Economical elimination of organic pollutants from waste water has be paid more attention owing to its environmental and ecological significance. In this study, an easily achievable process to in-situ fabricate copper and co-modified Z-scheme BiOCl/Bi 2 O 3 heterojunction was proposed. The study on the formation mechanism indicated that the introduction of copper ions is favorable for the formation of Bi-based catalyst with flaky morphology while the addition C-dots makes the nanosheets loosely be packed and intercrossed each other. The composite exhibited a high degradation efficiency for Bisphenol A (BPA) and 91% of BPA was removal within 35 min under xenon lamp irradiation. The excellent photocatalytic performance was attributed to the synergistic effect of the in-situ formation Z-scheme BiOCl/β-Bi 2 O 3 heterojunction, multiple charge transfer channels including Cu 2+ /Cu + and C-dots, and efficient charge separation. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis and quenching tests revealed that O 2 •− play a main role in degradation of BPA. Based on the experimental results, the photo-catalytic mechanism is proposed and the degradation path of BPA is revealed.

In this study, four types of commercial tabular corundum were selected as aggregates, and four Al 2 O 3 –SiC–C castables were prepared under same conditions. The microstructure characteristics of the aggregates were observed. The thermal shock resistance and slag resistance mechanism were evaluated. Dendritic pores were proven to be beneficial for relieving and guiding thermal stress. According to the Lobe method, the dendritic pores provided the aggregates with a higher thermal conductivity and better thermal stability than the circular pores. The role of the aggregate microstructure in resisting slag erosion was discussed through thermodynamic and kinetic analyses. The presence of dendritic pores and a small neck size led to a faster dissolution rate during the slag erosion process. At the same time, the dissolution rate and dissolution amount increased, resulting in the faster supersaturation of the slag. Based on Ostwald's supersaturation theory, a thicker spinel isolation layer would be precipitated on the inner walls of the slag erosion path, thereby preventing the further erosion of the slag.

A catalyst with multi-metal introduction and a hollow structure is very promising for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation. In this study, Ce doped hollow bimetallic sulfide carbon composite (CoCeS/C) were fabricated from three dimensional layered double hydroxides (LDHs), which was synthesized via metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) self-sacrificial template strategy. The as-synthesised composite was applied to the catalytic degradation of ofloxacin (OFX) and the result indicated that the reaction rate constant (k 2 ) of Ce doped CoCeS/C (18.539 mmol −1 ·L·min −1 ) was about 5.7 times higher than CoS/C (3.230 mmol −1 ·L·min −1 ) which was without Ce doping. Singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) and SO 4 - • were verified as the dominant reactive oxygen species (ROS) responsible for OFX via quenching tests and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscope (EPR). The catalyst kept high removal efficiency over the pH range of 3.0–11.0. In addition, the catalyst still showed good reusability after four runs, as well as strong resistance to versatile inorganic ions and background organic matters in the oxidative treatment of OFX. Finally, degradation pathways were proposed by analyzing the degradation intermediates. These results revealed that the designed CoCeS/C catalyst exhibits wide promising application prospects for the degradation of organic residues in environmental remediation.

At present, Ru dopants mainly enhance electrocatalytic performance by inducing strain, vacancy, local electron difference, and synergy. Surprisingly, this work innovatively proposes that trace Ru atoms induce dual-reconstruction of phosphide by regulating the electronic configuration and proportion of Co-P/Co-O species, and ultimately activate superb electrocatalytic performance. Specifically, Ru-CoFeP@C/nickel foam (NF) is reconstructed to generate hydrophilic Co(OH) 2 nanosheets during the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) process, further accelerating the alkaline HER kinetics of phosphide. And the as-formed CoOOH during the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) process directly accelerates the oxygen overflow efficiency. As expected, the overpotential at 100 mA·cm −2 ( η 100 ) values of the reconstructed Ru-CoFeP@C/NF are 0.104 and 0.257 V for HER and OER, which are greatly lower than that of Pt/C-NF and RuO 2 -NF benchmarks, respectively. This work provides guidance for the construction of high-performance catalysts for HER and OER dual reconstruction. This work provides a new idea for the optimization of catalyst structure and electrocatalytic performance.

Graphical C@TiO 2-x photocatalyst with oxygen vacancy and carbon doping co-structure prepared by heat treatment is reported. It provides the possibility of regulating semiconductor photocatalysts to degrade pollutants in wastewater based on an integrated strategy. Oxygen Vacancy (OVs) and carbon doping of the photocatalyst body will significantly enhance the photocatalytic efficiency. However, synchronous regulation of these two aspects is challenging. In this paper, a novel C@TiO 2-x photocatalyst was designed by coupling the surface defect and doping engineering of titania, which can effectively remove rhodamine B (RhB) and has a relatively high performance with wide pH range, high photocatalytic activity and good stability. Within 90 minutes, the photocatalytic degradation rate of RhB by C@TiO 2-x (94.1 % at 20 mg/L) is 28 times higher than that of pure TiO 2 . Free radical trapping experiments and electron spin resonance techniques reveal that superoxide radicals (⋅O 2− ) and photogenerated holes (h + ) play key roles in the photocatalytic degradation of RhB. This study demonstrates the possibility of regulating photocatalysts to degrade pollutants in wastewater based on an integrated strategy.

The development of electrocatalysts for efficient water splitting is a pivotal and challenging task. Transition-metal phosphides (TMPs) have been known as one of the most promising candidates for the efficient hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) due to their favorable intrinsic reactivity. However, structural engineering related to the gas bubbles evolution and tiny regulation of components concerned with the electronic structure remained as a significant challenge that requires further optimization. Herein, the nanoarrays (NAs) composed of ultrasmall Co2P and CoP nanoparticle-embedded N-doped carbon matrix (Co2P&CoP@N–C) are prepared and demonstrated an overpotential of 62.8 ± 4.7 mV at 10 mA cm–2 in 1.0 M KOH. The nanoarray-structured electrocatalyst revealed the superaerophobicity and facilitates the detachment of the in situ formed hydrogen gas bubbles, ensuring abundant catalytic sites and electrode–electrolyte interface for the mass transfer process. The amount of P doping modulated the local electron density around Co and P atoms, which attains a favorable compromise to afford sufficient electrons for the electrocatalysis and inhibit the negative influence of H2 desorption. Significantly, the lowered overpotential induced by the electrocatalyst surface architecture is much stronger than that of the component content and promotes the electrocatalytic activity.

Sodium (Na) metal anode has been considered as the promising candidate for next generation high-energy-density rechargeable batteries such as Na-S, Na-O 2 and Na-CO 2 , owing to its high specific capacity, low electrode potential and low cost. Unfortunately, some intractable problems hinder the practical application, including volume change and dendrite formation induced by inhomogeneous Na nucleation. Herein, 3D carbon cloth (CC) supporting Bi-MOF derived carbon nanosheets containing Bi nanoparticles and carbon shells (CC@Bi@C) were prepared to serve as Na deposition/dissolution hosts, integrating high surface area and favorable sodiophilicity. Due to the existence of Bi sodiophilic sites, Na nucleation and deposition can be induced, rendering uniform and dendrite-free morphology. Moreover, the 3D carbon framework can effectively reduce the current density and uniform distribution of Na + flux, solving the uncontrolled Na dendrite growth. As a result, the CC@Bi@C||Na half cell operating at 1 mA cm −2 for 1 mA h cm −2 exhibits 99.85% Coulombic efficiency for nearly 500 cycles. The symmetric cell maintains stable cycle for more than 300 h at 2 mA cm −2 for 2 mA h cm −2 with low overpotential. When paired a full cell with Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 cathode, CC@Bi@C anode exhibits a stable capacity of 103.4 mA h g −1 at 1C (1 C = 117 mA h g −1 ) over 150 cycles for 95.5% capacity retention with high CE of 99.0%. This work provides a facile strategy to inhibit dendrite growth and uniform Na deposition.

In this study, the S modified iron-based catalyst (S-Fe@C) for activating peroxydisulfate (PDS) was fabricated by heating the S-MIL-101 (Fe) precursor at 800 °C. The resulted S-Fe@C composite mainly consisted of carbon, Fe 0 , FeS, FeS 2 , and Fe 3 O 4 , and showed strong magnetism. Compared with Fe@C obtained from MIL-101 (Fe), the S-Fe@C exhibited much higher performance (1.5 times larger) on PDS activation and the S-Fe@C/PDS could rapidly degrade various organic pollutants in 5 min under the attack of the species of SO 4 - · , 1 O 2 , electro-transfer and Fe(IV). The S element in enhancing the PDS activation mainly involved two mechanisms. Firstly, the doped S could speed up the electron transfer efficiency, resulting in a promotion on PDS decomposition; secondly, the S 2- S 2 2- or S 0 could achieve the circulation of Fe 2+ and Fe 3+ , leading to the formation of non-radicals Fe(IV) and 1 O 2 .

Preparation of high-performance composites photocatalysts for organic pollutants degradation is of great significance. In this work, elemental doping was employed to realize the visible-light harvesting and visible-light photocatalysis of the (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 mesocrystals following by introduction of CdS quantum dots (QDs) into layered and poriferous (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 nanosheets for fabrication of S-scheme charge transfer pathways. In this work, the higher temperatures treatment induced the successful transformation of (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 nanosheets from Ta 3 AlC 4 MAX. The experimental results also revealed that CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 composites showed highly enhanced visible-light absorption and visible-light photocatalytic tetracycline degradation performance. The optimal photocatalytic reaction rate constant of the CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 -30% composite reached as high as 0.1117 min −1 , which was approximately 27.24 times of the (Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 nanosheets and 2.43 times of CdS QDs , far better than those of commercial Ta 2 O 5 and pristine Ta 3 AlC 4 . Meanwhile, the prepared CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 composites were also employed for efficient photodegradation of norfloxacin. Besides, the effects of various experimental parameters, reactive species determination, and band structures were also investigated. The improved visible-light photocatalytic performance of the CdS QDs/(Al,C)-Ta 2 O 5 composites was mainly attributed to fabrication of S-scheme charge transfer pathways for efficient charge separation.

Conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs) are cost-effective photocatalysts in organic transformations, while they are usually limited by the insufficient separation of photogenerated charges. Here we report a polarization strategy through molecular geometry optimization to promote the charge separation of CMPs. Three CMP photocatalysts with an alternative donor–acceptor skeleton and tunable symmetry were synthesized by the oxidative coupling of bis-carbazoles with electron-deficient bridges (benzene/pyridine/pyrimidine). Simply regulating the polarization of the starting monomers leads to tailorable porosity, photoelectric properties, and photocatalytic activity of the CMPs. They exhibited high efficiency in C-3 selenocyanation of indoles under visible-light and at room temperature, and pyridine-based CMPs with the largest dipole moment gave a yield of up to 94%, superior to their state-of-the-art photocatalyst counterparts. Photo-physical experiments combined with theoretical calculations further supported that the incorporation of the polarized linker introduced an internal electric field, benefitting efficient charge separation. This offered new insight into developing high-performance photocatalysts.

s Ti-based PbO 2 electrodes must currently address the high overpotential and low corrosiveness of the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) during zinc electrowinning. In this study, a composite electrode composed of Ti/TiH 2 /β-PbO 2 − Mn 3 O 4 @C (0.6 g L –1 ) was fabricated using Ti/TiH 2 generated by electrochemical reduction of Ti/TiO 2 prepared by laser ablation as an intermediate layer, co-deposited β-PbO 2 , and Mn 3 O 4 @C micro-flakes prepared by high-temperature pyrolysis-oxidation as the active layer. In a zinc electrowinning test solution (50 g L –1 ZnSO 4 mixed with 150 g L –1 H 2 SO 4 ), the oxygen evolution and corrosion behavior of the obtained Ti/TiH 2 /β-PbO 2 − Mn 3 O 4 @C composite anodes were systematically investigated. Ti/TiH 2 /β-PbO 2 − Mn 3 O 4 @C (0.6 g L –1 ) exhibited a low overpotential of 493 mV, a low Tafel slope of 73.6 mV dec −1 , a low i corr of 2.320 × 10 −5 A cm −2 and voltage stability of 1.65 V vs. RHE for up to 72 h in stability tests, with an overall performance outperformed most of the reported Ti-based PbO 2 electrode materials. The outstanding catalytic activity is primarily attributable to the low resistance and porous interlayer of TiH 2 nanosheets, which speeds up the rate of electron transfer. The addition of Mn 3 O 4 @C micro-flakes to the active layer enhances the composite electrode's OER performance and corrosion resistance.
