CeO2 with three different morphologies of nanorods (CeO2-r), particles (CeO2-p), and cubes (CeO2-c) was prepared, and the guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation over their corresponding Co-based catalysts was performed at 160–220 °C, 2 MPa, a H2 flow rate of 80 mL/min, and a weight hourly space velocity of 0.7 h–1. Compared with Co/CeO2-p and Co/CeO2-c, Co/CeO2-r has smaller Co particle sizes, a higher Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area, and larger amount of Co active centers, oxygen vacancies, and weak acid sites. These better physicochemical properties for Co/CeO2-r provide more Co active sites for guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation, favor the adsorption and activation of guaiacol, and contribute to the cleavage of C–O. Therefore, Co/CeO2-r presents a maximum guaiacol conversion of 97.1% and the highest yield of cyclohexanol of 91.7% among these catalysts. The result shows that the shape structure of CeO2 has an important influence on the guaiacol hydrodeoxygenation performance over its corresponding catalysts.

Zeolitic-imidazolate framework precursors (ZIF-67) were synthesized in an inorganic solution with triethylamine as a deprotonating agent for N2O decomposition, and the catalytic activities of the pyrolysis products under different conditions were investigated. Among them, the Co/CoOx@carbon catalyst pyrolyzed at 650 °C in a N2 atmosphere (Co-650N) exhibited excellent low-temperature catalytic activity and stability, achieving 50% decomposition efficiency at 305 °C and ∼100% at 400 °C, which benefitted from its large specific surface area, great reduction performance, abundant cobalt active sites, and surface oxygen species. Further, utilizing temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and in situ diffused reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) results, it was found that N2O molecules preferentially combined with oxygen species bound to cobalt sites. The absorbed N2O was decomposed into N2 and oxygen species, and the latter was subsequently transferred to carbon frameworks. Interestingly, the amorphous graphitic carbon frameworks played an important role in transferring/storing active oxygen and regenerating cobalt sites. Moreover, Co-650N exhibited better resistance to SO2, and the efficiency could be recovered via heating and finally stabilized at 100%. Finally, the mechanisms of N2O decomposition and sulfur poisoning-reactivation on Co/CoOx@carbon catalysts were proposed for the first time.

In this paper, a series of Fe- and Co-doped lanthanum (hydr)oxides catalysts were prepared by a simple coprecipitation-hydrothermal method. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized with various techniques including powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), N 2 adsorption/desorption, inductively coupled plasma (ICP) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The Fe-based catalysts exhibited consecutive phase changes of amorphous FeO x →FeLaO 3 →Fe 2 N under different stages (as-prepared→calcination→ammonia decomposition reaction); as for Co-based catalysts, the phase transformation followed a sequence of Co(OH) 2 → Co 3 O 4 →metallic Co. It was revealed that Fe 2 N and metallic Co were most probably the active crystalline phase respectively for Fe- and Co-based catalysts in the decomposition of ammonia.

Hydrogenation of γ-valerolactone (GVL) to form 1,4-pentanediol (1,4-PDO) was performed over Co/ZrO2 catalysts with a Co metal loading of 15 wt. %. The calcination of Co/ZrO2 at high temperatures significantly promoted the catalytic activity irrespective of the decrease in the specific surface area. The 750 °C-calcined Co/ZrO2 with Co2+ species exhibited a high catalytic performance: a GVL conversion of 86.1% with a 1,4-PDO selectivity of 97.2% was achieved at 165 °C under 5 MPa H2 pressure.

A novel magnetic surface vulcanized cobalt-iron aerogel (CoFe-S MA) with a self-supporting, crosslinked bimetallic nanowire structure was fabricated via NaBH 4 -mediated gelation followed by in-situ vulcanization with Na 2 S solution, which showed efficient sulfadiazine (SDZ) degradation through peroxodisulfate (PDS) activation. The optimized CoFe-0.2S aerogels exhibited the best degradation performance (99.8%) for SDZ (10 mg/L, 100 mL) within 15 min, and the total organic carbon (TOC) removal efficiency reached 53%. The excellent degradation performance was attributed to the accelerated redox process and rapid formation of sulfate radical (SO 4 ·- ) caused by bimetal synergistic effect, as well as the sufficient exposed active sites provided by the self-supporting hierarchical porous structure of the aerogel. Compared with CoFe-MAs, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) demonstrated lower resistance and more rapid charge transfer of CoFe-S MAs, which was ascribed to the presence of delocalized electrons in iron sulfides layer. A high turnover frequency (TOF) of 4.0 L∙min −1 ∙g −1 was achieved due to that the reduction effect of S 2- on the surface promoted the regeneration of Fe and Co active species. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and quenching experiments revealed the dominant reactive oxide species (ROS) to be SO 4 ·- , ‧OH, and Fe (Ⅳ). This work paves the way for the application of metal aerogels in the field of advanced oxidation process based on sulfate radical (AR-AOPs).

The investigation into viable but non-culturable (VBNC) bacteria through the implementation of resuscitation promoting factors (Rpfs) has broadened the potential sources for isolating strains capable of degrading polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs). Nonetheless, there has been limited research on the efficacy of resuscitated strains and the potential improvement of their performance through co-cultivation. In this work, the PCB degradation potential of resuscitated strains, specifically Pseudomonas sp. HR1 and Achromobacter sp. HR2, as well as their co-cultures, was investigated. Of particular importance was the comparative analysis between the optimal co-culture and individual strains regarding their ability to degrade PCB homologs and mineralize intermediate metabolites. The results suggested that the resuscitated strains HR1 and HR2 demonstrated robust growth and effective degradation of Aroclor 1242. The co-culture CO13, with an optimal HR1 to HR2 ratio of 1:3, exhibited a remarkable improvement in PCB degradation and intermediate metabolite mineralization compared to individual strains. Analysis of functional genes and degradation metabolites revealed that both the individual strains and co-culture CO13 degraded PCBs via the HOPDA-benzoate pathway, then mineralized through protocatechuate meta - and ortho -cleavage pathways, as well as the catechol ortho -cleavage pathway. This study represents the first documentation of the improved PCB degradation through the co-cultivation of resuscitated strains, which highlights the great promise of these resuscitated strains and their co-cultures as effective bio-inoculants for enhanced bioremediation.

(Gd 1− x Nd x ) 2 (Zr 1− x Ce x ) 2 O 7 (0≤ x ≤1.0) ceramics were synthesized to investigate the co-doping effects on the phase evolution and chemical durability of Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 based nuclear waste forms. The phase structures of these solid solutions were identified by X-ray diffraction and their chemical durability was evaluated by static leach test (Materials Characterization Center, MCC-1). The results show that the Gd 2 Zr 2 O 7 ceramic adopts a pyrochlore structure while the co-doped (Gd 1− x Nd x ) 2 (Zr 1− x Ce x ) 2 O 7 (0.2≤ x ≤1.0) compositions exhibit a defect fluorite structure. Moreover, the normalized release rates of each element in (Gd 1− x Nd x ) 2 (Zr 1− x Ce x ) 2 O 7 (0≤ x ≤1.0) waste forms increase with the growing temperature and converge to constant values with enhanced leaching time. In the discussed time range (42 days), all the considered elements show a normalized release rate lower than 10 −4 g m −2 d −1 . Gd shows the highest normalized release rate of all the involved elements, while Zr shows the best chemical durability.

In this paper, sulfonated nitrogen sulfur co-doped graphene (S-NS-GR) nanocomposite , i.e., nitrogen sulfur co-doped graphene functionalized with SO 3 H group as a novel catalyst support material was prepared. Pt Pd nanoparticles (Pt Pd NPs) were deposited on the surface of S-NS-GR by a facile electrochemical approach. The morphology and structure of Pd-PtNPs/S-NS-GR were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), respectively. In addition, the electrocatalytic performance of catalyst for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) was systematically studied by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry in alkaline media . Compared with Pt Pd NPs supported on nitrogen sulfur co-doped graphene (Pt-PdNPs/NS-GR), the excellent performance of Pd-PtNPs/S-NS-GR is mainly ascribed to the embedding of abundant functional groups ( SO 3 H) into the NS-GR layers, which not only facilitate the homogeneous distribution of metal NPs , but also strengthen the interaction between metals and support material, thus improve the stability of catalyst in MOR.

Elemental engineering has been employed to adjust molecular framework and electronic configuration of γ-graphyne for rapid lithium storage. Here, we construct a quasi-pyridinic nitrogen/sulfur co-doped γ-graphyne (N/S-GY) via a mechanochemical strategy and reveal its lithium storage behavior by quantitative kinetics analysis and theoretical calculations. The internal pyridinic-N atoms create rhombic channels for Li + passing through, while sulfur dopants anchored with alkynyl groups induce electron cloud rearrangement to facilitate intralayer Li + diffuse between C 12 -triangular channels and interlayer transfer through open rhombic channels. As a result, the as-prepared N/S-GY exhibits a high reversible capacity of 1003 mAh g −1 at 50 mA g −1 after 150 cycles, with Li + diffusion coefficient up to 2.6 × 10 −12 cm 2 s −1 , both of which are larger than that of N-doped γ-graphyne. This work highlights synergistic effect of sulfur and nitrogen co-doping in alkynyl carbon and inspires bottom-up heteroatom modification in framework design.

What is essential to solving energy scarcity problems is that develop the high activity, durable and non-noble metal-based dual-functional electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) and oxygen evolution reactions (OER). In this work, a series of core-shell structure M@Fe–Cu-GR nanocubes (NCs) are prepared. In the prepared process, the bimetallic FeCu prussian blue analogues (PBA) is used as precursor, transition metals ions Co 2+ and Ni 2+ are introduced into the FeCu-PBA using the exchange of potassium ions with other metal ions , and then the FeCu-PBA are successfully loaded on the graphene oxide (GO) employed the attraction of opposite charges between polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDDA) and GO. Electrochemical tests show that the Tafel slope of Co–Ni@Fe–Cu–GR NCs for HER and OER are 60 and 82 mV dec −1 , respectively, and Co–Ni@Fe–Cu–GR NCs shows excellent performance in long-term stability test.

A spatially separated, dual co-catalyst photocatalytic system was constructed by the stepwise introduction of RuO2 and Au nanoparticles (NPs) at the internal and external surfaces of a three dimensional, hierarchically ordered TiO2−SiO2 (HTSO) framework (the final photocatalyst was denoted as Au/HRTSO). Characterization by HR-TEM, EDS-mapping, XRD and XPS confirmed the existence and spatially separated locations of Au and RuO2. In CO2 photocatalytic reduction (CO2PR), Au/HRTSO (0.8%) shows the optimal performance in both the activity and selectivity towards CH4; the CH4 yield is almost twice that of the singular Au/HTSO or HRTSO (0.8%, weight percentage of RuO2) counterparts. Generally, Au NPs at the external surface act as electron trapping agents and RuO2 NPs at the inner surface act as hole collectors. This advanced spatial configuration could promote charge separation and transfer efficiency, leading to enhanced CO2PR performance in both the yield and selectivity toward CH4 under simulated solar light irradiation.

Herein, a novel nanocomposite organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) membrane has been facilely fabricated by a highly-efficient one-step co-deposition of mussel-inspired catechol and octaammonium polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS-NH 3 + Cl - ) onto supports. The basic properties and morphologies of the co-deposited nanocomposite membranes were investigated with various physicochemical characterizations in detail. Attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectra proved the present of POSS nanoparticles on membrane surface . X-ray photoelectron (XPS) results suggested the optimal ratio of POSS-NH 3 + Cl - and catechol for co-deposition. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) images demonstrated the formation of a layer on support surface. The optimized nanocomposite membrane exhibited an ethanol (EtOH) permeance of 1.26 L m −2 h −1 bar −1 with a rejection of 99% to Rose Bengal (RB). The novel membrane also exhibited remarkable separation performance for dyes removal from a wide range of solvents including challenging polar aprotic and strongly swelling solvents . Particularly, the nanocomposite membrane demonstrated stable performances during a two-day long term test in DMF for RB concentration. In addition to providing a highly-efficient way to high-performance OSN membrane, this work may stimulate the bio-inspired design of advanced nanocomposite membranes for environmental applications.
