In this study, a novel Al°-CNTs-Cu 2 O composite, capable of activating O 2 to generate H 2 O 2 and further to reactive oxygen species (ROSs) at a wide pH range, was synthetized, characterized and applied for the degradation of sulfamerazine. In the activation of O 2 by Al°-CNTs-Cu 2 O composite, H 2 O 2 was generated from the reaction of O 2 with Al°-CNTs, which could be catalytically decomposed into O 2 − and OH by Cu 2 O, the formed Cu(II) could be rapidly reduced to Cu 2 O by Al°-CNTs in composite, which made Al°-CNTs-Cu 2 O composite reusable and decreased the leaching of copper ions into solution. The removal efficiency of SMR and TOC was 73.91 % and 56.80 %, respectively at initial pH = 5.8, T = 20 °C, O 2 flow rate = 100 mL/min, Al°-CNTs-Cu 2 O dosage = 2 g/L, SMR = 50 mg/L, and reaction time = 60 min. The removal efficiency of SMR kept almost unchanged and the concentration of copper ions in solution was below 0.5 mg/L. The Al°-CNTs-Cu 2 O/O 2 process could be used as a novel catalyst for the degradation of refractory organic contaminants in water and wastewater by Fenton-like process at a wide pH range through the in situ generation of H 2 O 2 .

Syngas, as a necessary feedstock dependent on non-renewable fossil fuels, is a mixture of CO and H2, which could be prepared by a renewable strategy via electrochemical CO2 reduction in water electrolyte solutions. Herein, beaded Au@Co3O4 nanowire arrays (denoted as Au@Co3O4 NAs) were obtained by immersion in HAuCl4 solution with Co3O4 nanowire arrays. The Au@Co3O4 NAs exhibited outstanding electrochemical performance of producing syngas via tuning from 1 : 1 to 4 : 1 with controlling voltage. In addition, the Au@Co3O4 NAs showed better catalytic performance for the oxygen evolution reaction with an overpotential of 320 mV at a current density of 50 mA cm−2, along with a small Tafel slope of 75 mV dec−1 in 1 M KOH solution. The electrochemical performance of Au@Co3O4 NAs is obviously superior to Co3O4 NAs, which will open up a viable strategy for the design and fabrication of a bi-functional electrocatalyst for the overall reaction (CO2 + H2O → CO + H2 + O2).

Photocatalytic O 2 reduction presents a sustainable strategy for H 2 O 2 synthesis, while the in-situ decomposition of H 2 O 2 significantly deteriorates the activity and stability. Here, by introducing anthraquinone centers into covalent organic frameworks (DQTb-COFs), for the first time, we realized the suppression of in-site decomposition of generated H 2 O 2 via site-engineering of COFs. Under visible light irradiation, DQTb-COFs achieves an H 2 O 2 generation rate of 1844.1 μmol h −1 g −1 without sacrificial agents, which is about 3.4 times that of its counterpart without anthraquinone centers (DATb-COFs). The generated H 2 O 2 on DATb-COFs is readily reduced into hydroxyl radicals (•OH), which is not observable on DQTb-COFs. Experiments and calculations demonstrated that the anthraquinone centers of DQTb-COFs can enhance the generation of H 2 O 2 by facilitating the utilization of O 2 and promoting the desorption of H 2 O 2 . This work highlights how to inhibit the in-situ decomposition of H 2 O 2 via site-engineering of COFs, and blazes a new trail for highly efficient H 2 O 2 photosynthesis.

Hydrothermal self-assembly is a highly efficient and low cost method to prepare graphitic foam from graphene oxides; however, the self-assembly frameworks usually do not have controllable pore structures because of the spontaneous process. In this paper, a hydrothermal synthesis assisted by ammonium peroxo-polymolybdate [(NH4)2Mo2O11] tailoring to fabricate graphitic foam is presented. The foam possesses pore structures which can be controlled by adjusting the rate of charge in the hydrothermal experiments. Furthermore, the foam obtained from a definite rate of charge [(NH4)2Mo2O11 : graphene oxide is 1 : 2 in weight] has a hierarchical pore structure and a through-hole net. In electrochemical energy storage, such unique features are beneficial for providing efficient mass transport as well as abundant, accessible active sites. The graphitic foam was tested for use as self-supported electrodes of Li–O2 batteries (LOBs) and Li ion batteries (LIBs) without any metallic current collectors or organic binders, and the foam frameworks exhibited remarkable lithium ion storage properties in both of the two batteries (e.g., 5500 mA h g−1 at 0.2 A g−1 as LOB cathodes and 250 mA h g−1 at 50 A g−1 as LIB anodes).

Constructing heterojunctions is an effective strategy for increasing semiconductor photocatalytic activity. Herein, a Bi2O3/Bi4O5Br2 type-II heterojunction was synthesized using a simple one-pot solvothermal route. The 0-dimensional (0D) Bi2O3 nanoparticles are uniformly distributed within the 2D Bi4O5Br2 nanosheets with (101̅) facets dominantly exposed. In comparison with pure Bi2O3 and Bi4O5Br2, they show higher photocatalytic activity degradation of resorcinol (RO) and Rhodamine B (RhB). The Bi2O3/Bi4O5Br2 composite containing 10% Bi2O3 (BOB4) displays the best photocatalytic activity. For instance, compared with pure Bi4O5Br2 and Bi2O3, the k(RO) values of BOB4 (0.58 h–1) are 3.1 and 4.8 times higher. The enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to the formation of a large heterojunction interface that results from the homogeneous distribution of Bi2O3 nanoparticles in the Bi4O5Br2 nanosheet, which effectively enhances the photogenerated charge separation in a type-II mode. Major active species include superoxide radicals (•O2–), hydroxyl radicals (•OH), and holes (h+). In addition, the Bi2O3/Bi4O5Br2 photocatalysts exhibit outstanding resistance to inorganic ions, pH, water matrix, as well as outdoor sunlight and favorable stability and biocompatibility. This work presents a simple method to construct Bi-based heterojunction architectures for photoactivity improvement.

Propylene epoxidation by H 2 and O 2 to propylene oxide (HOPO), as a novel method for PO production, has attracted widespread attention due to its economic and environmental advantages. Acrolein is a notable byproduct arising in HOPO reaction over Au/TS-1 catalyst, and is traditionally thought to be exclusively formed on Au site through propylene oxidation. However, on the intraporous and external surface Au sites of Au-Ti catalysts, the HOPO reaction have been shown to proceed by different mechanisms, yet the effect of active sites distribution on acrolein formation is far from being understood. Herein, we found that the reaction orders in acrolein formation on Au/TS-1 catalyst (H 2 , 0.19; O 2 , 0.44; C 3 H 6 , 0.44) relative to Au/TS-1 with blocked pores (Au/TS-1-B) catalyst (H 2 , −0.36; O 2 , 0.61; C 3 H 6 , 0.52) were quite different, suggesting a variation in the reaction pathway on the catalysts with different Au locations. Moreover, it is found that PO can be converted to acrolein by O 2 on TS-1 zeolite, which is absent on TS-1-B zeolite without micropores. Consequently, acrolein formation on Au/TS-1 catalyst can proceed through two parallel pathways: propylene hydro-oxidation on Au site, and PO conversion by O 2 inside micropores. Furthermore, by designing and preparing the Au/TS-1 catalysts with different structures, the Au locations are closely related to acrolein formation mechanism and kinetic behaviors. This work provides kinetic insights into the acrolein formation pathways in the HOPO reaction on Au/TS-1 catalyst, and is helpful to the rational design and preparation of efficient catalysts with high selectivity.

Li–O2 batteries (LOBs) boast an exceptionally high theoretical energy density; however, the slow kinetics of the oxygen electrode reaction have been a significant hurdle in their advancement and practical application. In this study, a composite of bismuth oxyhalide heterojunction incorporated with metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) was engineered on carbon cloth (Zr-MOF/BiOIBr/CC) as an efficient bifunctional catalyst to enhance the oxygen electrode reaction in photo-assisted LOBs. Compared to Zr-MOF/CC, Zr-MOF/BiOIBr/CC significantly expands the light absorption spectrum of the catalyst. Furthermore, the built-in electric field in the heterojunction aids in the separation and directional movement of photogenerated carriers, thereby expediting the reaction kinetics of LOBs. Consequently, the photo-assisted LOBs with Zr-MOF/BiOIBr/CC as the cathodes display a discharge potential of 3.05 V, a low charge potential of 3.20 V, and an energy efficiency of up to 95.3%, and can sustain an extended cycle life of over 255 cycles. This study underscores the potential application of MOFs/semiconductor heterostructural materials in photo-assisted LOBs and offers insights into the systematic design of photo-assisted air batteries and other advanced semiconductors.

Redox mediators (RMs) represent the most promising strategy to address the sluggish kinetics of lithium–oxygen (Li–O 2 ) batteries. To achieve high-energy and cost-effective Li–O 2 batteries, carbon materials are typically regarded as ideal cathodes in these systems. However, the impact of their surface properties—which often regulate specific discharge pathways—on the RM-mediated oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) remains unclear. In this study, CNTs electrodes with different surface properties are fabricated. Results suggest that CNTs with more surface defects not only promote the unmediated discharge pathway even in RMs-involved battery systems but also exacerbate the corrosion of carbon cathodes. This, in turn, leads to the undesired accumulation of Li 2 O 2 and Li 2 CO 3 on the cathode surface, which hinders effective and continuous electron transfer between the cathode and RMs, ultimately decreasing the catalytic activity of RMs. As a result, the discharge capacity of the battery is seriously diminished, especially at large current densities. These findings underscore the significance of surface engineering in advancing the performance of RMs-assisted Li–O 2 batteries.

Photocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) offers a mild and cost-effective approach for hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) production. However, its practical application is significantly hindered by rapid charge carrier recombination and insufficient O 2 adsorption capacity in photocatalysts. To address these limitations, we developed a strategy involving the creation of S-vacancy-rich CdIn 2 S 4 (S v –CIS) to facilitate charge separation and subsequent deposition of Au nanoparticles on its surface (Au–S v –CIS) to strengthen O 2 adsorption. The results suggest that the optimized Au–S v –CIS achieves a significantly increased H 2 O 2 production yield of 2542 μmol·h·g −1 in 10%-ethanol/water solution, which is about 12.8 and 1.7 times higher than that of pure CIS and S v –CIS. Comprehensive characterizations including photoluminescence spectra, time-resolved photoluminescence spectra, transient photocurrent response, electrochemical impedance spectra, and femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy confirm the improved charge dynamics of Au–S v –CIS. In addition, temperature-programmed desorption of O 2 combined with density functional theory calculations conclusively demonstrates the superior O 2 adsorption capacity of Au–S v –CIS. This work provides a design strategy for efficient solar–to–chemical energy conversion through cooperative photocatalyst engineering.

Photocatalytic oxidation of nitrogen oxides (NO x ) is a promising technology for environmental protection and green sustainable development. However, its practical application remains limited due to inefficient activation of NO and O 2 , stemming from inadequate structural design of photocatalysts. Herein, we developed a thin-layer two-dimensional (2D) material Bi 2 MoO 6 (BMO) via cetyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (CTAC) addition in synthesis process, which effectively modulates the surface electronic structure, enhance the light absorption and activation of NO and O 2 . This thin-layer Bi 2 MoO 6 nanosheets achieved a NO oxidation efficiency of 45.3 %, which was about 5.5 times that of traditional bulk BMO (8.2 %). Additionally, it demonstrated superior selectivity for NO 2 − /NO 3 − production (86.6 %) compared to bulk BMO (60.5 %) and significantly reduced the formation of toxic NO 2 byproducts (13.4 % vs. 39.5 %). Combining experimental characterizations and density functional theory (DFT) simulations, it demonstrated that the electron-hole pair separation could be promoted and targeted adsorption activation of O 2 can be enhanced to form superoxide radicals (•O 2 − ) and singlet oxygen ( 1 O 2 ) via the effect of surface charge transfer adjustment on the thin-layer structure of Bi 2 MoO 6 , which are key factors affecting the efficiency and selectivity of photocatalytic oxidation of NO. This work provides important insights into the formation of directed ROS and proposes a unique mechanism for selective NO oxidation.

This work presents a three-stage hybrid nanosecond discharge (NSD) and direct current (DC) discharge assisted n -C 5 H 12 /O 2 /N 2 ignition with lower discharge energy and higher energy efficiency. The reaction rate coefficients between O 2 (a 1 Δ g ) and n -C 5 H 12 are updated by mass/Master equation simulation. The promotive ignition enhancement via reaction channel O 2 (a 1 Δ g ) + n -C 5 H 12 → C 5 H 10 + H 2 O 2 in the hybrid NSD/DC discharge is demonstrated. The results show that the ignition delay time of the three-stage hybrid plasma assisted ignition is 1–2 orders of magnitude shorter than that of the two-stage hybrid discharge when the reduced electric field strength in the DC discharge stage is over 10 Td. Meanwhile, the plasma-enhanced energy efficiency of three-stage hybrid discharge increases. This improved efficiency on ignition enhancement is due to the kinetic enhancement by the electronically excited species and radicals (O 2 (a 1 Δ g ), O( 1 D), N 2 (B) and O). The kinetic and thermal effects by plasma are effectively intergated to enhance ignition. However, more discharge energy deposited in the vibrationally excited states N 2 ( v ) in the two-stage hybrid discharge is less efficient on ignition enhancement due to the thermal contribution via vibrational-translational relaxation. In the aspect of NO x /N 2 O emissions, reduction efficiency of the three-stage hybrid discharge is two times higher than that of the two-stage hybrid discharge. By controlling the N/N( 2 D) production pathway e + N 2 → e + N + N( 2 D), the three-stage hybrid discharge reduces NO x and N 2 O production by 61.1 % and 90 %, respectively. The results show that the ignition delay time is non-monotonically dependent on the discharge pulse number. There exist optimal pulse number, reduced electric field and effective threshold power density of DC discharge to achieve maximum ignition enhancement and low NO x /N 2 O emissions. This study provides valuable insights into the use of NSD/DC hybrid discharge technology in advanced engines to achieve energy-efficient ignition enhancement and reduce NO x /N 2 O emissions.

Controlling both CO and NOx pollutants without additional cost is necessary but challenging, especially in industrial flue gas with complex components. Previous studies mainly focused on the effect of O 2 and SO 2 on the CO oxidation side reaction and valence state of Ir species on various catalysts, while neglecting the impact on NO conversion pathway. Herein, we propose an "ineffective reaction pathway" in the presence of O 2 with nitrate as an intermediate according to the results of in situ DRIFTS and DFT. And we also reveal the contribution of SO 2 in inhibiting the adsorption of O 2 and promoting the selective adsorption of NO and CO even at lower injection concentrations, based on the oxidation of SO 2 on Ir(111). This is quite a favorable characteristic for the treatment of industrial flue gas, resolving the long–standing dispute on the involvement of these components in the CO–SCR reaction. Under specific conditions (CO/NO=20, O 2 =5%, SO 2 =200 ppm) at 250 °C, the NOx conversion is as high as 78%. These results will contribute to the development of more efficient catalysts in the future for simultaneously controlling two pollutants (CO and NOx).
