Selective non-catalytic reduction of NOx (SNCR) with NH 3 is commonly used in industrial facilities like circulating fluidized bed (CFB) furnaces. However, the strongly temperature-dependent de-NOx feature confines its applications in a specific temperature range (900–1050 °C). Here, we report a new strategy on using Fe-Ni-W exchanged zeolite (0.5FNW-H) as a catalyst to extend the SNCR temperature window. In the CFB reactor, a significant NOx conversion improvement ranging from 14.1% to 80.9% was achieved at 700 to 850 °C by applying the developed catalyst. Catalyst dosage of 4500 h −1 (GHSV), a particle diameter of 0.1–0.3 mm, and NH 3 injection position at the dense-phase zone were found preferred for NOx reduction with the highest efficiency of ~85% at 700 °C. The physicochemical properties of the catalysts remained stable after the circulating reactions in the CFB reactor. The developed catalyst is particularly applicable for improving the SNCR performance when the thermal power plants are operated at low loads.

To obtain high corrosion protection and break the bottleneck arising from galvanic corrosion between Ni layer and Mg alloy substrate, we report herein a triple-layer composite coating approach, consisting of Ni (ENP) underlayer, NiAl-layered double hydroxide (LDH) middle layer, and silane (PFDTMS) toplayer, i.e., ENP/LDH/PFDTMS. This nanocomposite coating was prepared on the Mg alloy surface by a combination of simple electroless plating, hydrothermal-assisted in situ growth, and condensation reaction. The surface morphology, structure, and chemical composition of the resulting composite coating are characterized using several techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The corrosion protection performance of the composite coating in a saline solution is evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), Tafel curve, and immersion measurements. The results indicated that the ENP/LDH/PFDTMS composite coating possesses a much higher corrosion resistance than the single Ni coating and the LDH-grown Ni (ENP/LDH) coating. In contrast to the severe galvanic corrosion the Mg alloy with single Ni coating observed in two days of exposure, the substrate with either ENP/LDH/PFDTMS coating or ENP/LDH coating is shown to exbibit no galvanic corrosion phenomenon even after 30 days of exposure. Moreover, the result from tests including contact angle measurement of the ENP/DLH/PFDTMS coating demonstrates the superhydrophobic function to several typical liquids in daily life and the good self-cleaning capability after contamination by graphite powder. These findings provide a fresh insight into the design of advanced coatings for inhibiting galvanic corrosion between Ni layer and Mg alloy.

Efficient ammonia and nitrite removal in low nutrient recirculating seawater of recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) is critical for healthy cultivation. However, it is hard for conventional biological aerated filters (BAFs) to meet this demand under short hydraulic retention time (HRT). The electrooxidation-BAFs (E-BAFs) were constructed for efficient seawater treatment in a RAS of Sebastes schlegelii , with high activity anodic catalyst Ni-Fe oxide-PEDOT. Satisfactory ammonia removal (88.2% in E-BAFs, 33.7% higher than the control, stage 3) and nitrite removal (69.9 % in E-BAFs, 45.3% in the control) were achieved at HRT of 50 min. The proportion of nitrifying bacteria ( Nitrospira, Nitrosomonas and Nitrosopumilus ) and nitrification/denitrification genes ( amo CAB, nxr AB, nar GHI, et. al ) were higher in E-BAFs than the control, suggesting better potential in functional bacteria enrichment. Aerobic colony number in RAS with E-BAFs was lower and specific growth rate (SGR) of Sebastes schlegelii (3.79%) was significantly higher, indicating a better culture effect.

A straightforward hydrothermal synthesis of NiMoS active phases loaded on SBA-15 was attempted. We initially prepared a catalyst by impregnating metal precursors sequentially onto SBA-15 and the subsequent hydrothermal treatment with sublimed sulfur. To obtain the one-pot catalyst, we performed the hydrothermal treatment of a mechanical mixture containing metal precursors, sublimed sulfur, and SBA-15. The catalysts were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, N 2 adsorption-desorption study, and high-resolution transmission emission spectroscopy . Compared to impregnation-assisted synthesis, the one-pot synthesis promoted the generation of dispersed shorter MoS 2 slabs with desirable average stacking number, i.e., increased number of edge and rim sites. Therefore, the one-pot catalyst enabled the ultra-deep sulfur removal (~100%) in the dibenzothiophene hydrodesulfurization . Unlike Ni(acac) 2 , the utilization of Ni(NO 3 ) 2 inhibits the sulfidation of molybdenum and the dispersion of MoS 2 layers, decreasing the hydrodesulfurization activity. The one-pot catalyst was able to achieve ~80% sulfur removal even after six consecutive catalytic runs under batch reactor conditions (320 °C, 6 MPa (H 2 ), 500 ppmw S, 100 mg (m cat )) due to the persistent stability of NiMoS active phases.

An electrochemically induced electrode with bromide ion (Br - ) dual adsorption sites was obtained by in-situ growing of Ni-MOF derivative/NiCo layered double hydroxide (Ni-MOF(D)/NiCo LDH) composite film on the stainless-steel wire mesh via an electrodeposition-assisted solvothermal method, which exhibited excellent Br - selectivity from ionic mixture solutions of Br - , NO 3 – and I - in an electrochemically switched ion exchange (ESIX) system. The Br - extraction capacity was as high as 126.30 mg·g −1 and the separation factors of Br - /NO 3 – and Br - /I - were 8.29 and 4.83 respectively. Combining the simulation and experimental results, it was confirmed that the highly efficient selective extraction of Br - in neutral solution should be derived from the dual-site (i.e., electrochemically induced laminate metal coordination sites and interlayer anion exchange sites of NiCo LDH) adsorption. Furthermore, the electrode demonstrated superior adsorption–desorption performance and electrochemical stability because of the in-situ growth strategy, which enhanced the binding force between NiCo LDH and substrate and improved the electrical conductivity of NiCo LDH, and provided a storage space for Br - . This study served deep understanding of ions selective extraction mechanism of LDH-based materials in the ESIX process, which could be a novel reaction concept for the design of those electrodes with specific recognition sites in the applications of them in other fields such as supercapacitors, sensors and batteries.

In this work, Ni(II) was used as peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator for decomplexation of Ni(II)-citrate, and subsequently applied for the decomplexation of chelated nickel in the electroless nickel plating wastewater. Effect of the co-existed substances (HCO 3 − , HPO 3 2− , H 2 PO 2 − , and P 2 O 7 4− ) on the decomplexation of Ni(II)-citrate were evaluated. Interestingly, except for H 2 PO 2 − , the presence of HCO 3 − , HPO 3 2− , and P 2 O 7 4− enhanced the decomplexation efficiency of Ni(II)-citrate via promoting the decomposition of PMS. Based on the radical quenching experiments and electron spinning resonance (ESR) spectra analysis, OH, SO 4 ‐ , and 1 O 2 were the primary reactive species involved in the decomplexation reaction process. Furthermore, after the decomplexation of the electroless nickel plating wastewater by PMS, the recovery of nickel was successfully achieved via adsorption coupled with electrodeposition , and 93.1% nickel recovery could be accomplished with initial Ni(II) eluent concentration of 32.5 g/L. Therefore, this study provides a green and promising approach for the application of advanced oxidation processes based on PMS activation, and has the potential to convert recoverable resources into value-added products from electroplating wastewater.

MnO2 nanotubes loaded with Pt and Ni–Fe spinel were synthesized using simple hydrothermal and sol–gel techniques. After loading with Ni–Fe spinel, the specific surface area of the material increases 3-fold. This change helped to provide more active sites and facilitated the association between the catalyst and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy determined that the adsorbed oxygen concentrations were all greatly increased after Pt loading, indicating that Pt promoted the adsorption of oxygen and so accelerated the combustion process. The performance of the catalyst after loading with 2 wt % Pt was greatly improved, such that the T90 for benzene decomposition was decreased to 113 °C. In addition, the 2% Pt/2Mn@NFO exhibited excellent low-temperature catalytic activity when reacting with low concentrations of toluene and ethyl acetate. This work therefore demonstrates a viable new approach to the development of Mn-based catalysts for the low temperature catalytic remediation of VOCs.

NiSe 2 /Ni 3 Se 4 dual-phase electrocatalysts are synthesized by calcining the Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets on Ni foam and Se powder under an N 2 atmosphere. The Ni’s charge-state, phase compositions, and electrocatalytic performances are dependent on the initial mass ratios of Ni to Se. The experimental results demonstrate that the electrocatalyst with a higher Ni charge-state and more Ni 3 Se 4 phase facilitates oxygen evolution reaction (OER), whereas the one with a lower Ni charge-state and more NiSe 2 phase boosts hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Density functional theory calculations reveal that the interfacial electrons transfer from Ni 3 Se 4 to NiSe 2 , which improves conductivity and optimizes adsorption/desorption energies. NiSe 2 /Ni 3 Se 4 /NF-4 containing more NiSe 2 phase displays the best HER activity while NiSe 2 /Ni 3 Se 4 /NF-1 containing more Ni 3 Se 4 phase shows the best HER activity. The electrolyzer, employing NiSe 2 /Ni 3 Se 4 /NF-4 and NiSe 2 /Ni 3 Se 4 /NF-1 as the cathode and anode, respectively, performs the full potential and demonstrates a low voltage of 1.56 V achieving 10 mA cm −2 with good durability.

H2O2 has a wide range of uses as an oxidant and is also utilized as a high density and environmentally friendly fuel. In this study, crystalline g-C3N4 was modified with K+, Ni and N-doped carbon by thermal-polymerization of Ni2+-anchored and polyvinyl pyrrolidone-encapsulated melamine-cyanuric acid supramolecules, followed by re-calcination in a KCl–LiCl mixture. The obtained strip-like g-C3N4 nanocrystals exhibited high charge separation efficiency and good light absorption capability. Density-functional theory calculations confirmed that the orbital hybridization of Ni–N atoms enabled the formation of charge-transfer channels, which can capture electrons, achieve enhanced oxygen adsorption and reduction via a two-electron pathway. Under the synergistic effects of K+, Ni and N-doped carbon dopants and crystallinity, the obtained sample exhibited high photocatalytic H2O2 yields of 79.6 μM in O2-saturated pure water, which was 10-fold higher than the yield using pristine g-C3N4. This work provides a novel design for production of highly efficient photocatalysts for H2O2 production.

Hydrogenation of biomass-derived furfuryl alcohol to widely used tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is an important industrial route, which however calls for a more efficient catalyst. In this work, a highly selective and stable Ni-C-Al 2 O 3 catalyst for furfuryl alcohol hydrogenation to tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol is reported. The catalyst precursor is prepared by in-situ growth of Ni-based metal organic frameworks (Ni-BTC) on Al 2 O 3 and then the precursor undergoes thermal decomposition to obtain the catalyst directly. For comparison, Ni-C/Al 2 O 3 acquired from pyrolysis of physically mixed Ni-MOFs with Al 2 O 3 and Ni/Al 2 O 3 prepared by impregnation method are also tested as the hydrogenation catalysts. The prepared catalysts are characterized by a series of techniques, including XRD, FT-IR, TG, TEM, SEM, XPS and BET to reveal the relationship between the catalysts structure and their performance. The results show that small metal Ni particle size and appropriate interaction between Ni and the support, which benefit from the in-situ preparation method are key factors that ensure the high furfuryl alcohol conversion (99.8%) and high selectivity to tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol (98.2%) at moderate reaction conditions (120 °C, 30 min, 4 MPa H 2 ).

Triglycerides is a kind of natural oil widely existing in animals and plants, and it is also an ideal raw material for preparing biomass liquid fuel. Selectively hydrotreatment of unsaturated glyceride is an important strategy for the production of fuels and chemical feedstocks. In this work, catalytic hydrotreatment of triglycerides over Ni-based catalysts was investigated. Thus, an array of metal–organic frameworks derived Ni@C catalysts synthesized under different temperatures (350 °C, 400 °C, 450 °C) were prepared and applied for hydrotreatment of triglycerides. The highest conversion of triglycerides was 98.9% and the cracking rate could achieve 4.61% over the optimal Ni@C-BTC-400 catalyst in cyclohexane at 320 °C. The physicochemical characterizations were carried out by means of powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electronic microscopy, thermo gravimetric analyzer, N 2 adsorption–desorption, and Raman. Based on the optimal reaction condition (320 °C, 3 h, 3.0 MPa H 2 ), five typical vegetable oils and gutter oils were selected for the hydrotreatment study to investigate the adaptability of Ni@C-BTC-400 catalyst. The result indicated that Ni@C-BTC-400 catalyst performed good universality, and could transform oil raw materials with different fatty acid carbon chain structure to desired alkanes. Furthermore, the optimal Ni@C-BTC-400 catalyst could be carried out in next two consecutive recycling runs and could also be regenerated by H 2 for the following experiments.

The use of biomass for the synthesis of value-added products, such as functional nanomaterial for the removal of contaminants, is a challenge. In this study, hybrid bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles and reduced graphene supported bimetallic Fe/Ni nanoparticles (Fe/Ni-rGO) were prepared via a one-step green synthesis using green tea extract, and thereafter evaluated for the simultaneous removal of rifampicin (RIF) and Pb(II) from aqueous solution. The efficiencies of Pb(II) and RIF removal by Fe/Ni-rGO were 87.5 and 96.8%, respectively. The removal performance of the hybrid Fe/Ni-rGO was better than either n Fe/Ni, rGO, or Fe-rGO. Detailed characterization and analyses of Fe/Ni-rGO indicated that both Fe and Ni nanoparticles were evenly distributed over the surface of rGO and that aggregation of Fe, Ni nanoparticles, and stacking of rGO in the hybrid were decreased. Furthermore, while LC-TOF-MS analysis showed that RIF was degraded into small-molecule fragments, XPS showed that Pb(II) was not reduced to Pb 0 . The major conditions impacting removal efficiency, adsorption kinetics, and fit to adsorption isotherm models were examined to better understand the removal mechanism. While the adsorption of both contaminants fit well a pseudo-second-order kinetic model, the adsorption of RIF fit the Freundlich isotherm model best, while the adsorption of Pb(II) fit the Langmuir isotherm model best. Thus, the removal mechanism of both contaminants firstly being chemical adsorbed onto the surface, while n Fe/Ni continues to participate in the catalytic reduction of RIF. Moreover, Fe/Ni-rGO could be reused and performed well for wastewater treatment , thus suitable as a practical resource recycling technology .
