In this study, two counterexamples of lignin preoxidation-hydroconversion were reported. First, two lignin feedstocks were preoxidized with 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) in acetonitrile with various dosages (15%, 30%, and 60%). Then, these preoxidized lignins (HELOs and MWLOs) were hydroconverted in supercritical ethanol catalyzed by Cu/CuMgAlO x . Total yields from HELOs were all higher than those from HEL , indicating the good promotion of DDQ preoxidation on the subsequent hydroconversion of HELOs, especially with the DDQ dosage of 15%. Differently, the promotion effect of DDQ preoxidation on the hydroconversion of MWLOs depended on the DDQ dosage as well as the reaction time. Through the comparison of two counterexamples, this work bursted the myth that preoxidation can always promote the subsequent hydroconversion of lignin, revealed the influence of lignin property, preoxidation degree, and reaction conditions on the subsequent hydroconversion of preoxidized lignin, and presented the new insight into the preoxidation-hydroconversion strategy for lignin.

Kanamycin (KANA), a widely used antibiotic associated with foodborne disease, requires accurate monitoring solutions. This study presents a novel ultrasensitive electrochemical aptasensor for KANA quantification using a signal amplification method. The sensing platform was constructed with Cu/Al-MOF@Ti 3 C 2 nanocomposites as the support and incorporated aptamers specifically recognizing KANA. Among them, Cu/Al-MOF provided a high specific surface area for anchoring a large number of aptamers, Ti 3 C 2 was used to enhance the conductivity of the aptasensor, the aptamers have been used for the improvement of the sensitivity of the aptasensor, and the insertion of Cu/Al-MOF into Ti 3 C 2 sheets effectively prevents stacking between Ti 3 C 2 sheets. In the context of KANA, the specific recognition of the aptamer led to a decrease in the electrochemical signal. Under optimal conditions, the logarithm of the electrochemical output signal versus KANA concentration was linear over the range of 10 fM to 100 nM with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.74 fM. In addition, the aptasensor showed excellent accuracy and high reproducibility and has been successfully employed in actual samples, enabling the detection of a wide range of targets by simply replacing the matching aptamer.

Catalytic steam gasification is a promising route for converting plastic waste into valuable gaseous products. This work explores the heterogeneous catalytic gasification behavior of polystyrene (PS) in a two-stage fixed bed system, as well as the promotion mechanism for the generation of gaseous hydrocarbons. The obtained results indicate that adding MnCo 2 O 4 catalyst can effectively promote the formation of gaseous hydrocarbons. Further, the incorporation of Cu strengthens the above reaction process, resulting in a yield of 85.08 mmol/g for the C 1 -C 3 gaseous hydrocarbons. However, the doping of Ni has a negative effect on the generation of gaseous hydrocarbons. Moreover, an increase in the flow rate of steam within the system results in an initial rise followed by a decline in the yield of gaseous hydrocarbons. The optimal steam inflow is determined at 0.14 mL/min. The cycling test results of the catalyst show that the yield of the gaseous components of C 1 -C 3 can still be maintained at about 80 % of the initial state after five cycles. Finally, the synergistic pathway of steam and catalyst in PS gasification is elucidated. These works provide important and valuable guidance for the preparation of high-value gas-phase hydrocarbon products from waste plastics.

Sustainability issues have led to a gradual market expansion for the 1,4-butanediol (BDO) monomer of the biodegradable plastics to replace conventional plastics. Maleic anhydride (MA) can be derived from the oxidation of bio-based furfural or fructose. Although the hydrogenation of MA can produce a series of products, including succinic anhydride (SA), γ-butyrolactone (GBL), BDO and tetrahydrofuran (THF), the one-pot deep hydrogenation of MA to BDO or THF under mild conditions has been rarely reported in the literature until now. Herein, we report the production of BDO from the one-pot deep hydrogenation of MA over a Cu–0.03Mo/SiO2 catalyst, achieving 100% MA conversion and 88.3% BDO yield. The Cu–0.03Mo/SiO2 catalyst also showed good long-term stability without obvious loss in activity or BDO selectivity during a 160 h time-on-stream test. Doping Mo to Cu/SiO2 catalysts in an optimal amount adjusted the distribution of Cu0/Cu+ species and modulated the interaction of Cu–SiO2 and surface acidity, so that the activation of hydrogen, MA and relevant intermediates can become balanced, in addition to the restriction of side-reactions. This study provides potential for the green synthesis of BDO with non-precious Cu-based catalysts.

At the present time, the subject of seawater scouring and corrosion phenomena is attracting considerable attention. Accordingly, the present study involved the synthesis of CuPP materials and the preparation of Ni-Cu/CuPP coatings for deployment in marine environments characterised by elevated stress and corrosion. The results show that CuPP can effectively enhance the wear resistance and long-term corrosion resistance of Ni-Cu coatings, which is attributed to ‘fine grain strengthening’ and ‘diffusion strengthening’. Furthermore, the formation of a friction transfer film and the transformation of the wear mechanism are the primary factors contributing to the exceptional wear resistance of the Ni-Cu/CuPP composite coatings.

Due to escalating carbon emissions, increasing attention is being focused on the synthesis of biomass-derived liquid fuels with a low CO 2 footprint. Currently, the dominant biobased liquid fuel in the diesel range is green diesel, produced via deoxygenation of non-edible natural/waste oils and their free fatty acid components into engine-compatible diesel-range alkanes. Industrially, sulfided NiMo or CoMo catalysts are typically used, leading to total hydrocarbon yields of 70-80 wt%. However, their inevitable sulfur leaching often contaminates the products and requires the addition of sulfur-containing agents. Here, we developed a highly selective sulfur-free Ni-Cu alloy catalyst by disentangling the electronic and size effects, to enable green diesel synthesis through the decarbonylation of palmitic acid—the most common fatty acid in these feedstocks. An unprecedented decarbonylation product (pentadecane) yield of 98% (on a molar basis) was achieved using a Ni-Cu alloy catalyst with a Ni/Cu ratio of 1:1 under mild reaction conditions (2 MPa H 2 , 250 °C). Minimal metal sintering or leaching was observed after multiple reuses. Kinetic studies show that incorporating Cu into Ni markedly reduces both the apparent activation energy and the reaction order for the conversion of palmitic acid. These results, combined with catalyst characterization, reveal that introducing Cu into Ni not only facilitates the adsorption and activation of the carboxylic hydroxyl group to promote the reductive deoxygenation of palmitic acid into aldehyde/alcohol intermediates—the slow step in decarbonylation—but also weakens the adsorption of C–C bonds on Ni by enhancing its electron density.

In order to improve the evaporation efficiency of solar-driven interface water, Cu-Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles were synthesized in this work, and nanoparticle films with excellent light absorption properties were prepared by vacuum filtration. Benefiting from the combination of the nanoparticle film and the thermal insulation materials, nanoparticle film coupled with thermal insulation materials exhibits good evaporation performance. Effects of the type of thermal insulation materials (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate Copolymer (EVA), Polyvinyl Alcohol (PVA), Polystyrene (PS)), the superficial density of nanoparticles (0 g/m 2 , 0.4 g/m 2 , 0.8 g/m 2 and 1.2 g/m 2 ) and the radiation intensity (2 sun, 3 sun, 4 sun) on the evaporation characteristic were studied. Results descripted that when the radiation intensity of 2 sun is used, the interfacial structure composed of the nanoparticle film with a superficial density of 1.2 g/m 2 and the thermal insulation material EVA has the best evaporation performance (evaporation rate is 2.19 kg/m 2 /h, evaporation efficiency is 68.62 %, thermal efficiency is 84.68 %). Although the addition of thermal insulation material reduces the temperature rise of water, it improves the evaporation efficiency of nanoparticle film. This paper provides a solar interface evaporation method for photothermal evaporation.

The existing films used for fruit preservation suffer from insufficient preservation abilities. This study introduces Cu-tannic acid (Cu-TA) nanoparticles, synthesized from tannic acid (TA) and Cu 2+ , to enhance food packaging properties. Integrated into a chitosan-gelatin (CG) matrix, the resultant Cu-TA nanocomposite films exhibit superior antibacterial efficacy and killing rates of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus more than 99 %, and double the shelf life of strawberries, underscoring the exceptional freshness preservation capabilities of film. Additionally, the tensile strength of the Cu-TA nanocomposite films increased by 1.75 times, the DPPH radical scavenging percentage increased from 29.4 % to 68.4 %, and the water vapor permeability (WVP) decreased by about 60 % compared to the pure CG films. Comprehensive cytotoxicity and migration assessments confirm the safety of film, paving the way for their application in food packaging. The excellent performance of the Cu-TA nanocomposite films positions them as a formidable solution for protecting perishable food items.

Single photocatalysts face problems such as easy recombination of photo-generated charge carriers, weak oxidation-reduction ability, and narrow spectral response range, which greatly restrict their practical applications in energy and environmental fields. This article constructs a new type of Cu-Co Prussian blue analogues S-scheme photocatalytic material. The material is composed of oxidized photocatalysts (Ag 3 PO 4 ) and reduced photocatalysts (Cu-Co PBAs). By utilizing the characteristics of Cu-Co Prussian blue analogues photocatalysts, such as high conduction band position, rich catalytic sites, and small band gap, photocatalytic efficiency can be significantly enhanced. The CO production rate is 36.3 μmol/g/h, and the selectivity can reach 93.8 %, which is far superior to the current mainstream photocatalytic system. By studying the construction method and CO 2 reduction performance of the composite photocatalyst, the structure-performance relationship is clarified. The steady-state photocurrent spectroscopy reveals the S-scheme mechanism photocarrier transfer and separation kinetics. Techniques such as near-ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal the interface electron transfer mechanism. In-situ Diffuse Reflectance Infrared Fourier Transform Spectroscopy and Density Functional Theory calculations are used to study the formation of reaction intermediates and reveal the catalytic mechanism. This study will offer critical understanding for advancing developments of selective photocatalysts aimed at sustainable CO 2 utilization.

Various approaches have been developed to enhance n-type Cu 2 O photoelectrochemical activity. This study introduced a simple method of tuning electronic structure through adjusting solution pH when electrodeposition of Cu 2 O films on FTO substrate. Combined surface analysis showed that the Cu 2 O films presented gradual change cruciate flower-like nanostructure and hybrided with metallic copper. The Cu/Cu 2 O films presented a visible light response and the band gap could be effectively decreased by increasing the deposition solution pH. The photoelectrochemical cathodic protection performance of the films was studied. The electrode potential of 304 stainless steel by coupling with the Cu/Cu 2 O films (deposited at pH 5) reached the most negative photopotential shift of 179 mV under illumination. The related photocurrent density was 0.12 mA/cm 2 . This enhanced photoelectrochemical performance was evidenced by both direct excitation of Cu 2 O and the surface plasmon resonance effects of Cu upon illumination.

Cu particles are limited in their applications due to their susceptibility to oxidation. Here we report a cost-effective method for producing Cu particles with oxidation resistance. By heating the mixture of basic cupric carbonate and glucose powders, Cu particles coated with amorphous carbon were achieved. The amorphous carbon was then converted into graphene through flash joule heating (FJH). The conductivity of the final product was 47.1 S/cm after FJH, which remained as 42.3 S/cm even after in hot air for 30 min, i.e., 89.8% conductivity retention. The product was demonstrated for the application of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding with an average EMI shielding effectiveness of 12.3 dB and 11.7 dB before and after oxidizing treatment, respectively.

The preparation of composite carbon nanomaterials is one of the methods for improving the electrochemical performance of carbon-based electrode materials for supercapacitors. However, traditional preparation methods are complicated and time-consuming, and the binder also leads to an increase in impedance and a decrease in specific capacitance. Therefore, in this work, we reduced Ni-Cu nanoparticles on the surface of nitrogen-doped carbon nanofibers (CNFs) by employing an electrostatic spinning method combined with pre-oxidation and annealing treatments. At the same time, Ni-Cu nanoparticles were vulcanized to Ni–Cu–S nanoparticles without destroying the structure of the CNFs. The area-specific capacitance of the CNFs/Ni–Cu–S–300 electrode reaches 1208 mF cm−2at a current density of 1 mA cm−2, and the electrode has a good cycling stability with a capacitance retention rate of 76.5% after 5000 cycles. As a self-supporting electrode, this electrode can avoid the problem of the poor adhesion of electrode materials and the low utilization of active materials due to the inactivity of the binder and conductive agent in conventional collector electrodes, so it has excellent potential for application.
