A type of photothermal catalyst was prepared by photoreducing cobalt ions with geopolymer/Ag9(SiO4)2NO3(GA). The loading of Co0significantly expanded the visible-light response range. Due to the photoreduction effect, the loading of Ag0and Co0facilitated the transfer of photogenerated electrons and strong thermal excitation, significantly enhancing the photothermal synergy effect. The photothermal catalyst achieved a CO production rate of 70.20 mmol·gcat−1·h−1, and the selectivity of CO reached 97.67% at 400 °C. The CO product rate in the fifth cycle still reached 68.8 mmol·gcat−1·h−1, which provided a reference for extending the functionality of photocatalysts after the photoreduction of heavy metal ions.

The morphology and regeneration ability of adsorbents are important for gas pressure swing adsorption and separation. Herein, HCP-1 (a hyper-crosslinked polymer) and HCP@MAO(Fe) (a hyper-crosslinked polymer modified by ferrocene) with a spherical morphology are synthesized by a post-crosslinking reaction of chloromethylated styrene-divinylbenzene (Cl-St-DVB) beads for the separation of CO2/CO and CO2/CH4. Both static adsorption and dynamic separation tests verified that HCP@MAO(Fe) has the best gas adsorption and separation performance. The highest adsorption capacity of CO2 reached 1.24 mmol/g. The IAST selectivity of CO2/CO is up to 20.6. Moreover, HCP@MAO(Fe) can be regenerated by simple vacuum operation, contributing to the low value of adsorption enthalpy (24.5 KJ/mol). The adsorption mechanism between CO2 and the resin framework was also studied by experiments and electrostatic potential map analysis. A stronger interaction can be found between CO2 and HCP@MAO(Fe) as a result of the higher Mulliken charge of the cyclopentadiene structure.

Exploiting effective electrocatalysts toward electrochemical conversion of CO2 into valued-added chemicals is highly desirable for achieving the global carbon cycle. In this work, we report the synthesis of Cu3P/C nanocomposites by phosphatizing the copper-based
metal organic framework precursor. Systematic electrochemical characterizations demonstrate the Cu3P/C nanocomposites hold high activity and favorable selectivity towards CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) into CO, as manifested by an onset potential is about −0.25
V versus reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) and a faradic efficiency (FE) of 47% for CO production at a relatively low potential (−0.3 V). The attractive catalytic properties might be attributed to the synergistic effect of cooper and phosphorus elements, as well as the unique structure
of Cu3P. Furthermore, we propose an asymmetrical-electrolyte Zn–CO2 battery with the Cu3P/C as cathode catalyst, demonstrating a decent performance with an open-circuit voltage of 1.5 V and a power density of 2.6 mW cm−2 (at 10 mA cm−2).

The ZIF-8 crystals were successfully postsynthetically modified using methylamine (MA), ethylenediamine (ED), and N, N-dimethylethylenediamine (MMEN) to improve their adsorption performance toward CO2. Results showed that, compared with the original ZIF-8, the BET specific surface area of MA-ZIF-8, MMEN-ZIF-8, and ED-ZIF-8 has increased by 118.2%, 92.0%, and 29.8%, respectively. In addition, their total pore volume increased separately by 130.8%, 100%, and 48.7%. The adsorption capacities of CO2 on the amine-modified ZIF-8 samples followed the order . The CO2 adsorption capacities at 298 K on MA-ZIF-8, MMEN-ZIF-8, and ED-ZIF-8 were increased by 118.2%, 90.2%, and 29.8%, respectively. What is more, the CO2/N2 selectivities calculated using an IAST model of the amine@ZIF-8 samples at 0.01 bar and 298 K were also significantly improved and followed the order , which increased by 173.0%, 121.4%, and 22.6%, respectively. The isosteric heat of CO2 adsorption () on the MA-ZIF-8, MMEN-ZIF-8, and ED-ZIF-8 all becomes higher, while of N2 on these samples was slightly lower in comparison with that on the ZIF-8. Furthermore, after six recycle runs of gravimetric CO2 adsorption-desorption on MA-ZIF-8, the adsorption performance of CO2 is still very good, indicating that the MA-ZIF-8 sample has good regeneration performance and can be applied into industrial CO2 adsorption and separation.

Owing to the harmful consequences of the greenhouse effect, mankind has reached a consensus to reduce CO 2 emissions. CO 2 utilization and sequestration is considered the most feasible solution for realizing an effective and economical sequestration of CO 2 . Herein, CO 2 -enhanced oil recovery (EOR) is a representative strategy owing to its tremendous sequestration capacity and reasonable economic viability. However, the low sequestration stability and the accompanying secondary disasters have hindered its wider application. Considering this, a novel CO 2 utilization and sequestration technology, i.e., CO 2 electrochemical reduction (CO 2 RR)-EOR technology was proposed and its effects and mechanisms were studied. First, a SnO 2 catalyst that can be used in the coreflooding experiments was synthesized and its efficiency on CO 2 RR was evaluated. Then, coreflooding experiments using the SnO 2 catalyst were conducted to study the influence of CO 2 RR on the CO 2 sequestration and oil recovery. Next, contact angle and interfacial tension were measured to analyze the effect of the CO 2 RR on the CO 2 -crude oil-brine-rock interaction. Finally, the CO 2 RR-EOR mechanism was proposed. Multiple experiments revealed that the low-cost and easy-synthesis SnO 2 catalyst, which was characterized by the 3-dimensioned hierarchical and porous structure, was in the high efficiency and strong stability. Coreflooding results illustrated that the CO 2 RR remarkably enhanced CO 2 sequestration and oil recovery. At the optimal cell potential of 3.75 V, the CO 2 sequestration efficiency and oil recovery were as high as 75.93% and 43.8%, respectively, which are much higher than those (50.56% and 37.9%, respectively) achieved in conventional CO 2 flooding. Contact angle and interfacial tension results indicated that the CO 2 RR has a significant impact on the CO 2 -crude oil-brine-rock interaction. At the optimal cell potential, the crude oil-contact angle and the interfacial tension were 36.2° and 8.9 mN/m, respectively, which are much lower than those (64.6° and 16.4 mN/m, respectively) achieved in conventional CO 2 flooding; the CO 2 -contact angle was 52.2°, which too is much larger than that (31.7°) achieved in conventional CO 2 flooding. In this technology, the CO 2 RR converts the injected CO 2 into formate to sequestrate itself, and meanwhile alters the CO 2 -crude oil-brine-rock interactions, resulting in enhanced CO 2 wettability and consequently increases CO 2 trapping and retention; causing the weakened oil wettability and the enhanced oil-brine interaction, and finally enhances oil recovery. CO 2 RR-EOR can be a novel, efficient, and economically-viable CO 2 utilization and sequestration technology, which provide a feasible option for the future industrial CO 2 emission reduction.

Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have become potential candidates for gas purification technology, especially in carbon capture and storage applications. By utilizing strategies such as pore structure design and functional modification, COFs have been developed to exhibit high selectivity and superior adsorption capacity for the effective capture and separation of CO2 from industrial waste gases. Notably, alkali metals exhibit strong interactions with the backbone of the COFs, which can enhance the CO2/N2 adsorption separation performance of these porous materials. This study details the synthesis of two-dimensional COF materials modified with acidic groups (TpPa-COOH and TpPa-SO3H) via mechanical grinding. Alkali metals such as Na, Li, and K were introduced into these groups through simple ion exchange reactions, thereby creating metal-modified COF materials. The impact of various alkali metals on the CO2/N2 adsorption separation performance of COF materials was investigated. Among the resulting products, lithiated TpPa-COOH showed the highest CO2 capture capacity of 2.65 mmol/g at 273 K and 1 bar. This may be due to the smaller atomic size of Li that offers larger adsorption space. Under the same conditions, the K-modified TpPa-SO3H exhibited the highest selectivity of 548, which surpasses most COFs reported in the literature. The superior performance was caused by the high polarization of the COF backbone triggered by the alkali metals. The inference was further confirmed by computational simulations. This work provides a facile method for the modification of porous materials with alkali metals to achieve superior gas separation performance.

High-energy-density Li-CO2batteries are promising candidates for large-capacity energy storage systems. However, the development of Li-CO2batteries has been hindered by low cycle life and high overpotential. In this study, we propose a CO2-based thermoplastic polyurethane (CO2-based TPU) with CO2adsorption properties and excellent self-healing performance to replace traditional polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as the cathode binder. The CO2-based TPU enhances the interfacial concentration of CO2at the cathode/electrolyte interfaces, effectively increasing the discharge voltage and lowering the charge voltage of Li-CO2batteries. Moreover, the CO2fixed by urethane groups (-NH-COO-) in the CO2-based TPU are difficult to shuttle to and corrode the Li anode, minimizing CO2side reactions with lithium metal and improving the cycling performance of Li-CO2batteries. In this work, Li-CO2batteries with CO2-based TPU as the multifunctional binders exhibit stable cycling performance for 52 cycles at a current density of 0.2 A g−1, with a distinctly lower polarization voltage than PVDF bound Li-CO2batteries.

Sorption-enhanced steam reforming of methanol (SE-SRM) is a promising approach to creating a high-purity hydrogen supply. However, catalysts suffer from activity deactivation and low CO2 uptake capacity. In this study, we investigate the role of Ga doping of Cu–MgO in SE-SRM by synthesizing a series of MgO embedded xGaCuMg catalytic sorbents via a sol–gel method. The TEM-EDX mapping results indicate that MgO nanoparticles can be successfully embedded in the bulk-phase of the catalytic sorbent with a stabilized microstructure. The results from in situ diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) reveal that the Ga-doped catalytic sorbent is conducive to promoting the conversion of C-containing intermediates in SE-SRM, and absorbing CO2 in the form of bidentate carbonate rather than monodentate carbonate. Experimental studies verify that the best uptake capacity of 18GaCuMg catalytic sorbent (36.25 mg CO2/g MgO) achieves almost complete conversion of methanol (99.70%) with 100% H2 selectivity at 200 °C. Specifically, no CO is formed during the kinetic-control stage of SE-SRM. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations based on the Cu(111)Ga2O3(202)MgO(200) model revealed that the Ga doping can enhance the adsorption energies of methanol and carbon dioxide, promoting methanol activation and increasing CO2 uptake capacity. These findings provide valid strategies for functionalized nanomaterial design, which will substantially promote the SE-SRMR performance with desired catalytic sorbent recyclability.

Graphical “All-in-one” porous structure : In this work, we introduce a straightforward one-pot fabrication strategy to prepare a robust and flexible hierarchically macro-meso-micro porous HKUST-1 / polyvinylidene fluoride composite by solvent evaporation, in which MOF crystallization and polymer precipitation are combined. The obtained composite showed an enhanced CO 2 adsorption rate and high gas adsorption capacity. Controlled synthesis of metal–organic framework (MOF)-based materials with multiple levels of porous structures across different length scales is of great interest in various applications but it still remains challenging. Most of the current strategies are time consuming and labor intensive, and not readily scaled-up. In this work, we introduce a straightforward one-pot fabrication strategy to prepare a robust and flexible hierarchically macro-meso-micro porous HKUST-1/polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) composite through solvent evaporation, in which MOF crystallization and polymer precipitation are combined together. The effect of the MOF precursor and the polymer initial amount on the morphology of the final composite was thoroughly studied. The interaction between the MOF and the polymer during the evaporation process is the key factor, which would limit the mobility of the polymer chains and cause instability in the MOF growth, thus endowing the composite with a hierarchically macro-meso-micro porous structure. This “all-in-one” porous structure could enhance the mass transport property of molecules within the composite. The obtained HKUST-1/PVDF composite showed an enhanced CO 2 adsorption rate constant of 0.821 min −1 (298 K, 1 bar), which was 3.5 times higher than that of the pristine MOF. In addition, the composite showed an equivalent gas adsorption capacity under all tested pressures and greatly improved water stability.

Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide, with limited therapeutic approaches. As an endogenous strategy for neuroprotection, postconditioning treatments have proven to be promising therapies against cerebral ischemia. However, complicated procedures and potential safety issues limit their clinical application. To overcome these disadvantages, we have developed acidic postconditioning (APC) as a therapy for experimental focal cerebral ischemia. APC refers to the mild acidosis treatment by inhaling CO2 during reperfusion following ischemia. Here we present two models to execute APC in vitro and in vivo, respectively. The oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) treatment of mice and the corticostriatal occlusion and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) of mice were employed to mimic cerebral ischemia. APC can be simply achieved by transferring brain slices to acidic buffer bubbled with 20% CO2, or by mice inhaling 20% CO2. APC showed significant protective effects against cerebral ischemia, as reflected by tissue viability and brain infarct volume.

Supported metal–organic framework (MOF) membranes are promising candidates for energy-efficient natural gas purification, but the preparation of ultrathin MOF membranes supported by polymer substrates remains challenging. Herein, we proposed a polymer collaboration method for preparing ultrathin two-dimensional MOF membranes on polymer support layers. Cu(II) meso-tetra (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrin (CuTCPP) membranes having thicknesses as low as <10 nm were formed in situ because of the high density of heterogeneous nucleation sites in a polyvinyl alcohol-Cu 2+ interface layer and the controlled anisotropic growth of nanocrystals enabled by a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) surfactant. The prepared CuTCPP membranes showed excellent CO 2 /CH 4 separation performance, yielding a high permeance of 4560 GPU and a moderate selectivity of 31.8. Furthermore, the prepared CuTCPP membranes also displayed good CO 2 /N 2 separation performance, having a CO 2 permeance of 3200 GPU and a CO 2 /N 2 selectivity of 36. The thickness of CuTCPP membranes can be controlled by varying the concentration of metal ions in the organic interface layer. This preparation method can not only fix the active sites for membrane formation but also control the morphology of crystal growth and is applicable to membrane fabrication using other porous MOFs.

A three-step supercritical CO 2 extraction was used for selective fractionation of fast pyrolysis bio-oil. Oxygen-containing compounds in bio-oil and its fractions were characterized using infrared spectroscopy (IR), 1 H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) and negative-ion electrospray ionization (ESI) Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FT-ICR MS). With appropriate optimization of extraction parameters, lipids, hemicellulose, lignin and condensed aromatics were found enriched in three different fractions. The molecular composition and compound classes were identified by combined analytical techniques, and the selectivity of the fractionation was proved. The compound-type-specific fractionation also facilitated the following characterization and provided insights into the chemical composition of bio-oil. Results indicated that CO 2 supercritical fluid extraction was potential for bio-oil preprocessing.
