Nickle-copper ferrite (Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 ) supported on activated carbon (AC) (AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 ) was synthesized and used as adsorbent, photocatalyst, and activator of peroxydisulfate (PDS) to realize the removal of ciprofloxacin (CIP). AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 properties were characterized by scanning electron microscope equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherm plot of Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) and Barrett-Joyner-Halenda (BJH), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM). A rapid removal rate (94.30%) of CIP was achieved on AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 /PDS/UV system with the condition of catalyst dosage 0.30 g/L, initial pH 7.3, PDS addition 0.20 mM, CIP concentration 10 mg/L (200 mL), UV 28 W, in 30 min. Free radical quenching experiments indicate that reactive species of superoxide (·O 2 − ), holes (h + ), sulfate radicals (SO 4 − ·) and hydroxyl radicals (·OH) were produced and all worked. The reusability test demonstrated that AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 could be recycled five times with minimal performance reduction for the removal of CIP. The XRD and SEM of the after used AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 did not change significantly, which further showed its stability and recyclability. This work might provide new insight into the application of AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 in photocatalysis coupled with adsorption in peroxydisulfate assisted system and has high potential in CIP removal. AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 was synthesized by a simple co-precipitation method. AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 has a large specific surface area and thus can provide more reaction sites. AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 can be used as adsorbent, photocatalyst, and activator of peroxydisulfate. AC@Ni 0.5 Cu 0.5 Fe 2 O 4 displayed an excellent recyclability.

Slow and random transfer of pollutants and photo-induced carriers on photocatalysts causes loss of efficiency in photodegradation of contaminants. Enhancing and directing mass transfer of them are considered as two major methods for improving the photodegradation of pollutants over photocatalysts. Here in this work, we focused on the design of a novel photocatalyst which not only accelerated the transfer rate of Cr(VI) and electrons but also provided specific transfer routes for them. By careful characterizations, it is indicated that 2-((2-(2-aminoethylamino)ethylimino)methyl)phenol (AEMP) was covalently attached onto activated carbon (AC), which enhanced Cr(VI) transfer from bulk solution to AC through electrostatic or coordinative interactions. The external mass transfer coefficient ( K f ) of Cr(VI) over TiO 2 /AC-AEMP was estimated as 1.75 × 10 −6 m s −1 , which was ~ 12.79 and ~ 5.96 times that of TiO 2 and TiO 2 /AC, respectively. Dense and homogeneous heterojunctions between AC and TiO 2 were acquired synchronically by forming Ti–O–C linkages, which increased traveling of electrons from TiO 2 to AC. Accordingly, Cr(VI) can capture photo-induced electrons on the surface of AC via concrete routes and then be reduced efficiently. The results showed that the photoreduction rate of Cr(VI) on TiO 2 /AC-AEMP reached to ~ 92.7%, and the overall photocatalytic activity of this well-designed TiO 2 /AC-AEMP has been enhanced significantly by 5.5 times compared to TiO 2 /AC. The enhanced photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 /AC-AEMP was mainly attributed to an improved synergetic process of mass transfer–induced adsorption–photoreduction by forming specific transfer routes for accelerative motion of Cr(VI) and electrons. This work provides a feasible strategy to improve the photoactivity of photocatalysts for the degradation of pollutants by effective mass transfer.

This work presents a facile approach for clean and chemoselective synthesis of various functionalized arylamines from their corresponding substituted nitroarenes through the unexpected synergistic effect of a Lewis acid and the Ni–W2C/AC catalyst, affording almost 100% arylamine yield. The results challenge the long-held axiom that the combination of Lewis acid and hydrogenation catalyst mainly enhances the transformation of nitrobenzene (NB) to p-aminophenol via Bamberger rearrangement of the formed intermediate phenylhydroxylamine (PHA) under catalytic hydrogenation conditions. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and FT-IR spectroscopy were employed to reveal the relationship between catalyst nature and catalytic performance, and a plausible reaction mechanism is also proposed. Reaction results demonstrate that the FeCl3–Ni–W2C/AC catalytic system shows comparable catalytic performance towards precious metals for chemoselective reduction of various aromatic nitro compounds, affording 100% yield for all substrates involved in this work (99.5% of isolated yield for model substrate). Moreover, it can be found that the catalyst could be easily recovered by filtration and recycled without visible loss of its catalytic activity. Therefore, the developed FeCl3–Ni–W2C/AC catalytic system in this work can be considered as a practical candidate for clean and highly-efficient synthesis of diverse functionalized arylamines. We believe this approach can be extended to the other hydrogenation reactions.

Hydrate-based adsorption and hydration natural gas (AHNG) technology was reported to achieve large methane storage density under mild conditions. In order to enhance methane uptake, a composite nano porous material of MIL-101(Cr)@AC was prepared through fluorine-free hydrothermal reaction, and methane adsorption isotherms for both dry and wet samples were measured under hydrate favorable conditions. Hydrate in-situ formation loaded by the composite material was also carried out, while hydrate kinetics was evaluated by Raman spectrum. It was found that MIL-101(Cr) remains cubic symmetric structure when activated carbon (AC) was doped, but its size decreases with the increase in AC doping amount, while the specific surface area and pore volume significantly increase, and this enhances methane adsorption that increases by 65.58%. More enhanced methane uptake was obtained when wet sample was applied due to adsorption and hydration synergy, wherein methane physical adsorption ability remains, while formed hydrate stores extra methane. The contribution of hydrate to methane uptake is up to 40%, so large methane storage density is anticipated, methane volumetric uptake is up to 179.3 V/V under a mild condition (9.3 MPa and 274.15 K), which increases by 38.03%. Compared with our recently reported ZIF-8@AC, methane storage capacity in this new material increases by 36.5% (Chem. Eng. J., 2023, 455, 140503). In addition, hydrate progressive growth with the increase in adsorption pressure was observed, the area ratio of hydrate large cages to small one finally approaches to the theoretical value of 3:1, suggesting approximately complete conversion of pre-adsorbed water.

The incomplete preferred orientation polarization and partially back-switching reoriented domains during/after poling with electrical loading and unloading were ubiquitous and suppressed both piezoelectric constant ( d 33 ) and depolarization temperature ( T d ) of piezoelectric ceramics. In this work, a simple poling strategy with multi-cycles of AC electric field is proposed to realize polarization wake-up in unmodified 0.92Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 TiO 3 -0.08BaTiO 3 (BNT-8BT) with significantly enhanced d 33 from 65 pC/N to 161 pC/N and high T d of 200 °C simultaneously. Through comprehensive analysis on the polarization wake-up and polarization switching process, it is demonstrated that remarkably improved d 33 originates from AC cycles poling induced coexistence of P 4 bm and P 4 mm phases, depinned domains and defect dipoles orientation polarization. The internal bias field (E i ) resulted from defect dipoles orientation aids the d 33 and its high temperature stability. Our work provides a convenient and inexpensive method that there need not commonly delicate compositions control in lead-free piezoceramics on advancing to alleviate the trade-off between d 33 and T d .

Sintering deactivation of loaded precious metal catalysts is a pressing issue in the field, significantly reducing catalyst activity. Among them, the redispersion of carbon-loaded precious metal catalysts under a high-temperature atmosphere suffers from the problem of carbon carriers being prone to carbonization. In this study, the sintered PdZn/AC catalysts could be redispersed at low temperatures by adding the additive Zn. Combined with TEM, XRD, XPS, and other characterization means, it was found that the main reason for the redispersion of the sintered catalysts was that the Zn additive could form an alloy with Pd, which promoted the formation of high-valent Pd species, which exfoliated into small particles by oxidation in the O 2 –CO atmosphere. In addition, the factors that influenced the process (Zn content, redispersion temperature, treatment time, and number of treatments) were investigated using the controlled variable method. The present work presents a new idea for recycling sintered precious metal catalysts.

A series of N-modified Ru/N x -AC catalysts were prepared by ammonia treatment method and applied in dioctyl phthalate hydrogenation, which is a cascade reaction system involving partial hydrogenation of aromatic ring and the further saturated hydrogenation of the formed intermediate bis(2-ethylhexyl) cyclohexene-1,2-dicar-boxylate (DH 4 ) to dioctyl di-2-ethylhexylcyclohexane-1,4-dicar-boxylate (DEHCH). N doping was found to be able to increase the nitrogen-containing pyridine groups on the activated carbon (AC) surface, resulting in the abundance of binding sites for anchoring Ru and exceptionally enhancing the dispersion of Ru nanoparticles. Furthermore, the N-modified Ru/N 12 -AC catalyst exhibited a significantly higher turnover frequency value (1260.06 h −1 ) than Ru/AC catalyst (913.64 h −1 ). It was deduced that the presence of the pyridine groups could improve the adsorption of intermediate DH 4 by promoting the coverage of DH 4 on the catalyst surface. The environment of surface-enriched DH 4 accelerated the reaction rate of DH 4 hydrogenation and increased the selectivity to DEHCH. Therefore, the cooperation between highly dispersed Ru nanoparticles and pyridine groups supports remarkably enhanced the activity and selectivity. In addition, the Ru/N 12 -AC catalyst presented excellent catalytic activity and versatility in the hydrogenation of other phthalates such as dimethyl phthalate, diethyl phthalate, and dibutyl phthalate, demonstrating its prospective application in phthalate esters hydrogenation.

Sorbitol, a product primarily derived from glucose hydrogenation, has extensive applications in the pharmaceutical, chemical and other industries. Amino styrene-co-maleic anhydride polymer encapsulated on activated carbon (Ru/ASMA@AC) catalysts were developed for efficient glucose hydrogenation and were prepared and confined Ru by coordination with styrene-co-maleic anhydride polymer (ASMA). Through single-factor experiments, optimal conditions were determined to be 2.5 wt.% ruthenium loading and a catalyst usage of 1.5 g, 20% glucose solution at 130 °C, reaction pressure of 4.0 MPa, and a stirring speed of 600 rpm for 3 h. These conditions achieved a high glucose conversion rate of 99.68% and a sorbitol selectivity of 93.04%. Reaction kinetics testing proved that the hydrogenation of glucose catalyzed by Ru/ASMA@AC was a first-order reaction, with a reaction activation energy of 73.04 kJ/mol. Furthermore, the catalytic performance of the Ru/ASMA@AC and Ru/AC catalysts for glucose hydrogenation were compared and characterized by various detection methods. The Ru/ASMA@AC catalyst exhibited excellent stability after five cycles, whereas the traditional Ru/AC catalyst suffered from a 10% decrease in sorbitol yield after three cycles. These results suggest that the Ru/ASMA@AC catalyst is a more promising candidate for high-concentration glucose hydrogenation due to its high catalytic performance and superior stability.Keywords:Ru/ASMA@AC catalyst;coordination;glucose conversion;sorbitol yield;confine

A green and sustainable three-dimensional particle electrodes system with nickel-iron layered double hydroxide mixing activated carbon particles (NiFe-LDH/AC) as particle electrodes is used in this work. Its employment in degradation of N-Nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA), A type of nitrosamines disinfection byproducts (NAs) widely present in water bodies, exhibiting significant degradation efficiency at close to neutral pH. Response surface methodology (RSM) is used to analyze the interaction effects and predict optimal conditions of four operating parameters (influent water flow, electrolyte concentration, current density and initial concentration) on the NDEA degradation efficiency. Calculated coefficients of determination (R 2 ) are higher than 0.997 for all responses according to analysis of variance. At optimum conditions, a maximum degradation efficiency of 71.88% is achieved for NDEA. The results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and free radical quenching experiments indicate that the degradation of NDEA in the 3D AER system is dominated by •OH. Furthermore, based on the recognition of main reaction intermediates by GC-MS and density functional theory (DFT), possible degradation pathway is proposed and toxicological evaluation of degradation products is made. Our research provides a promising alternative method for the efficient and environmentally friendly removal of NAs from water.

Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma coupled with Fe–Mn doped AC (Fe–Mn/AC) was used to enhance the degradation of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) wastewater. Fe–Mn/AC catalysts with different Fe/Mn molar ratios were prepared by hydrothermal method, and the physical and chemical properties of the samples were explored by different characterization techniques, including XRD, SEM , TEM and XPS. The results showed that the combination of DBD with Fe 2 –Mn 1 /AC system had the highest effect, and the degradation efficiency of TCH could reach 98.8 % after 15 min treatment, which was 25.5 % higher than that of DBD-only. With the increase of discharge voltage and catalyst dosage, the degradation efficiency of TCH promoted. And initial pH had little effect on the degradation of TCH. In the combined system, the Fe 2 –Mn 1 /AC catalyst could retain an excellent stability and reusability. The addition of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) showed that ·OH participated in the TCH degradation. The generated O 3 might be catalyzed by Fe–Mn/AC catalyst to produce more ·OH. And more H 2 O 2 was produced in DBD-only system than that in DBD-catalytic system. Nine main degradation intermediate products in the combined system were detected by HPLC-MS, and three possible degradation pathways were proposed.

Graphical H 2 reduction reduces part of Cu 2+ to Cu + and Ce 4+ to Ce 3+ on the catalyst surface, and Cu and Ce can be stably anchored on the surface of the Cu−Ce/AC catalyst, which effectively improves the dispersion of the Cu component, and then slows down the loss of metal Cu. In this study, we utilized the carbon precursor derived from walnut shells to synthesize a series of Ce-modified Cu-based carbon catalysts (Cu−Ce/AC) via the impregnation method. We investigated the performance and stability of Cu−Ce/AC catalysts for CWAO phenol after H 2 reduction at various temperatures. The Cu−Ce/AC-250 catalyst exhibited its highest performance at 250 °C, achieving complete phenol conversion. Characterization results from techniques including XRD, BET, FTIR, ICP-OES, SEM-EDS, XPS, and H 2 -TPR indicated that the active components of the H 2 -reduced catalysts were more evenly distributed across the catalyst surface, thereby enhancing the availability of reactive sites for phenol oxidation. Simultaneously, under the appropriate temperature, the H 2 atmosphere can reduce a portion of the Cu 2+ on the catalyst surface to Cu + , thereby mitigating the loss of Cu components.

Chondroitin AC lyase can efficiently hydrolyze chondroitin sulfate (CS) to low molecule weight chondroitin sulfate, which has been widely used in clinical therapy, including anti-tumor, anti-oxidation, hypolipidemic, and anti-inflammatory. In this work, a novel chondroitin AC lyase from Pedobacter xixiisoli ( Px chonAC) was cloned and overexpressed in Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). The characterization of Px chonAC showed that it has specific activities on chondroitin sulfate A, Chondroitin sulfate C and hyaluronic acid with 428.77, 270.57, and 136.06 U mg −1 , respectively. The K m and V max of Px chonAC were 0.61 mg mL -1 and 670.18 U mg -1 using chondroitin sulfate A as the substrate. The enzyme had a half-life of roughly 660 min at 37 °C in the presence of Ca 2+ and remained a residual activity of 54 % after incubated at 4 °C for 25 days. Molecular docking revealed that Asn123, His223, Tyr232, Arg286, Arg290, Asn372, and Glu374 were mainly involved in the substrate binding. The enzymatic hydrolysis product was analyzed by gel permeation chromatography, demonstrating Px chonAC could hydrolyze CS efficiently.
