The effects of Fe(III) and Cu(II) on the sorption of atrazine (AT) and prometryn (PY) on clay minerals were investigated both preloaded and in solution. For smectite , Fe(III) preloading greatly enhanced AT and PY sorption at pH 4.0 and 6.0 but diminished AT sorption at pH 8.0. Cu(II) preloading promoted AT and PY sorption under alkaline conditions but suppressed AT sorption at pH 4.0. The adverse effects were not obvious for PY. While for illite and kaolinite , Fe(III) and Cu(II) had little or promotion effects due to the lower contents of them in these two minerals. In the co-sorption studies, for smectite, AT sorption remained at pH 4.0 and increased at pH 6.0 and 8.0, while PY sorption was inhabited over the pH range of 4.0–8.0 in the presence of Fe(III). AT and PY sorption were not affected by Cu(II) except for PY at pH 8.0, in which case, the sorption was promoted. For illite and kaolinite , Fe(III) and Cu(II) generally enhanced AT and PY sorption.

Tunable electronic properties of supported Cu/CeO2 catalysts are critical for improving the active site activity in catalysis. In this contribution, we propose a surface engineering protocol that utilizes unique ascorbic acid (AA) properties to generate surface defects and modify the electronic properties of Cu–Ce catalysts. This approach relies on forming abundant (Ce3+-Ov) defective sites on the CeO2 surface synthesized with a Ce-benzene-tricarboxylate metal–organic framework (MOF) as a precursor through AA adsorption. Subsequently, Cu sites can be effectively anchored onto the generated Ce3+-Ov, exhibiting excellent electronic transfer between (Ce3+-Ov/Ce4+ ↔ Cu2+/Cu+) CuCe, resulting in highly active Cu+ with well-balanced Ce3+-Ov defects. A high fraction of Cu+ with Ce3+-Ov was dedicated to the presence of AA. The resultant Cu/AA-MOF-CeO2 catalyst demonstrated outstanding performance toward CO oxidation (90–95 °C), being far superior to that of the conventionally prepared Cu/MOF-CeO2 catalyst (110–115 °C). In-depth characterizations confirmed that the remarkable performance was considerably related to the enhanced Cu–Ce interaction, enriched Cu+ active sites, and balanced Ce3+-Ov defects. This work highlights the potential of the Cu/AA-MOF-CeO2 catalyst as a sustainable solution for low-temperature catalytic CO oxidation reaction.

Graphical In this paper, 2D MOF-Co, 2D MOF-Co/Cu, and 2D MOF-Co/Cu/Fe are designed and prepared using 1,4-benzendicarboxylic acid (1,4-BDC) as organic ligands. Their charge transfer, separation efficiency, and effects on photocatalytic CO 2 reduction are studied. The results show that 2D multimetallic MOF-Co/Cu/Fe has better photocatalytic CO 2 reduction activity, so it has higher research value and development prospect in the field of photocatalytic CO 2 reduction. In this study, 2D multimetallic MOFs combined with the advantages of 2D nanosheets, with the synergetic effect of multimetallic nodes, exhibited good photocatalytic activity for reduction of CO 2 . Herein, a 2D MOF-Co/Cu/Fe were successfully prepared via one-pot stirring of the solutions of multimetal salts and organic ligands at room temperature. Introduction of the second and third metal (Cu and Fe) into MOF-Co does not change the 2D morphology of MOFs, although it improved the photocatalytic CO 2 reduction performance by broadening the light absorption range of 2D MOF-Co, accelerating the separation efficiency and transfer rate of photogenerated carriers. Upon irradiation with full-spectrum light, the average CO yield of 2D MOF-Co/Cu/Fe achieved 17.06 µmol·g −1 ·h −1 , being about 1.8 and 1.2 times that of 2D MOF-Co and 2D MOF-Co/Cu. This work provides an insight into 2D multimetallic MOFs-based photocatalysts in catalytic CO 2 reduction.

In CO 2 electroreduction, mutative intermediates and the challenging C C coupling necessitate the spatial interplay between active sites and through dynamically optimizing configurations. Herein, we anchor ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)-bonded Cu x+ /Bi 3+ pair within UiO-66 for a spontaneous spatial-optimizing CO 2 -to-C 2 H 4 electroreduction. Ab initio molecular dynamic (AIMD) simulation visualizes that such metal pair adaptively interacts with intermediates. Density functional theory (DFT) elicits the componential synergy, in which an upshift d-band of Cu activates CO 2 being protonated into *COOH while Bi site stabilizes oxygenated dimers for deep hydrogenation. The dynamic feature of such pair affords large freedom for sorption and migration of various intermediates, which consequently bestows UiO-66-EDTA/CuBi a maximal FE C 2 H 4 of 47 % and a total current density over 100 mA cm −2 in the flow cell.

Regulating oxidation state of Cu-based chalcogenides catalysts during electrolysis is of great significance for efficient CO 2 electrochemical reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) to methanol, which still remains a dramatic challenge. Herein, we construct a heterogeneous Cu 3 VS 4 /CuS electrocatalyst (denoted as CuV x S), in which the in-situ growing Cu-S-V bonds avoid the accumulated electrons on oxidized Cu sites and inhibit the deep reduction of CuS to metallic Cu during electrolysis, maintaining stable and abundant reactive Cu + /Cu 2+ species to promote CO 2 RR performance to methanol. By this design, the CuV 0.1 S catalyst achieves an ultrahigh methanol selectivity of 79.8 %. In-situ FTIR measurement reveals that the synergistic effect of Cu + /Cu 2+ species and Cu-S-V bonding facilitates the *CO adsorption and the subsequent *CO hydrogenation process, which improve the generation of *CHO and *OCH 3 intermediates for enhanced methanol selectivity. This work provides a new insight into stabilizing high oxidation state of Cu-based electrocatalyst to maintain sufficient active sites for CO 2 RR.

Combining the bond-energy model and Debye theory, we generalized the Gibbs free energy model for Cu–Pt nanoparticles (NPs) by introducing a shape factor considering the shape effect. We studied the structural stability of the Cu–Pt NPs and plotted the corresponding composition-, shape- and size-dependent phase diagrams. It is shown that the Cu–Pt NPs can form alloyed structure in a large size range. But when the particle size continues to decrease, the NPs will form the core–shell structure due to surface segregation. Meanwhile, the composition segregation could make the atoms of less-content element to gather in the surface. The predictions from the present calculated phase diagrams are consistent with a series of experimental results in literatures. To further prove the efficiency of the phase diagrams, we synthesized the alloyed Cu–Pt NPs of 4–15 nm by a co-reduction method, which is in agreement with the predictions from the phase diagrams.

Electrocatalytic reduction of CO 2 affords a potential way to mitigate the greenhouse effect and fuel crisis. In this work, we compared highly-dispersed CuO nanocomposites and Cu–Cu 2 O nanocomposites which all derived from Cu x Al-LDH for CO 2 electrochemical reduction . The Cu–Cu 2 O based nanocomposites obtained through the restoration strategies still retain its layered structure, simultaneously increasing dual Cu–Cu 2 O active sites, which exhibit excellent performance in selective reduction of CO 2 to C 2 H 4 . The Cu 5 Al-ER obtained through in-situ electrochemical reduction is modified by bulk phase, which can regulate active species, increase surface active sites, enhance C–C coupling. Meanwhile, the electrochemical strategy offers numerous benefits, including gentle conditions, adjustable monitoring, exceptional efficiency and adaptability. We have confirmed that cost-effective Cu–Cu 2 O based nanocomposite derived from Cu 5 Al-LDH can effectively promote C–C coupling during electrochemical CO 2 conversion and improve FE C2H4 . The FE C2H4 of Cu 5 Al-ER reaches 36% at −1.2 V vs. RHE. And the current density reaches −172 mA·cm −2 at −1.6 V vs. RHE. The results showed that compared to Cu 5 Al-LDO, the FE C2H4 of Cu 5 Al-ER increased by 2.6 times. In addition, Cu 5 Al-ER exhibits excellent stability during the 12 hours CO 2 catalytic reduction process.

The unique ability of Cu + to enhance C-C coupling makes it important in the field of CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR) over Cu-based catalyst, while Cu + is very prone to deactivation. Hereby, we propose a simple and feasible stabilization strategy to stabilize Cu + species through reducing Cu-Mg-Al hydrotalcite by adding ascorbic acid, which owns stable product selectivity in a span of 6 h at −0.95 V vs.RHE. Characterization results show that the excellent stability is promoted by the heterostructure of Cu 2 O and hydrotalcite with retained Cu + species, which derives from Cu 2 O and slow down the rapid reduction of Cu + to Cu 0 .

The photocatalytic CO 2 reduction has the problems of low selectivity of single product. Here, the preparation of Cu modified tubular C 3 N 4 (CTN) was studied. The increase of the active site inhibits the recombination of electrons (e-) and holes (h + ) and improves the selectivity of CO 2 reduction products. Finally, the CO and CH 4 yields of 1.5 % CTN photocatalyst are 11.55 μmol·g −1 and 4.72 μmol·g −1 , respectively, which are 5 times higher than that of tubular C 3 N 4 photocatalyst. The selectivity of 2 % CTN to CH 4 is up to 68 %, indicating that the prepared CTN photocatalyst has high CO 2 reduction activity and CH 4 selectivity.

TiO 2 has low photocatalytic activity due to its easy recombination of photogenerated charges and low visible light utilization efficiency. This study utilized the keto-enol tautomerism principle of fructose in an alkaline environment to successfully obtain Cu 2 O/TiO 2 (CT), Cu 2 O/TiO 2 /Cu (CTC), and TiO 2 /Cu (TC) catalysts. As Cu(I) transformed into Cu(0), the bandgap narrowed, significantly enhancing visible light absorption. Photocatalytic tests showed that CT-0.15 exhibited the highest hydrogen production rate (279.53 μmol g −1 h −1 ), which was 25.18 times higher than that of TC-2. However, CTC-1 had the highest CO production rate (10.58 μmol g −1 h −1 ). Optoelectronic test revealed that CT-0.15 and CTC-1 had higher separation efficiency of photogenerated exciton. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicated that the change in the valence state of Cu influenced the reaction mechanism, with CT being favorable for the adsorption of H + in HER and CTC promoting the adsorption of CO 2 in carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR).

Graphical The mesostructured Cu/AlZnO-9 catalyst with 15 wt % Cu was prepared for the hydrogenation of CO 2 to methanol. The well mesostructure increased the exposed Cu surface area and CO 2 adsorption sites, which accelerated the CO 2 conversion, and the ZnO in catalyst increased the generation of methanol. In addition, the well mesostructure heightened the stability of supported Cu catalyst due to the high dispersion of Cu nanoparticles. In this work, the mesostructured Cu/AlZnO catalysts were prepared for the CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol. Experimental results showed that the weight ratio of Al 2 O 3 and ZnO affected the morphology of the mesoporous AlZnO supports and surface properties of the mesostructured Cu/AlZnO catalysts. The AlZnO-9 (the Al 2 O 3 mass within the AlZnO support was 90 wt%) with loose spongy porous structure and high surface area facilitated the Cu nanoparticle dispersion. Thus, the Cu/AlZnO-9 catalyst showed higher exposed Cu surface area ( S Cu ) and more exposed CO 2 adsorption sites, which accelerated the CO 2 conversion. Meanwhile, the ZnO added into catalysts increased the strength of surface basicity and the surface concentration of Zn species, which promoted the catalytic activity of CO 2 hydrogenation to methanol. In addition, the well mesostructure heightened the stability of supported Cu catalyst due to the high dispersion of Cu nanoparticles.

One-dimensional nanofibers can be transformed into hollow structures with larger specific surface area, which contributes to the enhancement of gas adsorption. We firstly fabricated Cu-doped In 2 O 3 (Cu-In 2 O 3 ) hollow nanofibers by electrospinning and calcination for detecting H 2 S. The experimental results show that the Cu doping concentration besides the operating temperature, gas concentration, and relative humidity can greatly affect the H 2 S sensing performance of the In 2 O 3 -based sensors. In particular, the responses of 6%Cu-In 2 O 3 hollow nanofibers are 350.7 and 4201.5 to 50 and 100 ppm H 2 S at 250 °C, which are over 20 and 140 times higher than those of pristine In 2 O 3 hollow nanofibers, respectively. Moreover, the corresponding sensor exhibits excellent selectivity and good reproducibility towards H 2 S, and the response of 6%Cu-In 2 O 3 is still 1.5 to 1 ppm H 2 S. Finally, the gas sensing mechanism of Cu-In2O3 hollow nanofibers is thoroughly discussed, along with the assistance of first-principles calculations. Both the formation of hollow structure and Cu doping contribute to provide more active sites, and meanwhile a little CuO can form p–n heterojunctions with In 2 O 3 and react with H 2 S, resulting in significant improvement of gas sensing performance. The Cu-In 2 O 3 hollow nanofibers can be tailored for practical application to selectively detect H 2 S at lower concentrations.
