The carrier transfer mechanism of S-scheme heterojunctions has been extensively explored, yet their impact on light absorption performance remains ambiguous. In this work, a finely designed S-scheme heterojunction was developed by coupling oxidation photocatalyst a specific covalent organic framework (COF)-TaTp, and reduction photocatalyst SnS 2 (SS) for in-situ H 2 O 2 photo-production and sterilization. The optimized 10% SS/TaTp achieved a 3.45- and 16.87-fold enhancement in H 2 O 2 generation than pure TaTp and SS, respectively, with significant improvements under visible and near-infrared (NIR) light. In-situ XPS, EPR, and Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM) verified the S-scheme charge transfer mechanism, underscoring accelerated photo-induced electrons migration and strengthened redox capacity. The internal electric field of 10% SS/TaTp was calculated to be 2.14 and 4.63 times stronger than TaTp and SS. Intriguingly, the electron localization function and partial density of states analyses revealed that the interfacial C-N-S covalent bonds finely tuned the energy band structure and generated hybrid energy levels in the heterojunction, thus improving light harvesting and catalytic performance in both visible-light and NIR region. This work highlights the role of interfacial covalent interactions in tuning energy levels in COF-based S-scheme photocatalysts.

In insects, the transcription factor cap ‘n’ collar isoform C (CncC) plays a critical role in the regulation of multiple genes involved in insecticide detoxification. Knockdown of CncC genes leads to increased susceptibility to different types of insecticides in several insect species. However, the CncC gene has not yet been fully characterized in the black cutworm Agrotis ipsilon , a notorious insect pest that causes severe damage to field crops. In this study, the CncC gene (designated AiCncC ) was identified from A. ipsilon . Exposure to a median lethal concentration (LC 50 ) of chlorantraniliprole (CAP) or phoxim (PHO) strongly increased the expression of AiCncC . Silencing of AiCncC by RNA interference significantly increased the susceptibility of A. ipsilon larvae to both insecticides. Moreover, CncC/Maf binding sites were predicted in the putative promoters of two glutathione S -transferase (GST) genes ( AiGSTe1 and AiGSTu1 ) involved in the detoxification of CAP and PHO. The transcription levels of AiGSTe1 and AiGSTu1 were dramatically decreased by silencing AiCncC . These findings indicate that AiCncC is associated with CAP and PHO susceptibility through the regulation of GST genes.

This study investigated the mediating effect of Triethanolamine on Fe@C- Rhodobacter sphaeroides hybrid photosynthetic system to achieve efficient biohydrogen production. The biocompatible Fe@C generates excited electrons upon exposure to light, releasing ferrum for nitrogenase synthesis, and regulating the pH of the fermentation environment. Triethanolamine was introduced to optimize the electron transfer chain, thereby improving system stability, prolonging electron lifespan, and facilitating ferrum corrosion. This, in turn, stimulated the lactic acid synthetic metabolic pathway of Rhodobacter sphaeroides , resulting in increased reducing power in the biohybrid system. The ternary coupling system was analyzed through the regulation of concentration, initial pH, and light intensity. The system achieved the highest total H 2 production of 5410.9 mL/L, 1.29 times higher than the control (2360.5 mL/L). This research provides a valuable strategy for constructing ferrum-carbon-based composite-cellular biohybrid systems for photo-fermentation H 2 production.

Petroleum-derived PET plastics and fibers are widely used in packaging and textile applications due to their superior properties and have become a major source of plastic waste. In this study, Ni 2 P-Co x P/ZrO 2 /C NFs p-n heterojunction photocatalytic system with the UiO-66-NH 2 metal-organic backbone (MOFs)-derived ZrO 2 (U-ZrO 2 ) was constructed by a combined method of electrospinning, carbonization, hydrothermal, and phosphorization process. Carbon nanofibers are used as carriers to combine the different components effectively. The Ni 2 P-Co x P/U-ZrO 2 /C NFs show strong light absorption ability throughout the entire visible light region. The needle-shaped structure formed by Ni 2 P-Co x P can provide abundant active sites, increase the reflection of light on the fiber surface, and promote the utilization of light by the photocatalyst. With the incorporation of the MOF structure, the specific surface area of the fibers was greatly enhanced. The coupling of Co x P with Ni 2 P and U-ZrO 2 establishes a p-n heterojunction at the photocatalytic interface, which promotes the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers and prolongs the charge lifetime while maintaining the strong redox capacity of the catalyst, enhancing the photocatalytic degradation activity. The MOF-derived ZrO 2 still maintains an octahedral shape, which favors the attachment of Ni 2 P and Co x P. As a result, the hydrogen production of the system reached 303.64 μ mo l H 2 g Sub − 1 after 24 h, and the weight loss rate of PET reached 18.77 ± 4.28%. Besides, the reusability of the catalyst was greatly improved by re-phosphorization of the used catalyst, which enables it to recover its catalytic degradation efficiency. This work provides new insights into the rational design of heterojunction photocatalysts with superior degradation performance.

Anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) have emerged as a promising clean energy technology due to their high efficiency and the potential to eliminate the reliance on precious metal catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at the cathode. Developing highly efficient nonprecious metal catalysts is crucial for enhancing AEMFC performance. In this study, we report a Co–S–N–C@MXene catalyst through sulfur doping and support loading. This catalyst demonstrates exceptional ORR activity, achieving a half-wave potential (E1/2) of 0.881 V. After 10,000 cycles of cyclic voltammetry (CV) testing, the E1/2 showed a minimal decline of only 14 mV, demonstrating excellent durability. Moreover, the AEMFC based on the catalyst achieved a peak power density of 466 mW cm–2.

Tar catalytic removal is a key issue in biomass gasification , which is suffering from catalyst coking and sintering. Microwave technology is attractive due to the high activity on polar molecules and ability to lower activation energy . In this study, the Co/C derived from metal-organic frameworks (ZIF-67) was developed as a bifunctional microwave catalyst that can strengthen the interaction between microwave and tar catalytic reforming , and enhance the anti-coking and sintering ability. The effects of the temperature, heating method, tar concentration, and catalyst support on model tar conversion rate were investigated. The operating conditions at 700 °C and tar concentration lower than 20 g/m 3 can reach a promising conversion rate over 90.15 % under microwave irradiation . On the one hand, microwave heating groups performed better in conversion rate and coking compared to conventional heating, due to the active species generated from the microwave plasma . On the other hand, Co/C showed better performance in catalytic activity and sintering stability, due to the highly dispersion of cobalt nanoparticles and the confinement effect of carbon nanotubes on the catalyst surface . These findings proposed a novel approach for efficient biomass tar removal under microwave irradiation, and offered a potential tool to further reveal the mechanism in microwave driven tar steam reforming system.

For high-performance electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorbers, designing inventive porous structures and developing multicomponent hybrid strategies remain challenging. Herein, crumpled porous Fe 3 O 4 /carbon composite microspheres (CMs/Fe) were synthesized via a multi-component pore-forming mechanism. By leveraging the rich nitrogen/oxygen functional groups and strong cross-linking properties of a monomer, namely triallyl isocyanurate (TAIC), the crumpled morphology, pore size, and nitrogen content of CMs/Fe were effectively regulated by adjusting the TAIC content. During carbonization, Fe 3 O 4 reduced to Fe particles, which catalyzed the formation of additional pore structures, increasing the specific surface area and further optimizing impedance matching. This is distinct from the previously reported Fe 3 O 4 /C composite. Additionally, the incorporation of magnetism into the carbon matrix enhanced the performance of the carbon material. Deionized water was used as the solvent throughout the synthesis process, making entire process ecofriendly and sustainable. Owing to electromagnetic synergistic attenuation, the CMs/Fe-2, with a low filling ratio of 16.7 %, exhibited a minimum reflection loss (RL min ) of −54.3 dB at an ultrathin thickness of 2.0 mm, with an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 5.26 GHz. This work provides new insights into the fabrication of lightweight magnetic/carbon composite materials as the leading candidates for EMW absorption applications.

13X zeolite–calcium oxide (CaO) composite capture agent application in the pyrolysis recovery of polyvinyl chloride (PVC)-based waste cables was investigated in this research to elucidate the agent’s efficiency in capturing chlorine (Cl) and carbon (C) during pyrolysis. The 13X zeolite–CaO mixture is subjected to separate pyrolysis of the PVC-based cable outer sheath in experimental furnaces of simulated solar-powered and thermogravimetry. Subsequently, a range of spectroscopic techniques are employed to quantitatively analyze the gaseous and solid products resulting from the pyrolysis process. Through X-ray fluorescence, total carbon, and other analyses, the research outcomes demonstrated that the capture agent exhibits superior Cl and C capture performance compared to using a single agent for plastic pyrolysis. The yield of Cl element in the solid residue has increased significantly by 130–140% under the presence of optimized composite capture agent. By determining the dynamic changes of gaseous and solid products during the cable outer sheath pyrolysis, the influence of the capture agent on the redistribution and transformation mechanisms of Cl and C elements was identified, and it was found that contaminating volatiles were well immobilized in the solid residue. This research provides a new solution for efficient Cl and C capture in the pyrolysis recovery of waste cables and determines the fixation and transformation mechanisms of Cl and C elements by the composite capture agent, indicating a potential for feasible and sustainable resource utilization of waste cables.

Chromium oxide nano-particles with an average diameter of 3 nm covered by amorphous carbon (CrOx/C) were successfully synthesized. The synthesized CrOx/C materials were used for the selective catalytic reduction of NOx by NH3 (NH3-SCR), which shows superb NH3-SCR activity and in particular, satisfactory regeneration ability in the presence of SO2 compared with Mn-based catalysts. The as-prepared catalysts were characterized by XRD, HRTEM, Raman, FTIR, BET, TPD, TPR, XPS and in situ FTIR techniques. The results indicated presence of certain amounts of unstable lattice oxygen exposed on the surface of CrOx nano-particles with an average size of 3 nm in the CrOx/C samples, which led to NO being conveniently oxidized to NO2. The formed NO2 participated in NH3-SCR activity, reacting with catalysts via a “fast NH3-SCR” pathway, which enhanced th NH3-SCR performance of the CrOx/C catalysts. Furthermore, the stable lattice of the CrOx species made the catalyst immune to the sulfation process, which was inferred to be the cause of its superior regeneration ability in the presence of SO2. This study provides a simple way to synthesize stable CrOx nano-particles with active oxygen, and sheds light on designing NH3-SCR catalysts with highly efficient low temperature activity, SO2 tolerance, and regeneration ability.

The lignin-first strategy is a crucial approach for highly efficient depolymerization of lignin to produce aromatic monomers as the condensation of lignin occurred during the separating process which increased the difficulty in depolymerization. In this work, a cobalt atom clusters supported on nitrogen-doped carbon catalysts (Co/NC-15) was prepared by adjusting the dosage of melamine to control the morphology, structure, and pyridinic nitrogen content of the catalysts. DFT calculations based on lignin model showed that the doping of nitrogen increased the adsorption energy of the lignin on the supports and decreased the dissociation energy of C-O bonds. Under lignin first strategy, Co/NC-15 exhibited good ability to break C-O bonds at 220 °C of mild condition, in which 84.32 wt% of lignin in lignocellulosic biomass was converted into 40.62 wt% of aromatic monomers, while 84.02 wt% of cellulose was preserved. The atom clusters Co/NC-15 exhibited good catalytic activity to lignin depolymerization due to efficient cleavage of C-O bonds, and hence showed the promising prospect in potential industrial application.

P-type semiconductors [copper oxide (CuO) and cuprous oxide (Cu2O)] have been widely researched as good gas sensing materials due to their unique oxygen adsorption properties. In this work, C-doped CuO/Cu2O hollow nano-octahedrons have been prepared by thermal decomposition of the Cu-based metal–organic framework ([Cu3(BTC)2]n). The CuO and Cu2O nanoparticles form nano-octahedron heterojunctions by a close packing mode. A large number of active heterojunction sites were exposed, which significantly increased the adsorbed oxygen (O2–) content. Meanwhile, doping C in the lattice of the heterojunction effectively reduces the band gap of CuO/Cu2O and promotes the chemical reaction of the target gas on the surface of the material. Density functional theory calculations indicate that the CuO/Cu2O heterojunction has strong adsorption ability for NO2. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy further reveals that C-doped CuO/Cu2O hollow nano-octahedrons-40 min heterojunction has the best electron transport performance. The sensors have good gas sensing response (22.88–50 ppm) and selectivity to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) at room temperature (28 °C). In addition, the sensor has extremely low detection, which can detect parts per billion level NO2 (20.50% to 100 ppb). It is expected to provide a reference for the development of a room-temperature NO2 sensor.

Cobalt sulfide (Co 9 S 8 ) is a promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to its high theoretical capacity, cost-effectiveness, and environmental friendliness. Unfortunately, the inevitable structural deterioration induced by the huge volume changes during the discharge/charge cycles leads to poor cycle performance and rate capability when evaluated as the anode material for SIB. Herein, we designed a Co 9 S 8 @C-MoS 2 heterostructure with abundant heterointerface and hollow structure. In the designed hybrid architecture, the self-supporting hollow carbon scaffold can provide sufficient space for volume expansion caused by Na + insertion, and the abundant heterointerface can accelerate ion-diffusion and electron transfer kinetics and dissipate the internal stress induced by volume expansion during the sodiation/desodiation process. As expected, the Co 9 S 8 @C-MoS 2 composite shows excellent sodium storage performance. Specifically, the Co 9 S 8 @C-MoS 2 composite displays excellent long-term cycling life (a high capacity of 429.4 mAh g −1 is maintained after 1500 cycles at 5.0 A/g), and superior rate performance (412.6 mAh g −1 is achieved even at 10.0 A/g).
