Magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ) is broadly deemed as one of the most prospective solid-state hydrogen storage materials. However, its large-scale application is hindered by several drawbacks, including an excessive dehydrogenation temperature (>300 °C), sluggish kinetic behavior, and inevitable agglomeration and growth during cycling. To address these challenges, two-dimensional few-layered laminated titanium carbide catalyst (FL-Ti 3 C 2 T x ) was synthesized via LiF/HCl etching followed by liquid-phase ultrasonic exfoliation. These FL-Ti 3 C 2 T x nanosheets exhibit efficient catalytic activity for MgH 2 hydrogen storage. The incorporation of 5 wt% FL-Ti 3 C 2 T x significantly reduces the initial dehydrogenation temperature of MgH 2 from 325 °C to 199 °C, while enabling the dehydrogenated sample to reabsorb hydrogen at room temperature. The MgH 2 + 5 wt% FL-Ti 3 C 2 T x composite demonstrates remarkable kinetic performance, releasing 6.5 wt% H 2 within 8 min at 300 °C and uptaking 5.49 wt% H 2 within 1 min at 100 °C. Even after 50 cycles of consecutive dehydrogenation and rehydrogenation, the composite retained a hydrogen storage capacity of 6.90 wt%, corresponding to a 95.30 % capacity retention rate. Microstructure analysis and theoretical calculations reveal that the unique lamellar morphology of FL-Ti 3 C 2 T x not only provides abundant active sites and hydrogen diffusion paths, but also effectively suppresses the agglomeration and growth of Mg/MgH 2 matrix during the hydrogen absorption and desorption. More importantly, the in-situ formed Ti/TiH 2 functions as a “hydrogen pump” accelerating hydrogen diffusion, prolonging the Mg H bond length, and weakening the interaction between Mg and H. These factors synergistically enhance the absorption/desorption kinetics of MgH 2 .

The efficient treatment of uranium (U) is an important and challenging issue regarding radioactive wastes management. Adsorbent with high efficacy, low-cost is urgently needed for alleviating the contamination of U-containing wastewaters. To solve these issues, we report a series of phytic acid (PA) modified Zn-Al-Ti layered mixed metal oxides (Zn-Al-Ti LMO@PAs) in this work, which shows the adsorption capacity as high as ∼1486 mg/g and could be easily obtained through a facile post-modification method. The adsorption performance of Zn-Al-Ti LMO@PAs for U(VI) are carefully estimated through batch experiments. With the aid of batch experiments and various characterization techniques, PA in Zn-Al-Ti LMO@PAs is found to make the most contribution for the chelation of U(VI), which favors for the adsorption selectivity and capability. The Zn-Al-Ti LMO@PAs are potential cost-effective adsorbents to remove the U(VI) in wastewaters.

In recent years, Ti 3+ self-doped TiO 2 (B-TiO 2 ) exhibits great potential as a photocatalyst. In this work, Ti vapor-assisted annealing is first demonstrated for Ti 3+ doping and improving the visible absorption of TiO 2 . TEM results exhibit the formation of disordered layer, indicating the successful fabricating of B-TiO 2 . The absorption increase in TiO 2 caused by Ti vapor annealing reaches nearly 50% in the visible wavelength range. Benefiting from the absorption increase, the photocatalytic performance of TiO 2 after Ti vapor annealing increases by 60–70%. Surface modification of Ag onto B-TiO 2 is also carried out to further improve its optical property. Ag-modified Ti 3+ self-doped TiO 2 (B-TiO 2 @Ag) exhibits great visible photodegradation behavior to RhB. The RhB degradation rate reaches 97.76% after 60 min of visible light irradiation. Electrochemical performance tests demonstrate that as-prepared TiO 2 @Ag has lower resistance than W-TiO 2 . The results indicate that B-TiO 2 @Ag has great potential in solar photocatalytic degradation of pollutant.

The integration of ultrathin two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors with other conductive 2D materials to form hybrid electrocatalysts with abundant heterointerfaces can enhance the electrocatalytic activity by facilitating interfacial charge transfer. However, the hybrid electrocatalysts with weak interfacial bonding have limited effect on the electrocatalytic performance because the intrinsic activity of interfacial sites cannot be altered by weak interfacial interactions. As a proof-of-concept, we design ultrathin 2D–2D heterostructures with bridge-bonded Ni–O–Ti ligands based on single-layered Ti3C2Tx MXene and metal hydroxides, and further reveal the structure-activity correlation between interfacial bonding and electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction by combining theoretical and experimental studies. Density functional theory calculations reveal the modulation of the electronic structure of interfacial metal sites after the formation of bridged interfacial Ni–O–Ti bonding. Compared with the hydrogen-bond-linked heterostructure, the ultrathin 2D–2D heterostructure with bridge-bonded Ni–O–Ti ligands shows enhanced intrinsic activity and stability towards electrocatalytic oxygen evolution with a very low overpotential of 205 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and the long-term durability. This work provides a new understanding and approach for the design and development of 2D hybrid catalysts with highly efficient electrocatalytic activity.

O3-type NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 (NFM) is recognized as a highly promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries owing to its cost-effectiveness, substantial theoretical capacity, and facile synthesis. Nevertheless, this material suffers from rapid capacity decay caused by structural degradation and irreversible phase transitions at high voltages (> 4.0 V vs. Na + /Na). Herein, partial substitution of Fe 3+ sites with Ti 4+ in the transition metal layer was implemented. Systematic investigations via X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) reveal that Ti substitution effectively stabilizes the layered framework by suppressing detrimental phase transitions through enhanced structural pillar effects. The optimized NaNi 1/3 Fe 0.23 Mn 1/3 Ti 0.1 O 2 delivers a specific capacity of 144.1 mAh g −1 within 2.0–4.2 V at 0.1 C, demonstrating 71.3% capacity retention after 100 cycles at 1 C (130 mA g −1 ). This work establishes a viable strategy for enhancing structural stability in O3-type cathodes through selective cation substitution. Graphical

Efficient elimination of antibacterial activity of halogenated antibiotics by dehalogenation pretreatment is desired for a biochemical treatment process. In this study, crystalline cobalt phosphide nanosheet arrays on a Ti plate (C-CoP/Ti) are fabricated by a simple electrodeposition and phosphorization process. The crystalline structure greatly promotes atomic hydrogen (H*) generation. Moreover, the nanosheet arrays can provide abundant active sites and accelerate electron transfer and mass transport. As a result, the dehalogenation rate of florfenicol (FLO, an emerging organic pollutant) on C-CoP/Ti is 11.1, 2.97, and 13.6 times higher than that on amorphous CoP/Ti, Pd/Ti, and bare Ti, respectively. The C-CoP/Ti electrode achieves 97.4% dehalogenation of FLO (20 mg L–1) within 30 min at −1.2 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Nearly 100% of Cl and 20% of F are broken away within 120 min, showing the highest electrocatalytic defluorination efficiency reported so far. Both experimental results and theoretical calculations reveal that the dehalogenation of FLO on C-CoP/Ti is synergistically accomplished via direct reduction of electron transfer and indirect reduction of H*. This study develops a highly efficient non-noble metal electrode material for dehalogenation of halogenated organic compounds.

RuO 2 supported on rutile TiO 2 or SnO 2 has been proved extremely effective for catalyzing the oxidation of HCl into Cl 2 . The supports play a crucial role in the catalyst systems. In this work, Ti-Sn oxides with different Sn/(Sn + Ti) molar ratios (0–0.2) were synthesized by a facile co-precipitation method as supports. The corresponding Ru/Ti-Sn oxide catalysts were investigated in HCl catalytic oxidation and systematically characterized to elucidate the role of Ti-Sn oxide supports on the process. The diffraction, spectroscopy and microscopy results reveal the crystal and surface structures of supports and catalysts. Among all the RuO 2 /Ti 1-x Sn x O 2 catalysts, RuO 2 /Ti 0.97 Sn 0.03 O 2 exhibits the best catalytic activity of 2.6 g Cl 2 ·g cat -1 ·h −1 with only 0.5% Ru loading and excellent stability on stream. Differed from the previous understanding, Ti 0.8 Sn 0.2 O 2 support containing the most rutile phase shows unsatisfying performance. The excessive Sn content renders more crystal disorder and volatile substrate, inevitably lowering the dispersion and stabilization of RuO 2 active phase. However, moderate Sn addition induces well-dispersed SnO 2 and rutile TiO 2 film, facilitating the dispersion of RuO 2 phase on the support surface with more active oxygen species. A large number of oxygen vacancies on Ti 0.97 Sn 0.03 O 2 can act as an active oxygen reservoir and boost catalytic performance.

Fine particulate matter (PM) emitted from coal-fired power plants (CFPPs) has aroused widespread environmental and human health concerns. Cadmium (Cd), as one of the prime toxic air pollutants, which exists in fine PM intensifies its toxicity. In this research, three particle sizes of PM (PM 1 , PM 2.5 , and PM 10 ) at the outlet of electrostatic precipitator (ESP), along with feed coal, bottom ash, and ESP ash, were collected from a 300-MW pulverized CFPP. Results showed that Cd was more enriched in the fly ash than in bottom ash. With the PM diameter decreasing, the relative enrichment index (REI) value of Cd increases from 2.30 to 7.84. The concentration of Cd was found to be intimately related to Ti in the PM. Abundant Ti-rich particles were identified in the PM 1 , having quite different chemical compositions as compared to particles larger than 2.5 μm. The major processes governing the formation of Ti-rich particles included melting of silicate-bound Ti and heterogeneous condensation of gaseous Ti from the decomposition of organic-associated Ti in coal. The transformation behavior of Cd to PM in a coal combustion process was discussed based on its occurrence mode in coal, thermodynamic property, and the possible interactions with ash particle compositions. The retention of Cd (g) by Ti-rich particle were probably dominated by chemisorption at high temperature; at lower temperature, physical adsorption or condensation may be the primary mechanisms for capturing CdCl 2 (g).

Novel Ti/PbO 2 -Cr-PEDOT electrodes were prepared by electrodeposition for electrochemical degradation of phenolic wastewater. The electrodes were characterized by XRD, SEM-EDS, XPS, and FT-IR to study the crystalline, surface morphology, elements distribution, and microstructure of the electrodes. A flat and compact interface was obtained with Cr and PEDOT doping into β-PbO 2 plate by electrodeposition method. The linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were conducted to explore the electrochemical performance of the prepared electrodes. The Ti/PbO 2 -Cr-PEDOT electrode exhibited a higher oxygen evolution potential (OEP, 2.53 V vs SCE) and a lower charge transfer resistance compared with Ti/PbO 2 . Phenol degradation efficiency of 100% and TOC removal rate of 95.02% were achieved in the electrochemical degradation of phenol within 120 min. The optimal process parameters (phenol concentration = 1000 mg·L -1 , electrolyte concentration = 4.0 g·L -1 , current density = 15 mA·cm −2 and electrode distance = 3 cm) in the process of electrochemical oxidation of phenol wastewater were explored. Active species trapping experiments proved that ·OH radicals played an important role in the electrochemical system. Furthermore, the electrode also showed high activity for the degradation of other phenolic wastewaters such as phloroglucinol (η DEP = 100%), bisphenol A (η DEP = 97.17%) and p-chlorophenol (η DEP = 89.77%) within 60 min. A possible degradation pathway was proposed based on the intermediate products determined by HPCL. The Ti/PbO 2 -Cr-PEDOT electrode showed excellent stability with only 3% loss of degradation efficiency (η DEP = 96.95%) after recycling tests for 5 times. These results suggest that Ti/PbO 2 -Cr-PEDOT is a promising electrode for electrochemical degradation of phenolic wastewaters.

Electrocatalytic hydrodechlorination (ECH) has been proposed as a potential technology for the effective degradation of organochlorine contaminants. In this study, a nanoscale Pd/TiC catalyst with low resistance was dip-coated onto Ti, aiming to fabricate a stable Pd/TiC/Ti electrode with enhanced ECH reactivity for efficient dechlorination. Electrochemical techniques indicated that the Pd/TiC/Ti electrode had a larger electrochemically active surface area and more rapid interfacial charge transfer than the conventional Pd/C/Ti electrode. In a batch experiment, the dechlorination rate for ECH of 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid (2,4-DCBA, a model pollutant) by Pd/TiC/Ti was 1.3–14.5 times higher than those by Pd/C/Ti, Pd/MWCNTs/Ti, and Pd/MoS2/Ti, respectively. Scavenger experiments, ESR spin-trapping spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry clarified the intensified atomic H* generation by Pd/TiC/Ti. DFT calculations revealed that Pd/TiC/Ti had stronger binding ability with atomic H* (Eads: −2.89 eV vs. −2.44 eV) and 2,4-DCBA (Eads: −3.62 eV vs. −2.15 eV), respectively, when compared with Pd/C/Ti. As a result, enhanced generation of atomic H*, together with strengthened adsorption of atomic H* and 2,4-DCBA, would contribute to a faster ECH reaction. The Pd/TiC/Ti electrode retained its reactivity after 10 successive batch experiments (80 h), and showed high tolerance to the constituents in actual water matrices including lake water and river water. This study proposed a promising ECH electrode for the treatment of chlorinated organics in water matrices.

In this work, a template-free hydrothermal strategy has been developed to fabricate 3D hierarchical MoS 2 microflowers on macroporous Ti mesh (MoS 2 MF-Ti) as a binder-free electrode for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). It is found that the Ti mesh is able to provide an ideal platform for self-assembly of the MoS 2 nanosheets into the hierarchical microflowers. The as-prepared MoS 2 MF-Ti electrode is characteristic of meso/macro porous structures, abundant active edges and good conductivity. As a result, the MoS 2 MF-Ti demonstrates greatly enhanced electrocatalytic activity and stability toward HER due to its desirable structural features.

The photocatalytic efficiency of conventional blending photocatalytic membranes suffers a significant reduction due to effective photocatalyst embedded in membrane matrix. Therefore, in this study, inspired by the bioadhesive technology of polydopamine (pDA), a novel Ti doped bismuth oxyiodide (BiOI)-polydopamine (pDA)-coated cellulose acetate (CA) (Ti/BiOI-pDA/CA) photocatalytic nanocomposite membranes were successfully developed for effective removal of tetracycline (TC). The Ti/BiOI-pDA/CA nanocomposite membranes displayed very high photocatalytic activity toward TC (about 98% after 120 min) under visible light irradiation and superior photodegradation kinetics (k=0.03214 min −1 ). The removal rate of Ti/BiOI/-pDA/CA nanocomposite membranes under dynamic cyclic degradation system could be further improved, giving TC removal efficiency of 91% in 60min. Remarkably, the permeate flux, flux recovery ratio (FRR), reversible fouling (Rr), irreversible fouling (Rir) and the total fouling ratio (Rt) revealed the Ti/BiOI-pDA/CA nanocomposite membranes had excellent antifouling performance. In addition, the Ti/BiOI-pDA/CA nanocomposite membranes exhibited excellent stability and reusability. Therefore, this work gives insight into the effective removal of TC wastewater and has a great potential for new generation of high-performance photocatalytic membranes for practical wastewater treatment in the future.
