Carbon resource recovery from toxic organic wastewater to reduce unnecessary energy loss and greenhouse gas emissions is rarely pursued. In the present study, a promising approach for formic acid (FA) recovery from EDTA wastewater was proposed by coupling ozonation and flow-electrode capacitive deionization (Ozo/FCDI). In the ozonation process, a FA productivity of 25% was obtained with the complete degradation of EDTA. The FA recovery from wastewater was compared under electrodialysis (i.e., without the use of flowable carbon electrodes, 0 wt%) and FCDI (i.e. using 5 wt% flowable carbon electrodes) processes and the results demonstrated the superiority of the FCDI process. After 390 min of operation, the accumulated FA concentration in the anode chamber of the FCDI system had increased to 633.6 mg/L with a low energy consumption of 8.0 kWh/kg FA, which was 1.8 times of the FA concentration in the electrodialysis (ED) process and nearly 6.4 times in the feed stream. These findings suggest the effective acquisition of high value-added FA in the Ozo/FCDI system; may provide new opportunities and challenges for the recovery of organic compounds.

Two-dimensional (2D) graphene-based materials are widely applied as electrodes for supercapacitors due to their vast surface area and excellent charge mobility. However, the pursuit of the theoretical capacitance of graphene has lasted besides the improvements of charge/discharge rate and cycling life. In this work, a nitrogen and fluorine co-doped holey graphene hydrogel (NF-HGH) was synthesized by using consecutive solvothermal treatments for creating vacancies on the graphene basal plane and introducing heteroatoms into the graphene framework. The NF-HGH as an electrode for supercapacitors exhibited a remarkable electrochemical performance of 345.4 F g−1 at 1 A g−1 in 6 M KOH electrolyte. In addition, the specific capacitance of the assembled all-solid-state flexible symmetric supercapacitor (SSC) was 67.3 F g−1 at 1 A g−1, with an outstanding long-term cycling stability over 10 000 cycles. The delivered maximum energy and power densities were 7.99 W h kg−1 and 10.08 kW kg−1, respectively. The abundant pyrrolic-N doped at the edge of etched vacancies and the formed semi-ionic C–F bonds around pyrrolic-N were critical for electrochemical developments, which provided a sensational method to construct carbonaceous frameworks for energy storage systems.

The graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was fabricated and used to determine 4-aminophenol (4-AP). In 0.1 M pH 6.3 phosphate buffer solution , the redox peak currents of 4-AP increased significantly and the peak-to-peak separation decreased greatly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified GCE compared with bare GCE and chitosan modified GCE, indicating that graphene possessed electrocatalytic activity towards 4-AP. The experimental conditions were optimized and the kinetic parameters were investigated. The oxidation mechanism was discussed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peak current was proportional to 4-AP concentration in the range from 0.2 to 550 μM with the correlation coefficient of 0.9930. The detection limit was 0.057 μM (S/N = 3). Using the proposed method, 4-AP was successfully determined in water samples and paracetamol tablets with standard addition method, suggesting that this method can be applied to determine 4-AP in environments and pharmaceuticals.

Low energy density remains a major obstacle limiting the development and application of flexible sodium-ion batteries (SIB). Thus, this study aimed to eliminate non-active materials in electrodes, which can be a feasible way to increase the energy density of SIBs. An anode made up of flexible, free-standing SnS 2 /Sb 2 S 3 /Ti 3 C 2 T x composite carbon nanofibers (SnSbS/T-M@CNF), a Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 composite carbon nanofibers cathode (NVP@CNF), and composite gel polymer fiber electrolytes (CGPFE) were successfully synthesized through electrospinning. MXene nanosheets improved the electrical conductivity of the SnSbS/T-M@CNF electrode and absorbed sodium sulfide, inhibiting the loss of S during the reaction. Consequently, the SnSbS/T-M@CNF free-standing electrode could be stably cycled for 1000 cycles at a current density of 1 A g −1 and maintained a reversible capacity of 397.6 mAh g −1 . Further, the NVP@CNF cathode and CGPFE quasi-solid electrolyte half-cells had an excellent cycle stability and rate performance. The flexible, free-standing SnSbS/T-M@CNF anode and NVP@CNF cathode were assembled into quasi-solid-state full cells to test their application value. The SnSbS/T-M@CNF||CGPFE||NVP@CNF full cell had a very low resistance and could easily power a 3 V LED chest lamp. After 500 cycles, it maintained a discharge capacity of 153 mAh g −1 under a current density of 0.5 A g −1 .

Ultraflexible electronics have received extensive attention due to their favorable properties, such as superior mechanical robustness, light weight and good compatibility with large-area roll-to-roll fabrication. Here we present a flexible sandwiched tungsten trioxide/silver nanotrough network/poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)–poly(styrene sulfonate) multi-layer transparent conducting electrode with prominent conductivity (sheet resistance as low as 1.08 Ω sq−1) and transparency (85%). In particular, the flexible transparent electrode exhibits excellent mechanical robustness upon bending and stretching. This hybrid electrode can be further adhered tightly to a layer of WO3 to form an electrochromic device, which simultaneously displays a rapid switching time (0.75 s/1.82 s for bleaching/coloring) and high cyclic performance (86% retention of the initial optical contrast after cycling for 30 000 s). In addition, our electrode can also be fabricated on various flexible substrates, such as polyethylene cling wrap, polydimethylsiloxane and Ecoflex, with sustained electrochromic properties after bending, twisting, stretching and even strong kneading. Our work provides new opportunities for the next generation of flexible and wearable electronics applied on various flexible substrates.

Organic compounds have been utilized in rechargeable batteries as electrode materials on account of their designable structures and reversible redox properties. However, most of them suffer from problems with dissolution resulting in poor electrochemical performance. In this work, we adapt a sodium salt of tetracyanoquinodimethane (NaTCNQ) to work as a high redox potential cathode material in sodium ion batteries (SIBs). A porous carbon coated separator is demonstrated to be an adsorption layer and prevents the dissolved active material from migrating to the anode side. The NaTCNQ cell assembled with a carbon layer containing 5% activated carbon (AC) exhibits a higher initial capacity and greatly improved cycling stability. Using a conductive adsorption layer in organic redox batteries is a promising pathway to develop high performance organic electrode materials for SIBs.

Ni 3 S 4 @MoS 2 nanosheets grown on the carbon fiber paper (Ni 3 S 4 @MoS 2 /CFP) were successfully prepared via a facile one-step hydrothermal technique. Serving as a supercapacitor electrode, the obtaining Ni 3 S 4 @MoS 2 /CFP exhibits a remarkable specific capacitance of 1296 F/g, high rate capability of 57.8%, and excellent cycling stability of 96.2% retention after 5000 cycles. The superior electrochemical properties of Ni 3 S 4 @MoS 2 /CFP nanocomposite is attributed to the synergistic effects of the layeredNi 3 S 4 , MoS 2 and the conductive CFP.

A large area graphene platform electrode (GPE) was fabricated by transferring chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown graphene on Cu foils onto polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates with the aid of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Cobalt hexacyanoferrate (CoHCF) was electrodeposited on GPE by cyclic voltammetry. The morphology and electrochemical properties of CoHCF/GPE were studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and the electrochemical measurements. The CoHCF/GPE showed favorable sensing effect toward H 2 O 2 . A novel non-enzyme H 2 O 2 sensor was constructed. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the proposed sensor responded to the addition of H 2 O 2 very quickly (about 2 s) with a wide linear rang (0.005–1.2 mM) and a low detection limit (7.1 nM). This sensor was easy to be fabricated and showed excellent stability and anti-interference ability.

Bisphenol A (BPA) was successfully electrodeposited on glassy carbon electrode modified with the chitosan-graphene (Chit-GR/GCE) by multiple sweep voltammetry under ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. The experimental conditions of the BPA deposits and the probable oxidation mechanism were investigated. Two oxidation peaks (peakII=0.12 V, peakIII=0.20 V) appeared in a suitable potential range of 0.0V and 0.2V at the Chit-GR/GC eletrode in the presence of UV light, and it could be seen that the oxidation peak current increased with the increase of UV irradiation time. The emerging peakIII was reported firstly in the work, which showed that the Chit-GR modified electrode had catalytic activity on the oxidation of BPA. Based on the oxidation peak (III) of BPA oxidative porducts on the Chit-GR/GC electrode under UV irradiation, the electrochemical sensor was fabiracated for determination of BPA. The calibration curve was obtained in the range of 5.0 to 200.0 μM with the limit of detection of 0.34 μM (S/N=3) and the response sensitivity of 0.33 μA μM -1 , which was higher than those of the method of determining BPA based on the direct oxidtation of BPA (0.98 μM (S/N=3), 0.12 μA μM -1 ). It was applied successfully for determination of BPA in lake, soil and plastic bottle samples. The new strategy, based on anodic electrodeposition and photocatalytic oxidation of BPA oxidation porducts, was provided for determination of BPA under UV irradiation. It was green, evironmental and effective.

A carbon nanotube reinforced polypyrrole nanowire network was constructed by in situ polymerization of pyrrole in the presence of carbon nanotubes using cetyltrimethylammonium bromide micelles as a soft template. Carbon nanotubes as a reinforcer were embedded into a network of polypyrrole nanowires, thus retaining in the latter a complete network. The resulting network possessed a specific surface area of 112.1 m2 g−1 and a rough porous structure. The embedding of carbon nanotubes decreased the charge transfer resistance in the polypyrrole nanowires and allowed easy access and rapid diffusion of ions/electrons. When applied as a capacitive electrode, a specific capacitance of 183.2 F g−1 was observed at a current density of 8 A g−1. The specific capacitance retention was 85% after 1000 cycles at 1 A g−1. An asymmetric supercapacitor was fabricated using the network as a positive electrode and active carbon as a negative electrode, and when operated at a maximum voltage of 1.5 V, had a high energy density (15.1 W h kg−1 at 3000 W kg−1). A long-term cycling test of the asymmetric supercapacitor at a current density of 1 A g−1 displayed a capacitance retention of 72% even after 3000 cycles of charge and discharge.

Dissolutions of the polymer in the chaotropic salts follow Hofmeister effect, and the aggregate of salts and solvents shows new influence of the Hofmeister effect. Here, we reveal the aggregation of ion–solvent in chaotropic salt solution catalyzes the formation of the exposed Lewis acid-base center and realizes the dissolution of polyamide (PA) macromolecules. The relationship between Hofmeister effect, aggregate chemistry and Lewis acid-base chemistry is examined from new perspective. And then, a new solvent system and phase conversion process are designed for polyamides. Finally, the applications of PA in ZIBs as coating layer and binder are realized. As an electrode coating, it can effectively inhibit hydrogen evolution, corrosion and dendrite problems and improve the cycle life (cycle over 1500 h at 0.5 mA cm −2 ). As a binder, the active material adhesion on current collector, uniformity and wettability of the electrode are improved. The assembled pouch-cell with PANI cathode shows a capacity of 150 mAh g −1 after 120 cycles. This work reveals the secret of controlled phase transformation of polyamide in saline solution from a new perspective. And this phase conversion method is simpler, greener and more environmentally friendly, which greatly accelerates the application of polyamide in the field of membrane science and binder science.

An electro-Fenton process was developed for wastewater treatment in which hydrogen peroxide was generated in situ with a rotating graphite disk electrode as cathode. The maximum H 2 O 2 generation rate for the RDE reached 0.90 mg/L/h/cm 2 under the rotation speed of 400 rpm at pH 3, and −0.8 V vs SCE. The performance of this electro-Fenton reactor was assessed by tetracycline degradation in an aqueous solution. Experimental results showed the rotation of disk cathode resulted in the efficient production of H 2 O 2 without oxygen aeration, and excellent ability for degrading organic pollutants compared to the electro-Fenton system with fixed cathode. Tetracycline of 50 mg/L was degraded completely within 2 h with the addition of ferrous ion (1.0 mM). The chronoamperometry analysis was employed to investigate the oxygen diffusion on the rotating cathode. The results demonstrated that the diffusion coefficients of dissolved oxygen is 19.45 × 10 −5 cm 2 /s, which is greater than that reported in the literature. Further calculation indicated that oxygen is able to diffuse through the film on the rotating cathode within the contact time in each circle. This study proves that enhancement of oxygen diffusion on RDE is benefit for H 2 O 2 generation, thus provides a promising method for organic pollutants degradation by the combination of RDE with electro-Fenton reactor and offers a new insight on the oxygen transform process in this new system.
