated by electrocatalytic water oxidation. First, we suggested that the Cu(II) complexes with amino terminal Cu(II)- and Ni(II)-binding (ATCUN) peptides showed good electrocatalytic ability toward water oxidation. In contrast to the previously reported electrocatalysts for water oxidation, the ATCUN-Cu(II) electrocatalysts can operate at neural pH with lower oxidation potential. Furthermore, the ATCUN-Cu(II) metallopeptides can be easily modified onto the surface of nanomaterials to produce nanocatalysts for water oxidation. To demonstrate the analytical performances of the ATCUN-Cu(II) electrocatalysts as electrochemical signal labels, DNA analysis was performed in a sandwich option using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as the carriers. The method detected DNA down to 0.1 pM. This is the first time that H 2 O molecule was employed as the electrocatalytic substrate in electrochemical sensing devices.

In this study, straw biochar (TB) was prepared by pyrolysis at 500 °C, and biochar composite material (TBS) was prepared by a 1:4 mass ratio with sludge (TS). Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were utilized to characterize the material before and after adsorption. The results demonstrated that TBS possesses significant pore structure characteristics and abundant active functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and carbonyl groups, providing a structural basis for its efficient adsorption of heavy metal ions in aqueous solutions. The adsorption performance of the remediation materials for Cu(II) and Pb(II) in aqueous solution was systematically investigated. Experimental data showed that TBS achieved maximum adsorption capacities of 60.86 and 46.98 mg/g for Cu(II) and Pb(II) at equilibrium, respectively, exhibiting superior adsorption efficiency. Through fitting analysis using adsorption kinetic models and isothermal adsorption models, it was found that the pseudo-second-order kinetic model and Freundlich isothermal model could more accurately describe the adsorption process of the two heavy metal ions, indicating that chemical adsorption was the dominant mechanism and characterized by multilayer adsorption. Thermodynamic parameter calculations revealed negative ΔG values and positive ΔH and ΔS values, suggesting that the adsorption process was a spontaneous, entropy-increasing, and endothermic reaction. These research results fully validate the excellent removal capabilities of TBS for Cu(II) and Pb(II). This study has shown that TBS can be considered a promising and cost-effective adsorbent, demonstrating its potential to adsorb heavy metal ions in water.

Tailoring the interface between the polymer matrix and filler to probe the structure-performance relationship is one of the critical research issues in hybrid membranes. In this study, metal organic framework (MOF) incorporated hybrid membranes are fabricated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as the matrix and Cu(II) loaded UiO-67-bpydc (bpydc refers to 2,2′-bipyridine-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid) as the filler, which are utilized for removing thiophene from model gasoline. The structure-performance relationship of the resultant membranes was investigated. The flux of the hybrid membrane shows a remarkable increase while avoiding obvious loss of selectivity. The loading of Cu(II) onto UiO-67-bpydc effectively tailors the interface between the polymer matrix and filler, which enhances the membrane separation performance. This study may offer a new example for designing MOF-based hybrid membranes towards efficient molecular separation.

Cu-modified SAPO-34 molecular sieves with different Cu loading amounts were prepared by ion-exchange and impregnation methods. Both series of catalysts were hydrothermally treated at 750 °C in 10 vol% H 2 O/air for 24 h. The catalysts were characterized by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H 2 temperature-programmed reduction (H 2 -TPR), NH 3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH 3 -TPD) and diffused reflectance infrared flourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS). All the fresh catalysts show high activity toward the selective catalytic reduction of NO x with NH 3 (NH 3 -SCR) at low temperatures regardless of preparation method. Generally, the hydrothermal aging shifts the operation window of the catalysts towards high temperatures. The improvement in high-temperatures activity is attributed to the migration of surface CuO clusters into the ion-exchanged sites as isolated Cu 2+ during ageing, which suppresses the competitive oxidation of NH 3 . The loss of low-temperatures activity is also related to the decrease in the amount of active surface CuO clusters, inhibiting the oxidation of NO to NO 2 and fast SCR reaction. Interestingly, the amount of Lewis acid sites increase linearly with the increasing isolated Cu 2+ , while the Brønsted acidity is weakened.

The absorption of propylene and propane in Cu(I)-based ionic liquids, i.e., 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride/CuCl ([Bmim][Cl]/CuCl), N-Methyl pyrrolidone chloride/CuCl ([HNMP][Cl]/CuCl), and tricaprylmethylammonium thiocyanate/CuSCN ([A336][SCN]/CuSCN), are investigated in this work. It is observed that such Cu(I)-based ionic liquids, especially Bmim-based ionic liquids, present good absorption capability for propylene and good selectivity over propane, e.g., 1.0 kilogram [Bmim][Cl]/CuCl is able to absorb 0.08 mol propylene while only 0.006 mol propane at 25°C and 1.3 bar with the selectivity of 13. The effects of pressure, Cu+ concentration, and temperature on the absorption are investigated; in addition, the absorption kinetics of propylene by [Bmim][Cl]/CuCl is obtained. The much higher absorption capability for propylene than propane is ascribed to the π-complexation between propylene and Cu+. This work shows that the absorption by Cu(I)-based ionic liquids is an potential alternative method for traditional cryogenic distillation with high energy cost to separate propylene and propane.

The diatomic catalysts (DACs) provide a new strategy for efficient catalysis of CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) owing to their maximum atomic utility and more flexible active sites. However, it is still challenging to precisely design heteronuclear diatomic active centers and understand the coordination mechanism of binary sites at the atomic level. Herein, a nitrogen-doped carbon matrix with precisely controlled Fe–Cu diatom sites is synthesized through a metal–organic framework. The as-obtained Fe/Cu–N–C catalyst exhibits an excellent CO faradaic efficiency (>95% over a wide potential range of −0.4 to −1.1 V vs. RHE, 99.2% at −0.8 V vs. RHE), a high turnover frequency (5047 h−1 at −1.1 V vs. RHE), and a low overpotential (50 mV), thus outperforming most reported atomically dispersed catalysts. Further density functional theory calculations indicate that the synergy between Fe–Cu diatoms causes rapid charge transfer and effectively adjusts the position of the d-band center, which reduces the energy barriers for *COOH formation and *CO desorption. This work provides a new approach for advancing universal synthesis strategies to construct heteronuclear diatomic catalysts and explore synergistic effects.

Although fluorescent nanozymes exhibit great potential in sensing fields, few current nanozyme-based sensors are designed to discriminate catechol (CC) from its two isomers. Herein, fluorescent metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanozyme is utilized for ratiometric and selective detection of CC without the interferences of hydroquinone (HQ) and resorcinol (RC). NH 2 -Cu-MOF plays multiple roles: (1) it exhibits excellent photoluminescence at 435 nm owing to the 2-amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid ligand; (2) Cu 2+ imparts MOF oxidase activity to trigger the oxidation of o -phenylenediamine (OPD) into luminescent products (oxOPD) with emissive peak at 571 nm, which quenches the intrinsic fluorescence of NH 2 -Cu-MOF (435 nm) through inner filter effect (IFE); (3) Cu 2+ can complex with CC specifically to produce complex containing o -semiquinone, which not only inhibits MOF’s oxidase-like activity but also quenches the fluorescence of MOF. Therefore, the presence of CC induces the decrease of fluorescence at 571 nm followed by the slight recovery of fluorescence at 435 nm. Notably, HQ and RC have negligible influences on the fluorescence of NH 2 -Cu-MOFs/OPD system. Based on these facts, a ratiometric fluorescence platform for CC has been constructed. It exhibits high sensitivity towards CC with LOD of 0.1 μM.

Magnetic particles with active groups on their surfaces can be applied to wastewater purification to remove harmful ions, but the insufficient number of active groups on their surfaces tends to limit their removal rate of ions. Herein, we grafted different generations of dendritic macromolecular polyamidoamine (PAMAM) onto the magnetic chitosan microspheres (MCS) using ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) as core (MCEPs) for the removal of Cu (II). Firstly, 7 μm-sized MCS with good dispersibility was prepared by adjusting conditions such as glacial acetic acid content, emulsifier content and raw material ratio. Secondly, the effect of MCEPs generation, pH and contact time on the adsorption capacity were investigated. The adsorption experiments showed that the MCEPs had a high adsorption capacity, when the adsorbent was the second generation of MCEP (MCEP G2.0), the maximum adsorption capacity can up to 702.9 mg/g and the adsorption process can be completed in 60 min. Moreover, among various isotherms models, MCEP G2.0 was well-fitted by Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Also, adsorption kinetic studies proved that the adsorption mechanism of MCEP G2.0 adsorbent followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, demonstrating that the process was chemisorption. The adsorbent has renewability as well, after five adsorption cycles, its adsorption efficiency was still higher than 80%. Therefore, the adsorbent showed a superior adsorption capacity and renewability to remove Cu (II). Graphical

The solar driven reduction of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) to high value-added carbon based fuel is a promising solution to mitidate climate and energy problems, however, improving the adsorption and conversion efficiency of CO 2 in the photoreduction process still faces severe challenges. In this work, Cd 0·7 Zn 0·3 Se solid solution was prepared by cation exchange: selenium (Se) vacancies are produced during ion exchange, which promotes the unsaturated coordination of the surrounding metal atoms. The adsorption of diethylenetriamine (DETA) on the surface limits the growth of Cd x Zn 1- x Se crystallites , resulting in insufficient coordination of the surface atoms, which then become active adsorption sites. Furthermore, a heterojunction was formed with Cu 2 O@Cu to accelerate the separation and transfer of photo-induced carriers of Cd 0·7 Zn 0·3 Se, and the optimized Cd 0·7 Zn 0·3 Se/Cu 2 O@Cu (CZS/CC) step-scheme heterojunction exhibited a CO release activity of 50.5 μmol g −1 h −1 , which is 3.8 and 10.7 times higher than that of Cd 0·7 Zn 0·3 Se and Cu 2 O@Cu, respectively. This work is expected to open up new insight for the regulation of nanostructures and the design of selective catalysts.

Natural enzyme cascades, including the same and different kinds of enzymes, have been widely used in biosensing. However, it is still a challenge for nanozymes, the mimics of natural enzymes, to achieve biosensing with different types of enzyme-like activities based on cascade reactions, such as hydrolase and oxidoreductase. Considering the characteristics of the multienzyme-like activity of some nanozymes, as a proof of concept, this study demonstrates a Cu/Ce-MOF-808 nanozyme as a self-cascade catalyst with hydrolase-like and catechol oxidase-like activities. Taking organophosphorus pesticides as an example, we constructed a self-cascade catalytic reaction for the one-step colorimetric detection of isocarbophos. Specifically, the hydrolase-like activity of Cu/Ce-MOF-808 can hydrolyze isocarbophos to produce colorless isopropyl salicylate, which is further oxidized by the catechol oxidase-like activity of Cu/Ce-MOF-808 and complexed with 4-aminoantipyrine (4-AAP) to produce red quinoneimine under neutral conditions with illumination. Thus, a colorimetric strategy for sensitive isocarbophos analysis is developed, with a linear range of 0.90–400.00 μg·mL–1 and a detection limit of 0.42 μg·mL–1. This research presents a new approach to the design and synthesis of nanozymes and has great application potential in the field of nanozyme cascade biosensing.

The low selectivity for N2 in the oxidation of NH3 over commercial Pt/Al2O3 catalysts is primarily due to the overoxidation of NH3 facilitated by Pt sites, leading to the formation of unwanted byproducts such as N2O and NO. In this study, we present a novel strategy to enhance N2 selectivity while maintaining NH3 conversion by constructing Pt–O–Cu dual sites. These dual sites exhibit synergistic acid-redox characteristics through surface electron transfer mediated by bridged lattice oxygen. Additionally, the ability of surface-adsorbed oxygen to exchange with lattice oxygen is significantly improved. The electron-deficient Cu sites enhance NH3 adsorption by providing empty 3d orbitals, while the electron-rich Pt sites promote NH3 dehydrogenation. Subsequently, the formation of –NH or –N intermediates at the Pt sites can react with adsorbed NH3 on the Cu sites to produce N2, predominantly following the integrated selective catalytic reduction mechanism. The optimized dual-site catalyst achieves over 95% NH3 conversion and N2 selectivity at 180 °C.
