A nanostructured Fe 2 O 3 /CdZnS/ZnS composite film was constructed on EH40 steel using anodization, hydrothermal, and successive ionic layer absorption and reaction method. The film can inhibit the diffusion of dissolved oxygen to the substrate steel in aerobic seawater, and anodic dissolution of the substrate steel in D. vulgaris containing anaerobic seawater, respectively. The film can inactivate bacteria by producing active chlorine under light, which improves its anti-adhesion efficiency. The film prepared by 50 times of ZnS deposition reaches the highest anti-adhesion efficiency of 71.0 % and 63.3 % toward P. aeruginosa and D. vulgaris under dark, and 98.5 % and 96.0 % under light, respectively.

Novel, efficient and environmentally friendly approaches have been developed for the synthesis of 1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates by one-pot three-component domino reactions in the presence of a catalytic amount of γ-Fe 2 O 3 @SiO 2 /Ce(OTf) 3 in EtOH at ambient temperature. A total of 32 2,5-dihydro-1 H -1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates and 2-methyl-2,3-dihydro-1 H -1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates with enamine or imine structure of the heterocycle, respectively, were obtained in good yields by reacting substituted 1,2-phenylenediamine, β-carbonyl esters, and ethyl glyoxylate or ethyl pyruvate. One-pot reactions were successfully realized to form one new cycle and four new bonds (one C–C, two C–N, one C=C or two C–C, one C–N, one C=N). Furthermore, plausible mechanisms for the formation of 1,5-benzodiazepine-2,3-dicarboxylates have been proposed. The salient features of this reaction include short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, moderate to excellent yields, recyclability of the catalyst, and wide substrate scope.

Photocatalytic fuel cell (PFC) is a novel energy conversion device that can effectively convert light into chemical energy and then electrical energy, accompanied with the pollutant purification treatment by photocatalytic technology. In this study, the synergetic photocatalytic degradation of organic dye in anode and the reduction of heavy metal Cr(VI) in cathode are carried out in an improved dual-chamber PFC device with TiO 2 and core–shell structured Ag@Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles as photoanode and cathode materials , respectively. Among different materials, Ag@Fe 2 O 3 shows the highest catalytic activity to the reduction of Cr(VI) with an apparent kinetic constant of 0.058 min −1 , even much better than commercial Pt foil (0.027 min −1 ). From morphology and electrical characterizations, the excellent electrical conductivity of noble metal Ag and suitable conduction band positions between TiO 2 and Fe 2 O 3 lead to a rapid and directional transfer of photoinduced electrons, and the variable valence of Fe(II)/(III) in iron oxide facilitates continuous catalytic reduction of Cr(VI) to Cr(III). Moreover, the addition of H 2 O 2 into anode chamber can significantly accelerate the reactions and electricity output. The radical quenching tests prove that the existence of H 2 O 2 can efficiently increase the production of photoinduced carriers, and more oxidizing species (such as O 2 − and OH) can be produced from the reactions between H 2 O 2 and photoinduced holes or electrons.

High energy and efficient solar charging stations using electrochemical capacitors (ECs) are a promising portable power source for the future. In this work, two kinds of metal-organic framework (MOF) derivatives, NiO/Co 3 O 4 microcubes and Fe 2 O 3 microleaves, are prepared via thermal treatment and assembled into electrochemical capacitors, which deliver a relatively high specific energy density of 46 Wh kg −1 at 690 W kg −1 . In addition, a solar-charging power system consisting of the electrochemical capacitors and monocrystalline silicon plates is fabricated and a motor fan or 25 LEDs for 5 and 30 min, respectively, is powered. This work not only adds two novel materials to the growing categories of MOF-derived advanced materials, but also successfully achieves an efficient solar-ECs system for the first time based on all MOF derivatives, which has a certain reference for developing efficient solar-charge systems.

Seeking an effective strategy to develop inexpensive and highly stable photocatalyst materials for dye degradation is of great significance to resolve the global environmental problems caused by dye abuse. Herein, we have reported the environmental-friendly synthesis of exceptionally efficient and highly sustainable hematite nanoparticles (α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs) using Punica granatum seed extract biomolecules. The morphology and phase purity of the synthesized α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs were executed through a series of characterization techniques. FESEM and TEM analysis exhibited that the synthesized α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs were irregular-shaped with an average size of 26.53 nm, while the BET surface area of nanoparticles was estimated to be 31.52 m 2 /g with an average pore diameter of 5.54 nm. α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs exhibited typical ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. The oxidation states of elements in α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs were confirmed through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, while the charge on α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs was found to be −10.6 mV. The as-prepared α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs were utilized in solar-light driven photocatalytic degradation of anionic Congo red (CR) and Bromophenol blue (BPB) dye. Experimental results indicated the remarkable photocatalytic activity of α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs, and approximately 89.42% of CR and 87.96% of BPB was degraded in 240 min under sunlight irradiation at ambient conditions. The photocatalytic degradation experiments were also performed under different reaction conditions which followed the pseudo-first-order kinetics. The presence of reactive species generated in the reaction system liable for the CR and BPB degradation were corroborated through radical quenching experiments and further confirmed by EPR analysis. The excellent photocatalytic potential of α-Fe 2 O 3 NPs suggested that the synthesized nanoparticles could effectually be applied to remove organic dyes from the wastewater.

CuO-based catalysts are usually used for CO oxidation owing to their low cost and excellent catalytic activities. In this study, a series of metal oxide (La2O3, Fe2O3, PrO2, Sm2O3, and MnO2)-doped CuO-based catalysts with mesoporous Ce0.8Zr0.2O2support were simply prepared by the incipient impregnation method and used directly as catalysts for CO catalytic oxidation. These mesoporous catalysts were systematically characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), N2physisorption, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersed spectroscopy (EDS) mapping, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and H2temperature programmed reduction (H2-TPR). It was found that the CuO and the dopants were highly dispersed among the mesoporous framework via the incipient impregnation method, and the strong metal framework interaction had been formed. The effects of the types of the dopants and the loading amounts of the dopants on the low-temperature catalytic performances were carefully studied. It was concluded that doped transition metal oxides could regulate the oxygen mobility and reduction ability of catalysts, further improving the catalytic activity. It was also found that the high dispersion of rare earth metal oxides (PrO2, Sm2O3) was able to prevent the thermal sintering and aggregation of CuO-based catalysts during the process of calcination. In addition, their presence also evidently improved the reducibility and significantly reduced the particle size of the CuO active sites for CO oxidation. The results demonstrated that the 15CuO-3Fe2O3/M-Ce80Zr20 catalyst with 3 wt. % of Fe2O3showed the best low-temperature catalytic activity toward CO oxidation. Overall, the present Fe2O3-doped CuO-based catalysts with mesoporous nanocrystalline Ce0.8Zr0.2O2solid solution as support were considered a promising series of catalysts for low-temperature CO oxidation.Keywords:CuO-based catalyst;Fe2O3dopant;mesoporous Ce0.8Zr0.2O2solid solution;low-temperature catalytic activity;CO oxidation

Aldehyde-functionalized α-Fe 2 O 3 /graphitic carbon nitride (α-Fe 2 O 3 -DBD/g-C 3 N 4 ) was successfully synthesized through Schiff-based reaction between aromatic aldehydes in 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde and NH 2 groups in urea. The 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde around α-Fe 2 O 3 were advantageous to in situ growth of graphitic carbon nitride on α-Fe 2 O 3 to form the contact interface by chemical bonds and beneficial to the electron transfer , leading to the formation of Z-scheme photocatalytic system. The α-Fe 2 O 3 -DBD/g-C 3 N 4 photocatalysts exhibited a remarkable improvement in the degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) compared with bulk g-C 3 N 4 . The enhanced photocatalytic activity was attributed to the enhanced charge separation efficiency and higher redox potential . This study presents a simple and efficient method to construct all-solid-state Z-scheme photocatalytic system with the formation of tight contact interface and nonmetal materials (aromatic rings) as electron mediators for the removal of complex pollutants.

In this study, a novel strategy was proposed for synthesizing dual single-atom Ce-Ti catalysts supported on γ-Fe 2 O 3 via ball milling and calcination. Compared to γ-Fe 2 O 3 and single-atom Ce/γ-Fe 2 O 3 and Ti/γ-Fe 2 O 3 catalysts, the Ce-Ti/γ-Fe 2 O 3 catalyst exhibits superior NO conversion rates and significantly enhanced tolerance to H 2 O and SO 2 at 200–240 °C. These advancements are attributed to the synergistic interactions between Ce and Ti, which enhance redox properties, increase Lewis acid site density, and facilitate the Langmuir-Hinshelwood reaction pathway. In-situ DRIFTS and density functional theory (DFT) analyses revealed the mechanistic role of surface-active oxygen species and intermediate formation in promoting the SCR reaction. The findings provide valuable mechanistic insights and establish a scalable approach for the development of high-performance, environmentally friendly catalysts for industrial NO x removal.

The problems of heavy metal and dye contamination in wastewater urgently requires green, efficient, and convenient removal strategy. In this paper, a new type of γ-Fe 2 O 3 /CeO 2 /cellulose nanofibril (CNF) composite film (CNFMONP film) adsorbent based on nanocellulose was facilely prepared which is green, easy to be recycled, and has high-efficiency adsorption performance. The proposed CNFMONP films exhibited rough surface, excellent mechanical properties, and stability performance, as well as satisfying adsorption removal performance for Pb 2+ and Cu 2+ , with removal rates of 77.9% and 69.6%, respectively. In addition, a removal rate of up to 95.4% for the dye methylene blue (MB) was also achieved under UV illumination. The adsorption kinetics showed that the CNFMONP films were mainly chemisorbed for heavy metals. Besides, isotherm analysis indicated that monolayer adsorption is the adsorption behavior of the proposed film types adsorbent for heavy metals and dyes. Furthermore, the CNFMONP films still have excellent adsorption affinity after five rounds of cycles, with high adsorption efficiency of 75.0% for Pb 2+ in complex environment. Therefore, environmentally friendly CNFMONP films with excellent stabilization and adsorption properties were simply prepared, which may provide a highly efficient way for recyclable and multi adsorption of heavy metals and dyes.

Increasing the oxygen vacancy (Ov) content and inducing lattice oxygen activation are critical for enhancing the oxidation performance of transition metal oxides. However, precisely regulating these properties remains a significant challenge. In this study, a stepwise pyrolysis method was employed on a colloidal complex formed by citric acid coordinated with Fe(NO 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 O to synthesize Fe 2 O 3 -X catalysts comprising a mixture of α- and γ-Fe 2 O 3 characterized by abundant surface oxygen vacancies and activated lattice oxygen. The resulting Fe 2 O 3 -1 presented excellent low-temperature H 2 S selective catalytic oxidation (H 2 S-SCO) performance, achieving selective oxidation of H 2 S at 130°C with removal efficiency and sulfur selectivity exceeding 95 % and 85 %, respectively, within 60 h. Characterization results show that the γ-Fe 2 O 3 induced by citric acid forms a crystal interface with the α-Fe 2 O 3 . At the interface, the asymmetrically coordinated lattice oxygen is more likely to be released from the catalyst, thereby enhancing the oxidation ability of the catalyst. Furthermore, the synthesis method effectively modulates the catalyst’s surface basicity, resulting in an optimal distribution of basic sites that mitigates catalyst poisoning and deactivation. This study presents a straightforward approach for synthesizing Fe 2 O 3 catalysts with enhanced oxidation ability, offering valuable insights for developing more efficient transition metal catalysts.

Nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) is a promising material for pollution remediation, but its practical application is limited by the lack of scaling up preparation method and the high cost of raw materials. In this study, the ball-milling method is used to prepare nanoscale iron oxide prior to high temperature H 2 -reduction, producing ball-milled and then H 2 -reduced nZVI ( BM−RE ZVI). It is demonstrated the strained iron oxide crystals after ball-milling increased the specific surface area, while the high-temperature H 2 -reduction process decreased iron vacancy. In this way, the ball-milling strain and the high-temperature H 2 -reduction together facilitated the exposure of (200) Fe planes (i.e. [100] Fe direction) of the obtained BM−RE ZVI, thereby enhancing reactivity. Compared to commercial nZVI (C-nZVI), BM−RE ZVI was characterized by abundant surface Fe 0 , more reactive crystal planes, and fewer iron vacancies, enabling flexible electron transfer. The reaction rate constants normalized with Fe 0 content ( k Fe 0 ) for removing aqueous Pb, Cr, trichloroethylene (TCE), and florfenicol (FF) increased by 3.3, 2.6, 10.5, and 11.9 times, respectively, as compared to C-nZVI, and the fastest 100 % FF removal was achieved in a real groundwater sample. In addition to its environmental friendliness, BM−RE ZVI was also economically viable according to the environmental friendliness and techno-economic analyses, with an estimated price of 27 k-32 k ¥ ton −1 . These findings provide a new approach for preparing economical and eco-friendly nZVI, which will boost its application in practical pollution remediation

Treating real electroplating wastewater is challenging due to the coexistence of organic contaminants and heavy metal ions, which collectively increase toxicity and pose serious risks to human and environmental health. In this study, the simultaneous removal of a typical organic pollutant (benzodiacetone) and a heavy metal ion (Cr(VI)) from electroplating effluent was investigated using a heterogeneous electro-Fenton process catalyzed by a novel Ce-Fe 2 O 3 /Al 2 O 3 material. Comprehensive characterization and theoretical calculations confirmed the excellent catalytic performance of the synthesized catalyst. Under near-neutral conditions, the electro-Fenton system achieved removal efficiencies of 99.1 % for benzodiacetone and 98.8 % for Cr(VI). The mechanism of simultaneous degradation was explored, revealing that Ce doping enhanced Fe redox cycling by lowering the binding energy between H 2 O 2 and Fe and facilitating electron transfer from Fe (III) to Fe (II). Additionally, Ce doping improved the stability and reusability of the catalyst. And the Ce could also extend the lifetime and reusability of the catalyst. This work developed a highly efficient heterogeneous catalyst in the electro-Fenton process and demonstrated that the Ce-Fe 2 O 3 /Al 2 O 3 catalyst had a superior application potential in synergic removal of Cr(VI) and benzodiacetone area.
