In this paper, iron and nitrogen co-doped carbon material with nanotube structure (Fe/N-C CM -T) was synthesized by pyrolyzing a mixture of Fe salt, chitosan and melamine and displayed high electrocatalytic performance for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The structure of the Fe/N-C CM -T was characterized and their ORR performance in alkaline media was investigated by linear sweep voltammetry , cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry . Fe/N-C CM -T displayed better ORR performance than other carbon materials like Fe/N-C C -800. The Fe/N-C CM -800 with a large surface area (302.5 m 2 /g) especially exhibited the best ORR electrocatalytic performance among the prepared carbon materials, which was also proved by its similar Tafel slope (76 mV decade −1 ) to Pt/C catalyst (74 mV decade −1 ). Fe/N-C CM -800 showed similar ORR activity as commercial Pt/C catalyst, but superior tolerance to methanol and stability. Such high ORR performance of the Fe/N-C CM -T can be attributed to its nanotube structure, high specific surface area (SSA), high graphitic-N and pyridinic-N contents.

Antimony enrichment in aquatic environments is of great concern to international community. High-temperature geothermal waters usually contain excessive Sb, which are apt to contaminate the groundwaters or surface waters used as drinking waters in and around a hydrothermal area. However, Sb removal from geothermal water is rarely documented and the effect of high temperature on Sb removal has not received much attention. In this study, batch sorption experiments were conducted to investigate Sb removal from water by a hydroxyl-intercalated, mechanochemically synthesized Mg-Fe-LDH (i.e. Mg-Fe-OH-LDH) capable of avoiding secondary pollutions commonly related to other Mg-Fe-LDH intercalated by undesirable anions, such as Cl − and NO 3 − . The sorption capacities of Mg-Fe-OH-LDH for Sb(III) and Sb(V) were up to 48.7 and 30.0 mg/g, respectively. Notably, Mg-Fe-OH-LDH performed even better in removing aqueous Sb(V) at higher temperatures, superior to sorption of Sb by iron oxides that is generally exothermic and tends to be inhibited by increasing reaction temperature. The removal of Sb(V) existing as Sb(OH) 6 − by Mg-Fe-OH-LDH was attributable to its exchange with interlayer hydroxyl, and therefore could be impaired to some degree by coexisting anions with stronger electronegativity or smaller ionic radii . In contrast, anion exchange didn't contribute so much to Sb(III) sorption, because the main Sb(III) species at pH < 10 is neutral Sb(OH) 3 . XPS analyses confirmed that inner-sphere complexation between sorbed Sb(III) and Fe on Mg-Fe-OH-LDH layers was formed, which was hardly affected by competitive anions. Mg-Fe-OH-LDH is promising to be practically applied in removing both Sb(III) and Sb(V) from contaminated natural waters, wastewaters, or geothermal waters potentially acting as a pollution source .

To further improve the ethanol sensing performance of LaFeO 3 (LFO) nanoparticles, the co-doping of acceptor and donor at La and Fe sites at equal mole amount was designed to increase the oxygen adsorbing ability of the resultant nanoparticles. A series of (La,Ba)(Fe,Ti)O 3 nanoparticles, with the designed mole ratios of Ba/La (Ti/Fe) as 0, 0.25, 0.33, 0.50, and 1.0, were prepared by a citric sol–gel method. XRD confirmed the main phase of orthorhombic LFO, and the impurity phases of cubic BaTiO 3 (BTO) and orthorhombic BaCO 3 . The incorporation of Ba and Ti into the LFO lattice was verified by the increased unit cell volume of LFO upon more doping. TEM, BET, and XPS measurements indicated that the appropriate co-doping of Ba and Ti into the LFO lattice and the simultaneous existence of BTO and BaCO 3 resulted in smaller grain size, larger BET surface area, and thus higher concentration of adsorbed oxygen species than those in the pristine LFO nanoparticle. Among all (La,Ba)(Fe,Ti)O 3 sensors, the sensor based on the (La,Ba)(Fe,Ti)O 3 nanoparticles with the designed Ba/La = 0.50 exhibited the highest gas response and sensitivity toward ethanol at the prime working temperature of 132 °C, which was ascribed to the higher surface oxygen coverage contributed by the synergistic effect of co-doping and impurity phases on the number of surface active sites and oxygen adsorbing ability.

The disposal and management of waste sludge is a considerable challenge for environmental protection and resource utilization. Herein, sludge-based biochar material loaded with nano-Fe 3 O 4 (xS@Fe-y) was fabricated via hydrothermal carbonization process and employed as catalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for degrading organic dyes in wastewater. Benefiting from the proper iron content, porous structure and the good dispersibility of iron on the catalyst surface, the proposed 5S@Fe-500 catalyst not only exhibited excellent catalytic activity and durability in the activation of PMS to degrade Rhodamine B (RhB), which was almost completely removed in 10 min (50 mL 50 mg L −1 ), but also performed broad application prospects in pollutant degradation . More importantly, the free radical quenching test and electron spin-resonance spectroscopy (ESR) detection demonstrated that O 2 • - , SO 4 • - , OH and 1 O 2 were generated during the process of catalyst activation of PMS. Based on this, a possible reaction pathway for degrading RhB with the aid of 5S@Fe-500 was put forward. It is believed that this work offers a promising reuse method of converting the waste sludge to a high efficiency and low-cost nano magnetic catalyst to activate PMS for degrading refractory organic pollutants in aquatic surroundings.

In view of the dual active sites mechanism of direct ethanol synthesis and the excellent catalytic performance of bimetallic catalysts, a series of Ni–Fe alloy catalysts with different Ni/Fe molar ratios derived from layered double hydroxides (LDHs) precursors are synthesized. During the calcination and reduction process of LDHs precursors, the Ni–Fe alloy is obtained, and attributed to all the elements being evenly dispersed at the atomic level in the LDHs precursors; meanwhile, a strong interaction between Ni–Fe alloy and MgAl 2 O 4 support exists. As a result, Ni–Fe alloy nanoparticles are highly dispersed on the MgAl 2 O 4 surface. The high CO adsorption ability on the Ni–Fe alloy and synergism catalysis between Ni and Fe result in excellent catalytic activity and high selectivity to ethanol on the bimetallic Ni–Fe alloy. In addition, the strong antisintering ability and stable alloy structure bring about a good catalytic stability. This research proposes a new catalytic system for direct ethanol synthesis from syngas.

A novel catalyst (Fe-MOFs-MW) was facilely synthesized under microwave-assisted with NaOH as modulator for activating peroxydisulfate (PDS). The accelerated nucleation process was confirmed by Johnson-Mehl-Avrami (JMA) model. There were abundant reactive sites on prepared Fe-MOFs-MW while maintaining high Space-Time-Yield value up to 2300 kg/m 3 ·d. Degradation performance of Fe-MOFs-MW as PDS catalyst on sulfamethoxazole (SMX) removal was evaluated. Results indicated that Fe-MOFs-MW with more Fe element anchored (10%) exhibited excellent catalytic capacity for PDS. Besides, the fantastic stability and reusability were confirmed through recycle experiment. After recycled for 4 times, the removal efficiency of SMX and TOC was 88% and 31.3% compared to 98% and 38% without recycling, respectively. An accurate prediction model on the degradation effect with water matrices coexisted was established by response surface methodology (RSM) method. Moreover, SO 4 ·- , O 2 ·- and ·OH were confirmed as the main reactive species through chemical quenching and EPR tests. The mechanism of Fe-MOFs-MW/PDS process mainly based on electron circulation theory was proposed. As the robust PDS catalyst, facile prepared Fe-MOFs-MW was promising in the treatment of emerging pollutants.

To meet the increasing demand for methyl methacrylate, a series of Fe modified Cs–P/γ-Al2O3 catalysts were developed through the impregnation method and tested for the aldol condensation of methyl propionate with formaldehyde in a fixed-bed reactor. Through various characterization studies, the physicochemical properties of the catalysts were systematically studied, especially the relationship between the number of the acid sites and catalytic activity. The number of medium acid sites was increased effectively by the addition of Fe, and the catalytic selectivity was improved consequently. Moreover, the reaction conditions were also optimized, and the life span of the optimized catalyst was evaluated. The Cs–P–0.1Fe/γ-Al2O3 showed excellent reusability during a 260 h lifetime experiment.

A novel Ni–Fe nanosheets catalyst supported on α-Al 2 O 3 foam ceramic was synthesized by a hydrothermal method and used to obtain multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) via the propane partial oxidation . Catalytic performance tests were carried out at 600 °C and atmospheric pressure using a fixed-bed reactor. The synthesized catalysts and carbon materials were analyzed using various characterization methods. According to the field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) results, the catalyst morphology was a 3D grid structure consisting of nanosheets 800 nm length and 80 nm width. Additionally, the quantity and quality of the carbon nanotubes were greatly influenced by different oxygen-to-propane molar ratios, defined as the equivalence ratio ϕ (ϕ = 1.5, 1.78, 2). Transmission electron microscope (TEM) images showed that carbon nanotubes over all catalysts were MWNTs. In addition, the thermogravimetric analysis and Raman data showed that a high yield of MWNTs was obtained at ϕ = 1.78, but the accumulated MWNTs at ϕ = 1.5 exhibited a higher degree of graphitization (I D /I G = 0.89) compared with the other two equivalence ratios.

Delicate design of hierarchical and porous nanoarchitectures has become a highly effective strategy to develop novel bimetallic catalyst with improved stability and catalytic performance. Herein, a core-shell hierarchical 4A zeolite/Fe@Cu Fenton-like catalyst with 4A zeolite/Fe as core components and two-dimensional Cu hydroxide nanosheets assemblies as shell structure was fabricated through a simple and scalable approach and used for phenol degradation. The results indicated that 4A zeolite/Fe@Cu bimetallic catalyst had higher catalytic activity and utilization efficiency of H 2 O 2 than that of 4A zeolite/Fe and 4A zeolite@Cu monometallic catalysts at near neutral pH. In the presence of H 2 O 2 , the 4A zeolite/Fe@Cu bimetallic catalyst could remove 95.3 % phenol after 4 h at pH 5, which was much higher than that of monometallic catalyst under the same condition. The enhanced activity of 4A zeolite/Fe@Cu was ascribed to the synergistic effect between the 4A zeolite/Fe (core) and two-dimensional Cu hydroxide nanosheets (shell). More importantly, the copper hydroxide nanosheets with open network structure on the surface of 4A zeolite/Fe@Cu improved the stability of the Fe(III) at acidic conditions, and avoided reduced catalytic efficiency of Fe(III) caused by embedding effect. This strategy provided guidance to the design of high-performance bimetallic Fenton-like catalysts.

A series of Bi 5 O 7 I/MIL-53(Fe) (BOI/MIL- w ) composites were successfully prepared by a facile in-situ solvothermal approach. The matched energy bands enabled Bi 5 O 7 I and MIL-53(Fe) to form a Z-scheme heterojunction which resulted in an efficient separation of the photo-induced electron–hole pairs. The photocatalytic activity of BOI/MIL- w was evaluated by the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) in water under the visible light irradiation. Compared with Bi 5 O 7 I, photocatalytic performances of BOI/MIL- w notably boosted. When the content of added MIL-53(Fe) was 3 wt%, BOI/MIL-3 presented the highest activity with a degradation efficiency of 99.7% only after 60 min of irradiation. The reaction rate constant k could reach 0.0992 min −1 which was nearly 12.6 times as high as that of Bi 5 O 7 I. Moreover, BOI/MIL- w had a good stability and reusability, which could ensure its practical application. Trapping experiments confirmed that h + and ·O 2 − were the dominant active species during the photocatalytic process, and further demonstrated the formation of the Z-scheme heterojunction facilitated the photocatalytic performance of BOI/MIL- w .

A series of Fe-Zr mixed-metal oxides were prepared and examined for the simultaneous reduction of NO and SO 2 with CO. The catalyst containing 40 mol% exhibited near-complete conversion of both pollutants at a minimum temperature of 350 °C and a GHSV of 90,000 h −1 . The addition of Fe 3+ to ZrO 2 decreased the crystallinity of the latter phase and significantly enhanced surface area. Concentrations of 30 mol% or greater produced segregated FeO x phases, which affected catalytic performance in distinctly different ways: supported Fe 3+ (30 mol%) possessed similar activity to doped Fe 3+ ; α-Fe 2 O 3 (50 mol%) inhibited activity due to its’ lower reducibility; an amorphous phase (40 mol%) promoted iron-weighted areal activity. A complete identification of the ambiguous component was not successfully established, but the obtained properties revealed that it exhibited weaker interaction with the support and had a size greater than that of oligomeric-Fe 2 O 3 yet smaller than 3 nm.

Special enhanced synergistic effect of ultra-small γ-Fe 2 O 3 and graphene oxide (GO) on MIL-53 (Fe) was achieved for boosting photocatalysis. Compared to traditional methods of surface coverage, the incorporation of γ-Fe 2 O 3 (average size 2–3 nm) inside MOFs particles not only increased the light absorption of catalyst, but also formed numerous micro-heterojunctions with MOFs units and thus effectively facilitated the separation of photogenerated carriers. By supplying attachment sites for MOFs crystal, the functionalized GO reduced the size of MOFs particles to 100–200 nm, meanwhile improved their dispersibility. The active sites and quantum yield of photocatalytic reaction were also intensified benefiting from the large surface area and high electronic conductivity of GO. Therefore, the novel γ-Fe 2 O 3 -MIL-53(Fe)-GO composite exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity towards norfloxacin, with a removal rate of 92.8% in 90 min. The kinetic constant was 4.49-fold higher than that using pure MIL-53 (Fe), and 1.43-time greater than that in the system of MIL-53 (Fe) and hydrogen peroxide, which usually acted as efficient electron acceptors to increase the quantum yield and final photocatalytic performance of MOFs. Based on the identified intermediates, three NOR degradation pathways including the cleavage of piperazine ring, defluorination and decarboxylation, as well as the conversion of quinolones group were proposed. Photocatalytic mechanism investigation revealed the holes and hydroxyl radicals came from the reaction of electrons with oxygen played the important role in γ-Fe 2 O 3 -MIL-53(Fe)-GO photocatalysis. Moreover, the utilization of magnetic nanoparticles improved the recovery and recyclability of ternary catalyst.
