Mixed culture fermentation with non- Saccharomyces yeasts and Saccharomyces cerevisiae as multi-starters has more advantages than spontaneous fermentation, and wine products with distinctive and pleasant aromas can fulfill the diverse demands of consumers. This study was carried out to illuminate the effect of sequential inoculation of indigenous Candida railenensis and S. cerevisiae on alcoholic fermentation behavior and chemical and aromatic characteristics of Vidal blanc icewine. During the mixed culture fermentation, C. railenensis was present in the initial and middle stages but was absent after 14 days. The results of basic chemical parameters showed that the glycerol content in the mixed culture-fermented icewine was higher than that of the pure fermented icewine, but the acetic acid content was the opposite. In terms of volatile aroma compounds, C. railenensis in the mixed culture fermentation reduced some metabolites such as lower alcohols, 1-hexanol, 3-methylthiopropanol, and their unpleasant notes and increased the production of some desired volatile aroma compounds such as benzaldehyde, β-damascenone, 2-furanmethanol, and 5-methyl furfural associated with rose, honey, nut, and caramel characteristics. Furthermore, C. railenensis also changed the sensory performance of icewine by participating in the fermentation of S. cerevisiae . These findings suggest that C. railenensis with positive enological properties has the ability to be used in icewine production, which has never been reported before.

In this study, the solubility of isophthalic acid (IPA) and m-toluic acid (m-TA) in eight monobasic alcohols, methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, iso-propanol, 1-butanol, iso-butanol, tert-butanol, and 2-butanol is measured under 101.3 kPa by the method of laser dynamics. The experimental temperature range is 294.35–360.75 K. The measured data showed that the solubility of IPA and m-toluic acid increased with the increase of temperature in the measured temperature range. At the same temperature, the solubility of m-toluic acid in the same pure solvent is higher than that of IPA. The solubility of IPA and m-toluic acid in eight solvents decreased with the increase of the number of carbon atoms of the solvent. At the same temperature, the solubility ratio of m-toluic acid to IPA in iso-butanol is the highest in the same solvent, and the ratio was greater than 70, making it the best solvent for separating IPA and m-toluic acid. The Apelblat model, the Buchowski–Ksiazczak λh model, and the modified nonrandom two-liquid activity coefficient model were used to correlate the experimental data, and the calculated solubility was in good agreement with the measured result. The calculated solubilities were in good fit with the measured results. The thermodynamic properties were calculated, and the main contributor of the standard molar Gibbs energy of IPA and m-toluic acid in eight alcohols is enthalpy, about 55.40 to 82.86%.

It is of great significance to develop the highly active, durable and inexpensive oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalysts for fuel cells and metal-air batteries . Nitrogen-doped carbon nanotube (NCNTs) was considered to be one of the most significant non-noble metal ORR electrocatalysts, but its catalytic activity has some shortcomings due to its unfavorable ORR intermediates adsorption characteristics. Herein, we report a new kind of nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes, which have filled with Fe 3 C nanowires (NCNTs@Fe 3 C NWs), working as a stable and effective ORR catalyst. The half-wave potential of the obtained catalyst in a 0.1 M KOH solution is 0.88 V, which is significantly higher than the pristine NCNTs (0.79 V) and the commercial Pt/C (0.85 V). Compared with NCNTs, the improvement in ORR activity of NCNTs@Fe 3 C NWs can be attributed to the strain effect on the outermost carbon layer due to the high filling of Fe 3 C NWs. Most importantly, NCNTs@Fe 3 C NWs shows higher durability and better methanol tolerance than the commercial Pt/C catalyst. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation shows that the tensile strain can optimize the binding energy of ORR intermediates to a certain extent. This work provides new research ideas for the rational design of high-efficiency carbon-based ORR electrocatalysts through the direction of strain engineering.

External mass transfer performance of micropacked bed reactors (μPBRs) with Pd/Al2O3/nickel foam catalysts is investigated by the hydrogenation of α-methylstyrene (AMS). The external mass transfer limitation region for AMS hydrogenation can be determined by means of the apparent activation energy and internal effectiveness factor. Parametric studies for external mass transfer are conducted by varying temperatures, operating pressures, liquid viscosities, gas and liquid superficial velocities, and pore diameters of foam packing. The external volumetric mass transfer coefficients [(ka)OV] of μPBRs with the Pd/Al2O3/nickel foam range from 0.06 to 0.71 s–1. An empirical correlation of (ka)OV is developed. Based on the gas–liquid–solid process analysis, the external mass transfer of μPBRs with the Pd/Al2O3/nickel foam is limited by liquid–solid mass transfer under the experimental conditions. Moreover, μPBRs with the Pd/Al2O3/nickel foam exhibit the best energy efficiency in comparison with that of other multiphase reactors.

Efficiently selective catalytic conversion of biomass into biofuels and high-value chemicals using robust and porous catalysts is of great significance for valorization of renewable carbon resources. With respect to this, to reduce the supply dependence on natural oils, heterogeneous catalysis provides the opportunity for versatile anethole (AN) synthesis from bio-derived 4′-methoxypropiophenone (4-MOPP) via the one-pot cascade reactions of catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) followed by dehydration, using an alcohol hydrogen donor and a Lewis/Brønsted acid catalyst. Herein, a sustainable and green strategy for catalytic upgrading of 4-MOPP to AN was developed via the cascade CTH-dehydration process, which was remarkably promoted by polymeric organophosphate unconventional MOFs-hafnium nanohybrids (PDVP-Hf) prepared via a simple solvothermal method. Interestingly, Brønsted/Lewis acidity, Lewis basicity, and hydrophobicity of PDVP-Hf could be effectively regulated by simply adjusting the composite components, among which PDVP-Hf-3 having an amorphous and porous inorganic-organic framework structure (with mesopores centered at 6.52 nm), an enhanced acidity of a suitable B/L molar ratio with lower basicity, and a strong hydrophobicity (water contact angle of 113°), was demonstrated to be efficient for selective conversion of 4-MOPP to AN with a maximum yield of 98.9% using 2-pentanol as hydrogen donor. Moreover, this developed catalytic system exhibited broad substrate generality, and could be employed for reductive upgrading of various carbonyl compounds to alcohols, or further coupled with dehydration to afford olefins. The catalyst synergistic roles of L acid-base couple sites (Hf 4+ -O 2− ) and B acid species (-OH) contributed to its pronounced performance, while high thermostability and robust hydrophobicity of PDVP-Hf-3 endowed its superior reusability, with no significant decline in reactivity for five consecutive recycles. The involved catalytic mechanisms and reaction pathways were explicitly elucidated by control experiments and theoretical calculations. This work sheds light on the appropriate design of unconventional MOF-polymer nanohybrids by combining both advantages for enhanced biomass upgrading via tough cascade reactions.

Tartrazine preferred in food and textile industries, but excessive consumption threats human health. Due to toxicity, non-biodegradability, and trace accumulation in the food chains, Hg 2+ has attracted people's attention. Thus, it is important to detect tartrazine and Hg 2+ with sensitivity way. Using VB 2 and citrate as precursors, yellow-green fluorescent carbon dots were prepared by hydrothermal method . The N-CDs were purified by dialysis, thin layer chromatography and chromatographic column. Excellent linear ranges of 0.25–5 μM and 5–50 μM of tartrazine were obtained with low detection limits 34.98 nM, while good linear ranges of 0.25–5 μM and 10–50 μM of Hg 2+ with low detection limits 29.64 nM, respectively. In addition, the quenching mechanisms of targets to the fluorescent of N-CDs were illuminated. Furthermore, the nanoprobe was efficiently applied to determine the content of tartrazine in carbonated drink, fruit jelly and sugar samples, and Hg 2+ in tap water, lake water, and river water samples.

Colorant tartrazine is widely used in the food industry, but its long-term and excessive consumption is harmful to human health. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a sensitive detection method for tartrazine. Blue fluorescent carbon dots with L-arginine and o-phenylenediamine as precursors, namely L-Arg/oPD-CDs, were prepared via the hydrothermal method. Then, L-Arg/oPD-CDs were further purified by dialysis, thin layer chromatography and column chromatography. A dual-mode nanosensor based on fluorescent and UV absorption was successfully developed. Excellent linear ranges of 0–5 μM and 10–50 μM were obtained with a low detection limit of 42.3 nM based on fluorescence. A good linear range of 0–50 μM was obtained with a low detection limit of 130.15 nM based on UV absorption. The quenching mechanism of tartrazine towards L-Arg/oPD-CDs fluorescence was the inner filter effect. In addition, a dual-mode nanosensor was used for tartrazine determination in millet, maize flour, carbonated drink, and sugar samples. This study provides new insight into the detection of tartrazine by applying a dual-mode nanosensor.

With a high energy density, lithium–sulfur batteries (LSB) are regarded as one of the promising next-generation energy storage systems. However, many challenges hinder the practical applications of LSB, such as the dendrite formations/parasitic reactions on the Li metal anode and the “shuttle effect” of lithium polysulfides of the LSB cathode. Herein, a novel diluted medium-concentrated electrolyte (DMCE) is developed by adding 1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl ether (TTE) into a dual salt medium-concentrated electrolyte (MCE) consisting of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI)–lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI)/tetrahydrofuran (THF)–dipropyl ether (DPE). The optimized DMCE electrolyte is capable of protecting the Li metal anode and suppresses the dissolution of polysulfides and the “shuttle effect”, delivering a high coulombic efficiency (CE) of Li plating–stripping up to 99.6% even at a low concentration of Li salt (1.0–2.0 m ). Impressively, compared with the cells cycled in the MCE electrolyte, the Li S cells with the DMCE-2.0 m electrolyte have delivered an enhanced initial capacity of 682 mAh g −1 with an excellent capacity retention of 92% for 500 cycles. This strategy of using fluorinated ether as diluent solvent in a medium-concentrated electrolyte can accelerate the commercialization of LSB.

Raman spectroscopy is widely used in the identification of substances. Raman spectra contain molecular information from various components and interference from noise and instruments. Therefore, using Raman spectroscopy to identify components is still challenging, especially for substances with high similarity. In this study, a class of highly similar products (methanol and ethanol) and a multicomponent mixture of propanol and water were tested using a portable Raman spectrometer. They are divided into 11 categories according to the volume fraction ratio. A total of 5,060 groups of Raman spectrum data were obtained, constituting the data set of this study. The deep neural network structure adopted in this study is based on ResNet architecture, on which the SE module in the attention mechanism is added, which increases the weight of some spectral features and achieves significant performance improvement. Finally, SE-ResNet achieves a recall of 0.95, a precision rate of 0.95, a Micro-F1 of 0.95, and an accuracy rate of 99.20%.

The large-scale deployment of non-aqueous amine solution for carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) capture is mainly limited by its high viscosity, even insoluble substances in saturated solution, which may result in equipment fouling and pipeline blockage. To avoid this problem, the polyamine 1,5-diamino-2-methyl-pentane (DA2MP) was screened as the main absorbent to ensure the high absorption load. While 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) was used as the regulator to reduce the viscosity and eliminate insoluble substances, which dissolved in n-propanol (PrOH) to from the novel non-aqueous absorbent for CO 2 capture. The CO 2 absorption load of the novel absorbent was 0.95 mol·mol −1 , and the viscosity of saturated solution was only 15.00 mPa·s, remarkably lower than that of the solution without AMP regulation. The solution maintained 97% of its initial CO 2 absorption capacity after fourth regeneration cycle. The regulation mechanism was investigated using 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and quantum chemical calculations. It was proved that a strong and dense hydrogen bond network between DA2MP-carbamates was formed due to the self-deprotonation process, leading to insoluble products in the saturated DA2MP/PrOH solution. Through AMP regulation, there was another type of DA2MP-carbamates deprotonated by AMP formed in the solution with less hydrogen bond network, which could further react with PrOH to produce alkyl carbonates, achieving the elimination of insoluble products and reducing viscosity. Overall, the total regeneration energy consumption was 1.86 GJ·ton −1 CO 2 , only 50.27% of that of the benchmark monoethanolamine (MEA)-based solution, which would be a promising candidate for CO 2 capture.

The solubility of 2′,4′-dihydroxyacetophenone (2′,4′-DHAP) in 10 monosolvents (methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, n-butanol, isobutanol, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, and benzene) and two binary solvents (ethanol + ethyl acetate and n-propanol + ethyl acetate) was determined using a gravimetric method at 101.3 kPa from 293.15 to 333.15 K. The experimental solubility was demonstrated to increase with the increasing temperature. The solubility of 2′,4′-DHAP is the highest in pure isopropanol, and the two binary solvents present a solubilizing effect on the solute. Furthermore, six thermodynamic models were employed to fit the solid–liquid equilibrium data, and the correlation results manifested that the modified Apelblat model had minimum ARD values of less than 1%. Finally, the KAT-LSER model was employed to analyze the solvent effect at 298.15 K. The results show that the contribution of the four interaction types α, β, π*, and δH account for 15.84%, 15.30%, 18.33%, and 50.53% of the total interaction force, respectively, and the solvent–solvent interaction represented by δH is the dominant factor affecting the solubility of 2′,4′-DHAP.

Catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis (CTH) has emerged as a sustainable and carbon-neutral biorefinery process due to the decrease in the carbon footprint and high atom and energy efficiency. Herein, heteropoly acids (HPAs) as green catalysts were used for the CTH of Kraft lignin (KL) into lignin oil under mild conditions. It is found that all the types of HPAs, Pd/C, H-donor solvent and reaction temperature affected significantly the conversion of Kraft lignin. SiW12 and PW12, respectively, afforded 95.0% and 83.8% KL conversion in isopropanol with Pd/C at 190 °C for 5 h. However, the degradation of eucalyptus Kraft lignin (EKL) provided phenolic monomers with the highest yield of 42.6% using SiW12 and Pd/C. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation showed that SiW12 and PW12 in isopropanol are more likely to be close to lignin compared to n-propanol. The relative average molecular weight of the obtained lignin oil ranges from 100 Da to 700 Da, including phenolic monomers, dimers and trimers. The lignin monomer products are mainly composed of guaiacols and syringols with 0 to 3 carbon side chains. The simultaneous depolymerization and deoxygenation of KL during CTH led to a high-boiling organic fraction, analyzed with a Fourier transform-ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometer (FT-ICR MS) equipped with an electrospray negative ion source (ESI−), maintaining highly aromatic structures and having lower O/C and higher H/C ratios compared to initial lignin. This work exhibits a prospective application of the CTH for the conversion of technical lignin to chemicals and biofuels.
