The electronic nose aims to emulate the olfactory capabilities of osmatic animals, utilizing olfactory sensing array with different sensing characteristics to perceive odors. However, the separate precursors and preparation methods of sensing materials pose challenges in the fabrication of an olfactory sensing array. In this work, the customization of the surface crystal phase of Sr─Fe─O materials (SFO) is demonstrated through the control of annealing temperature, enabling the simple fabrication of an olfactory sensing array using a single precursor. Significantly, the SFO materials exhibit diverse proportions of surface crystal phases, showcasing varied selective characteristics toward volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The materials also demonstrate remarkable responsiveness, linearity, and response/recovery times. Furthermore, this study unraveles the intricate gas-sensor mechanism through first principle calculations, revealing that Fe spin-down d band center of Sr 3 Fe 2 O 7 , located near the Fermi level, significantly enhances the binding strength of intermediates, leading to a higher response specifically to certain VOCs. Integrating these materials into a unified device, the sensor array quantitatively and discriminatively detected different VOCs. The results indicate that SFO materials hold tremendous potential as a promising and easily manufacturable olfactory material system.

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are important sources of air pollution complex in China and exist as mixtures of different-sized components in industrial exhaust gases. Activated carbon is a type of widely-used adsorbent for VOCs removal, but faced with poor VOCs co-adsorption performance due to competitive adsorption. Herein, an efficient strategy of constructing hierarchical pore configuration was proposed to alleviate competitive adsorption of VOCs with different kinetic diameters and further enhance co-adsorption capacity. The role of hierarchical pore configuration in co-adsorption of typical VOCs toluene and dichloromethane was revealed based on coal-based porous carbon with tunable pore hierarchy. Dynamic adsorption experiments show that micropore-dominant carbon, adsorption capacities of toluene and dichloromethane under co-adsorption dramatically decreased by 14 % and 42 % respectively compared to single component adsorption. However, the loss of adsorption capacity within the hierarchical porous carbon was only 9 % and 14 % under the same conditions. Correlation analyses and molecular dynamics simulations showed that hierarchical porous carbon could induce unique adsorption behavior in which toluene tends to be stored in mesopore and dichloromethane is mainly distributed in micropore, thus effectively reducing the competitive adsorption. Guided by the found mechanism, we further prepared hierarchical porous carbon with high specific surface area and pore volume, based on which adsorption capacity of toluene and dichloromethane under co-adsorption condition was enhanced by more than 50 % compared to micropore-dominant carbon. The relevant mechanism provides a theoretical basis for advancing the optimization of co-adsorption process of mixed VOCs.

A novel mechano-chemical strategy using dopamine to modify UiO-66(Zr) by N-coordination was proposed to enhance its competitive adsorption for acetaldehyde, chlorobenzene/H 2 O, both thermodynamically and kinetically. The newly synthesized material was characterized by SEM, EDX, XPS, PXRD, FT-IR, TGA/DTG and BET techniques. Results showed that N was successfully grafted into UiO-66(Zr) frameworks through coordination interaction with Zr-O clusters resulting in M-UiO-66(Zr-N 3.0 ). The obtained M-UiO-66(Zr-N 3.0 ) exhibited a significant increase in adsorption of chlorobenzene (4.94 mmol/g) and acetaldehyde (9.42 mmol/g) compared to parent UiO-66(Zr) and UiO-66(Zr)-NH 2 . The H 2 O adsorption uptake of M-UiO-66(Zr-N 3.0 ) decreased by 20% that of UiO-66(Zr) and 47% of UiO-66(Zr)-NH 2 indicating higher hydrophobicity of the modified material. Kinetic performance indicated that diffusivity of chlorobenzene on M-UiO-66(Zr-N 3.0 ) was about 7.8 and 40 times higher than that of the parent UiO-66(Zr) and UiO-66(Zr)-NH 2 respectively and 15.4 times higher than that of H 2 O on itself. Based on the results, the current N-modification strategy can be deemed as an efficient way to improve MOFs competitive adsorption towards VOCs under humid conditions and it might play active role in industries involving adsorbent applications.

Soybean meal, a by-product of soybean oil production, exhibits poor water resistance and is highly susceptible to mold, which are significant limitations hindering its large-scale industrial application. Inspired by the phenolic-amine chemistry, a fully bio-based soy protein wood adhesive was engineered to achieve excellent water resistance and environmental benefits. The process starts with oxidation of alkaline lignin using sodium periodate (NaIO 4 ) to generate aldehyde/quinone functionality on the expense of some aliphatic/phenolic hydroxyl groups, for promoting its subsequent interaction with soy protein to yield target adhesive by Schiff-base formation and Michael addition reaction. Importantly, residual NaIO 4 was meticulously removed to minimize its impact on the bonded substrate, the cross-linked network, and the environment, as it does not participate in the construction of the cross-linked architecture. The results showed that the dry and wet shear strength of SM-OL1.5 increased by 51.2 % and 80.8 % to 1.83 MPa and 0.94 MPa compared with SM adhesives, surpassing the China National Standard (GB/T 9846–2015, ≥0.7 MPa). Interestingly, the developed adhesive formulation exhibited mildew resistance, which can be attributed to the inherent feature of lignin to disrupt cell membranes and alter permeability, leading to cell lysis. Furthermore, the hybridized adhesive showcased minimal environmental impact, low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions, and full compliance with global sustainability initiatives, making it a promising candidate for eco-friendly wood adhesive applications.

The non-thermal plasma catalysis holds great promise for VOCs removal, and the development of catalysts with electronic metal-support interaction (EMSI) effect is beneficial for VOCs removal. In this study, we prepared three Mn@M catalysts with EMSI coordination structures by encapsulating MnO x particles within the mesoporous molecular sieve (MCM-41) with different pore size (2.9 nm, 4.4 nm, and 7.9 nm), and investigated the effect of pore size on EMSI and non-thermal plasma catalytic performance of Mn@M for toluene. Among three catalysts, Mn@M2 with an average pore size of 4.38 nm exhibited the strongest EMSI and superior redox capabilities, thus demonstrating the highest mineralization rate, carbon balance, and CO 2 selectivity for plasma catalytic oxidation of toluene. The EMSI effect leads to the formation of electron-rich and electron-poor centers on the Si-O-Mn-O bond, facilitating the generation of reactive oxygen species and enhancing the oxygen cycle. In addition, the reaction degradation pathway was investigated using in situ DRIFTS and GC–MS. This study provides valuable insights for designing highly effective supported catalysts by pore confinement to degrade VOCs in adsorption-plasma catalysis system.

This study addresses the identification and comparison of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in different peony varieties to elucidate their distinct aroma profiles and the common VOCs that constitute the unique fragrance of peony flowers, laying a foundation for breeding high-quality peony varieties and developing related products. Headspace gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS) combined with principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was employed to analyze and differentiate the VOCs of eight peony varieties: TAOXI, ZIHELIAN, BAITIANE, YAOHUANG, DAFUGUI, DAOJIN, HONGXIUQIU, and MANAOPAN. The study identified 87 VOCs, revealing significant differences in VOC compositions among the samples. Notably, BAITIANE displayed distinct differences in both color and VOC composition compared to the other seven varieties. It exhibited uniquely high levels of butanoic acid-M, butanoic acid-D, hexanal-D, ethanol-D, and ethyl acetate. Twelve key differential VOCs were identified as having significant impacts: ethanol-D, hexanal-D, (e)-2-hexenal-D, (e)-2-hexenal-M, hexanal-M, butanoic acid-M, acetic acid-D, acetic acid-M, butanoic acid-D, ethyl acetate, thiophene, and dimethyl sulfide. KEGG pathway analysis highlighted the roles of xenobiotics biodegradation, terpenoid metabolism, and amino acid metabolism in VOC biosynthesis. The findings are significant for the breeding of fragrant peony varieties and the development of floral-based products. The findings provide theoretical support for breeding new horticultural flower varieties and developing commercial peony products, enhancing the understanding of floral scent chemistry, and offering valuable information for the perfumery, floral food processing, and related industries.

In the present study, we evaluated the physicochemical and microbial properties, microbial diversity, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of Jinhua ham prepared using Taihu black pigs during a ripening period of 210 days. During the eight timepoints, the protein oxidation, proteolysis indexes, and TBARS values of Jinhua ham had different change trends. The growth of total bacteria and total Staphylococcus showed a decline, while the growth trend of total fungi was parabolic. Staphylococcus equorum was the dominant bacterial species, and the relative abundance were 19.3% (day 180)-76.7% (day 120). Debaryomyces hansenii and Eurotium sp. were the dominant fungus species, with opposite change trends. GC–IMS analysis detected 84 volatile compounds, with alcohols and aldehydes being the dominant volatile compounds in the late ripening period. The correlation analysis between microbial diversity and VOCs showed that Staphylococcus equorum was significantly negatively correlated with eight VOCs, while Debaryomyces hansenii and Eurotium sp. were significantly correlated with 31 and 29 VOCs respectively. Our findings reveal the quality, microbial diversity at species level, volatile compound characteristics, and relationship between microbial communities and flavor formation of Jinhua ham prepared using Taihu black pigs.

Applying polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) monolith for phosphates removal can improve the operability of the adsorption process compared with some other powder nanomaterials. However, as the commonly used synthesis strategy, non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) was deemed not environmentally friendly enough since the dissolution of PVDF often involved volatile organic compounds (VOCs). This article designed a salt sacrificial template method to fabricate a 3D porous PVDF monolith, and then in-situ growth of lamellar La(OH) 3 on the PVDF foam was realized to enhance the adsorption affinity to phosphates pollution. No VOCs were used or released during the whole synthesis process. The adsorption for phosphates was as high as 56.2 mg g −1 , and easy reusability of the novel PVDF monolith was realized. In addition, this PVDF-La(OH) 3 foam exhibited good adsorption properties in both oil and water environments, which implied it could not only adsorb phosphates in actual water samples but also separate oil contaminants from water. All these implied that this PVDF-La(OH) 3 foam could be a potential candidate for large-scale industrial adsorption and separation of phosphates. This PVDF-La(OH) 3 foam could be a potential candidate for large-scale industrial adsorption and separation of phosphates.

To enhance the aroma complexity and commercial potential of Chinese black truffle (Tuber indicum), enzymatic hydrolyzates (EH) were subjected to Maillard reaction (MR) with xylose/cysteine under varying temperatures (90–130 °C). Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in MR products (MRPs) were characterized using an E-nose, HS-SPME-GC-MS, and HS-GC-IMS coupled with chemometrics (PCA, OPLS-DA). MR significantly increased VOC diversity (216 compounds identified vs 82 in EH), with sulfur-containing compounds and heterocyclics emerging exclusively in MRPs. Temperature critically influenced VOC profiles: 130 °C (MRPs130) yielded the highest VOC abundance and key odorants, as confirmed by the odor activity value (OAV) analysis. Sankey diagrams visualized a flavor shift from mushroom/earthy notes in EH to enhanced fruity, green, and roasted nuances in MRPs130. This strategy effectively improves the Chinese truffle aroma, offering theoretical and practical insights for value-added processing.

Tobacco is an agricultural commodity with great economic significance. Producers recognize that the flavor characteristics of filler tobacco clear-out (FTLs) affect the quality of cigar tobacco items. To identify the major volatile organic compounds (VOCs) responsible for differences in FTLs, E-nose, HS-SPME-GC–MS, and HS-GC-IMS were employed for multi-dimensional analysis of nine groups of FTLs at various fermentation stages. The E-nose results indicated a progressive increase in nitrogen-oxygen compounds during fermentation. Coupled with these findings, HS-SPME-GC–MS identified 56 VOCs, and HS-GC-IMS revealed 55 VOCs in the FTLs. Principal component analysis (PCA) suggested that FTLs from various fermentation stages of the Yunxue No 39 tobacco plant exhibit significant differences. Partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), along with the variable importance in projection (VIP) method for feature selection, pinpointed 12 VOCs as the essential unmistakable metabolites embroiled within the agrarian fermenting prepare of matured FTLs. During the fermentation process, these crucial metabolites are predominantly enriched in pathways including pyruvate metabolism, phenylalanine metabolism, as well as nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism. The study provides insights into the differences and diversity of FTLs at agricultural fermentation stages. It offers valuable information for optimizing the quality of agricultural fermentation and guiding the directional fermentation of tobacco leaves.
