Ammonia is a crucial chemical and carbon-free energy carrier, but its industrial synthesis via the Haber–Bosch process requires harsh conditions and fossil-derived hydrogen. Alternative strategies are needed to achieve sustainable ammonia production under moderate conditions. H 2 O-based chemical looping ammonia synthesis (H 2 O-CLAS) enables hydrogen-free operation and decouples N 2 and H 2 O activation from scaling constraints, but remains hindered by high energy demand, inferior catalyst stability, and intrinsically challenging activation of N 2 and H 2 O. Here we demonstrate Co-doped LaMnO 3 as a durable and efficient H 2 O-CLAS catalyst, where nitrogen fixation occurs at 1000 °C and ammonia release proceeds at 600 °C under atmospheric pressure with a production rate of 866.01 µmol g −1 h −1 , outperforming state-of-the-art H 2 O-CLAS catalysts. Co doping modulates the d-band electronic structure of LaMnO 3 via spin-state engineering and enhances lattice oxygen mobility, thereby promoting N 2 and H 2 O activation, nitride formation, and hydrogen-bond interactions for ammonia formation. This work outlines a pathway toward sustainable ammonia synthesis with markedly reduced energy consumption and carbon emissions. Scheme.

Water activities for the CaCl2–SrCl2–H2O ternary system and its sub-binary system were elaborately determined using an isopiestic vapor-pressure method at 323.15 K. The solubility of the titled ternary system at 323.15 K was also determined by the isothermal equilibrium method. The Pitzer–Simonson–Clegg (PSC) model was used for correlating the determined water activity and solubility data, simulating the thermodynamic properties, and predicting the solubility isotherm of the titled system. The reliability of the determined solubility results in this work was evaluated by comparing with the solubility isotherms calculated with the PSC model. The model simulation results showed that the thermodynamic properties and solubility can be predicted with binary parameters only. The experiment and simulation results showed that the equilibrium solid phase in the CaCl2–SrCl2–H2O ternary system are pure salts, and no solid solution was found at 323.15 K.

In view of the composition characteristics of lithium, calcium, and bromine rich in Nanyishan oilfield water of the Qaidam Basin, Qinghai Province, the phase equilibrium relationships of quaternary system LiBr–NaBr–KBr–H2O and its ternary subsystems LiBr–NaBr–H2O and LiBr–KBr–H2O at 348.15 K were studied by the isothermal solution equilibrium method, and the equilibrium solid-phase crystallization regions and composition of each invariant point in each system were determined. The results show that there is no complex salt or solid solution in ternary systems LiBr–NaBr–H2O and LiBr–KBr–H2O at 348.15 K, and the phase diagram contains only one invariant point, two isothermal univariate curves, and two equilibrium solid-phase crystallization regions. The quaternary system LiBr–NaBr–KBr–H2O also has no formation of complex salt or solid solution, and the phase diagram contains only one invariant point, three isothermal univariate curves, and three equilibrium solid-phase crystallization regions. Meanwhile, the phase equilibrium relationships and change laws of each component of the above-mentioned systems at different temperatures were compared and discussed.

In view of the composition characteristics of lithium, calcium and bromine rich in Nanyishan oil and gas field brine of western Qaidam Basin, Qinghai Province, as well as based on the results reported in relevant literature, the phase equilibrium relationship of ternary system LiBr-CaBr2-H2O at 298.15 K was studied by isothermal dissolution equilibrium method. The equilibrium solid phase crystallization regions, as well as the compositions of invariant point, in phase diagram of this ternary system were clarified. On basis of the above ternary system research, the stable phase equilibria of quaternary systems (LiBr-NaBr-CaBr2-H2O, LiBr-KBr-CaBr2-H2O and LiBr-MgBr2-CaBr2-H2O), as well as quinary systems (LiBr-NaBr-KBr-CaBr2-H2O, LiBr-NaBr-MgBr2-CaBr2-H2O and LiBr-KBr-MgBr2-CaBr2-H2O) were further carried out at 298.15 K. According to the above experimental results, the corresponding phase diagrams at 298.15 K were drawn, which revealed the phase relationship of each component in solution and the law of crystallization and dissolution, and meanwhile summarized changing trends. The research results of this paper lay a foundation for further research on the multitemperature phase equilibria and thermodynamic properties of lithium and bromine containing high-component brine system in later stage, and also provide basic thermodynamic data for guiding the comprehensive development and utilization of this oil and gas field brine resource.

Abstract In this work, the equal-water activities for the ternary system LiCl−KCl−H 2 O and its sub-binary systems LiCl−H 2 O were determined using an isopiestic method at 323.15 K. The determined isopiestic composition lines for the LiCl−KCl−H 2 O system were found to deviated Zdanovskii rule high with increasing ionic strength of the mixture solution. The addition of KCl to an aqueous solution of LiCl was found to decrease and increase the water activity at low and high LiCl molality. The Pitzer–Simonson–Clegg (PSC) model was used to represent the experimental determined water activities of the titled system and the calculated values are discussed. Based on the calculated results, the turning point appears at about 17.0 mol kg −1 LiCl solution.

In addition to the common sodium salt, potassium salt, magnesium salt, and sulfate, salt lake brine is also rich in trace components in varying degrees, such as lithium, bromine, rubidium, cesium, and so forth, which is of great industrial value. These trace components are further concentrated and enriched in old brine during the process of evaporation and concentration of brine resources. In view of the coexistence characteristics of lithium, potassium, bromine, and other ions in old halide, the phase equilibria of quinary system Li+, Na+, K+/Br–, and SO42––H2O were studied by the isothermal dissolution equilibrium method at 298.15 K. The solubility data of the equilibrium liquid phase were measured, and the compositions of the solid phase as well as the crystal forms of the equilibrium solid phase were identified when the equilibrium was achieved. The corresponding 3D and dry-base phase diagrams (Na2SO4·10H2O, K2SO4, LiBr·2H2O, Li2SO4·H2O, KBr, and NaBr·2H2O saturated) were drawn based on the phase equilibrium experimental data. The research results of phase equilibria and phase diagrams reveal that the phase relations and crystallization–dissolution law of each component in solution lay a certain foundation for further research on multi-temperature phase equilibrium and thermodynamic properties of the high-component brine system and to provide basic thermodynamic data for guiding the rational development and comprehensive utilization of brine resources.

The formation mechanism of nanoparticles is of great significance for the controllable synthesis, structural design, and performance optimization of nanomaterials. In this paper, an economical hydrothermal method was used to synthesize zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods. X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption fine structure, and small-angle X-ray scattering techniques were used to probe the structural changes. Scanning electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy were used to observe the morphologies of the products. A self-designed in situ temperature–pressure sample cell was used to control the hydrothermal conditions. The results demonstrate that an unknown intermediate phase, Zn(HCO3)2·H2O, was first formed at 50 °C, having a morphology of nanoflakes with a average thickness of about 35 nm. The intermediate phase Zn(HCO3)2·H2O was determined to have a monoclinic structure with space group P1211 and the following lattice parameters: a = 11.567 Å, b = 3.410 Å, c = 5.358 Å, β = 96.0011°, and Z = 2. After a hydrothermal temperature of 140 °C, CO2 and H2O were evaporated from the Zn(HCO3)2·H2O intermediate product and the ZnO nanorods with a wurtzite structure were formed. The final ZnO nanorods have an average diameter of about 45 nm and an average length of about 2 μm. The axial direction of the ZnO nanorods is the [001] crystallographic direction. By virtue of understanding the formation mechanism, this work is helpful for the controllable synthesis of ZnO nanoparticles.

A series of ammonium-containing fluoroiodates, NH4IO2F2 and (NH4)3(IO2F2)3·H2O, with isolated [IO2F2] units have been fabricated by a fluorine-oxygen substitution strategy from NH4IO3. The two compounds crystallize in the orthorhombic system, but in different space groups, noncentrosymmetric Pca21 for NH4IO2F2 and centrosymmetric Pnma for (NH4)3(IO2F2)3·H2O, and show wide band gaps of 4.53 eV for (NH4IO2F2) and 4.55 eV for ((NH4)3(IO2F2)3·H2O). In addition, NH4IO2F2 exhibits a 1.2 × KDP second harmonic generation response, a short ultraviolet cutoff edge in iodates, and a good crystal growth habit. The crystal of NH4IO2F2 with a size of 11 × 5 × 2 mm3 was obtained by the aqueous solution method. The results enrich the structural diversity of iodate and supply a greater understanding of the design of new functional materials based on the fluoroiodates.

Adding nanoparticles can enhance the mass and heat transfer of basic fluid, improving the coefficient of performance(COP) of the absorption refrigeration system(ARS). However, there are few experimental studies on the effects of absorption pressure and temperature on the absorption performance of nanofluid in an actual ARS. Therefore, the TiO 2 nanoparticles are added to the NH 3 - H 2 O – LiBr working fluid. The difference in ammonia mass fraction between the inlet and outlet solution of the absorber (Δ ε ' a ) is compared with when the solution is absorbed saturated (Δ ε a ). The results indicate that the Δ ε ' a and system COP increase when the absorption temperature decreases, the absorption pressure increases, or the TiO 2 mass fraction increases. The ratio Δ ε ' a /Δ ε a is used to evaluate the absorption efficiency of the nanofluid. The positive effects of nanofluid on the absorption efficiency and COP slightly increase when absorption temperature increases, but decrease when the absorption pressure is greater than 0.31 MPa. For all of our test groups, the greatest improvement in absorption efficiency is 85 %, and the largest improvement in COP is 13.7 %.

Rare-earth ore concentrate is calcined at high temperature by the alkaline method, and the associated elements fluorine and phosphorus are enriched in the form of sodium fluoride and sodium phosphate in water elution. To separate and recover fluorine and phosphorus from the aqueous solution, the solid–liquid equilibrium behaviors of the quaternary systems Na+//F–, CO32–, PO43–-H2O and their two sub-ternary systems NaF-Na3PO4-H2O and Na2CO3-Na3PO4-H2O at 313.15 K were studied via the isothermal solubility phase equilibrium method. Solubility data, liquid density and pH, two complete isothermal phase diagrams of the ternary system, and one complete isothermal phase diagram of the quaternary system were obtained. The results showed that two double salts NaF·2Na3PO4·19H2O and Na3PO4·3Na2CO3·8H2O occurred in the respective ternary systems. Five solid species of one anhydrous salt of NaF, two hydrous salts of Na2CO3·H2O and Na3PO4·12H2O, and two double salts of Na3PO4·3Na2CO3·8H2O and NaF·2Na3PO4·19H2O were found in the quaternary system. The phase diagram of the quaternary system consisted of three invariant points, five crystallization regions, and seven univariate curves. Na3PO4 easily combined with NaF to form double salt NaF·2Na3PO4·19H2O, which occupied a larger phase region in the quaternary phase diagram. The increase in Na2CO3 will lead to the decrease in the solubility of Na3PO4 and NaF in the system.

Levulinic acid in high yields (90%) was produced from hemicellulose-derived furfuryl alcohol catalyzed by a uniform, dandelion-like, SO 3 H-modified silica nanoflower solid acid (SiNF–SO 3 H). The SiNF–SO 3 H catalyst was prepared by soft template method in microemulsion system, followed by grafting of –SH and oxidation of –SH to –SO 3 H at room temperature to avoid use of corrosive sulfonating agents such as concentrated H 2 SO 4 . Dandelion-like porous structures of the SiNF–SO 3 H catalyst provided accessible and abundant catalytic sites ensuring high activity for furfuryl alcohol conversion (100%). Mixed-solvent γ -valerolactone-water (GVL-H 2 O) inhibited undesirable furfuryl alcohol polymerization reactions ensuring highly selective conversion of furfuryl alcohol to levulinic acid. Combination of catalyst and solvent system allowed achievement of the highest levulinic acid yields that have been reported to date. Both the catalyst synthesis protocol and reaction solvent (GVL-H 2 O) are green and sustainable. The SiNF–SO 3 H/(GVL-H 2 O) catalytic system has application to many acid catalyzed schemes for lignocellulosic biomass conversion.

In this paper, the stable phase equilibrium data of the ternary system CaBr2-SrBr2-H2O at T = 273, 298, and 323 K and 101.3 kPa have been determined by isothermal the dissolution equilibrium method. The phase diagrams of them at the investigated temperatures have been drawn. It is found that the isothermal phase diagrams of the CaBr2–SrBr2–H2O system at T = 273, 298, and 323 K are classified as a simple co-saturation type consisting of an invariant point and two univariant curves. The equilibrium solid phases corresponding to an invariant point of the system were detected as CaBr2·6H2O + SrBr2·6H2O at 273 and 298 K and those identified as CaBr2·4H2O + SrBr2·6H2O at 323 K. In this system, calcium bromide exhibits a strong salting-out effect on strontium bromide. Furthermore, isothermal solubilities at three temperatures were compared and discussed.
