Co/Fe co-doped porous graphite carbon (Co/Fe-PGC) nanocomposites were successfully prepared by one-step pyrolysis with CoFe-MOF, in which the Co/Fe nanoparticles were uniformly coated on porous graphite carbon derived from MOF. It was used to microelectrolysis-Fenton degrade rhodamine B through the main active substance ∙OH. The color and TOC removal rate of 100 mg/L rhodamine B reached 99.41% and 64.6%, respectively, for 30 min. Rhodamine B was degraded into small molecular organic acids, alcohols and lipids by N-demethylation and chromophore cleavage, until it was finally degraded into CO 2 and H 2 O, and no new colored organics were produced in the degradation process. The degradation process follows the first-order reaction kinetics, and its rate constant is much higher than that of the previous similar studies. The excellent catalytic performance of Co/Fe-PGC catalyst is attributed to the coupling effect of micro-electrolysis and Fenton reaction, and the acceleration of cobalt on electron transport and Fe 2+ reduction. Co 0 /Fe 0 undergoes galvanic corrosion to generate Co 2+ /Fe 2+ and H 2 O 2 , and then these products undergo Fenton reaction to generate Co 3+ /Fe 3+ and ∙OH, thus forming a circulating system of Co 3+ /Fe 3+ and Co 2+ /Fe 2+ , enhancing the activation of H 2 O 2 and ensuring the efficient degradation of RhB.

Herein, S-doped Co-Fe hybrid films with unique 3D porous microsphere arrays stacked by ultrathin nanoflakes directly grown on nickel foam (Co-Fe-S NFs@MS/NF) are synthesized via a single-step co-electrodeposition strategy. The synergistic effects among Fe, S and Co enable superior oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalytic activity in basic environments. Impressively, this hybrid material can achieve further enhanced OER catalytic performance with surface self-assembly through in-situ electrochemical oxidation activation in both gentle alkaline (GA: 1.0 M KOH at 298 K) and industrial alkaline (IA: 30 wt.% KOH at 353 K) water electrolysis conditions. The transition processes are revealed in detail regarding the chemical, structural, and catalytic properties of the catalysts served in the GA and IA conditions. The pristine quasi-amorphous Co-Fe-S is found to partially transform into crystallized Co(Fe)OOH in the GA condition, while it remains amorphous nature in the IA condition. The enhanced OER activity is attributed to the formation of active Co(Fe)OOH species with massively proliferated specific surface area, optimized electronic structure, and accelerated kinetics. The activated Co-Fe-S NFs@MS/NF exhibits excellent OER activity, achieving 10 and 500 mA cm −2 at ultralow potentials of 1.453 (iR corrected) and 1.517 V with outstanding durability in the GA and IA conditions, respectively. For full water splitting, the assembled two-electrode system based on the Co-Fe-S NFs@MS/NF anode and a Co-S based cathode affords voltages of only 1.518 and 1.685 V to robustly deliver 10 and 500 mA cm −2 in GA and IA conditions over 200 h, respectively.

In this study, a sulfate radical-advanced oxidation process (SR-AOP) was proposed by utilizing a bimetallic Co/Fe metal-organic frameworks/cellulose nanofiber membrane (Co/Fe bi-MOFs/CNF) as a catalyst for TBBPA degradation. Sulfate radicals (SO 4 –) and hydroxyl radicals (OH · ) were generated through the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by Co/Fe bi-MOFs/CNF. Co/Fe bi-MOFs/CNF was prepared by a facile solvothermal method and vacuum filtration. CNF acted as a natural substrates material to relieve the agglomeration of loaded MOFs . Additionally the composite membranes was easily separated from the reaction solution. The properties of the composite materials and the main factors that influenced TBBPA degradation were elucidated in detail, along with the TBBPA degradation intermediates, recyclability, and TBBPA degradation pathway. Almost 100 % of TBBPA was degraded within 30 min under optimal conditions, and the rate constant was determined to be 0.764 min −1 . Furthermore, the degradation rate of the composite membrane was 60 % after 4 cycles.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have attracted much interest in electrocatalysis as promising catalysts in recent years. However, it still remains a challenge to directly use MOF-based materials as bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting. Herein, a hierarchical Co,Fe-MOF-74/Co/carbon cloth (CC) three-layer hybrid electrode is synthesized by a simple electrochemical deposition technology with subsequent solvothermal treatment. Electrochemical performance investigations show that the as-constructed Co,Fe-MOF-74/Co/CC electrode exhibits impressive electrocatalytic activity for full water splitting, which only requires a low overpotential of 226 mV@20 mA cm–2 for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and 94 mV@–10 mA cm–2 for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), respectively. Employing the as-constructed electrode as the anode and cathode in a two-electrode setup simultaneously, only 1.65 V of the voltage is needed to deliver the current density of 20 mA cm–2. The above excellent electrochemical performances should be attributed to the specific architecture, the synergistic effect of the Co and Fe species, and the superhydrophilic surface of the catalyst. More importantly, further investigations uncover that metal hydroxides and oxyhydroxides produced in situ during electrochemical tests are the veritable active species, which promote the high catalytic activity of the present catalyst.

Owing to the high demand for clean and renewable energy technologies, several studies have focused on developing economically feasible, highly effective, and stable non-precious electrocatalysts for promoting the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This development has stimulated an expansion of investigative quests and indicated the importance of advancing electrocatalytic research in this field. Through a facile and efficient method, Ni nanoparticles were uniformly embedded into nanoporous carbon nanorods (Ni-NCN), which are subsequently electrodeposited on CoFe-layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanosheets to produce highly efficient Ni-NCN/CoFe-LDH composites used for OER. The composite exhibited excellent catalytic activity toward OER owing to its low overpotential (ƞ10 mA = 280 mV), small Tafel slope (42 mV dec −1 ), and excellent durability. The Ni-NCN/CoFe-LDH catalyst exhibited higher OER activity owing to its uniformly dispersed Ni nanoparticles, large specific surface area, enhanced electron transport, and synergistic effect of multiple composites. Additionally, the enhanced synergistic effect of Ni-NCN promoted higher OER performance compared with Ni-undoped carbon nanorod/LDH, indicating that the Ni dopant and LDH significantly contributed to the overall OER performance. The synergistic effect of multiple composites significantly contributed to the excellent OER performance, indicating their potential as OER catalyst.

Metal ion doping is an efficient method to achieve high photocatalytic performance of semiconductors. However, the current synthetic methods by using inorganic salts as doped sources in the precursor reaction system might suffer from ion waste and second pollution. Herein, we developed a novel method by employing electrospun nanofibers as ion reservoir to release metal ions for the synthesis of ion-doped semiconductors with high photocatalytic activity . As demonstrated, Co/Fe co-doped BiOCl photocatalyst (Co/Fe-BOC) was facilely prepared in the presence of CoFe 2 O 4 nanofibers as Co and Fe ion reservoir via a simple solvothermal method . Compared with BiOCl, the resulted Co/Fe-BOC shows increased specific surface area, visible light response as well as separation and transportation efficiencies of photogenerated carriers. Thus, the Co/Fe-BOC exhibits significantly enhanced visible light photocatalytic activity to degrade 99.4% rhodamine B (RhB) within 4 min. This new doping approach not only avoids the ion waste and pollution during the reaction process but also facilitates the separation of the photocatalyst. Moreover, the CoFe 2 O 4 nanofibers could be repeatedly used as ion reservoir to prepare high-performance Co/Fe-BOC. This nanofiber-based ion doping approach provides a novel, universal and promising insight to obtain doped semiconductors with high photocatalytic activity.

Graphical Linked in to lignin : 4-Alkylphenol is produced selectively over a magnetic Co 1 –Fe 0.1 @NC catalyst from real lignin oil as feedstock, which is obtained by a “lignin-first” strategy from raw biomass. The incorporation of Fe attenuates the adsorption of 4-alkylphenol to the catalyst, which inhibits the further hydrogenation of 4-alkylphenol to 4-alkylcyclohexanol. Lignin valorization to produce high-value chemicals selectively is an enormous challenge in biorefinery. In this study, 4-alkylphenol, formed by breaking the robust C aryl −OCH 3 bonds solely with the retention of other structures in lignin-derived methoxylalkylphenols, was produced selectively over a Co 1 –Fe 0.1 @NC catalyst from real lignin oil as feedstock, which was obtained by a “lignin-first” strategy from either birch or cornstalk. A yield of 64.7 or 88.3 mol % of 4-propylphenol was obtained if birch lignin oil or eugenol was used as the substrate, respectively. The catalysts were characterized by using methods that include Brunauer–Emmett–Teller measurements, XRD, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and temperature-programmed desorption with synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry. The results of catalyst characterization and comparison experiments indicated that CoN x was the main active phase for demethoxylation and hydrogenation, and the incorporation of Fe weakens the adsorption of 4-propylphenol to the catalyst, which inhibits the excessive hydrogenation of 4-propylphenol. This work shows the potential to produce high-value-added 4-alkylphenol from renewable raw biomass.

Abstract Bimetallic Au 3 M (M = Ni, Co, Fe) nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized by reducing a mixture of Au 3+ and metal cations (Ni 2+ , Co 2+ , Fe 3+ ) by butyllithium in the presence of oleylamine. Au 3 M NPs were then deposited onto a commercial SiO 2 support. The Au 3 M/SiO 2 samples were not particularly active in the catalytic reduction of p -nitrophenol unless they were converted into Au–MO

Microbial fuel cell (MFC), simultaneously degrading organic pollutants and harvesting electricity, suffers from a sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on cathode. The catalysts for Pt substitution are crucial to enhance the ORR performance and power output. Thus, a Co and Fe co-doped carbon derived from ZIF-67 (Co/Fe-NC) is prepared, which is proved to have excellent electrochemical properties. When the catalyst Co/Fe-NC is equipped in microbial fuel cell, the maximum power density of 1831 ± 57 mW m −2 is achieved, which is 13.5 % higher than that of Fe@Co-NC and 49.3 % higher than that of Co-NC. Moreover, the electrochemical tests show that Co/Fe-NC has a smaller charge transfer resistance and a higher exchange current density, which implies the faster kinetics of ORR. The enhanced performance of Co/Fe-NC can be attributed to the rougher rhombic dodecahedral interface, larger surface area, various types of nitrogen species, critical roles of cobalt and iron species, both high graphitization and defects. All these characteristics are responsible for the significant increase in ORR activity and power output. This work designs and compares different catalysts derived from iron-involved ZIF-67, and demonstrates a superior ORR electrocatalyst of Co/Fe-NC, which can be a potential alternative to Pt in the MFC practical application.

Photothermal catalytic CO 2 reduction is an attractive way to alleviate the current energy crisis, but it is important to prepare catalysts with efficient catalytic capacity. In this work, Prussian blue analogs were firstly prepared, and then calcined to obtain porous transition metal (Ni, Co, Fe) oxides (TMOs). The metal composition of catalysts has great influences on their structures and catalytic properties. Among them, NCF-TMO catalyst shows excellent photothermal catalytic performance, and can produce 2.9 mmol g -1 h -1 CO and 1.6 mmol g -1 h -1 mmol CH 4 at low CO 2 and H 2 concentrations. For the NCF-TMO, its superior catalytic performance mainly benefitted from two reasons: (1) The construction of heterojunction between NiO, Co 3 O 4 and Fe 2 O 3 , which promotes the efficient dynamic processes of charge carriers; (2) The formation of abundant surface reactive active sites facilitates the efficient conversion of CO 2 molecules. This study offers a bright direction for the resource utilization of CO 2 .

A trimetallic selenide electrocatalyst (Co, Fe, Ni)Se2 supported on nickel foam (NF) has been successfully synthesized for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and urea oxidation reaction (UOR). The catalyst was fabricated through a two-step strategy involving the formation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) precursors followed by a selenization reaction. The optimized (Co, Fe, Ni)Se2/NF-3:1 exhibited remarkable OER activity with an overpotential as low as 170 mV to achieve 10 mA cm-2, along with excellent stability over 1000 cycles. Its superior UOR performance with even lower overpotential further demonstrates promise for urea-assisted energy-saving hydrogen production. The enhanced electrocatalytic performance originates from the synergistic electronic modulation between Co, Fe, and Ni, the rough surface morphology facilitating mass and charge transport, and the highly conductive NF substrate enabling efficient exposure of active sites. This work provides valuable insights into the design of efficient multimetallic selenide electrocatalysts for sustainable electrochemical energy conversion.

Surface defective or heterojunction sites of catalysts generally afford remarkable catalytic activity thanks to their high-surface-energy. Regularly-generating multiple defective sites on the surface of a catalyst is exceedingly promising in many reactions. In this study, we report an unexpected Co/Fe–Co planar hybrid composite nanosheet with serried surface defects including surface biphasic junction sites or defective holes. A facile thermal-induced process was applied to trigger the generation of defective sites on planar Co/Fe–Co hydroxides. Through a controlled thermal process, massive serried CoO nanocrystals were in situ dissolved out of the surface of cobalt hydroxide, while defective surface holes were formed on the Fe-doped Co(OH)2 nanosheets under a prolonged thermal procedure. The morphology and microscale structure of the resulting Co/Fe–Co hybrid 2-dimensional (2D) composites were systematically examined by virtue of various characterization techniques. As expected, the obtained surface defective Co/Fe–Co planar composites showed obviously enhanced catalytic activity in the Fenton-like reaction. Based on a catalytic study, we proved that the CoO nanocrystals densely-distributed on thinlayer Co(OH)2. Uniformly-introduced Fe heteroatoms in the inter-structure of Co(OH)2, along with the formed surface defective holes on Fe–Co hybrid composites, are synergistically responsible for increased catalytic removal efficiency of MB in the presence of peroxomonosulfate.
